User talk:GXIndiana
Hi there: Just wanted to let you know that I think I grasped what you were trying to do with the Harlow Hickenlooper page -- I turned it into a "redirect", which will take people to the page for Hal Fryar. We don't usually have information on two separate pages about the same person. I hope you are okay with this; you can leave me a note if you have any questions or problems. Welcome aboard, and thanks for your contribution! Accounting4Taste:talk 22:01, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Parispipple12.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Parispipple12.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:07, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Heavy Metal Parking Lot movie poster.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Heavy Metal Parking Lot movie poster.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:11, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Paul Oquist Kelley
[edit]Hello, GXIndiana. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Paul Oquist Kelley".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 23:22, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
2019 US Banknote Contest
[edit].png){kind=logo}
|
US Banknote Contest | 
|
|---|---|---|
| November-December 2019 | ||
|
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here | ||

You are invited to discuss why you violated the single revert rule on Council on American–Islamic Relations
[edit]You are past 1RR at Council on American–Islamic Relations, a page where only one reversion is allowed by any single editor in any 24 hour period. I have not blocked you. I have instead fully protected the page temporarily. If you choose not to discuss the subject at Talk:Council on American–Islamic Relations#Edit warring between two editors, I will partially block you (from editing the CAIR page) until you explain yourself and discuss a solution on talk.

- I reverted it one time. Furthermore, that page has been vandalized with misinformation and slander. It needs to be corrected immediately. I invited the other person to improve it instead of simply reverting it back to that poor state. Isn't that what we do here?GXIndiana (talk) 23:47, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- As an environmental professional, I only operate on the basis of facts. If I understand the policy on "original research" correctly, that does not apply to the ACLU material. It is self published but obviously they're an organization of attorneys, first of all, and they have superior editorial oversight. These are not people on the History Channel talking about their book on aliens. Badabara or whoever raised that is not clear on the concept.

- hings like SCOTUSBlop, or the Southern Poverty Law Center, or the American Civil Liberties Union when they post items to their websites, while the groups are "self publishing", we do not consider these SPSs, there is that factor that there is editorial oversight and control that prevent raw thoughts from going from pen to publication without any check, and that's basically what's the distinguishing factor here. But basically, the SPS is more gears to individual blogs more than anything else. --Masem (t) 13:27, 7 July 2020 (UTC) GXIndiana (talk) 23:58, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- FINALLY, review my improvements to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihad_Awad
- Cleaned up real nice, IMHO. I thoroughly researched his statements about Oct. 7 and used the fullest quote I could find. There'd be a link to the actual speech at the AMP convention but apparently they took it off their website under pressure. GXIndiana (talk) 00:04, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- That's all very well and good, but we discuss the topic on the relevant topic talk page, so that you and others may actually discuss together, instead of here by yourself. My notice above was about your bad behavior, not specific content. BusterD (talk) 00:39, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
