Why did I restrict my images to "non-commercial use"? Because Creative Commons normally give the author that option (and I am allowed to create my own license terms).
As a compromise, I will make the images very tiny for Wikipedia use to comply with the public domain policy.
Cheers

Userbox Migration
Hello! I noticed your script was migrating a very large number of userboxes lately. I wanted to suggest not trying to move every userbox, especially if they do not seem to be causing any sort of controversy. If someone migrated an uncontrovercial box and did not bypass its redirects, you might want to just move the userbox back to its original location instead of finishing their migration, which saves time and reduces headaches. It's my opinon that migrating userboxes which are not causing problems runs contrary to the purpose of WP:UM, which is to reduce conflicts and avoid starting new arguments. Thanks! —AySz88\^-^ 22:51, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you, though I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing; I guess I should give an example. I noticed that you moved a few interest boxes, like a Magic: The Gathering box and a D&D box. Those are probably harmless (or somewhat useful) enough to leave alone, unless I missed some sort of big incident involving those sort of boxes.
- Happy editing. :) —AySz88\^-^ 23:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

As a result of discussion on the village pump and mailing list, bots are now allowed to edit up to 15 times per minute. The following is the new text regarding bot edit rates from
Until new bots are accepted they should wait 30-60 seconds between edits, so as to not clog the recent changes list and user watchlists. After being accepted and a bureaucrat has marked them as a bot, they can edit at a much faster pace. Bots doing non-urgent tasks should edit approximately once every ten seconds, while bots who would benefit from faster editing may edit approximately once every every four seconds.

Hello, User:Poccil. I have noticed from your talk page that you are a fan of or have an interest in The Smurfs series. There is currently a discussion concerning the merging of all individual articles on Smurf video games into one bigger article. I do not believe that any of the editors involved in the discussion (myself included) know much about the games and I was hoping you could provide us with the benefit of your opinion as an editor knowledgeable about the subject. If you are not interested in helping or if you believe yourself incapable at this time then please disregard this message. The discussion is currently under way here. Thanks for your time. -Thibbs (talk) 21:12, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Langsteps.jpg
![File Copyright problem](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Langsteps.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
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 tagged, as described on

Julian LeBlant
It's been so long since I have done anything on Wikipedia, that I can't even recall the methodology, whether to reply to you or post on the page in question. In any event the photograph of the Julian LeBlant painting was one I took, so I decided to share it with the public. The painting won a Gold Medal in the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1889, so it has long, long, long, long, long, long, long passed into the public domain. And of course, I am sure no one has made a complaint about it, that this is another self-appointed act of Wiki-Sabotage, which is unique to Wikipedia. Oh, what can I delete today? The large painting, the artist's best known work, has since been donated to a museum, so everyone is happy to see the image reproduced. I owned the painting at the time I photographed it, so I had every right to scan and upload the image of the painting!!! I shot the image and owned the file as I stated!!!! At one time I uploaded an image of Julian LeBlant himself as well, but that was another act of good will that ran afoul of a self-appointed censor, who once again worried that an image from the 1880s was not out of copyright, so it too was deleted, which I am sure led to an enormous orgasm on the part of the deleter of the 130 year old image. Who knows what motivates such a person, someone better than I, I guess. With these type of standards, it is a wonder anything ever gets up and it is why I no longer find the time to contribute. Too much of life to live to worry about such things, especially since my stroke and I feel like having another one every time I waste time with such twaddle! Leblant lived a long life and died between the wars, but all of the images that have been uploaded are classics from the Belle Epoque era, all so far out of contention or copyright as to be ridiculous!
