Hello! As a Wikipedia:WikiProject Automobiles member, I just thought you might want to input your opinions on an important discussion we're currently having about whether articles regarding similar vehicles should be merged into one or split by brand. If you would like to comment or read further, please see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Automobiles#Articles of Similar Vehicles. Thank you in advance for your thoughts and feedback.

Hi Solitude, I have another series of FP I would be grateful if you could have a look and tell me what you think. If you don't want to be part of my little sub FPC voting, could you please tell me? Thanks --Fir0002 01:14, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Hi, Solitude
For quite some time I have been uploading multiple images of the same subject as a Featured Picture Candidate, and, unknown (until recently) to me, this was causing considerable problems in the promoting/not promoting stage of the Featured Picture Candidates.
Recently Solipsist informed me of the problem and came up with the suggestion of holding my own semi Featured Picture Candidates page.
I would like you and several others (User:Sj, User:Boffy B, User:Solipsist, User:Chris 73) to be the people who vote in this.
I would greatly appreciate your opinions on the photos.
The link to the page is User:Fir0002/FPCandidates
Thanks --Fir0002 08:12, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the updating of DYK. Was a bit short on time myself. Please note that I've made a template to aid in the notification that pages have been used on DYK to the user (see Template:UpdatedDYK). [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 13:18, Nov 25, 2004 (UTC)

The Wikipedia logo with the Santa hat on top is cute. Next Halloween, someone should add a scary looking face on it, kinda of like the tradition of putting pumpkins with faces outside your home on that holiday. Maybe for the New Year someone will put a party hat with some party streamers flowing down the side?
Anyways, please see the Featured Article Candidate nomination for the Rachelle Waterman article.
Thank you for your contribution!
Cheers,

OK, I gave in to your holiday spirit and added your WikiSanta to my user page.
I feel better already.

Greetings. I am sadened that your contribution to this discussion was to try to stick a troll label on me. What I am attempting to achieve is to challenge the misinterpretation of the vote that was held on the Clitoris talk page. The question asked for the vote was:
The vote therefore clearly was either or issue. This one or that one. This is now being (deliberately) misinterpreted as the picture must stay at all costs. What is truly bizarre is that the picture does not even display the subject of the article itself. Sadly your contribution has not been helpful. - Robert the Bruce 03:02, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Video Poker machine payout tables only represent a theoretical payout percentage. The vast majority of gamers cannot achieve that payout percentage because they do not play correctly.
It is essential to draw correctly depending on the content of each dealt hand, and there are strategy tables devised by computer which determine how to do so, depending on the payout table. (Hence you need different strategy tables for different payout tables!)
My ambition is to add such strategy tables to the Video Poker article, but I can't just copy-and-paste such strategies from an existing book due to copyright. To get around that problem, I have an off-the-shelf analytical program that allows the creation of strategy tables based on a weighting of difficulty vs. accuracy. These tables are slightly different than the published ones, but still accomplish the desired positive payoff.
If you're interested in getting a good feel for this, there is a training program called "WinPoker" available from Zamzow Software, (in the U.S.), that allows you to practice, as well as automatically run through a great number of hands using a given payout table and strategy.
Cheers,
--DV 03:41, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I've just done some archiving of Did you know facts at Wikipedia:Recent additions and saw that even though you added some facts, you forgot scores of others. Would you please use the list at Template talk:Did you know the next time, so we're sure no fact is lost in the archiving process? Thanks! :-) [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 21:00, Nov 30, 2004 (UTC)
I was simply adding the message to each article that was already listed as an FA - there was no editorial decision on my part. Many of those listed items at that time did not go through any process other than somebody adding them and nobody removing them. -- mav 07:54, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Solitude: since your arrival in wikipedia is after the reorganization of the Brilliant Prose section, nowadays the FAC, i understand that you have no clue of how things worked back then. So please, refrain from making comments like misterious additions by mav or Emsworth adding tags, otherwise you are making a fool of yourself. If you want to criticise something, thats ok, but at least know what you are talking about. If you do want to know how things worked, i'll be happy to answer any question because i used, back then, to spend some time in this isseues. Cheers, muriel@pt 13:35, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
First, I appreciate the general efforts and yours of improving general quality of the articles. But, the wikipedia was not 400,000 articles all the time and the featured standard evolved. So, please, do not judge peoples decisions then by today's standards, which are the only ones you know. I found your suggestion of Maverick doing mysterious tag additions very close of a personal attack, but i did assume good faith and that is why i wrote the message above. Have fun with Farc, with wikilove, muriel@pt 09:21, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)
Hi Solitude - I've changed your edit at Scots Pine back to standard taxobox style, it was agreed by the Wikipedia:WikiProject Tree of Life group a while back that thumbed pics don't look good in taxoboxes because of the multiple framing it produces. I've used the full image tag that you'd linked in, though. - MPF 11:38, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

