Why have you deleted the links that I have added ? Because they're in French ? The Fender Bass VI notice is in english language, the information about original colors are useful even in french. This is the same with the strings available, it doesn't matter the language. I really don't understand why to delete useful information for Internet and Bass VI users ... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.27.212.146 (talk • contribs)
Thank you for your reply. I corroborate that's not spam. Too bad for people who are looking for information about Bass VI because theses pages are the most complete on the web about this instrument !!! I will try to add another time, but if the link are still deleted, too bad ...

Look will you stop it. I don't want to spend all my day restoring images i added to articles which other people have unrightly removed. I appreciate your efforts but please stop harassing me. I'd rather you gave me a list of orphaned images rather than sending me a full automated message each time ok? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you?" Contribs 12:07, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
I'd like to ask you a question please.
This nomination was not promoted, but why? 2 people supported alternative 1 and only one weak opposed it. All otheres opposed it before alternative 1 was introduced and never bothered to oppose it one more time. I wonder what the rulls are? Thank you.--Mbz1 16:24, 13 August 2007 (UTC)Mbz1
I am new to Wikipedia, and added my first article this weekend.
I understand the concern you raised, and believe I have addressed it, per the instructions I received, but I just want to be certain that I did so correctly.
I added this GNU FDL information to the www.314th.org website, and on the discussion tab of the page I created, to address your concern:
Note for Wikipedia added August 13, 2007 As instructed by Wikipedia, I placed the following notice on [www.314th.org] (in a bright yellow box at the end of the home page)
"The following copyright information is added pursuant to notice placed on [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/314th_Infantry_Regiment_A.E.F. I hold the copyright to this text and permit its use under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License."
Thank you for your time to tell me if I did this correctly...

Thanks for your note. There were requests for getting the separate images uploaded - what do you think? They're all of different aspect ratios (heights), so combining them with wikimarkup may nor be easy. Send me a word, and I can upload the separate next week. --Janke | Talk 13:26, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi MER-C. Since you're doing 60% of the archiving lately, I decided to check if you favor bot archiving. The system that I helped to set up in July at WP:WQA is:
Ours would be the same, except the counter would be set to '15' since that's the currently active archive. Athaenara and Jehochman are OK with bot archiving. Your opinion is sought. EdJohnston 19:06, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
I notice you made some changes to Template:Di-no source and I'd like to run something by you. I'm not exactly sure how this change should be made or worded, but some additional text should be added to the tag. The template currently dates deletion 7 days later which is almost always correct, however per WP:NFCC, if a fair use image has no source information it can be deleted 48 hours after notification of the uploader under CSD I7. I seem to recall that the old no source tag said something along the lines of "If no source information is provided, this image will be deleted on (7 days later) or 48 hours after the notification of the uploader for fair use images". This tag should have similar wording and I was hoping you could help out. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 23:57, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi There,
why did you delete the DAZ links on several artists? At these artists there are also links to AllMusicGuide, Discog, Freedb etc. These are simular sites as DAZ, DAZ is non commercial and a big music resource which could be interesting for music lovers.
BR, Joyce OE —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Joyce oe (talk • contribs) 10:05:05, August 19, 2007 (UTC).
Well I have the same problem as drummerzone. Why are there links to allmusic, discog, myspace etc but don't you allow DAZ. If you take a look at the music resource websites you will find that DAZ is not as commercial as the others. All other site show advertising, but if you register with DAZ you won't see any advertising anymore. This feature others don't offer. So I don't agree with the fact you've deleted all the links. The links which were added are links to artists pages on DAZ which are very rich and offer more background information then other music resources. F.e. all the live performances are listed. And please see also that DAZ links to wikipedia at every artist page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joyce oe (talk • contribs)
Dear Mer-C,
You consider some external links I've added to Wikipedia as inappropriate. I know Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion (and I fully agree with that). However, I don't think that it is inappropriate to add a link to an external web site where people can find more info, pictures and videos - including relevant data not found on Wikipedia. I feel you've been too strict. Take Thomas Lang why would a link to Drummerworld be allowed, and not to Drummerzone? I find the latter a non commercial and huge music resource, specialized in drums and percussion. I'm looking forward to your reply. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.12.0.194 (talk)

