Re: Jesus[edit]

Please do not add commercial links — or links to your own private websites — to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. -- KHM03 02:01, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm simply saying that it's against Wikipedia policy to put up links for your own website. I'm certainly not "telling you what to do". Just be aware of the policy. Thanks...KHM03 02:05, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As long as you don't violate policy and work with the community, that's all fine. Thanks...KHM03 02:11, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Again, I meant no offense; just wanted to point out policy. Thanks...KHM03 02:15, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the discussion at Talk:Jesus regarding your link. You can make a case for it and try and gain a consensus for inclusion. Thanks...KHM03 19:54, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Frank R Wallace.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Frank R Wallace.jpg. 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. BigDT 16:41, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

3rr[edit]

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. —Mets501 (talk) 03:34, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NPA[edit]

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you.

Very nice, but I didn't make any personal attacks. JoeMystical 15:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

(This pertains to your statement on Talk:Neo-Tech (philosophy) that "He [Bi] doesn't appear to have the same goals as the rest of us of providing an informative encyclopedia with reliable information.") Bi 08:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NPA3[edit]

Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Wikipedia has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by administrators or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you.

(This pertains to your statement on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Neo-Tech (philosophy) (3rd_nomination) that "Bi appears to be using Wikipedia to self-promote his joke web page.") Bi 08:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a personal attack. You're going around posting links to your own joke site. It sure looks like self-promotion to me. JoeMystical 16:04, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:V[edit]

Joe, you have very little experience as an editor, and yet you're trying to change one of our core content policies. Please see the introduction of the policy page: edits to policies must reflect consensus. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 03:42, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That part of the policy is incoherent. I can't believe something of such low quality is considered policy. JoeMystical 03:43, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CIVIL[edit]

Another editor has lodged a complaint against you at WP:PAIN. Although I can't quite define this as a personal attack, it's certainly uncivil.[1] Please refrain from accusing other editors of misconduct unless you provide actual evidence of misconduct. That sort of behavior can result in user blocks. Durova 15:17, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
