Would you be willing to license :Image:Map of USA with state names.svg as or any other such cc license? I ask because for now, Commons:Image:United States 2004 election maps.png is technically a copyright violation, since it combines a GFDL image (:Image:2004 US elections map.png, which was produced from your SVG file) with cc-by-2.0 images.

The whole point is that it is unencyclopedic because the text has been deliberately garbled, not that it is an orphan. The only two editors to speak on this were myself, being the nominator, and the uploader, who agreed with its deletion. Perhaps you simply misread the disussion. Thanks.--User:Pharos 01:44, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Since images can't be undeleted, I'm quite cautious about deleting them. I agree that the image is nearly worthless. But the people who edit Nazism should be making that decision, not me. I suggest that you remove it from the article, and relist it on WP:IFD. That way editors watching Nazism will notice the image's removal, and will have a week to express any objection.

Great work listing unverified orphans on IFD! But when you do that, you need to add to the image description page, and drop a note at the uploader's talk page asking for information.

Thanks. --User:Dmcdevit 19:56, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC) == :Image:Hkicon.gif == If the image is still orphaned, then may I ask why was the image kept.

User:Zscout370 User_talk:Zscout370 03:02, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Well, there were a few objections to deleting.

User:Dbenbenn | User talk:Dbenbenn 02:20, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC) Last night, all of the colored squares in the Wikipedia chess tournament boards became white for me, making it impossible to distinguish light-color squares from dark squares.

There's recently been some discussion about ways to simplify the VfD closing process. I know I have some pride-of-authorship issues and may not be as perfectly impartial as I'd like. Would you mind taking a few minutes to review the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Deletion process#Simplification and share your thoughts? Thanks. User:Rossami User talk:Rossami 20:41, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Lately, though, I've been feeling less sure, especially after reading User:Geogre. One thing I ''do'' feel sure about is that an article shouldn't fool the reader into thinking the topic is more notable than it really is. That's the problem with articles on non-notable people. That's why I nominated Homespring, an otherwise charming article about an esoteric programming language. :"Encyclopedias synthesize and highlight; they tell the reader the importantance or significance of a subject, the most important background, concepts, or events that shaped that importance, and perhaps a few pieces of trivia or a few strange facts and then sends the reader somewhere else for the in-depth treatment. Even if notability is discarded and every verifiable object, fact, or event in the known universe and every fictional universe ever created is included, that only expands the breadth of coverage and does not change the way such objects should be presented, i.e. with an eye towards synthesizing previous research and sources and highlighting the essential facts contained therein." —User:Indrian, [] ====Delete nominations==== , , , , ==Projects== Get photos of Denver and possibly other Colorado locations from [http://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/sseop/EFS/photoinfo.pl?PHOTO=STS078-732-7]. Why did I get reverted at :Image:Pope John Paul II Coat of Arms.jpg? See :Image:Hansilk2.png, compared to GIF version! I should get a book by John McPhee from the library. Query :Image:Etna 2002 eruption.jpg Higher resolution for :Image:M104 ngc4594 sombrero galaxy.jpg and :Image:BlueMarble-2001-2002.JPG. Satellite photos for all continents and subregions. Higher resolution versions of the :Category:continent locator maps. Expand geometric group theory, amenable group, and Thompson groups. Add info about Bounded robot dances, tree diagrams for , and more. Expand The Field. Info box, like Amelie. The topic of skiing could use a lot of expansion. See :Category:Ski resorts. Start Flower snark! See snark (graph theory) and [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/FlowerSnark.html]. Fix the ASCII-art graphs in :Category:Articles with ASCII art! Clean up the treatment of hyperbolic geometry! Should have pictures for the disc model and upper half plane model. Add info to Skyhook (structure)! Having started Nagata-Smirnov metrization theorem, I should add the proof. Expand Milnor sphere. Living in Vail, Colorado, I should expand that entry. Get a history of Vail from the library. Take some pictures from a nearby peak. See Cerritos, California for inspiration on what can be done. Perhaps The Mind's I could use a cover photo. I find the list of mathematical proofs interesting. I'll be adding some entries to it when I finally add the topics listed above. Also, there's the list of mathematical topics and Wikipedia:Pages needing attention/Mathematics. Maybe I could add something useful to line graph. Maybe I'll add the proof of the marriage theorem. Sometimes when I'm feeling mindless I'll pick a Wikipedia:Links to disambiguating pages and disambiguate links to it. The pages on juggling could use a lot of work. === Pages to start === * Schreier index formula. * The bellows conjecture. * Dehn's lemma, and a lot of pages from User:Charles Matthews/red links#Algebraic topology and Wikipedia:Requested articles/Mathematics. * The statement and a proof of the stable marriage theorem. * The red links at Petersen graph. === Photos to take === * cooked bacon * spinach * raisin bran * scrambled egg, omelet * pipe wrench * aluminum foil * Could clean :Image:Dodecahedron flat.png or :Image:Desargues Theorem.png * Better picture for Sharpie * Diagram of the Hopf link * Blindfold, hood * BLT sandwich, Peanut butter and jelly sandwich * burrito * pinky finger * thumb wrestling * boxer shorts. And briefs should illustrate how they're worn. * armpit hair ==== Locations near me ==== The following places are near me. I should get off my lazy butt and take more pictures of them. * The Betty Ford Alpine Gardens in Vail, Colorado. * Gore Creek flows through Vail * The Gore Range * Vail Pass, about 10 miles east of Vail * Minturn, Colorado, Eagle-Vail, Colorado, and Avon, Colorado are west along Interstate 70 * Glenwood Canyon. I have photos of Hanging Lake, within the canyon, to upload. ==Other comments== Maybe eventually I'll write about * Madder Rose, a band. They published Swim (Madder Rose album) (1993), Panic On (1994), The Love You Save (1995), Tragic Magic (1997), and Hello June Fool (1999) * The Smalls, a band from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (see [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:bl5ibkg9jakm AMG]). They published To Each a Zone (1992), The Smalls (1993), Waste & Tragedy (1995), and My Dear Little Angle (1999) * Stephen Landsburg, author of [http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0029177766/002-8280894-1678457?v=glance The Armchair Economist] and the [http://slate.msn.com/?id=3944&QueryText=%22Everyday+Economics%22&SearchOn=Department Everyday Economics] column on Slate. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Music and Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums should be helpful for the music. If I ever buy Earphoria I'll give it a cover photo. Bombardier beetles are so cool: they're rocket propelled! Perhaps if I can get to a library I'll try to flesh out the article. ==Useful (to me) links== * Wikipedia:Unusual articles * Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost * m:Help:User style * Wikipedia:Producing maps with xplanet * [http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4554625 Electrical line worker] next?
