Not that you haven't heard before...

edit

Hey, I'm sure you've heard this before, but you may want to give up on the whole gastric bypass thing. Keeping it in your userpage is probably a good idea, or you can put it in a subpage. If you want advice, I'd say edit a little more and get the feel of what kind of stuff goes in articles, especially regarding neutrality, original research, and focusing on encyclopedic content rather than sort of instruction manuals. I did some of the same thing; I did irreparable damage to Dynasty Warriors, so much that I couldn't even go in and clean it out once I was more experienced. Once you get more experienced, you could try re-writing the article fromm an informative viewpoint rather than an instruction guide. Once you have a little more experience, writing an article will be much easier. Everyone learns at their own pace, but I've been editing for about 6 months under this name (and about 6 months before that anonymously) and I've still never written one. Just give it some time and try again later. Karwynn (talk) 16:14, 2 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Possible spam?

edit

Hi, I just wanted to inform you of Wikipedia's spam policy. You may notice in the edit history of your user page, DragonflySixtyseven removed a good bit of content from your user page, including your desire to sell supplements on Wikipedia and the gastrc bypass diet information. While doing so without first dropping you a note was probably not the best idea, he's right that that sort of content is considered promotional spam. I recommend you also remove this material, since asking people to contact you at customer support is considered spamming as well. If you don't, it will likely be removed by someone else. YOu are welcome to discuss the gastric bypass diet on your user page as long as you do so in a way that makes it clear that it is your opinion rather than fact and refrain from promoting certain products and brandnames. Let me know if you have any questions. Karwynn (talk) 16:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I know exactly what you mean, it took me awhile to really get used to Wikipedia ongoings myself, I too got carried away sometimes. Thanks for removing the content, and don't worry that this is oging to reflect poorly on you and everything. Keep this guideline in mind; everyone makes mistakes, so don't let it deter you from editing assertively in the future. Happy editing! Karwynn (talk) 18:51, 3 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Phew

I'm glad to see that you're not upset about my trimming your userpage; I would have left a note, but I was very busy dealing with a sudden wave of Colbert-related vandalism.

I'm pleased to see that you're a genuine, productive contributor, and I hope you enjoy your participation in the project. DS 04:06, 4 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Weight training exercises

I have reduced the size of the images, which has reduced the page weight from over 1 MB to under 500 kB. This should take just over a minute to download on a full-speed 56kb dialup connection, which I think is quite acceptable. However it may take longer for you if your line quality is poor.

You claim this image has "no rights reserved" but the site you got it from is clearly labeled "all rights reserved". If you have any "proof" to back your claim please provide it as described on Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission, otherwise I'm afraid we have to delete it (a fair use claim might also be a possibility). --Sherool (talk) 16:00, 27 August 2006 (UTC) Image:02171.jpgReply

Hi, well it would probably be better to make a "release" page on each of the various sites themselves. A bit more convincing than having freeimages.verticalag.com claim out of the blue that contet from for example www.bubbajunk.com can be used freely. At the very least you should make it a lot clearer what the relationship between all those sites are, and who actualy hold the copyright, otherwise it kinda looks like freeimages.verticalag.com is simply "stealing" the images. --Sherool (talk) 18:17, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Well you would not need to release the whole site naturaly, you could make a page on the relevant domain that spesify that these and only these images are free use, while the rest of the site and it's content is fully copyright protected or something like that. It might also be an idea to drop an e-mail to "permissions AT wikimedia DOT org" with a list of images from your sites that may be used freely along with whatever information you think is nessesary to identify you as the owner (it's intended to record permission obtained from 3. parties, but this kind of situation might fit too since people can find the images on copyrihted web-pages). Also the more relevant info you put on the image page here the better (how was the image originaly obtained etc) to asure there are no misunderstandings down the road. --Sherool (talk) 18:57, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello! Do you know what, if anything, is happening with the WikiProject Bodybuilding project? I have been unable to contact Glen (either on Wikipedia or via e-mail), and many of the people who are listed as participants are no longer on Wikipedia.

Conflict of interest

edit

  If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
    and you must always:
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Business' FAQ. For more details about what constitutes a conflict of interest, please see Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. Thank you. --Herby talk thyme 12:19, 24 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Sleepingswan-Before-after.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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

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 15:14, 16 March 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. The Anome (talk) 15:14, 16 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Cdl1.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Cdl1.gif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.
