The show itself: they said something like "Even if your comments are deleted, we'll still be able to read them, so go ahead [without fear, etc.]..." -Liberty Miller 02:07, 16 August 2005 (UTC) p.s. A Template header! Now that's clever! -Liberty 16 August 2005

License tagging for Image:File properties windows xp 1.png

Thanks for uploading Image:File properties windows xp 1.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 12:07, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:File properties windows xp 1.png

Thanks for uploading Image:File properties windows xp 1.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 12:34, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Update, 25 October 2007 : qft, from the "bot" talk page:

Bot malfunctioning According to the "bot generated" comment at Talk:Common_menus_in_Microsoft_Windows, "Rationales must be provided for each use of an image". A rational WAS provided on the image. I referred anyone who cares to my comments on the Talk page on the image. Now the image is deleted, the rational is deleted, and my comments are deleted. So I guess using a bot for things that need discussion isn't such a good idea? (Or perhaps this is a real person and not a bot?) Please consider undeleting the relevant image, image page, image talk page, and deletion log. Thanks. - Libertas 22:29, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Binary prefix

Thanks for your recent edit at Binary prefix; some of the changes do improve the flow. However, your assertion about "computing" contexts always using powers of two is inaccurate, consider storage devices (hard disks, floppy disks...), clock speeds, and data speeds ("1 kbps" = 1000 b/s). In fact, apart from RAM and some places in an OSes, there is no place where binary prefixes are always used. Could you fix your edit about "non-computing contexts" etc.? I'll do it myself if I get the time later. Thanks, Shreevatsa (talk) 15:42, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Actually I thought your recent edit detracted from the original so I reverted it. In particular, I also think characterizing the current set of binary prefixes as anything associated with "fundamental" ignores their close association withe decimal numbers. From a binary perspective, there is nothing fundamental about 2^10N where N=1,2,3 ... I go further than Shreevatsa and suggest there is no significant support of binary prefixes in any language nor in any significant computer architecture. They came into existence as a short hand in publications and then got confused when the UIs adopted them. Lets not have an edit war and see if we can work something out at the talk page Tom94022 (talk) 20:32, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

To Liberty Miller- [Regarding Tom's comment above and at his changes:] obviously anyone who writes "there is no significant support of binary prefixes in any language nor in any significant computer architecture" doesn't know enough about the subject to be writing about it in the first place. Needless to say Tom's revert was reverted back to your version Liberty Miller because your edit improves the article and has been tweaked only slightly since then.
