The right template to use is not the "only warning" one where the user's been warned multiple times. Thanks 79.79.161.203 (talk) 13:43, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

The contributor of the file has notified me his latest e-mail to the OTRS and that it specifically states the image in question and that it is released to public domain. I was wondering if there is or will be a status update in its case soon. Thank you. DMighton (talk) 01:53, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the response... but he already sent it... it says: To whom it may concern I am giving you permission to use the OHA Dudley Hewitt Cup Photo, along with all other OHA Trophy Photos that are currently on Wikipedia. The OHA is releasing any and all images to public domain. Should you have any questions or concerns please contact me. Regards, Stephen Boscariol OHA Development Coordinator 519-622-2402 Ext. 7 sboscariol@ohahockey.org That is pretty explicit about his intentions. I hope this is good enough.

Halloween cheer!  Hello EuroCarGT: I bet you know the answer to this question…I am trying to put my finger on some information concerning the national parks in the United States. I noticed on your talk page that you participate in the United States national Park project goals. Here's what I need to know: I need to know the total acreage of national parks in the United States. I need to reference the regulations that prevent anyone that visits the parks is prevented from removing, harassing, trapping, or any other activity which impacts any plant or animal located in the park. Thank you very much and best regards

Mentoring for the Co-op?Hey EuroCarGT, this is Jethro, a fellow host at the Teahouse. With a small team, I'm piloting a new mentorship space on Wikipedia called The Co-op. I wanted to ask if you might be interested in mentoring 1 or 2 editors during our pilot in December. The idea is that mentors will be doing one-on-one teaching based on what an editor wants to do or accomplish, and it's not some huge commitment to teach comprehensively about Wikipedia. Your skills in new page patrolling, and experience with deletion processes, and reputation at the Teahouse would all be very valuable for us. If you're interested, please sign up here and we'll keep you posted when we have an actual interface to work with. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have, of course, so let me know if there's anything about the space you'd like to know more about. Much like the Teahouse, the only way we'll know if our project is useful is if we can get folks to help teach. I, JethroBT drop me a line 22:04, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for October 28Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited John Tory, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CBC Toronto. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular. The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered. If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.) If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}. Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors. I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC). Sent via--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC) Would you have any suggestions?A few months ago during the eventually unsuccessful Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Piotrus_3 you voted "neutral". You said "Neutral more of leaning towards Support, still thinking of this candidate." I wonder if you ever had time to revisit this - did you decide to keep neutral, or did it slip your mind? I wonder if you'd have any suggestions in the event I'd decide to run again. Cheers, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:29, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
Wow, I am impressed. Such general topics are a pain to improve. Nicely done! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:21, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Bl1.jpg A tag has been placed on File:Bl1.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image. 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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Steak you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. Don't want to duplicate effort, or steal your sunshineSometimes the time horizon for "soon" is longer than I think. Apparently you meant "immediately". I'll leave steak alone for a few hours. --NickPenguin(contribs) 22:47, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
The article Steak you nominated as a good article has passed Dudley Hewitt Cup imageHi, the owner of the Dudley Hewitt Cup image (Steve Boscariol) e-mailed me yesterday to confirm that he e-mailed the permission form for the image yesterday. I was hoping to confirm that it arrived. DMighton (talk) 22:22, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
