== MSU Interview ==

== [[User:Gungadin]] and [[EastEnders]] ==

Dear Feydey,

Hi. Last month you contributed to [[User talk:Gungadin]] about image copyright issues. I've had to tag '''a lot''' of her images today as nsd. Would you mind keeping an eye on the issue with me so I don't break any rules myself? Cheers. [[User:The JPS|The JPS]] 12:20, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

== Re: ==

My name is Jonathan Obar [[user:Jaobar]], I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_82#Learn_to_be_a_Wikipedia_Administrator_-_New_class_at_MSU|HERE]], were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.

You've just removed an image from [[Maarja Kivi]] citing the fair use image policy. I've re-added it. The image page now says who created it, but to be honest, it's pretty obvious. Could you in future not remove images like that from articles? You haven't even challenged the source. [[User:Esteffect|Esteffect]] 17:38, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

== WikiProject Books from WikiProject Novels ==

Nice to see someone make a bit more of an input to our parent project. I trust we can foster good a cordial relations between such related projects. :: [[User:Kevinalewis|<span style="color: #33C;">Kevinalewis</span>]] : [[User talk:Kevinalewis|<span style="color:#CC9900">^{(Talk Page)}</span>]]/[[User:Kevinalewis/Desk|<span style="color:#CC9900">_(Desk)</span>]] 15:46, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

:Thank you for your kind response, sorry to be so long replying - you caought me unprepared for the "Admin" thing. So I thought I should at least consider it. Short answer I think I will decline. I am member of three WikiProjects currently, very active in WikiProject Novels and less so in WikiProject Sports Olympics and WikiProject Archaeology. So I think at least for the moment this would be a distraction. Maybe later. Also not sure I want the hastle. And that is quite outside your link contents.

So a few things about the interviews:

By the way what prompted you to include the link and suggest the "Admin" thing. Just curious! :: [[User:Kevinalewis|<span style="color: #33C;">Kevinalewis</span>]] : [[User talk:Kevinalewis|<span style="color:#CC9900">^{(Talk Page)}</span>]]/[[User:Kevinalewis/Desk|<span style="color:#CC9900">_(Desk)</span>]] 18:37, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

* Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.

* Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)

* All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.

* All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.

* The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.

== [[User:Shakirfan]] ==

Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at [e-mail] (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name [[User:Jaobar/Admins_to_Interview_List_1|HERE]] instead.

Hello again. Looking at the history to his talk page, I see you have warned [[User:Shakirfan]] numerous times about images with dodgy sources. I've marked quite a few today as copyright violations, but he still seems to be uploading them. I've left a note asking him to abide by the rules. If he continues, how is best to proceed? Report him somewhere to get him a short block? [[User:The JPS|The JPS]] 14:53, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at [e-mail]. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

:Since [[Wikipedia:Vandalism]] says: ''Repeatedly uploading images with no source and/or license information after notification that such information is required '''may also''' constitute vandalism'' (the wording is kind of vague; bolding by me) I would report the user to [[WP:ANI]] (for reporting and discussing incidents that require the intervention of administrators). Unfortunately the issue is complex, since there is no obvious place to report warned nsd and nld image uploaders. [[User:Feydey|feydey]] 15:41, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

::Thanks' for the reply, btw (sorry didn't say 'thanks' sooner -- I got caught up with a heavy vandal). [[User:The JPS|The JPS]] 19:00, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

== [[Syracuse, New York]] ==

Just to let you know why i reverted your edit to the Syracuse page, movie posters are considered to fall under fair use when used in the english wikipedia. -- [[User:Gizzakk|Gizzakk]] 12:23, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

:Hello. Regarding the ''Vanilla Sky'' poster on [[Syracuse, New York]] - I'm afraid that fair use is conditional. The tag says posters qualify as fair use "to illustrate the movie in question or to provide critical analysis of the poster content or artwork... Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement." The Syracuse article clearly does not do this. Technically, the poster shouldn't be on the Tom Cruise page either. [[User:The JPS|The JPS]] 12:35, 20 April 2006 (UTC) [also left on Gizzak's talk page]

:JPS is correct, fair use images are to be used on only specific articles i.e. posters, dvd covers only on the movie articles and the Syracuse article does not fall under that fair use. [[User:Feydey|feydey]] 17:51, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Sincerely,

==Dennis Rader KSN Image==

The image is from a news station in Wichita, KS. The resolution is not that good. The station is probaly copyrighted. He had a job (obviously). Since it comes from a copyrighted station, has the right license, and is in low resolution, the image is fair use and needs to go back up on the page.

