Thanks for uploading Image:Gunnerkrigg Court Orientation.png. 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 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. 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).
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 "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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?

for your kind words. If you need any help with anything, feel free to ask at the Help desk, me (I may not get your message right away though), or another kind user. Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 17:06, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Hey there! I noticed on your userpage that you are looking to be adopted - has anybody offered yet? If not, I'd be interested in adopting you, if you are okay with that. Just leave a message for me here. All the best, TheMoridian 20:22, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
1. Join a couple of wikiprojects and start contributing to them.
2. Get familiar with wikipedia code.
3. Complete a nice, low-maintenance userpage.
If you want, I can help you with these things - it's up to you now on how to want to progress. Leave me another message on my talk page (here) with whether you wantassignments or not, what you want to do, and we can get started straight away!! All the best, TheMoridian 08:59, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

This is what I have in my signature box (when you're logged in wikipedia, click on 'My preferences' in the top right corner). If you want, use my signature as a template for yours - just change the font, colours .etc. to what suits you best. Here's an example: if you type [[User:Terraskye|<big><span style="font-family: monotype corsiva"><span style="color:black">Te</span><span style="color:red">rra</span></span></big>]] in the signature box in 'my preferences', you will get Terra. Notice how the 'User:Terraskye|' part at the start makes the signature into a link to your userpage! * Also, make sure that when you've put your signature in the sig box, the box underneath (some statement about raw signatures .etc.) is CHECKED! Otherwise it may not work properly. Hope this helps you :-)

Well done for completing your first task! All the best, TheMoridian 09:35, 7 May 2008 (UTC) |
Use this template if you want:
((Userbox
|id = [[image|pixel size]]
|id-c = colour
|info = message
|info-c = colour
|info-fc = colour
))
ID = the picture to go on the left hand side.
ID-C = the colour of the picture box on the left hand side.
Info = the message on the right.
Info-c = the colour of the message box on the right.
Info-fc = the font colour of the message.
Here's an example:
((Userbox
|id = [[Image:Gnome-help.svg|40px]]
|id-c = Red
|info = This user likes to save new users from drowning.
|info-c = White
|info-fc = Red
))
To create:
If you can already do these just ignore me (I'm just pathetic with computers).
You don't have to do one like this if you don't want to, you can do a double picture one if you want. I've not tried them yet... hey, that can be my assignment!
I final note - be careful which image you put in the userbox. I recently had all of my images removed because the copyright doesn't cover userspaces - just check the copyright stuff below the image. When you've finished just leave a message on my talk page. All the best, TheMoridian 07:47, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Well done for completing your second task (and without me telling you, your third!!) All the best, TheMoridian 12:50, 9 May 2008 (UTC) |
I'm really stuck for ideas now, so the next assignment I can give is to work on your userpage. What you're looking for is a nice, personal, low-maintenance page - the Design Centre is a great place for help and ideas, and most users don't mind you using bits of their pages that you like (me included). This tas is slightly longer-term - but aside from continuing your contributions, there's little left for you to do now! I'll keep an eye on your userpage to see how it goes - if you need any ideas, help .etc., shout me on my talk page! All the best, TheMoridian 12:50, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
I see you were listed as a participant in the League of Copy-Editors so it seems likely you can ... The thing is the Military history wikiproject urgently needs prose pros to help with our best articles. Milhist covers a broad range of interesting and varied subjects from film to biography, battles to weaponry, and Roman emperors to twentieth-century dictators. In Milhist, A-Class has become the last port of call before FAC and we are looking for people to help identify prose and MoS issues at A-Class A-Class Reviews and help fix them prior to featured article candidacy. We also have a copy-editing section in our Logistics Dept and that can always use experienced copy-editors. For most of our articles, you don't need to be a specialist in the subject matter, just good with words.
If you think you can help, please do! Thanks for your time, --ROGER DAVIES talk 04:20, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi Terra! I’ve not checked on you for a while, so I’m just catching up. Your userpage is coming on well – it is a really big task to complete, I spent months refining my page! Remember: if you need help with anything at all, just leave a message on my talk page. My wikipedia activity is back to its usual level now my exams are over, so I normally respond to queries within a day or so.
Now while I was looking at your userpage, I noticed the Kindness campaign, which I have never heard of. I was wondering: what sort of tasks/ duties does the campaign do, and is there a culture among the participants? I could obviously explore the project space for this; but I always feel that project info is best from an insider. All the best, TheMoridian 07:58, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Hello former LOCE member :)
This is an invitation for you to join a brand-new WikiProject that aims to improve the articles tagged for copy edit. This is pretty important to Wikipedia because there are now over 4,000 such articles, some of which need quite a bit of help. This is not a clone of the LOCE because we will not deal with requests for copy edits, but will happily make improvements to articles at our own pace. If you're interested, sign up at the project page!

Hi,
I don't know if you're still active on Wikipedia, but anyway, I noticed that in April/May 2008 you did a lot of work on the Gunnerkrigg Court article. I seem to be the de facto caretaker of that article now, and I'm working on trying to get it to Good Article status...I've been working on it on my own for a few weeks, but recently another guy has started getting involved. If you're still active, we would welcome you to check out the article and see if there's anything you'd like to contribute...I think you'll find that it looks a lot different now than it did when you last saw it, but hopefully for the better.
Thanks! Politizer (talk) 05:36, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
