Kentucky had 11 electoral votes. Give Kentucky 11 electoral votes and then add up all of Seymour's other electoral votes. The old map had it wrong so I can see why the map is in error. Also, go to electionatlas.org to see the electoral votes.--Tilden76 (talk) 18:19, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's been commonly accepted that the Red Faction & Mining Colony on Mars are related to the Mimoto Mars Colony (as in the Journey Man Project game itself, it describes the years of oppression and mining that occured long before the colony was finished). The development team for the "Red Faction" series has been rumored to use this as a "spiritual" influence for the storyline behind "Red Faction", though have never officially denied or approved claims, though fi you look at dates, times, and incidents in both games, they fall well into place. I've added a Legacy section to the journeyman page, and added that notation there that you removed from the header... i agree, it was a bad place to put it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.186.36.65 (talk) 21:24, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, good work on VonBraun (Alien Planet), and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to VonBraun (Alien Planet)? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET if you wish to review some of the different citation methods. Thanks!  BRIAN0918  02:47, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Ike.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 20:15, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Delta 3 Rocket.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Thanks for uploading Image:Mars96Arrival.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:26, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for reverting vandalism on Wikipedia!

Be sure to put warning tags on the vandal's user talk page (such as {{subst:test}}, {{subst:test2}}, {{subst:test3}}, {{subst:test4}}). Add each of these tags on the vandal's talk page, in sequential order, after each instance of vandalism. Adding warnings to the talk page assists administrators in determining whether or not the user should be blocked. If the user continues to vandalize pages after you add the {{subst:test4}} tag, request administrator assistance at Request for Intervention. Again, thank you for helping to make Wikipedia better.

Thank you for creating the many spacecraft articles that you have. Please go through and add {{spacecraft-stub}} to them. I added it to a few, but you really should add appropriate stubs, especially when creating articles, since it is easier then. Hu 23:55, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you are interested in Russia-related themes, you may want to check out the Russia Portal, particularly the Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. You may even want to add these boards to your watchlist.

You recently reverted a change of date back to "1953 to". Do you know why it says 1953 ? The Sentinel was earlier than that. Did something happen in 1953 ? -- Beardo 06:48, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Kyle 1009.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 under fair use (see 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 "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 criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

thank you for "reverting vandalism" in a section of the article on American Idol on August 28, 2006, at 18:48 that wasn't vandalism, it was actually my own reversion of vandalism that I had discovered and I decided to correct, but I didn't know what to write, so I simply put "Insert real information here." I know that sentence went on and on and on, but you must understand how deeply I was insulted when I saw "reverting vandalism" appear after my own edit. A heartfelt apology would be appreciated. now. 207.255.66.200 04:37, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Andy120290! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule proboards\d{1,3}\.com, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy.

Hey, I made a small addition in the "2001, A Space Odyssey" article explaining how the name HAL had been chosen (from IBM). I just saw that you deleted it; any particular reason for that ? I'd really like to know why. [email protected]

Thanks for uploading Image:LUNAR_A.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 21:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 21:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Satellite_of_Love_KTMA.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia ^Talk 02:38, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Image:Mars96Orbiter.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD i4.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Russavia 16:28, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Recovery Vehicles.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pendragon Flying Machine.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Hello. Recently I noticed your anti-vandal work on the John Young (astronaut) article. The easiest way to clean up vandalism and spam is via the rollback tool. If you are willing to abide by the rollbacker rules (see WP:ROLLBACK), I would be more than happy to grant you access to this function. If, after reading WP:ROLLBACK, you promise to follow the rollback rules to the best of your ability, just drop a quick message on my talk page saying as much and I will update your rights.

