== Page history repair neeed ==

I'm asking for sysop help in repairing page history. I know there's a page to make this request... but I can't find it right now. The page histories for [[Sleeman Centre (Brisbane)]] and [[Sleeman Centre]] need to be merged and repaired. [[User:Mrcbc]] decided to cut and paste the whole article to create a disambiguation page. Could you please assist? Thanks. [[User:Flibirigit|Flibirigit]] 00:17, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|32px|left|Replaceable fair use]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Kanko.jpg]]'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our [[Wikipedia:Fair use criteria|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:

# Go to [[:Image:Kanko.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to add {{tlx|di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''.
# On [[Image talk:Kanko.jpg|the image discussion page]], write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|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 <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target={{PAGENAMEE}}&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our [[WP:FUC|Fair Use policy]].  If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

==Diacritics==
I've just given' (big time) to the 'pro-diacritics' editors (as humiliating as it was). I've grown 'sour' on them; bet if the 'NHL official website' had diacritics, they be supporting those websites. Never happy, unless they have a slight edge. [[User:GoodDay|GoodDay]] 00:13, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
:It's alright CC, I just don't like having 'foreign' symbols forced on 'me'. Anyway, I'm not angry at the 'pro-diacritics' editors. It's just so 'double standard'. I'm afraid this experience has left a 'sour' taste in my mouth, even though I made the choice to 'dive' into this. I'll ''never'' agree to it (diacritics at English Wikipedia), but I'll accept it.

==Question==
Hi, I don't know if you read my post in the WP:IH talk page, but I'm going away for a week and I need somebody to watch [[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Hart Memorial Trophy]] and address any possible concerns that might pop up. It is unopposed right now and has the required 4 votes, but things can change. Either way, I was wondering if you would mind keeping an eye on it for me. Thanks, [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]]<sup>[[user talk:Scorpion0422|0422]]</sup> 16:12, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
::I suppose I could, although I've never really dealt with this sorta thing before, but I'll keep an eye on it for ya.

Hey there.  Thanks for the welcome back.  Note that Corey Bryant is not the same as VaughanWatch.  I just warned Corey for his personal attacks.  Then it was a bunch of VW socks that came out to attack me.  I doubt that it was Corey that was attacking me.

== It's a Small World After All ==

OK, this really has nothing to do with anything, but I had to share.  I was just looking at your user page and I read about you being the first editor to put the 2005 World Series championship officially on [[Chicago White Sox]].  That was actually among my first experiences with Wikipedia.

I was just learning about Wikipedia in a technology class earlier in the week.  In fact, we may have actually talked about it that day; I'm not sure.  Anyway, I actually made a post to my class blog about your edit, including a link to it: [http://daveissooocool.blogspot.com/2005/10/ive-got-wiki-sickness-but-im-not-only.html See?]  Isn't that something?

Wacky, huh? [[User:Skudrafan1|Skudrafan1]] 02:10, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Marge on the Lam is a decent episode indeed, but Homer's Enemy is at the top of my favourites list. Anyway, thanks a lot. I'm currently working on [[James Norris Memorial Trophy]].

:I doubt I'll do every trophy article, but I'd love to see an NHL Trophies FT, perhaps others will pick up on it and improve the others.

Dear Croat, an [[User:Opjj6|overzealous football fan]] moved an article in progress from my userspace into the mainspace at the [[Jean Carlos Chera]] article. I was working on this article...

I noticed you put yourself on the list of users looking to take a ''noob'' under their wing. I am very interested in helping wikipedia update there pages and keeping vandalism away. Hockey is my number one passion and you were the first person who liked hockey looking to adopt. I've already made some edits to Bill and Bob Plagers pages. My favorite hockey team is the Detroit Red Wings and I love the Toronto Blue Jays, it appears as if you do to. :) --[[User:Mister Hockey|Mister Hockey]] 04:58, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I was wondering what your status was with the project. We are very close - there are only 3 unclaimed articles left - and if we all work at it, we could be ready for an FTC by November.

:Just a quick question, I'm not very well-versed in team lineages, but I have been working on the [[O'Brien Trophy]], and the Toronto Maple Leafs, Blue Shirts, St. Pats AND Arenas all won the Trophy, so for the Win# column, should they all be combined, or listed seperately.

