Thank you. --Cini 11:21, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

You're the first ever to say "Per Cini." Just wanted to say thank you. Yes, I am vain.--Cini 16:57, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, I just hough you had a very good reason. The Republican 18:32, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

As you requested, your username has now been changed from Cini to Auger Martel. If you haven't done it already, please remember to move your user page and your talk page. Redux 15:13, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Much appreciated. Thanks again.--Auger Martel 15:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you by the way. My vote stays at Delete until they can provide independent press showing the group has some notability. Best, Gwernol 17:58, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

No worries, appreciate the message. Cheers. --Auger Martel 17:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you that thy haven't reachd notability yet. I will be interesting to see if thyey get some real press coverage and are back in 6 months. Best, Gwernol 12:58, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Much appreciated. Thanks.--Auger Martel 13:06, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Not a problem. I think every plural noun in the English language has been part of a non-notable band name in the form "The Xes". Anyway, I have no doubt you were acting in good faith -- I wish I could expand the article, but Martinican popular music isn't exactly well-documented. Tuf-Kat 15:54, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your understanding. It is greatly appreciated. My apologies once more. Cheers.--Auger Martel 15:57, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Please review my comments regarding the AfD for Family Groove Company at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Family Groove Company and see if you still wish to have this article deleted. Thank you, Dismas|^(talk) 02:27, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I have left my response.--Auger Martel 04:53, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. Dismas|^(talk) 06:16, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Just wondering but this really matter. The video isn't actully being hosted by wikipedia. As it is not being hosted b Wikipedia, surely linking to the video is within the law ? Niall123 15:50, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

I was referring to the actual link itself, rather than being hosted on wikipedia. If you want to include another version of it, I have no problem with it. For what it's worth, I think it would be better off in the External Links section rather than a whole section for itself.--Auger Martel 16:25, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. I created the Video section as an addition to External Links. Just thought that having a video section on its own would be more apt. What the story though with you tube videos which are esentially TV rips of FIFA copyright material ? Is posting links here to them ok ? Niall123 17:32, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Posting links to them are fine I think although YouTube will sometimes remove the content due to copyright breaches. What happened is that when I clicked on the older video, it came with a message that the video breached the copyright on the site. Unless some other people object, I think it is fine for a new link to the video.--Auger Martel 18:07, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for even reading my final comments, it is an issue that needs (or alreadly may have been, I'm sometimes out of the loop) to be addressed. I'm not entirely sure of where you would post, but I recommend trying, Wikipedia:Village pump. Any one of the cats could work, but I think policy would be the best. Thanks, Yanksox 11:45, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Please review this newest AfD, your opinion would be appreciated. PT ^(s-s-s-s) 00:42, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for taking part in my RfA. The RfA was not successful, mostly because I did a pretty bad job of presenting myself. I'll run again sometime in the next few months, in the hopes that some will reconsider.

In the meantime, one of the projects I'm working on is A Wikimedia Administrator's Handbook. This is a wikibook how-to guide intended to help new administrators learn the ropes, as well as to simply "demystify" what adminship entails. If you are an administrator, please help out with writing it, particularly on the technical aspects of the tools. Both administrators and non-administrators are welcome to help link in and sort all of the various policies regarding the use of these tools on wikipedia in particular (as well as other projects: for example, I have almost no experience with how things work on wiktionary or wikinews). Users who are neither familiar with policy or the sysop tools could be of great help by asking questions about anything that's unclear. The goal is to get everything together in one place, with a narrative form designed to anticipate the reader's next question.

A second project, related but not entailed, is a book on wikimedia in general, with a history of how various policies evolved over time, interesting trivia (e.g., what the heck was "wikimoney" about?), and a history of how the wikimedia foundation itself came about and the larger issues that occurred during its history (such as the infamous "Spanish Fork").

Again, thanks for your input on the RfA, and thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide for the handbook. --SB_Johnny|^talk|_books 14:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Auger,

Thanks for the FF contributions. Just one small thing — most of the "dead links" for cover images are not dead, just put there awaiting someone putting a cover image up (or to encourage someone to do so:-). If you can find images for Black Vein Prophecy and others that would be wonderful. I must get round to contacting the webmasters of some of the fan sites to see if they can provide this material.

Oh, and I wouldn't worry about correcting spelling on the talk pages if I were you. Life's too short. :-) —WebDrake 19:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

• Please pardon the intrusion. This tin of thanks spam is offered to everyone who commented or !voted (Support, Oppose or Neutral) on my recent RfA. I appreciate the fact that you care enough about the encyclopedia and its community to participate in this forum.
• There are a host of processes that further need community support, including content review (WP:GAN, WP:PR, WP:FAC, and WP:FAR). You can also consider becoming a Wikipedia Ambassador. If you have the requisite experience and knowledge, consider running for admin yourself!
• If you have any further comments, input or questions, please do feel free to drop a line to me on my talk page. I am open to all discussion. Thanks • Ling.Nut (talk) 02:15, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the articles Dorian Tyrell and Niko (The Mask) are suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether they should be deleted.

The articles will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dorian Tyrell (3nd nomination) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Niko (The Mask) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussions focus on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the articles during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion templates from the articles. Cheers, theFace 17:12, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Orestes matacena cameron diaz.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently 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. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:14, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
