editThanks for the coffee! lol. Absolutely no need to fret, though, you didn't appear belligerent at all, and I can certainly see why one might take the position you did about that article, at least at first glance. The article itself does need to be updated, and the AFD might bring attention to that fact and ultimately improve the article. Thanks for keeping the AFD conversation civil, even as we disagreed! — Hunter Kahn 22:20, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:The Triple Helix.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:The Triple Helix.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).
PLEASE NOTE:
- I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions. If you have a question, place a {{helpme}} template, along with your question, beneath this message.
- I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
- If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
- To opt out of these bot messages, add
{{bots|deny=DASHBot}}
to your talk page. - If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.
Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:45, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the message! Yes, I am aware that The Triple Helix has changed its logo very recently. However, the replacement logo is currently on Commons, which means it will be deleted soon... :/ What should we do? Ragettho (talk) 16:39, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- Simple - edit the article and use the image on WP, instead of the commons one. Once the file is in use, then DashBot will kill the orphaned notice off the file page within an hour or so. Ronhjones (Talk) 22:12, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Not uptight
editMy statement here was not aimed at you. It was aimed at anyone who felt the need to carry the debate on. You asked a fair question and got an appropriate answer. The comments after Edokter's were leading toward a full on argument (of which there are many all over Wikipedia about this contentious subject), and I wanted to shut it down before it got out of hand. fredgandt 12:39, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