== FL Main page proposal ==

You either nominated a [[WP:FLC]] or closed such a nomination recently.  As such, you are the type of editor whose opinion I am soliciting.  We now have over 400 [[WP:FL|featured lists]] and seem to be promoting in excess of 30 per month of late (41 in August and 42 in September).  When [[WP:TFA|Today's featured article]] (TFA) started ([[2004-02-22]]), they only had about 200 [[WP:FA|featured articles]] and were barely promoting 20 new ones per month.  I think the quality of featured lists is at least as good as the quality of [[WP:FA|featured articles]] was when they started appearing on the [[main page]].  Thus, I am ready to open debate on a proposal to institute a List of the Day on the main page with nominations starting [[November 1]] [[2007]], voting starting [[December 1]] [[2007]] and main page appearances starting [[January 1]] [[2008]].  For brevity, the proposal page does not discuss the details of eventual main page content, but since the work has already been done, you should consider this proposal assuming the eventual content will resemble the current content at [[WP:FC|the featured content page]].  Such output would probably start at the bottom of the main page.  The proposal page does not debate whether starting with weekly list main page entries would be better than daily entries.  However, I suspect persons in favor of weekly lists are really voicing opinions against lists on the main page since neither TFA nor [[WP:POTD|Picture of the day]] started as weekly endeavors, to the best of my knowledge.  See the List of the Day proposal and comment at [[WP:LOTDP]] and its talk page.--[[User:TonyTheTiger|TonyTheTiger]] <small>([[User talk:TonyTheTiger|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/TonyTheTiger|c]]/[[User:TonyTheTiger/Antonio Vernon|bio]]/[[ User:TonyTheTiger/WPChiDirector |tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM]]) </small> 19:56, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

== Making the list sortable, somewhat. ==

Since you are the main contributor to [[List of ice hockey players who died during their playing career|this list]], I figured I should let you know what I would like to do to it. Would you be opposed to [[Talk:List of ice hockey players who died during their playing career|me doing this]], at all?

== Hey there... ==

Wow, I guess I shoudve read your userpage better.  I noticed that you had a lot of involvement in hockey article and I assumed that you were using 'Canuck' in the context of the Vancouver Canucks, not as a person from Canada.  I guess that's better.   There's no games between the Wild and Leafs this year, so here's hoping for a Stanley Cup match-up.

== LOTD proposal ==

You have nominated a recently successful [[WP:FL]]. There have been two recent proposals to begin a List of the Day feature on the [[main page]], which have both received majorities but have not been approved as overwhelming support sufficient to change the main page. [[WP:LOTDP]] is a new proposal to try to get the ball rolling based on the original proposal.  You can voice your thoughts on its talk page.  Basically, what the proposal entails is attempting to run an official trial, and then vote after the trial run on whether to change the main page.  Support to run a trial requires much less consensus than support to change the main page. Should we succeed at eventually getting such a feature on the main page it would tentatively look like [[Wikipedia:Today%27s_featured_list/Sample2|this]].  Whether or not you support an experimental trial or not you should come discuss the matter at [[WP:LOTDP]]'s talk page.  I apologize if you have either already voiced your opinion on this matter or already tired of hearing about it.--[[User:TonyTheTiger|TonyTheTiger]] <small>([[User talk:TonyTheTiger|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/TonyTheTiger|c]]/[[User:TonyTheTiger/Antonio Vernon|bio]]/[[ User:TonyTheTiger/WPChiDirector |tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM]]) </small> 21:44, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

== Featured List of the Day Experiment ==

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all [[WP:FL]]'s in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at [[WP:LOTD]]. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to [[WP:LOTD]] and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--[[User:TonyTheTiger|TonyTheTiger]] <small>([[User talk:TonyTheTiger|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/TonyTheTiger|c]]/[[User:TonyTheTiger/Antonio Vernon|bio]]/[[WP:LOTD]]) </small> 01:04, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

== Franz Josef Strauß ==

Might I ask you to take a look at the new discussion going on at [[Talk:Franz Josef Strauß#Requested Move, 2007|Franz Josef Strauß]]?  Yes, it ''is'' an ancient topic (the use of '''ß''' on en-wiki), but this is one of the most prominent articles in which this issue is of significance.

Another editor has added the "{{tl|prod}}" template to the article [[Mark Lea Hardy]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability]]).

== Kitchener Rangers reitred numbers ==

Hey Canuck, long time no see. I hope you have time to visit WikiProject Ice Hockey soon. I'm also going to be in Kitchener for the Memorial Cup this Spring. Maybe we will get to chat in person. I noticed that the Rangers retired Scott Stevens' number. [http://www.kitchenerrangers.com/NewsStory.aspx?ID=1146] But that article doesn't say what number it is. I was going to guess # 4 but the Rangers web site says Alex Dzielski wears that number. If you know, please update the [[Kitchener Rangers]] article or let me know. Thanks.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Federko.jpg]]'''. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|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. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

# On [[Image talk:Federko.jpg|the image discussion page]], write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by taking a picture of it yourself.
