[edit] Why did you move the wikibooks links?

Why did you feel it was necessary to go through all of the street fighter characters and move the wikibooks link from the top to the bottom? The point of putting them at the top was to alert people to the project and get them to start contributing. With the link moved to the bottom, hardly anyone will notice it. Unless you can defend your decision, I'm going to move them back up to the top.Plotor 19:18, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Sorry about not alerting you or anything, but in the current situation and my concensus, it should be obvious. I'm speculating that when you inserted the wikibook templates into the articles, you didn't use the preview button did you..? When you simply when in, and (apparently) disregarded the text's conformity, you should have noticed that sticking the template up top forces the character sprites, pictures, and sometimes contents link meshes the text and in a appaling manner that renders the nearby text unreadable. Concerning your query and concensus regarding people noticing the project, I'm sure it won't impede that, they just need to look at the bottom, and the wikibook link, being a well, link, belongs in the "external links" section anyway. -MegamanZero|Talk 19:25, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Atari 2600 Hackem Screenshot.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Atari 2600 Hackem Screenshot.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:05, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Atari 2600 Hackem Screenshot.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Atari 2600 Hackem Screenshot.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:36, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SF4 article and StrategyWiki

Hey, I opted to re-remove your strategywiki link for SF4, but wanted to explain to you personally why. While it's a good notion, the game is just too much in limbo for now to really feel like its a good idea to put that there. It's a better bet to just wait and see where things goes before pointing people there for the time being, IMVHO.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 04:37, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
