User talk:Mmxx

Welcome from Addison2008

Hi there

You have been doing a great job fighting vandalism ever since you joined last month and i was wondering as a speedy way of dealing with the mess may i suggest you apply for rollback. Let me tell you it is a much faster way of taking care of the trash on the wiki. I have no doubt you will be accepted so apply here at the bottom of this page :) You may also be interested in the anti vandalism tools at this page. My apologies if you already know about this :P Keep up the great work, we all appreciate vandal fighters here on the pedia. Happy Wikipeding! ^(talk) 08:23, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your encouraging comment. but I thought I must have more edits to be accepted. anyway, I'll do it, hope they accept me. Thanks again.  ■ MMXX^c.t  11:19, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi, i saw your post on Azatoth's talk page. Unfortunately Twinkle doesn't work in IE, have you ever tried using another browser say Mozilla Firefox? Try it, its easy. It will make things so much more easier than editing via hand Reverted edits by xxx ...., make sure you apply for Rollback, trust me :) ^(talk) 06:46, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply.   ■ MMXX^c.t  09:12, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

• I have granted your request for Rollback, just remember that if you aren't 100% sure an edit was in bad faith, don't use it. Otherwise, keep up the excellent work. Cheers, 12:43, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for Rollback, I'll do my best to protect Wikipedia.   ■ MMXX^c.t  12:54, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Marking your edits as minor

Hi - just a heads up that your edits show up as being marked minor when they shouldn't:

Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.' Thank you.

Regards --Matilda ^talk 07:07, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. can you please tell me which ones, because most of my edits are reverting vandalism and i thought they must marked as minor. Should i make a second edit on all pages and mark them as major? Regards   ■ MMXX^c.t  07:30, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

PS: Rollback marks edits as minor by default.   ■ MMXX^c.t  07:36, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi - rolling back vandalism is fine as being marked minor. However, welcoming people or warning people should probably not be - see for example [1] and [2] - the edit summaries don't show them as being marked as minor but they do show as such in your contribution history. Regards --Matilda ^talk 07:51, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you very much for pointing it out. I will keep it in mind in the future.   ■ MMXX^c.t  13:33, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Graphic lab/top

Hi there, I noticed you added the little green box to the graphics lab for making requests. Great idea btw! I hope you don't mind that I changed the link a bit, I hope it is more helpful this way. If you think it should be reverted back to how you had it please do so.

Thanks for your time, • 23:09, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

No, i don't mind; In fact your change is great and useful, thanks for your contributions.   ■ MMXX^talk  18:13, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Regarding: "List of Last of the Summer Wine characters" edit

I added that information for a specific reason; the 'link' on the word "poof", led to a section of Wikipedia that has no relevance to the British English language.
It is well known from a British point of view, that the word "poof" is used in place of sissy, or homosexual; it can be used as an offence to any male who enjoys the finer points of life. Indeed, I added the information for reasons of clarity, since Wikipedia seems to be VERY American biased, and the so-called link led to a section that bears no meaning to the context in which the word was used.
I therefore stand by my original edit and ask you to reconsider your somewhat over zealous countermanding of my quite reasonable edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.244.213 (talk) 22:44, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I undid my edit, but the link was fine and it lead readers to "Poof" page in Wiktionary which describe the meaning of "Poof"; Wikipedia is a global project and if you think a page is "(as you wrote) VERY American" you can start editing, and make it the way that you think it is right, of course other editors are also free to change your edits, you can start with Poof's page and add some meaning to it. Pleaase don't forget to use Edit summary for all of your edits and I also recommend you to create an user account.   ■ MMXX^talk  09:40, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:Palin nowhere.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Palin nowhere.jpg, which you've sourced to http://www.andrewhalcro.com/the_bridge_to_somewhere. I noticed that that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 11:42, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Thank you for your comment, I didn't creat this image, I uploaded it as a respond to a request by Homunq at Graphic Lab for image improvment. I was also concern about the Copyright of this image but I am not very familiar with Licensing of images and I didn't know what should I do. You may already know that there are two other images like this one and both are nominated for deletion.(Image:Nowhere 99901 (Crop2).jpg and Image:Palin Nowhere 99901.jpg), I believe the original uploader of these images is Duuude007; If there is anything that i can do please let me know.