== [[:Image:Clement X.JPG]] ==

As I am not 100% familiar with the procedures and policies in the English Wikipedia, I thought you may be able to help me. The image [[:Image:Clement X.JPG]] is tagged as <nowiki>{{Stamp}}</nowiki>. However, it was used in the article about [[Clement X|pope Clement X]]. I removed the image from the article, which leaves the actual image unused at the moment. What is the policy regarding un-used fair-use images (I note Jimbo's email about a year ago stating that non-free images should no longer be uploaded)? Should they be tagged with a specific template? Is there a procedure for reporting/deleting these? Thanks ever so much for your help in advance! --[[User:Lendu|Lendu]] 11:21, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your note on [[User_talk:Sam_Vimes#Time_for_a_new_RfA.3F|my talk page]]. However, I have come to the conclusion that I'm not good adminship material - I've lost a bit of interest in wiki lately, and I'm more happy to contribute to the encyclopedia than to do the janitorial work on it.

== Choky Ice as JimmyNichols for Playgirl.jpg ==

Hello,

My bad I meant Choky Ice!

You removed a lot of my images because the licence was insufficient.

I have send an E mail to the company that made the computer game in question.

I know they have allowed tv series to use the game to immitate ancient battles so I think there is a good chance wikipedia will be allowed to use them as well.(I don't think that will be a problem right? If I get permission?)

I want to ask you not to delete the images or tagg them untill I have received a responds.

== Question on copyright status ==

I created a page about my father, Thomas Eugene Foulks.

Hello Feydey!

Thank you.

I noticed you posted the Reynold Brown's Ben Hur poster online and cited it as:

[[User:DanaFoulks|DanaFoulks]] 21:11, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

"This work is in the public ___domain in that it was published in the United States between 1923 and 1977 and without a copyright notice. Unless its author has been dead for several years, it is copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties. See this page for further explanation."

==A landslide victory for [[User:The_JPS|The JPS]] (aka RFA thanks)==

My 501c3non-profit that promotes electric vehicles would like to use Reynold Brown's Attack of the 50ft Woman poster. We plan on doing a poster/t-shirts that say,"Drive Electric Or Else..." We have submitted a permission request to Warner Bros thinking they have the copyright. If it is not too much trouble, would you know if this poster similarly in the public ___domain?

== Copyvio images that need to be deleted ASAP ==

Hi! If you remember, you had once deleted many of my images which were copyright violations, way back in 2010. Well thanks for that, because I became a more responsible editor and uploader since then. But I have found a few more of them lying in my contributions which went unnoticed. I see that you are an admin, so it will be easier to delete them quickly.

Here are the filenames:

== Extended confirmed protection ==

{{ivmbox|1=Hello, Feydey. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

[[WP:BLUELOCK|Extended confirmed protection]] (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned [[WP:EXTENDEDCONFIRMED|"extended confirmed" user right]] was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 129#New usergroup with autopromotion to implement arbitration "30-500" bans as a page protection|this community discussion]] with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, [[WP:ECP2016|a request for comment]] established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

* '''Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective'''. It should not be used as a first resort.

* '''A bot will post a notification at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard]] of each use'''. MusikBot currently does this by updating [[User:MusikBot/ECPMonitor/Report|a report]], which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review [[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Extended confirmed protection|the protection policy]] carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. <br><small>This message was sent to the administrators' [[Wikipedia:Administrators/Message list|mass message list]]. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:47, 23 September 2016 (UTC)</small> |2=Padlock-blue.svg}}

== Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins ==

Hello,

Please note that [[Time-based One-time Password Algorithm|TOTP]] based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your [[Special:Preferences|preferences page]] in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the [[Help:Two-factor authentication|developing help page]] for additional information. '''Important''': Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Two-Factor_Authentication_now_available_for_admins|thread on the administrators' noticeboard]].

== A new user right for New Page Patrollers ==

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}.

A new user group, [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''New Page Reviewer''']], has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at [[Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/New page reviewer|PERM]]. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Templates|here]] but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at [[WT:NPR]]. <small>''(Sent to all admins)''</small>.[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for theyour reformatting and getting the textupload to wrapWikipedia: properly.

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the [[copyright]] status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the ''exact'' source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source ___domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{BASEPAGENAMEE}}}} this link].

== Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular) ==

Hello, I am a contributer on the online and non commercial encyclopedia,

http://en.wikipedia.org/. I am currently woring on an article dealing with

the Roman military and I have used a number of screenshots made inside the

Rome:Total War game.However... a problem arose ... The licence on

wikipedia only allows me to use them for identification and critical

commentary on the computer or video game in question or the copyrighted

character(s) depicted on the screenshot in question.

ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Could you please allow me to use the screenshots for that particular

article, if you like I could (visibly)mention that the screenshots are from

Rome total war even more as is the case now.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Security|required]] to "have strong passwords and [[Wikipedia:Personal security practices|follow appropriate personal security practices]]." We have [[Special:Permalink/891851004#Return of permissions for compromised administrator accounts|updated]] our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, [[WP:2FA|two-factor authentication]] remains an ''optional'' means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

Sander,

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

Thank you for your concern, however the original warning messages were placed in bad faith over a content dispute, in which the other user decided that instead of discussing the issue it would be much easier to simply label their opponent a vandal.

== Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity ==

The IP comment on my userpage was slightly improperly moved to my talk as the IP wasn't mentioned. Therefore I was led to believe you made the comment (ok, I know that's not true) - so I commented here and kept editing the comment.

Sorry! Please be more careful and I'll do the same. — [[Image:Flag_of_Ottawa%2C_Ontario.svg|20px]] [[Image:Flag of Ontario.svg|20px]] [[Image:Flag of Canada.svg|20px]] <font face="Comic Sans MS" colour="navy" size="-1"><b>[[User:nathanrdotcom|nathanrdotco]][[User:ILovePlankton/My_loyalties_to_my_friends|<font color="#336666">m</font>]] ^{(Got something to say?

== Re ==

Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|policy]] provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to activity within the next month.

Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]]. If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[WP:BN|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].

I dont understand, the screen captures were all taken from programmes that were featured in the articles. I was told by another administrator that screen caps were ok to use in this way. The one you just removed from the eastenders artcile is entirely about the character in the screen capture, taken from that television program and about that television program. If that's not commentry about the programme's contents then i dont know what is.

I do not own a copyright to the original image, however I do have implied permission to use said image in original work. I do not have this in writing, as it is verbal and implied, however, I can obtain this. It's use in the specific artwork is however, my own, and not a copyrighted use of the artwork. It will likely be a few weeks before I can obtain an email for the use, as this happens to be the week of E3, and Bungie Studios has just announced Halo 3. I can cite multiple examples of the use of said images, by myself and others, on the Bungie.net and Bungie.org websites, sanctioned by Bungie, if that will be sufficient. [http://nikon.bungie.org/wallpaper.html This is a Wallpaper Section on Halo.bungie.org], [http://nikon.bungie.org/miscart.html An art section from the same site], a Halo 3 [http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=6909168 Art Thread] (And yes, that's me).

Just as an illustration of the Generation. There isn't musch of a need other than aesthetic. My wish was simply to spruce up the articles for game history a bit, and I figured I could do that best with pop-iconography relevant to the Generations (I.E. 1st generation is plain, black and white, and alludes to Pong and single-dot games, 3rd Generation uses Mario and Arkanoid Bricks, 6th uses a Kinetica bike and the Master Chief, I was planning on doing maybe a Killzone character and a PGR3 car for 7thGeneration.gif, but I have not started this yet.[[User:GameJunkieJim|GameJunkieJim]] (Forgot to sign earlier)

I do understand your reasons. I know nothing's personal, just a CYA situation, and I agree with you. I have added other things to these articles but no other images as of yet. I'm currently looking for qualifiers, as I know there is precedent for using popular culture iconography in original art, and am trying to figure out how to edit these images pages to address that. I'll abide by your deletion if it proves necessary, I just hope it doesn't, as I want to bring more attention to those pages. [[User:GameJunkieJim|GameJunkieJim]] 15:51, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

== Happy First edit day ==

What image of Ms. Sims's 1969 LIFE cover of her official Web site ''would'' be permissible? I've tried different variations of the same pictures and none of them are acceptable? I don't understand, I've given full credit and sources. I don't want to do anytihng wrong, I'm only trying to expand the article. :-( {{unsigned|Captain Caveman}}

Saw this on Pegships's talk:

</div>

;Please take a look, it's about books

[[Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_May_1#Category:Books available as ebooks to Category:Ebooks]] has concluded with a strange result IMHO (no consensus). Or? [[User:Feydey|feydey]] 21:48, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

*If it helps, my vote can be changed to support the renaming. I originated the category name, and filed the strong oppose; Didn't change it after we debated the shortened name pending further voting, so should have annoted that I can live with 'eBooks' as only term in name. I stopped adding titles pending same resolution. <B>[[User:Fabartus|Fra]]</B><font color="green">[[User talk:Fabartus|nkB]]</font> 08:00, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

You should take a look at Uofakevo's (or should I say Kevin Whitney's) user page to see what he thinks of me and you. [[User:DGX|<font color="00FF00">D</font><font color="000000" >G</font>]][[User talk:DGX|<font color="00FF00">X</font>]] 20:34, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to [[Draft:Klassikalised lood|Klassikalised lood]]. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because '''it has no sources'''.

== Regarding "Black Lab". ==

I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

-Marc

[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[:And the Thieves Are Gone]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:

Tayoko has added a quote to her website at http://www.tayoko.net saying that the image may be used freely by and from Wikipedia. Cheers - ToM

<blockquote>'''Likely not meeting notability guidelines. Very little information in this article, no references for 15 years, and this EP only merits a single sentence in [[Joseph Arthur]]'s main article. I searched for ''"And the Thieves Are Gone" "Joseph Arthur"'' and only found self-published reviews and aggregators. Didn't find evidence of the one song being played in "House" beyond IMDB.'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

== RfA thank you ==

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:And the Thieves Are Gone|the article's talk page]].

Thanks feydey,

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify -->
