• I fixed this image for you, so the photo will not deleted. On an unrelated note, I checked out the page User:The B and found that that user name has not been taken; therefore if you wish you can ask that your wikipedia account be transfered so that you can assume the user name "The B". Thought you might like to know ;) TomStar81 05:25, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Ah, well when I registered it said that "The B" was taken. How would I go about getting my account transferred? Thanks for the help with the image, by the way. Much appreciated!

  • Item A) I am not entirely sure how one goes about transfereing a userpage account to a new page, but if you inquire about such a move at
    Wikipedia:User page they should be able to answer your questions. Item B) I usually fix a lot of images uploaded under the heading of "fair use". As long as a source is provided (like a website or something similar) and the image in question is being used then its really just a simple matter of adding a fair use rational. In any case, your welcome. TomStar81 21:13, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply

Found it! Filing a request at Wikipedia:Changing username to ask for your account to be transfered to a new and unused user account is how one goes about changing his (or her, as the case may be) username. TomStar81 02:24, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I created the summary myself from watching the episode while writing most of it. The main reason I included the external links was to keep the particular page in line with the other exsisting episode articles.

Ah, alright. Thanks for your help. Just so you know, there are now a few dozen episode pages without summaries since they were copy-and-paste jobs from those two websites, so the first three seasons are open to getting episode summaries if you're up to the task :). Thanks again.

Thanks for uploading Image:Amiina-05.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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{

Hi!

Nice to see you working on the PCG article... even if you are removing my cover images... *sniff*. :P Anyway, are you still as new and helpless and lost as your userpage states? If so I'd be happy to give you a hand. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 19:09, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion nomination of List of video games with female antagonists

I have nominated List of video games with female antagonists, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of video games with female antagonists. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:42, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I noticed you uploaded a picture of the PC Gamer 2009 (201) UK cover to the PC Gamer article. Do you have this issue of the magazine available, because I need the title of an online game that was reviewed in it? The game itself is a sort of simulation of being the USA President, that mainly revolved around foreign policy.

Cheers, Tractorfan

Better source request for File:Inmemoriamcover.jpg

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

• File:Inmemoriamcover.jpg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:16, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
