I do not want my name in the same line as vandalism on any website on the internet.
Ingorance is one thing - but to imply that someone is a vandal is harsh. Please remove any reference to my name regarding vandalism on this website immediately.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:120px-Cape Town city flag.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:120px-Cape Town city flag.gif. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. User:Angr 10:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Hey Chris, I've added a source and detailed fair-use justification to that image, removed the "unsourced" message from it, and restored it to the articles from which it is removed. Hopefully we won't have trouble with it any more. Cheers, htonl 14:54, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge Culture at Diocesan College
I think the Culture section in the main article deals adequately with the Eisteddfod, music (the Pops concert, pipe organs and choir) and the Debating Society. The only area unique to the separate Culture article is on the History Society, and adding this to the main article won't make the section disproportionately large.
Also, perhaps the Diocesan College category could also be done away with?

An image you uploaded, Image:Capetownarms.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:120px-Cape_Town_city_flag.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:120px-Cape_Town_city_flag.gif. 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 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. — Rebelguys2 talk 05:10, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Because all three were essentially deputies to the president/state president at one time or another. Plus, both the offices of Vice State President and Prime Minister were abolished by 1984, when the 1983 Constitution, giving the Prime Minister's powers to the State President, came into effect (the VSP simply chaired the State President's Council in order to create the new constitution).
Then again, the template was more or less a cover-all for the three positions (kinda like combining the Governors-General template with the State President/President template). You could separate the Prime Minister section into another template if you want. --Toussaint 19:30, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Burger.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Burger.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 16:39, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 63.88.33.254
You warned 63.88.33.254, now it's time to block him. He vandalized Port Charlotte High School after you warned him. Evidence of his vandalizm can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Port_Charlotte_High_School&diff=prev&oldid=151223881. I would notify Comcast of his network abuse via abuse@comcast.net, but the incident is too old. He also appears to have vandalized Recidivism on September 18th, 2007.
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Rbhs.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rbhs.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.BetacommandBot (talk) 03:53, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
