I've rea the MS guidelines here, and don't quite understand what's the problem.

Any way, what the problem with the "magazine covers"? If book covers are allowed... conio.h • talk 17:52, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Fair use stuff (book, magazine, CD, DVD covers and etc) is not allowed on Commons. Please upload it in English Wikipedia. --EugeneZelenko 19:29, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Commons:Licensing#Checklist says that covers "may be OK". How do I know? conio.h • talk 21:40, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Moving comments

On Template:Deletion requests you are moving comments out of chronological order in an attempt to make yourself look better. Each time you do this, you will be reverted. If you do it three more times, I will give you a 24-hour block for vandalism. — Erin (talk) 03:50, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

I am moving BACK the comment to the place in which I've written it in the first place. I don't see why is this vandalism, and if you do, please give me a link to the commons guidelines page saying so (I'm asking this since I'm not very familiar with the commons rules and guidelines). conio.h • talk

This is a matter of consensus rather than something that has ever needed to be codified in great detail (although see Commons:Talk page guidelines). Basically, you don't get to put your comments anywhere you like. You must put them in chronological order. To show you the chaos caused if people didn't stick to this simple rule, I am putting this comment in the incorrect order right now. — Erin (talk) 04:56, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Understood. But in that case I'd like to point out that you did something very similar on the same page, before me: editing already-posted text "in an attempt to make yourself look better". By "replying" to what I said "before" I said it, you're basically forcing me "not to say it" retroactively. See the problem?

It's reasonable to ask me to post in an orderly fashion, but it is sure as hell unreasonable to ask that (accompanying with threats of blocking), while you do similar things yourself. conio.h • talk 05:12, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm glad you understand the value of chronological order. A completely separate issue is that of corrections to prior comments. It is customary to do what I did, i.e. to strike out text with <del>...</del> and insert text with <ins>...</ins>. That way corrections can be made and they are marked as such. A separate issue again is your dishonesty in trying to make it look like I had not already dealt with the fact that two different terms might be used for the invading forces ("German" and "Nazi"), when I clearly had. My amendment just made it even clearer that the point had already been made.

But anyway, there is no more need to debate the issue. If you understand that the comments must be kept in chronological order, then my purpose in commenting on this page is fulfilled. — Erin (talk) 06:49, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Dishonesty is claiming that you've "already dealt" with something you actually haven't. Hypocrisy is "forbidding" others doing what you did and do, and refering to others in a manner that's not too polite, and is a classic example of a personal attack.

But never mind, have it your way. I removed my second comment (to which no one has replied) alltogether. That way there's no need to worry about it's location on the page. conio.h • talk 07:09, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called AlexKarpman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name AlexKarpman~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
