[edit] Jumpship(Battletech) article

Scaletail...I did see the section on Jumpships in battletech technology, but decided that a fuller article was needed. The technology page is a good index, but not really all that good for in-depth discussion of a particular technology. If you look carefully, you will notice that I recycled some of the text from the Btech technology article. You point on the naming convention is well-taken, and I've already corrected this.M.U.D. 21:32, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey there

I've noticed that you are active in the BattleTech articles here at Wikipedia. I've started a proposal for a Battletech Wikiproject. If you are interested please check out my proposal at the Battletech main article's talk page. Thanks alot. NeoFreak 05:37, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Loren_L_Coleman.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Loren_L_Coleman.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 13:19, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
