If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 22:24, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've marked it for speedy, it's not worth the effort. (I know bots can't read). -- stillnotelf is invisible 23:33, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Dream Theater singles

One or more articles that you created or worked on has been nominated for deletion per WP:NSONG. Discussion is consolidaetd at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pull Me Under.- Simon Dodd { U·T·C·WP:LAW } 02:15, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Pull Me Under

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Pull Me Under. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pull Me Under (individual nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:11, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:46, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kind regards --Hauskalainen (talk) 00:45, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:37, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Change the colour of 'has a talk page'

Hi Saw one of your talks and found the link to your talk page ('has a talk page') to have a misleading colour 'red'. I suggest you change the colour so that others do not get confused. Diptanshu^Talk 07:01, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In my preferences, it's marked as F8FCFF (you can see this if you just look at the markup of my signature). That's a very light blue, not red; red is high-low-low on the RGB triplet. Can I ask where you saw it red? I used to use a pink some years ago. -- stillnotelf is invisible 14:41, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would find the page and let you know. Probably it was old and a shade of pink which seemed aberrant due to altered screen resolution of the computer that I was working on. Good to know that it is already fixed.Diptanshu^Talk 14:53, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reading your post more carefully...that was DEFINITELY my old signature. When it read "has a talk page", it was pink; it now reads "is invisible" and is light blue. Sorry for the confusion. -- stillnotelf is invisible 15:17, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 21

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Maxillary lateral incisor agenesis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Skeletal remains (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

List of bridge failures

I'm pretty sure they're referring to the failure of the Millennium Bridge, London, caused by the Death Eaters. - Denimadept (talk) 02:50, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, it was apparently significant in the movie. Thanks for catching it. -- stillnotelf is invisible 18:24, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature

Please be aware that your signature is causing Tidy bug affecting font tags wrapping links lint errors (now known as Old behaviour of link-wrapping font tags) and also uses deprecated <font> tags, which are causing Obsolete HTML tags lint errors. The behavior of the Tidy bug has changed; starting in June 2018 the font color effect was removed. The old effect was that a font color tag directly around a link behaved as if it was inside the link. The new effect is that default link colors override font color tags around a link. You were using this effect to make the link to your talk page invisible. I think this is contrary to WP:SIGAPP, which says that text color should contrast with the background color, so that people can read the text.

Markup for a wikilink that links to the page it is on, instead of being treated as a link, is treated as bold text. So, on this page, the talk page link isn't a link at all, and it really is invisible. To see what it would look like on any other page, we can add #top to the link. Here is your signature with #top added, showing what it looks like on any other page:

[[User:Stillnotelf|<span style="color:#668353;">stillnotelf</span>]] [[User talk:Stillnotelf#top|<span style="color:#F8FCFF;">is invisible</span>]] : stillnotelf is invisible

And here is your signature without #top:

[[User:Stillnotelf|<span style="color:#668353;">stillnotelf</span>]] [[User talk:Stillnotelf|<span style="color:#F8FCFF;">is invisible</span>]] : stillnotelf is invisible

To fix the Tidy font bug, you are encouraged to change your signature:

If you do want the font color (but not making any part of your signature invisible):

[[User:Stillnotelf|<span style="color:#668353">stillnotelf</span>]] [[User talk:Stillnotelf|is invisible]] : stillnotelf is invisible

If you do not want the font color, to

[[User:Stillnotelf|stillnotelf]] [[User talk:Stillnotelf|is invisible]] : stillnotelf is invisible

To see what it would look like on any other page, we can add in #top:

If you do want the font color (but not making any part of your signature invisible):
