[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Rugby union

Hi, I saw your edits on the Rugby 06 article, then noticed you play as well, feel free to join to Rugby union project. Cheers Cvene64 02:41, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the offer. I am going to look on that project page, and if I find something to add, I sure will :). By the way, do you play as well? -Jort227 15:05, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't play club anymore (I stopped this year), I have just been too busy this year, but I will probably start again soon-ish. Where abouts do you play? Cvene64 10:57, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Well to be honest I haven't played in a little while because of a bad injury. However, I am planning to start again next season. I am going to play in a city near my hometown. Allthough, I live in the Netherlands so you probably don't know any clubs here ;-). But where did you play? And did you play in a senior team or a youth team (I don't know your age so :-P). Since I am 16 (allmost 17) I will play in a youth team :-) - Jort227 19:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

No I don't really know any clubs in the Netherlands, how big is rugby there? I only ever played in a local club team, I'm one year older than you. Sorry I took so long to reply as well, its been like over a month! Cheers. Cvene64 17:11, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging for Image:Harry quidditch.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Harry quidditch.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Rugby union/Collaboration of the fortnight

I saw that you were interested in helping out on WP:RU. Our Collaboration of the fortnight is International Rugby Board. Maybe you might want to help out on that?--Hamedog_Talk|^@ 14:15, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Seasonsbox big.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Seasonsbox big.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BigDT 16:13, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] {{Maxis-stub}}

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 01:57, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

I've proposed to rename this and {{Doom-stub}} at Wikipedia:Stub_types_for_deletion/Log/2007/July/16, to {{ElectronicArts-stub}} and {{IdSoftware-stub}} (respectively). Thought you might be interested. I've also proposed new stub types here. ~ JohnnyMrNinja 08:12, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar for you

		The Editor's Barnstar

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:205px-Maxis logo.svg.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:205px-Maxis logo.svg.png. 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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:42, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:MySimsWiibox.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:MySimsWiibox.jpg. I notice the image 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 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. BigrTex 22:33, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:MySimsDSbox.jpg

I have tagged Image:MySimsDSbox.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. BigrTex 22:34, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use disputed for Image:MySimsWiibox.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:MySimsWiibox.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 21:34, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

“I am not afraid Of anything in this world There's nothing you can throw at me That I haven't already heard” U2 News "PopMart: Live From Mexico City" will be released on DVD on September 10. A list of U2's other video releases can be found here. U2's new film, U23D, is due for 3D theatre release later this year. U2 are currently working with Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois on their new album in North Africa and France. Project News Don't forget that the Collaboration of the Fortnight Department is up-and-running. The collaboration this fortnight is The Edge. If you would like to nominate an article, go to the Collaboration of the Fortnight Talk Page. If you have any questions contact Smithcool or Neranei. Member News Also Neranei has recently started the U2 Portal. Don't forget to visit it when you can. Did You Know? On front cover of All That You Can't Leave Behind is a very subtle Biblical reference. In the background J 33-3 can be seen. This is a reference to verse 33 of chapter 3 of the book of Jeremiah: "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and hidden things which you have not known."	From the Editors Welcome to the September Edition of the U2 WikiProject Newsletter. The theme for this newletter is "All That You Can't Leave Behind". We hope you enjoy reading it! New Members Our new members this month are Keeper76 and Jort227. We have now reached 40 members. The Album The album was released on October 30, 2000. It debuted at #1 in 28 countries and sold over 12 million copies worldwide. This album marked the end of U2's experimental phase in the 90's. However, they did not really return to their more traditional rock sound until How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. Rolling Stone called it "U2's third masterpiece". The song "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" was written by Bono for his late friend, Michael Hutchence. On several occasions the band said that they were "re-applying for the job of the best band in the world" with this album. The singles released from the album are: Beautiful Day, Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of, Walk On and Elevation. Take a look at the All That You Can't Leave Behind article for more info.

[edit] WikiProject U2 November Newsletter

The U2 WikiProject Newsletter Issue VI - 1st November 2007 If you would like to help out with future newsletters, please contact the Outreach Department.
U2 News On September 28, Bono was jointly awarded the Philadelphia Liberty Medal along with DATA. The medal is awarded to recognize leadership in the pursuit of freedom. Three U.S. Presidents, Nelson Mandela, Viktor Yushchenko, Colin Powell and Kofi Annan are among those who have been awarded it. In his acceptance speech, Bono spoke of those who don't have their liberty and urged Americans to keep working to solve the world's problems. More info here. U23D, U2's upcoming movie, will not be released until early next year. U2's recent biography, U2 By U2, is now available in paperback in the U.S. The 20th anniversary edition of The Joshua Tree will be released soon; the bonus content includes the Red Hill Mining Town video, often sought by fans. Project News Larry Mullen has reached Good Article status! Our first piece of featured content; List of U2 awards is completed. Where the Streets Have No Name is our latest GA. Member News There were no new members this month. Did You Know? Bono is the only person to have been nominated for an Oscar, Grammy, Golden Globe, and Nobel Peace Prize.	From the Editors Welcome to the November edition of the WikiProject U2 Newsletter. This month's theme is Zooropa, one of U2's most experimental albums. We hope you enjoy reading it! New Members The Album Zooropa was released on July 6, 1993. This album, along with Pop, is considered one of U2's most experimental. It was originally slated to be an EP, but expanded into an LP. It was recorded in between legs on the Zoo TV Tour. Zooropa features a rare lead singing performance by The Edge, on the song Numb. The names of three unfinished songs from the recording sessions -"Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me", "If You Wear That Velvet Dress", and "Wake Up Dead Man"- appear superimposed on the cover; "Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me" was used in the Batman Forever soundtrack, and "If You Wear That Velvet Dress" and "Wake Up Dead Man" were included on 1997's "Pop". "Numb" was released in an unlikely format as the first "video single"; the "Numb" video is thought of as one of U2's best. "Some Days are Better Than Others" is the only track to have never been played live. The singles from Zooropa are "Numb", "Lemon", and "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)"