Hi MER-C, Just re a couple of recent FPC closures, I think you've moved TFS Firefighter to the archives without a decision (obviously it's not promoted), and closed Fields outside benambra but left it on the project page. BTW, great job on the closing of candidates you've been doing. Cheers, --jjron 01:58, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I noticed you reverted vandalism done by the anon. user to Copyright. I have checked the block log and talk page and found out the IP address has already been blocked for vandalism before. When I encounter a previously-banned vandal, what warning should I give? Do I give a 4 or 4im warning? Also, is it severe enough to report to AIV? Optakeover 12:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that you sent me a message back in June pertaining to a image called 'Image:551602686_l.jpg'. I don't remember uploading a picture with that file name nor putting it on a page. Could you respond back to me on how my name was attached to this pic. Thanks. CRocka05 19:05, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I have received this message from you.
Why do you suppress my link www.freewebs.com/clickforcharity ? If you think the website doesn't "comply with the guideliness for external links" then you won't see any objection if I suppress the link charityusa.com since this is the same kind of site that I mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.115.241.5 (talk)
Sorry but I have read WP:EL and I didn't read that the external links hadn't to be hosted on free web hosts!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.115.241.5 (talk)
Well this is written "NORMALLY" and the site doesn't have any "personal dimension" since I just presents links... I'm not "telling the story of my life"... It's stupid to apply the rule in a strict way because we can also consider that the site http://charityusa.com doesn't really respect the guideliness for external links since it presents commercial sites, which i don't do on my website...
Hi MER-C,
Just checked the recent FPC promotions. I wonder if the Tree Lion promotion shouldn't have been the first version rather than the second one?
Even after the second one was added, the remaining votes were 'support either', other than one, and that was to 'support original'. No one who voted earlier changed their vote to the second version either.

MER-C, you recently made a minor change to the Business Bay article. I wanted to discuss this change on the Business Bay Discussion Page. Since I am not sure if you constantly check the pages you have edited, I have decided to inform you of this. Please do not respond on this talk page. Instead, please respond to my message on the Business Bay talk page. Thank you. Leitmanp 05:25, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
I am sorry, but I do not understand how the image is a copyright violation. It is an image of a board at the Business Bay site. On the Business Bay Talk page, you said that you think it is a copyright violation by the advertiser. How is this possible? A company cannot violate its own copyright. Or are you saying that the image is a copyright violation because it is an image of an advertisement? At WP:IFD you also stated that the work is derivative. As it states on the image's site the photo was taken by Imre Solt on 30 January 2007. A link to the image is there, as is the approval to use the image. An explanation is needed about all of this please. Thank you very much. Leitmanp 22:34, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi MER-C. Just an oddity - saw you rv'd a spam link but something odd happended at the same time and the article lost a bunch of text. I've rv'd one version back. Don't know if it was a tool you were using that cuased the issue ? Pedro | Chat 11:35, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
I do not understand what is wrong with the external links to more Detroit Pistons statistical information that is very insightful and interesting.
This is from your What To Link Section:
What should be linked
1. Articles about any organization, person, web site, or other entity should link to the official site if any.
2. An article about a book, a musical score, or some other media should link to a site hosting a copy of the work if none of the "Links normally to be avoided" criteria apply.
3. Sites that contain neutral and accurate material that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright issues, amount of detail (such as professional athlete statistics, movie or television credits, interview transcripts, or online textbooks) or other reasons.
4. Sites with other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article, such as reviews and interviews.
The links I provided are very accurate and insightful Pistons statistics. I do not consider this as spam and it is not violating any policies.
If anything the need4sheed.com link on the Detroit Pistons entry ie the #1 Pistons Website on the Internet" that is spam. She is promoting her wallpapers and Rasheed Wallace site all over your site, but that seems to be fine. Check out your Rasheed Wallace entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.181.102.85 (talk • contribs)

Hi MER-C,
Yeah, thanks for that. Tough call alright! I was amazed the amount of interest it generated, so at least it wasn't a boring nomination. Just so you know, I would have been a bit disappointed if it had not gone through (with I think it was 14 supports), but wouldn't have disputed if you thought that was the way it balanced out.

It is the official website of the radio station, but it is on the blacklist, which is odd since it has been in use by WBIG now for about 7 to 7 1/2 months.
