[edit] Delinking dates on your user page
Shouldn't the dates be delinked on your user page in the Milestones in Edit Count section as per mosnum?--PremKudvaTalk 03:41, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
- Greetings - thanks for your message!
- As you may know, MOSNUM previously recommended that they be linked. Given that opinion swayed from one way to the other, I am anticipating it may swing back the other way. Hence, I am not investing time to go change all the dates. Cheers, Johntex\talk 14:26, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Texas Longhorns
Hi John, just to give you a heads up, as you seem to be the primary contributor to the series of articles, I plan on going ahead with the move of the Texas Longhorns football seasons articles to the plural form. You didn't seem to feel too strongly one way or the other on the talk page. I think the move is important because it keeps consistency across the Wikiproject College football's articles. I'll leave a redirect from the singular.
By the way, outstanding job on those UT team articles. You've set the standard for those of us who work on cfb team articles.
Strikehold (talk) 17:35, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Strikehold, thanks for the heads-up about the page moves. I appreciate the courtesy even though of course I don't own the articles. It is always nice when someone takes the time to not only discuss their proposal, as you did on the Talk page, but also to notify the major contributor(s) as well.
- Thanks for the compliment also. I think they are in pretty good shape overall, though of course I know they have some room for improvement always. The 2007 article may be close to FA quality. I was working it up in the off-season but I ran out of time when the new season started.
- Is there a bot yet to fix all the articles to keep them from pointing to the redirects, or do we still have to do that manually? That work is rather tedious, but it should really be done if we are moving the pages. Best, Johntex\talk 19:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

==Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:Texas Flag at DKR - North Texas vs Texas 2006.jpg==
Thank you for uploading Image:Texas Flag at DKR - North Texas vs Texas 2006.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. dave pape (talk) 06:02, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request for Comment on College Football logos
Users opposing the use of College Football team logos being used in articles through out the College Football project have filed a Request for Comment trying to ban use of team logos. As I am sure you know our current standard/system of using logos legitimately with fair use rationales do not violate any wikipedia policy. It would be appreciated if you could take a moment and voice you opinion on the subject here: RFC: Use of logos on sports team pages. Thank you in advance and thank you for your contributions to the College Football Project. Rtr10 (talk) 04:48, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
- Congrats on the win, but in the subject above, they again seem to be claiming consensus and acting upon it. I do not believe they have such consensus. Your thoughts? — BQZip01 — talk 05:35, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
[edit] List of Texas Aggie terms renaming
Howdy Johntex. The List of Texas Aggie terms is up at featured list candidates. On the talk page, there is a discussion about what the correct name of the article should be. Your input on the matter would be much appreciated. Thanks and Gig em! Oldag07 (talk) 23:59, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

You are a user who responded to RFC: Use of logos on sports team pages.

[edit] New image project
Hi. This little form letter is just a courtesy notice to let you know that a proposal to merge the projects Wikipedia:WikiProject Free images, Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use, Wikipedia:WikiProject Moving free images to Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia:WikiProject Illustration into the newly formed Wikipedia:WikiProject Images and Media has met with general support at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Files. Since you're on the rosters of membership in at least one of those projects, I thought you might be interested. Conversation about redirecting those projects is located here. Please participate in that discussion if you have any interest, and if you still have interest in achieving the goals of the original project, we'd love to have you join in. If you aren't interested in either the conversation or the project, please pardon the interruption. :) Thanks. Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:04, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] New CfD
I have proposed a new CfD concerning a derm category. Basically, I want to start using the term "cutaneous" instead of "skin" for most derm categories. Would that be ok with you?

- Support – per nom. SimonPucher (talk) 09:10, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Support – I agree cutaneous is more correct than skin and it should be changed. I appreciate kilbad for taking the initiative to fix it.

[edit] Proposed deletion of Kelby Shults alleged harrasement incident
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kelby Shults alleged harrasement incident, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- There is no good reason to keep this account of an unproven allegation against a school student.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
