Please refrain from inserting unsourced and scurrilous gossip about living persons into Wikipedia articles. If you persist, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please consult WP:BIO and WP:LIVING for further information on our biography policies. FCYTravis 20:00, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Sigh. I suppose that since you've back down, I'll have to wait before I do it again. Or, perhaps, the person who originally did it will change it back for me. I do hope so. Censorship doesn't suit the Wikipedia at all.OkamiItto 02:43, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- It's not censorship to remove unsourced derogatory and defamatory material attacking a person. Blogs and Web forums are not considered reliable sources. Please examine our reliable sourcing policy along with the policies on biographies of living people I linked to above. These policies are non-negotiable. If the information is added again by anyone without simultaneous citation of verifiable and reliable sources, the user responsible will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Consider this your fair warning. FCYTravis 03:09, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Then I suggest you remove the entire article, considering there is no verified or cited information presented. To the best of my knowledge, what was being displayed before was indeed factual, and would only be defamatory or derogatory from someone with a very limited world view.OkamiItto 03:13, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- If you wish, you may nominate the article for deletion on those grounds. "The best of your knowledge" is not a reliable source, and the subject of the article objected to the information through the OTRS reporting system as being irrelevant, unsourced and defamatory. Given that it was all three of the above, I removed it per WP:LIVING. FCYTravis 03:25, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Deleting image
editDo not remove the image again; it is perfectly fitting to the article. Your NPOV stance is weak at best. Perhaps it is unfortunate that the man caught on fire, but he attained his goal of gaining maximum media attention. Duke53 | Talk 16:14, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Anti America.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Anti America.jpg. 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:
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. 08:04, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
editSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 20:18, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Questionable usage of warning template used on User talk:216.128.226.221
editShouldn't the warning template you used on 216.128.226.221's talk page be {{subst:uw-nor1}}
for adding original research to the article "Savin' Me"? I ask this because I cannot see any recent vandalism to any other article that the user hasn't already been warned for. Lightsup55 ( T | C ) 04:03, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
- Ugh, sorry, I was just assuming that the previous warnings added would have been regarded as piling up, leading to the one I used. Feel free to change, if you want. OkamiItto (talk) 05:27, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