On Wikipedia:Featured article removal candidates you said: "Yet again a mediocre article mysteriously promoted by Maveric149." There is nothing "mysterious" about it, and your tone is less than cordial. All I did was put the featured tag on every article that was then a featured article. I DID NOT PROMOTE THOSE ARTICLES! --mav 02:14, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Happy Wikibreak!
On a more positive use of the term "mysterious", I am curious to know what the POTD template was supposed to do?
I've added it to my user page with the hopes that it will spring to life with something interesting.
So far, it only seems to sit there, with the date showing up. I was kind of hoping it did something more than that.
If you come back before the New Year with a "Happy New Year Wikipedia" logo, I will be sure to place it on my user page!
Cheers,

Hi. I'm just checking if you ever heard back from Peter Welleman about the images listed on WP:PUI for 7 December, please note so, thanks. -- Infrogmation 06:18, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)
You were kind enough to contribute to the Wikipedia:Untagged images project; I beg to draw your attention to part 2 of the project - there are about 12,000 more images in need of tagging. Any assistance you could provide would be most welcome. thanks --Tagishsimon (talk)
Do you just auto-tag images which don't have copyright information? If this is a human process, please tag images which are clearly public domain with Template:PD-art. I just did so for a few Pompeii images. I would really hate if some obviously PD image got deleted because it was tagged as "unverified".--Eloquence* 05:06, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)

Hi Solitude,
I'm not sure if you are still around, but it looks like you might still drop by from time to time. The picture Image:Mahameru-volcano.jpeg that you uploaded is making a reappearance as Pic of the Day tomorrow. I've used the same caption as last time, but any corrections can be made at Wikipedia:Picture of the day/August 10, 2005. In particular, I noticed that the source informaton on the picture isn't particularly clear. We have it credited to Jan-Pieter Nap — if that is yourself, I would normally include a link to your user page, if it isn't the image description page could use a link to its source. -- Solipsist 07:33, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi Solitude, You commented to my IP address so: "Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism." Could you elaborate what on earth you're talking about so I can work out if you're directing those non-too-friendly words at myself or just someone else at this IP? And yes, I should register as a user, I'll do that asap.
Back on November 16, 2004, you removed the featured tag from Freemasonry with a "to talk" note, but I don't see on the talk page archive that there was any discussion there. Do you remember what the rationale was? Thanks.--SarekOfVulcan 17:43, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

What's the point in leaving people meaningless notes? The article on natural burial has a note attached that states it is not written in the formal tone expected of an Encyclopedia entry. I modified it and made the tone less personal in how it was phrased. I didn't change the substance of the article other than making it less personal and correcting a minor error.
The article was reverted, and I was left a note that stated "Your experiment worked". I attempted to contribute, and my attempt was nullified. My experiment didn't work, or your note to me was not meaningful.
Did it make you feel good to trash someones attempt at a contribution? I hope so.
Unless you have a reasonable explanation, that was my last attempt at a contribution.

Thanks for uploading Image:Theo van Gogh.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ilse@ 22:47, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I was trying to find the source of this photo. Are you John Kerstholt or do you know him personally? I can't seem to find this anywhere online. I trust you enough as an editor that I won't mark this as having no source, but when you get back to Wikipedia, I'd appreciate it if you could add some more details so that someone else can verify the licensing.

Hi Solitude, you were on the list of members at WikiProject Automobiles and we are introducing a new way of listing members, as the old list was becoming too long. Our new method involves having all of our members in a category.
To add yourself to the category just add the userbox to your user page by putting {{Wiki Auto Project}} where you want the userbox. Alternatively if you don't like the userbox you can add [[Category:WikiProject Automobiles members|Solitude]] to your userpage.
If you no longer wish to be a member of the project, simply don't add the userbox or category, there's no pressure. Thanks for your time, James086Talk | Contribs 04:26, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Jill Ker Conway.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. High on a tree (talk) 23:26, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:L Ron Hubbard.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it may be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Cirt (talk) 19:35, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello Solitude,
Long ago, in this edit to my Talk page, you asked me to upload a higher-resolution version of Image:Tazawako.jpg, and I promised to do so ... some day. Today I uploaded a new scan at higher resolution, and with much higher JPEG quality. It's available on Commons as Image:Tazawako.jpg. The names are the same. I've requested deletion of the old, low-quality Wikipedia image; as soon as it happens the new file will automatically take its place. Sorry it took so many years to upload this!
Image:Sea gulls Solitude 1.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:Image:Laughing Gulls on sand.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[Image:Laughing Gulls on sand.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 07:07, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:KingCourthouse.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.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 05:55, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:L Ron Hubbard.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image which is not under a free license or in the public domain and it has not been used in any article for more than seven days.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:53, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Wikisanta.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:04, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Margaret Hassan.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 13:19, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
Greetings Solitude-
My name is Randall Livingstone, and I am a doctoral student at the University of Oregon, studying digital media and online community.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:The Road from Coorain.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 23:27, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Alphamethyltryptamine.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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 17:22, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
