Tribe
Hello Tribe and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
Dock boggs
editI noticed you've got a Dock Boggs page and a Dock boggs page. I assume since you've blanked the one w/ the lower case boggs, that it was a typo. It is listed in the Orphaned Pages list, so I've marked it for deletion... --VikÞor 07:14, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Yes...I didn't know how to get rid of Dock boggs once I created it with an obvious typo. Thanks for helping to get rid of it. --Tribe 14:56, Aug 21, 2004 (UTC)
Boxer pup photo
editCute photo! You've got it listed as "fair use" (that would be {{fairuse}}), and wikipedia is trying to use only photos that have free distribution licenses, such as the same GFDL under which the text of all the pages is licensed. So if it's really only fair use, that means that its redistribution is limited and we'd try to avoid using it. So you might want to consider changing it to {{GFDL}}. That's what I use for the photos I put up; I'm not by any means an expert on copyrights, though. Thanks. Meanwhile, I've commented out the photo in Wikipedia:List of images/Nature/Animals/Dogs because that's a page for free-distribution (public domain or GFDL or equiv) photos. If you decide to change the license, the page alignment is easy for me to fix. Thanks. Elf | Talk 04:36, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
This photo is now GFDL. Feel free to use as you see fit. He's now going on six months and is about three times the size from when the photo was taken.Tribe 05:31, Aug 22, 2004 (UTC)
- Thanks! Elf | Talk 06:13, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- OK, I cropped it down and reloaded the file under the more descriptive name Image:BoxerPuppyCash.jpg. (Oh, yeah--it's amazing how quickly puppies grow--and how large!) Elf | Talk 06:31, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)

editI Was looking up some stuff on boxer pups and came across your pic of the 3 month old boxer pup he is a very nice dog. However i had already seen the the same pic being advertised for dogs for sale on an irish website called http://www.donedeal.ie/donedeal/classifieds/view.jsp?cid=781015. I would like to know who the real owner is as i was thinking of buying a dog off this lady. Thanks D —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.42.8.0 (talk) 12:37, 4 March 2007 (UTC).
Sorry about the "tribe"
editAs a bumper-stickered Twins fan, it was really hard for me to cheer for the Indians. However, my three favorite teams are: in order: 1. The Twins. 2. Whoever is playing the Yankees. 3. Whoever is playing the Red Sox. So, as a rule, I did cheer for the drumbeaters and the Central Division. As such, I was really disappointed in last night's game. The Indians deserve to be in there! Hope you are taking it well. BTW, I found you on a random search. Keeper | 76 22:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC) ps. Go Rockies!
Thanks for the expressions of sympathy. I'm over it, but I still wonder why I invest so much emotion in baseball. Alas. Tribe 21:09, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for File:NLCRA Tag.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:NLCRA Tag.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Stifle (talk) 16:39, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (File:NLCRA Tag.jpg)
editThanks for uploading File:NLCRA Tag.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).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 19:14, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
