USS Tang (SS-563)
editI warned you. MrBlondNYC 00:41, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Roy A.A. 00:57, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
- I have unblocked you because you may otherwise be a productive contributor and this most recent was a single vandalism. Note that any further vandalism will result in a longer block. —Centrx→talk • 06:29, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Vandalism
editEdits like this are unacceptable. Unhelpful or "joke" contributions are a complete waste of your time, so don't bother. Further blocks can be arranged if you continue to vandalise the encyclopedia. -/- Warren 20:58, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
- Come on, admins. Clearly, there's a problem here. MrBlondNYC 22:23, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, there is. And that problem is the idea of Black Cop not existing on Wikipedia! --Stukov 05:38, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
Warning
editWelcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to Wikipedia_talk:Wikipediholic, are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the hard work of others. Thanks. A link to the abusive edit-in-question. (aeropagitica) (talk) 22:36, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
- You are already on record as a vandal regardless of my reports (your contribution of "Notable Niggers" to the Denzel Washington page was what stood out to me). And now you are on record as a suspected sockpuppet. Your contributions are good for the most part but you must contain whatever urges you have to vandalize and make personal attacks like calling people "pathetic". Please be very careful from now on. -MrBlondNYC 23:58, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Response to "Racism"
editCalling an African-American a "Nigger" is a compliment, eh? Why don't go up to Jerome Iginla and pay him a "compliment"? You won't because it takes some bravery to do something so stupid. MrBlondNYC 02:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- I said go up to him and say that. But it's cool another vandalism report for you. Especially, after you said "It won't happen again". Why? MrBlondNYC 02:33, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
Bucketsofg✐ 02:41, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- I feel very deceived by MrBlondNYC! It seems he is trying to trick me into doing things to get me banned. I still think he's being racist as I am white. --Stukov 05:25, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
Black Cop AfD
editFirst of all, I didn't nominate it. A user named User:Mirrorstone did. He or she just blanked the whole page because they didn't like the article so I advised them how to use AfD. He or she should be starting the discussion. Second, since the discussion hasn't started yet there's nothing to debate yet. Third, you are supposed to disclose that you are the writer of the article when you vote for your own article in AfD. Fourth, weren't you blocked for writing racist comments? You wanna keep going with the personal attacks? MrBlondNYC 20:15, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- Calling me a racist just because I don't like your racist comments about black people is a personal attack. Oh and you admit that you're a racist? That's good. Off to the personal attack page I go MrBlondNYC 20:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- And making racist comments will NOT be tolerated here. Not by me, not by anyone. MrBlondNYC 20:27, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- I give you one more chance to resolve this. Did I trick you into making racist comments? Am I a racist because I reported you for making racist comments? Oh and you don't even know what race I am. MrBlondNYC 20:31, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- Then I suggest you erase those untrue comments because I don't find that funny. Again, if you have a problem with the AfD, talk to Mirrorstone, not me. MrBlondNYC 20:36, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- I give you one more chance to resolve this. Did I trick you into making racist comments? Am I a racist because I reported you for making racist comments? Oh and you don't even know what race I am. MrBlondNYC 20:31, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Red Wings captain Lidstrom ?
editThe Red Wings coach Mike Babcock, has denied the team has chosen Lidstrom as the captain. Further more Babcock says the team won't name a captain until after training camp. Also the Red Wings offical website doesn't say Lidstrom is captain. Be patient, no doubt he'll be named (later). GoodDay 20:27, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Joenlai.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Joenlai.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Unspecified source for Image:Raycroft bruinspicture.png
editThanks for uploading Image:Raycroft bruinspicture.png. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu Badali 04:15, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

editNHL player pictures
editI have a question about your edits to the size of the pictures displayed in the infoboxes of NHL players. Is there any reason why you are changing them, especially inconsistently? It seems every one you change is to a different size (200, 133, 120). Why? --Muéro 02:27, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the answer. Also, you were right about my browser's cache. Even after I updated the Pronger photo myself, I was seeing the old, stretched-out image until I forced a full refresh. --Muéro 02:37, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Can you explain this upload?
editI have reverted the image to the previous version; am I missing something, or did you upload a picture of a cartoon character? -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 03:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Deleted page "CUSERT"
editA page you created, or image you uploaded, CUSERT, has been deleted in accordance with our deletion policy. In particular, it meets the one or more criteria for speedy deletion; the relevant criterion is:
- Unremarkable people, groups, companies and web content. An article about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject.
Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable notability guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content; it will be deleted again and may be protected from re-creation. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article. If you have any questions, please contact an administrator for assistance. Thank you – Gurch 03:16, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

editRegarding this edit... Please avoid using abusive edit summaries as per Wikipedia:Civility and Wikipedia:No personal attacks. Thanks and happy editing. --Abu Badali 12:03, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

re
editImage:Antropov.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Antropov.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Abu Badali 00:57, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Ice Hockey
editStukov, you may want to know that the WikiProject_Ice_Hockey's guideline you cited on Image:Antropov.jpg (and other images) was against policy and I changed it. With all due respect, I'm reverting your edition (again). Let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, --Abu Badali 18:29, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Disputes
editStukov, when adding the {{Replaceable fair use disputed}} tag to an image, you have to explain why do you believe that particular image is not replaceable in the image's talk page. If you don't do so, the tag will be eventually remove or simply ignored. Best regards,

- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

The Arnold Drinking Game and Personal Attacks
editI've deleted the article The Arnold Drinking Game from wikipedia because it's unverifiable and unsourced. Please see WP:NFT before creating any more articles.
I've also reverted your contribution to User:Abu badali. Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption.

Bryan McCabe
edit- Bryan McCabe's play was not "controversial." It was a mistake. I watched the game, and McCabe gave it away on his second attempt at an own-goal. However, you need to keep a long-term perspective in mind. At the end of his career, this one goal will, in all likelihood, not matter.
- You have no right to tell me (or anyone else) to "get the fuck out" of an article. You do not own articles. You've already been blocked four times by four different admins for a mix of incivility and vandalism, so be aware that you're on thin ice.-Wafulz 02:48, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:Queensfroshleaders.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Queensfroshleaders.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 23:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC).

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Chenindy.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Chenindy.jpg. 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.
