== Judge Judy ==

Thanks for the info you offered on the [[Talk:Judge Judy#New episodes?|Judge Judy talk page]] recently regarding ITV2's airings, it was very helpful! - '''[[User:Wezzo|W]][[User:Wezzo/Esperanza|<font color="green">e</font>]][[User:Wezzo|zzo]]''' <small>[[User talk:Wezzo|(talk)]] [[User:Wezzo/userboxes|(ubx)]]</small> 19:34, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Marilyn Singer was born in the [[Bronx]] ([[New York City]]) on October 3, 1948 and lived most of her early life in N. Massapequa ([[Long Island]]), NY. She attended Queens College, City University of New York, and for her junior year, Reading University, England. She holds a B.A. in English from Queens and an M.A. in Communications from New York University.

In 1974, after teaching English in New York City high schools for several years, she began to write - initially film notes, catalogues, teacher's guides and film strips. Then, one day, when she was sitting in the [[Brooklyn Botanic Garden]], she penned a story featuring talking insect characters she'd made up when she was eight. Encouraged by the responses she got, she wrote more stories and in 1976 her first book, ''The Dog Who Insisted He Wasn't'', was published by E.P.Dutton & Co.

== Skywards ==

Since then, Marilyn has published over seventy books for children and young adults. Her genres are many and varied, including realistic novels, fantasies, non-fiction, fairy tales, [[picture books]], mysteries and poetry [http://www.writing-world.com/children/singer.shtml]. [http://www.tracievaughnzimmer.com/marilyn%20Singer.htm]

The general consensus has been to not have separate articles on frequent flyer programs unless they are particularly notable (AAdvantage has one because it was the first, Miles & More has one because it has become a multi-airline program - 5 carriers are now in it). In addition, much of the information listed is not encyclopedic, such as hotels and car rental companies, since most offers miles with most airlines.

As for the destinations article, the alliances have destination articles, but this isn't an alliance, just a frequent-flyer program. [[User:Dbinder|Dbinder]] ([[User talk:Dbinder|talk]]) 21:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

:Sorry I accused you of spamming. The main reason behind that was the fact that you put the exact same paragraph in several airlines (in one case you didn't even change the name of the airline). I figured you were just another fan of a particular airline, since there are quite a few who add useless info to articles. Looking into it more, what you added wasn't really spam. [[User:Dbinder|Dbinder]] ([[User talk:Dbinder|talk]]) 03:07, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

:That's ok, I've got an even easier way. I can undelete and retag it ;) Shell ^{[[User_talk:Shell_Kinney|babelfish]]} 20:25, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Marilyn Singer lives in [[Brooklyn]], NY, and Washington Depot, CT,

::Err -- retag means change the licensing tag (sorry, been doing this too long). Its back in the article now. Shell ^{[[User_talk:Shell_Kinney|babelfish]]} 20:26, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the compliment. I am in the process of editing most pages with this type of format for the fleet table. I also reorganized the page recently to how most airline pages are organized. And I also noticed this article was lacking an affinity program, and I read what Dbinder wrote above. I still think their should be a general mention of the freq. flyer program in the article.

*FAMILY REUNION (Macmillan, 1994)

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Makemeasupermodellogo.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[WP:O|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. [[WP:BOLD|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 under fair use (see [[Wikipedia:Fair use#Policy|our fair use policy]]).

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 "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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 fair use images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]].

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:JimmyCarrDVDCover.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:JimmyCarrDVDCover.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to add <code><nowiki>{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}</nowiki></code>, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''.

==='''Picture Books'''===

# On [[Image talk:JimmyCarrDVDCover.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.

*LET'S BUILD A CLUBHOUSE (Clarion, 2006)

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}}&amp;namespace=6}} this link]</span>. 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 [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]].

*Who Wrote That? Featuring Marilyn Singer [http://www.patriciamnewman.com/singer.html]

*WritingWorld.com (interview)[http://www.writing-world.com/children/singer.shtml]

*"I don't know if I have a single poem that defines me. A lot of people think of me as a "nature poet" because I love writing about the natural world. But I also like to create characters and use them as narrators, and I'm fond of really silly verse." [http://www.authorsontheweb.com/features/0204-poet/kid-poet-q2.asp]

*Singer actually sits and writes with pen in hand for three to four hours a day. "But I think writing for twenty-four, it seems. I like to write in cafes, restaurants, subways—it's not fixed." [http://www.patriciamnewman.com/singer.html]
