Replaceable fair use File:Eriksten.jpgThanks for uploading File:Eriksten.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself. If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 03:32, 15 September 2010 (UTC) DYK for Tyonajanegen

Gobonobo T C 17:30, 19 September 2010 (UTC) template capitalization competition & reflist columnsThank you for your attention to detail. I've noticed that both {{cite . . .}} and {{Cite . . .}} replace each other. Either another user or a bot is going around capitalizing and you're decapitalizing. I don't remember who's capitalizing or I'd suggest something there, because, whichever convention is accepted, it would save the two of you a lot of work if agreement was reached. I capitalize since that seems to be the convention but I'm not sure that all templates have a consistent style. On Reflist/reflist, I think a two-column layout is more readable than a single column, although I agree that a fixed width may be bad on some hardware and three or more columns is bad on some hardware. I'm going to continue using two columns unless you suggest a good reason for not. One difference may be that one column may be better for long URLs, although as long as they're clickable I'm not sure that matters, and I prefer to label external URLs with document titles or other information anyway. Thanks again. Nick Levinson (talk) 03:15, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi. As you recently commented in the straw poll regarding the ongoing usage and trial of Pending changes, this is to notify you that there is an interim straw poll with regard to keeping the tool switched on or switching it off while improvements are worked on and due for release on November 9, 2010. This new poll is only in regard to this issue and sets no precedent for any future usage. Your input on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Dale Robertson sign (Tea Party) sectionGood job on finding sources for that issue. I thought it would take a couple of weekdays for people to find stuff and for it to be fixed but you fixed it pretty quickly. The article continues to be high profile and readers expect allegations to be well sourced. Gratz. Veriss (talk) 22:05, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
Alan GraysonFor whatever reason, you reverted perfectly unobjectionable edits to Alan Grayson, which incidentally did not remove content but rather moved it to other sections so the article would be more reader-friendly.

United States Congress & Dab solverHi, you recently used this program (or some other additional program?) to make many changes to the above article. Unfortunately, in correcting miscapitalizations, the program introduced some of its own. For example, in author names, it changed RICHARD L. BERKE to Richard l. berke (there are many changes like that one). Anyway to fix this other than by hand?--Bbb23 (talk) 23:05, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Skier Dude (talk 03:47, 15 October 2010 (UTC) Lossy compression artifacts in File:Wired magazine June 1997.pngI noticed you swapped out the article image for Wired (magazine) with a picture of the cover, replacing the .svg logo that was already there, but the image you replaced it with is a .png with visible .jpg artifacts. Now, I've looked around at some of the other magazine articles, and I noticed that they have covers and not logos for their article images, but the image you put up is blurry, even in the thumbnail on the article. I've decided to revert your change, because overall, I think the logo looks better, even if it isn't the whole cover. If you have the original jpg image that was converted to png, or better yet, a png of the cover, it'd be great if you could upload that to replace the logo. Or, if you think having a cover image instead of a logo is more important than decent quality, go ahead and revert my edit to put yours back up. Lx45803 (talk) 07:59, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

"Left-wing" & "regularly"Please explain why you went through many of my edits and removed "left-wing", and in the case of Jane Mayer and Jim Wallis, removed "regularly." The description "left-wing" succinctly gives the reader an idea of what the show is about and provides an explanation of why it matters that these journalists appeared on the show. I have 5 reliable sources that characterize Democracy Now! as "left-wing" (one of those sources was added to the SPLC article after being challenged by someone else). As far as "regularly" for Jane Mayer and Jim Wallis, I provided 5 example references each over a lengthy period of time to demonstrate their regular appearance on the show. Thanks.

RoxmanThanks, Gobonobo, for moving the photo of Susanna Roxman to the more normal position; also, for enlarging the picture a bit. The page looks much smarter this way. Would it be possible for you to enlarge the photo a little more? Most portraits on the Wikipedia seem to be larger. I'm not sure how to do this.
