ghost in the shell

i'm about to merge all ghost int he shell albums, is there any objections to this? Reason why i ask is just that i saw you edit on megatech body and since there are a few images in there, i thought someone might get mad if i removed them when i merged all the albums in one articleBread Ninja (talk) 18:31, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

yeah pretty much, most the albums dont meet the notability guideline and does that seemingly do, will just appear to be content forking if i left them separtely.Bread Ninja (talk) 20:24, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

First World War/World War I

Please don't change "British" articles to use World War I - the British usage, as defined by the titles of the Official history is First World War, though World War I is now used almost interchangeably, but per WP:ENGVAR either is acceptable. The change you made on John Fisher, 1st Baron Fisher also made the usage in the infobox inconsistent with that in the rest of the article. David Underdown (talk) 09:45, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

• Since Los Angeles City or County employees are not State of California employees. Can the work of City or County employees be treated as work of a State of California employee, taken or made during the course of the person's official duties, and is consequently in the public domain?

Romanization for words of English origin

On the MOS:JP talk page, a discussion has been started about including or not including romanizations for words of English origin, such as Fainaru Fantajī in Final Fantasy (ファイナルファンタジー, Fainaru Fantajī) (for the sake of simplicity, I called this case "words of English origin", more information on semantics here).

Over the course of a month, it has become apparent that both the parties proposing to include or not include those romanizations cannot be convinced by the arguments or guidelines brought up by the other side. Therefore, a compromise is trying to be found that will satisfy both parties. One suggestion on a compromise has been given already, but it has not found unanimous agreement, so additional compromises are encouraged to be suggested.

One universally accepted point was to bring more users from the affected projects in to help achieve consensus, and you were one of those selected in the process.

What this invitation is:

• You should give feedback on the first suggested compromise and are highly encouraged to provide other solutions.

What this invitation is not:

• This is not a vote on including or excluding such romanizations.
• This is not a vote on compromises either.

It would be highly appreciated if you came over to the MOS:JP talk page and helped find a solution. Thank you in advance. Prime Blue (talk) 11:30, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Etchberger article

Thanks for the help on the Article. I think its stabilized enough now that we can start building it up to GA or better. I think its at or close to a B currently so it shouldnt take too long to get it to GA. I don't usually deal with images and video content but I was thinking about adding the images from his USAF bio for the Lima site as well as the video of the Presentation to the Commons. Do you think that would be ok? Also, there are some other videos done by stars and stripes and a couple of other (mostly interviews of His wife, kids and a few of the survivors) what do you think about those? --Kumioko (talk) 20:56, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

USC Sanctions

You removed the following quote from several articles. Is that warranted? I don't know if it has come under intense criticism from all college football pundits, but it has been roundly criticized by many. Moreover, Ted Miller is well-regarded NCAA football writer. 94.175.120.179 was not expressing his own opinion, but quoting Miller.

These sanctions have subsequently come under criticism from college football pundits. As ESPN’s Ted Miller wrote, “It's become an accepted fact among informed college football observers that the NCAA sanctions against USC were a travesty of justice, and the NCAA’s refusal to revisit that travesty are a massive act of cowardice on the part of the organization. That's the take of all clear-thinking people.”

I have toned down the quote to make it less NPOV, as follows, and re-inserted it in some articles.

These sanctions have been criticized by some NCAA football writers, including ESPN’s Ted Miller, who wrote, “It's become an accepted fact among informed college football observers that the NCAA sanctions against USC were a travesty of justice, and the NCAA’s refusal to revisit that travesty are a massive act of cowardice on the part of the organization.”

Request for permission of using the photo "Towing a minivan" in a press article

Hello BrokenSphere,

I'm a journalist (free lancer). For an article in a German horse magazine about towing cars from a meadow or a field I would like to use your photo of a Mazda minivan (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Towing_a_minivan_06.JPG). Can you give me permission to use this photo? And what reference / acknowledgement of copyright would you want me to use? Would be BrokenSphere / Wikimedia okay for you?

Thanks a lot in advance for your answer.

Proposed deletion of File:Black Lagoon OST cover.jpg

The file File:Black Lagoon OST cover.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free album cover being used in a decorative manner in Black Lagoon#Music. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:23, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

use of image

Dear Mr. Broken Sphere:

I am an art historian teaching in the Kaohsiung University, Taiwan. My book on the subject of the Art of Woodblock Print of Romance of the Western Chamber t is going to be published next year in Taiwan, by the National History Museum. In the book I am going to use the image of a Chinese ivory fan depicting scenes from The Story of the Western Wing collected in Asian Art Museum SF, as an illustration (see attached file). I found the image I need from your blog in website and therefore would like to ask for your consent to use the image in my coming book. I appreciate very much your generosity and kind help.

                        Sincerely yours,

                         Prof. Dr. Hsu Wen-Chin

Permission to use one of your images

I would like to use your image Ruth Asawa's San Francisco fountain detail 12.JPG in an article about a drawing of a dragon by J.R.R. Tolkien. The image of the dragon on the fountain clearly illustrates the segmented body of Tolkien's dragon, and will make my point. I don't have a venue for the article yet, but it will be in print in a journal. I will cite you as © BrokenSphere / Wikimedia Commons with a URL to the image page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Pirates of the Caribbean mass media

A tag has been placed on Category:Pirates of the Caribbean mass media requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz ^{Read!