The article List of Bum Reviews with Chester A. Bum episodes has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

crufty linkfarm, no list item is notable. no independent sources. no reliable sources.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:18, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't use editsummaries like you did in this revert. I think it is inappropriate and unnecessary. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 21:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd agree with that comment. As well as being quite unpleasant, it's unlikely to change the behaviour of the person whose work you're apparently criticising. HiLo48 (talk) 00:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you revert my edit? I didn't do anything bad to the article, I fixed a formatting error and removed a double space. I'm not going to revert your edit right now, so as to not create an edit war, but unless you give me a good reason I'm going to anyway. Thank you. -99.255.188.158 (talk) 03:35, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_the_Future_Part_II you removed the whole "major flaw" section. If you have a problem with the way it was written then by all means change it. But to remove the entire section labeling it "unencyclopedic" is ridiculous. It's a perfectly valid section on a flaw in the plot of the film. Atmourad (talk) 23:39, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In your user page, you wrote you're "addicted to presidents", that you're an America-o-phile; that you're a WW2 buff (many Americans are -- national pride -- ever wonder why there are few Vietnam War buffs? We lost that one, but perhaps we'd not like to think about it). If you have these views, you'll want articles about the US presidency (and Congress) to be fair and neutral and not to try to cover up the flaws or downplay America's failings. If we sugarcoat our country, gloss over serious errors, then how will these ever get fixed? It's important; a malfunctioning presidency or Congress can hurt you directly if you're an American (like I am) and if you consider yourself a citizen like I do. If our nation trots off to wars which were ill-planned or ill-suited or wasteful, or has a Congress beholden to special interests which has rigged the rules of re-election, the persons who get hurt are us -- ordinary Americans -- since we're the ones taxed to pay for these wars, or sometimes the soldiers in these wars, who have trouble finding good jobs because whole industries are outsourced to foreign lands because of crazy things like an absurd tax structure.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Consider your life. Are you happy with your life? Is everything hunky-dorey? Got enough money? Got a good job? Got a girl? Most likely, if you're like most Americans, you want more, and part of the reason I'll bet is because of serious political flaws which mess up your life, and perhaps you just haven't realized it yet? That is, have you considered the truth-value of statements such as the following: Federal government screws Andy or US presidents screw Andy or Congress screws Andy or (check out the IRS's complex tax code -- 70K pages). And, what opinion do you have about these statements? I'm wondering what you think.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe you really seek neutrality in articles like you claim. The articles are fairly well balanced now (7/8 positive/neutral, 1/8 criticism perhaps, which seems fair perhaps to most readers.) I think you identify with presidents somehow, that is, you feel the criticism which is directed at presidents is directed at you-as-an-American (it isn't). The president is the nation's top celebrity, and as Americans, we worship celebrities, movie stars, powerful people, and want to have pictures of their fancy cars in tabloids (or in Wikipedia) while trying not to acknowledge to ourselves that we pay for those fancy presidential limousines. And perhaps you'd like the "criticism" sections removed since you think, on some level, that these sections hurt America's image (they don't -- being strong enough to admit flaws is what makes America great, in my view, so being able to criticize ourselves shows we're truly a great country and have the candor and integrity to highlight flaws. Further, how will flaws ever get FIXED if they're covered up or buried in articles or glossed over? This stuff is important. I've made a solid case in the "talk" section about why the recentism tag is bogus (look at Obama's picture at the top of the article, the most recent president) but I've let it stay there in deference to you; I made a number of changes so the criticism section is balanced (so it meets the ten-year-rule) which you haven't acknowledged. And you have not addressed my comments on the talk pages. Please do so, with reasoned arguments, if you can.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The current article format now, with criticism at the bottom, makes it easier for users to find what they want, whether it's the gloss and the limousines and smiling presidents (most of the article) or the criticism at the bottom. If you want to move specific criticisms throughout the article, that's a LOT of editing. I advise against it, but if you want to move stuff around, I'll watch you closely to make sure nothing gets omitted. And please consider removing the tags; I'm considering adding tags of my own all over the article to highlight what I think are serious POV concerns, presidential-worship, lack of balance, etc etc etc.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're what's great about Wikipedia. Respect yourself. I respect your Wikipedia contributions. Please consider restoring your user page and erase all my nagging comments above. (I must have been on the rag.)--Tomwsulcer (talk) 23:53, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Mars96Orbiter.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:46, 5 December 2009 (UTC).

Hello there! As an editor who has posted a comment in one of the recent Peer Reviews, GANs or FACs of International Space Station, or who has contributed to the article recently, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind commenting in the current Featured Article Candidacy with any suggestions you have for article improvements (and being bold and making those changes), whether or not you feel any issues you have previously raised have been dealt with, and, ultimately, if you believe the article meets the Featured Article guidelines. This is the fourth FAC for this article, and it'd be great to have it pass. Many thanks in advance, Colds7ream (talk) 16:46, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
