Replaceable fair use Image:SteveBeshear 190x266.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:SteveBeshear 190x266.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Tom (talk - email) 02:02, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Image uploads
editPlease do not upload images taken from the web, claiming that you created them yourself. This is considered a copyright violation and the images are likely to be deleted. Passportguy (talk) 13:07, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Easy way to add references
editI saw your note on the earthquake page. There's a really easy way to add references. If you click on my preferences, then the gadgets tab, you'll see a check box for refTools. Check that, then when you're editing, you can click a little button at the top of your edit box that says cite. It brings up a nice little form that will create a cite tag for you. --Elliskev 23:19, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2008 Los Angeles earthquake
editHi Rorry1. I just want to say, I am really impressed with your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2008 Los Angeles earthquake. Keep up the good work, wiki warrior! --I'm an Editorofthewiki[citation needed] 01:25, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'm impressed as well. Apparently, the admin who kept the article was too, since you were cited as the reason he kept it. Good job; keep up the amazing work! --haha169 (talk) 22:13, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

The pic for the quake
editHeya. Noted this image you uploaded for the quake from yesterday. I'm originally from Yorba Linda, which store did you shoot this in? (Note, I promise I won't tell the store! I know some don't like to have photos taken of the insides....) --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:21, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Request reason:
I was blocked, not sure why. I was just starting a straw poll about convention naming of large US cities. Would someone please explain this banned user thing.
Decline reason:
Well, how would we (those of us admins who don't have checkuser, anyway, which is the great many of us) know what your IP is based on your say-so. Furthermore, this naming convention thing is an obsession of Saindon's. — Daniel Case (talk) 01:51, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

- Note from blocking admin. This is a sock of banned user Ericsaindon2 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). ·:· Will Beback ·:· 00:59, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I dont know how one could come to that conclusion. There is no proof. I was just editing specific pages.Rorry1 (talk) 01:01, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I read through the list of puppets by this banned user, and you made a serious mistake. First of all, this "banned" user has a list of IP addresses that begin with 69, 75, and 76. My IP begins with 98.Rorry1 (talk) 01:09, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I dont know how one could come to that conclusion. There is no proof. I was just editing specific pages.Rorry1 (talk) 01:01, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'm so pissed off right now, its not even funny. I did NOTHING wrong, and everything I have done in my months of being here has been erased, my main page is marked with this tag that is totally false, this is just making me physically ill to see what you people are doing. I haven't done anything, and you people have given me NOTHING to work with here. You just tell me "well, we dont have the ability to check your IP's, so instead of dealing with that, we just assume you guily." What kind of crap is that? Rorry1 (talk) 02:53, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
- I think the admin that blocked me may be mad because I deleted an unsourced entry that he insisted be in the article at El Segundo, California. See here [2]. I deleted this entry that had no sources to it (as good editors should), and he has proceeded to reinsert the invalid information twice. Because I defied him, I think it made him mad.

Request reason:
When did this user you are accusing me of being do this? It seems his obsession was with Anaheim Hills, Anaheim, California. I can point out several users who have requested naming conventions. [[3]]. Thats just one example. I am not this user, from what I see based on what that user has in their talk page, I don't even edit similar articles. So what, I made a request for name convention. I have come across nearly 50 people who have made similar requests. Are they all socks of this "person" too? And, I will tell you the reason I did this. I did this because I went through articles, and saw a lot of debate over the subject of naming, especially on the Los Angeles article, so I simply opened a straw poll to see how people would feel about changing the largest 50 cities in the US to a common name. I dont see how this has to deal with any of the users edits. Anaheim hills is not even a city, it is in the city of Anaheim, so this straw poll wouldn't have even affected the Anaheim hills. And, as the user above said, this user had an obsession over one article, an article I dont even edit. And this is my IP address, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/98.149.127.13 in case you were wondering. I don't see how you can say "well, we have no way of proving it, but since an admin says it is right, it must be."
Decline reason:
Both your edit history and editing pattern make it clear that this is a sock of Ericsaindon2. If you really feel the need to contribute to a wiki, perhaps you should try another venue where you have not already burned your bridges behind you. — Kralizec! (talk) 12:12, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

The article Anaheim Hills Elementary School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- no claim of notability is present in article; high schools are considered to be inherently notable, but lower level schools than that are not inherently notable by current consensus.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Kevin (talk) 22:33, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
