- I never could spell, that's what spell check is for. (I rarely use these thing, I hate them. I feel it's called for though.) :-). [[User:BrokenSegue|BrokenSegue]] 03:55, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

A quick note to say thanks

Article Licensing
[edit]Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Thanks
[edit]I'll be a good Arbitrator, I hope. :) [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality/talk]] 05:03, Dec 19, 2004 (UTC)
Common Images
[edit]Hello. I had uploaded this image with lower resolution because the older is very big and I waited much time to see it in my browser. Please remember that not everybody have Broadband connections to Internet. Thanks. --Jabernal 16:30, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Congratulations!
[edit]Congratulations! It's my pleasure to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. You might find the new administrators' how-to guide helpful. Cheers! -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 02:30, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- thanks! BrokenSegue 21:15, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah, congrats on that! However, given that, why are you still tagging for deletion? More importantly, where did the old sandbox talk page go to? I thought I'd give restoring it a shot but I can't find it anywhere. --fvw* 21:33, 2005 Jan 18 (UTC)
How odd, I could have sworn when I checked Watch Out! a minute ago the sandbox talk page wasn't there yet. I really see no reason for you to ask for a second opinion for fixing simple vandalism/mistake moves, deletion is reversible after all. Still, your call. --fvw* 22:28, 2005 Jan 18 (UTC)
