Archives of this pageMy username (User:TKD)It's actually neither my initials nor an abbreviation for taekwondo. Long story, but it's actually shorthand for triskaidekaphobia. I'm not phobic, but it was a nice long word :) — too long, in fact: Someone on another site suggested a long time ago that I shorten it because it would be hard for people to remember how to spell. As it turns out, people still occasionally botch the order of the letters, perhaps because there is a company called TDK. — TKD::Talk 17:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC) Fair use for PGP imagesImage:PGPgui1.pngThanks for uploading Image:PGPgui1.png. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself. If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. This is a violation of the first rule since GNU PGP [1] has a free GNU licensed version of PGP so it violates the first rule of fair use. A helpful addition to wikipedia would be to use a screenshot from GNU PGP and add it to the article. SirGrant 03:18, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Change to Real-time clockIn Real-time clock you changed system clocks to system clocks. But you've changed the meaning dramatically, and inappropriately, in my opinion. The system time article does in fact discuss real time (something measured in seconds or something like it e.g. BOGOMIPS), but the link should point to a system clock, (one which is governs the timing of components and doesn't relate to any sort of time.) If you missed the meaning I intended when I wrote the sentence, then others very probably will too. I'm going to reword the sentence and change the link back. Let me know what you think.

User exit == callback?I've just noticed your edit to the callback article. I don't agree that a user exit is the same thing as a callback. I've started a thread on the discussion I would be interested in your thoughts. Thanks. --Bleveret 11:39, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Quest SoftwareAre all the pages in Category:Quest Software simply product advertisements (spam)? — Loadmaster 22:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

USS WyandotGlad you liked the article. I was on USS Rankin (AKA-103) from 1961-1963. In 2003, I met some other guys from that time online. One thing led to another, and we now have a very large reunion group. (See http://www.ussrankin.org). All that stuff led to an interest in other AKAs, which Wikipedia has allowed me to indulge. I probably know more about more AKAs than any man alive (just guessing, though); it's become a minor hobby. Through it, I've communicated with your father, and have his name on an AKA mailing list. Some of the guys I knew on the Rankin had also been on the Wyandot, which in those days was going through some changes. BTW, it's pleasant, but the tiniest bit disconcerting, that some time ago I met one Tribble, and now I've met a second one. I understand from The Trouble with Tribbles that I may shortly be encountering them by the dozens. ;-) Lou Sander 22:50, 28 May 2007 (UTC) ClichésOn-screen clichés was a redirect to Film and television clichés (must have been moved as there was no edit history), which was AFD'd at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Film and television clichés. --Steve (Stephen) talk 23:11, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Nice new catNice new category (Category:African American rock musicians), but I was wondering can we change the name and use black instead of African American because some of the artist you said aren't from Africa and denoting all black people African-American is not really true, and a lot don't like it.--Migospia†♥ 23:33, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping. If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker. P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 15:20, 19 June 2007 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image (Image:Asta1.jpg)Thanks for uploading Image:Asta1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:29, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
