Love Means... No Onanising

Dear Lmno,

Picture researcher for a French book publishing house, I am contacting you to request your kind authorization to publish your photograph of Alan Turing's statue in a book and to ask you if possible a hi-res file of it. May I kindly ask you to contact me at m_c.audet@ymail.com?

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,

M-C Audet

Comment

I hope you will consider my note to TreveX as mere prudence and certainly free of ill-will. My sincere apologies if you feel it was offensive in any way; I tried to be as discreet as I could.

I am at the moment interested in the article we've been discussing, but I am trying to narrow my work focus at Wikipedia. I want to take this up as a project, but I am still deciding how to divide up my time. Thing is, the article isn't exactly what I thought it was at first glance. I actually will have to gear up and read these laws. My main interest would be at the general "Pseudo-photograph" article. Given the recent court cases, I'm surprised there's not more on it.

Sorry you think Wikipedia stinks. If you just accept that everything must be taken with a grain of salt, it actually becomes kinda fun. And there's not much else that can be taken at face value except actual published research. It's not perfect, but for some of us, it is a learning adventure in which no politics are implied. You're free to hate it, but I'd hope you would accept my friendship, depite my being involved with this "useless piece of crap". Yea it sucks, but then again, when compared to perfection, a lot of stuff we take for granted does.

Lot's of things can be biased, such as at the LGBT or whatever international thing. I added some of the material from NAMBLA after reading your userpage. There are people, such as myself, that will take things at face value, look at the evidence, and decide from there, and defend what's right to the top. In a way though, the system allows people like you to come in and point out the errors that you cited (and many ppl do!), and then they get looked at and improved. The system works at least a little...

I could go on, but I'm probably skirting the end of your patience. Thanks for your time. --DanielCD 20:41, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Semi-Pro

It was meant to indicate that he was a semi-professional backyard wrestler who returns a single hit on google, back to his own website. I didn't feel that minor semi-professional athletes in minor sports warranted their own articles. Not my leg 00:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Severe Tire Damage

Yeah, you are missing something. Severe Tire Damage is, for the most part, a live album. So, for the most part, it has no mew material on it. TMBG don't consider it an "album" per se, but rather lump it wth their EPs and compilations. You've got a good eye, though. Thanks for noticing it was left out. I'd better move it to the right section in the discography. —User:ACupOfCoffee@ 15:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Reversion of seminal lesbian separatist

Please don't take offense with my reversion of this edit, where you reintroduced seminal lesbian separatist. Note that seminal may confusingly suggest semen. The Rod (☎ Smith) 18:48, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Disambiguation

"why do you think substituting united kingdom for british is disambiguation??? grrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

Answer: Because British is a disambiguation page and United Kingdom is not. If you think United Kingdom is not the correct page for content relevant to this link, then please be bold and select a different page with content, but don't revert the link to point to a disambig page. --Russ Blau (talk) 20:48, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi Lmno. Can you provide a citation for this edit? We should probably also clarify where that stuff's illegal. Thanks, JayW 02:13, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Image:2004-10-09 Huskisson monument.jpg

Hi, I noticed you uploaded a picture of the Huskinsson monument on the William Huskisson page. Unfortunately there appears to be no copyright information or... nahhh, only kidding. I'm contacting you because the picture interested me. The picture just looks like a railway track in the middle of nowhere. It was only when I looked at the enlarged image that I noticed the monument was even there! Why is this monument there? My only guess is that's where he died and the railway station has since been knocked down, but that seems unlikely? Could you by any chance enlighted me please and thankyou?--Crestville 16:02, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Ha ha, thanks for getting back to me about that! And within the decade too! Yeah, if I remeber correctly, I was interested because the monument just seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, but you've perfectly explained why that is. It does seem a shame that no-one can get to it anymore. To be honest, I'm sure I've seen some contemporary illustrations of the accident and the location looked much more grand, but I suppose if they don't stop there anymore there's no need. Poor old Husskinson and his forgotten monument. --Crestville 12:14, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:AcornComputersLtdLogo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:AcornComputersLtdLogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 04:16, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Cambridge Consultants

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Cambridge Consultants, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Light2021 (talk) 09:01, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ian Campbell Dunn

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Ian Campbell Dunn, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

• It appears to be a clear copyright infringement of https://web.archive.org/web/20000829111859/http://www.sbu.ac.uk:80/stafflag/iandunn.html. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

  If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
