The Clock Crew is definately notable, having independantly released two cds and raised money for charity, as well as having place in Internet culture and other things.

==Unspecified source for Image:Friedrich wilhelm krüger.jpg==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Friedrich wilhelm krüger.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 {{tl|GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} 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 {{tlp|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 [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{PAGENAMEE}}}} this link]. '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If the image is copyrighted under a [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|non-free license]] (per [[Wikipedia:Fair use]]) then '''the image will be deleted [[WP:CSD#I7|48 hours]] after 10:03, 1 April 2007 (UTC)'''. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you. [[User:Svencb|Svencb]] 10:03, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
== Placing my work on other language wikipedias. ==
Hi Schneelocke, In reply to your question there are several reasons for my asking people to contact me before placing images on other language wikis. Firstly the GNU FLA gives artists the right to have images they created cited back to them. My asking people not to upload the page to other wiki's without contacting me is between a binding agreement and a polite request. I can't stipulate under the GNU FLA that people '''MUST''' contact me but its important to me that the citation remain whatever wiki it is located on. Its something people uploading to other wiki's frequently forget and so thats why I ask that I be contacted rather than just explain this as people don't see it or ignore it. Why is it so important? Because many of my diagrams have been used in work which I have submitted for my university degree or earlier college courses. Having them on wikipedia obviously means the university may worry that I have actually stolen someone elses work from the internet and masqueraded it as my own. I dont mean to 'blow my own trumpet' but the quality of my work and its presence on the internet has obviously raised concerns with them in the past, and so when I upload work it is vital its properly cited so to avoid any confussion over who has made it. To this extent, having links back to me here is incredibly important as I'm sure you can see. Its also why I say where I'm from and what I'm doing on my talk page, its all to cover my backside.
There is of course another aspect to it all, and this is that I have versions of these images without any text on them which will be more appropriate to other language wikipedias. So if people contact me first I can often offer them supreior diagrams. I hope this explains my position on this more clearly. I am hoping soon to petition to change policy to make referencing diagrams to their creators a little tighter as many people are in my position, where they don't want exposure for their work but they do need it to be 100% cited correctly. [[User:WikipedianProlific|WikipedianProlific]][[User_Talk:WikipedianProlific|<sup>(Talk)</sup>]] 19:29, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
:Oh, there's nothing wrong with requiring attribution for your work - in fact, the GNU FDL requires that to be given, too. I can certainly understand your position, but I was wondering about the apparent contradiction.
:As for the rest, why not just upload the images to the [http://commons.wikimedia.org Wikimedia Commons] in the first place? That way, they're accessible from all Wikimedia projects (including all Wikipedias), and you don't have to worry about anyone uploading them elsewhere without crediting you (which would be a violation of the GNU FDL, anyway). -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] 07:23, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

==Orphaned fair use image (Image:Ch951231.jpg)==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Ch951231.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[WP:O|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. [[WP:BOLD|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 [[Wikipedia:Fair use#Policy|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 "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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 [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Orphaned --> [[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] 14:44, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Ch951231.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] and then go to [[:Image:Ch951231.jpg|the image description page]] and clarify why you think the image qualifies.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our [[WP:CSD#Images/media|Criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:No fair -->
BTW, it was removed with mention on the [[Talk:Calvin and Hobbes#Final Strip|Talk page]]. [[User:Anomie|Anomie]] 20:01, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
:I disagree with 2., 4. and 5., at least. With regard to 2., I think that 800x552 pixels is a low resolution, since it is not sufficient to allow the strip to be reprinted in a decent quality in anything except for a small size (and if there is disagreement over this, the image could just be reuploaded in an even lower resolution); with regard to 5., the tag says "[t]his image is from a comic strip, or from the cover or interior of a comic book", and while it gives single panels ''as an example'' of what might be considered fair use, the list of examples is merely informative, not exhaustive; and with regard to 4., the fact that the publisher does not give permission is wholly irrelevant for the question of whether use of copyrighted material is fair use (in fact, if you have permission, you don't need to argue about fair use at all).
:I'm not sure about 1. and 3. The fact that the publisher sells individual strips does not, IMO, mean much, since it still is only one strip out of 3160, but IANAL, and it could be argued that it does. As for 3., I do believe that the strip does add significantly to an article that otherwise contains no strip at all, but again, this is just my opinion.
:That being said, I'm not going to be stubborn about this; if others think the image shouldn't be used and/or isn't necessary, I won't mind if it's deleted, but I'll still say that I am 100% convinced that it IS valid fair use. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] 20:39, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

== Criticism sections ==
''this does seem to get used as a "no material that doesn't portray the article's subject in a positive light, please" template''
: The template was just created two weeks ago, and looks to be in only ten articles so far. Which ones are you referring to? — [[User:Omegatron|Omegatron]] 23:23, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
::[[Jerry Falwell]]. It's actually been removed from that one now, it seems, but it was attached to the "controversial remarks" section. I think that's a bad development - if someone makes controversial remarks (where "controversial" means that they actually create controversies), and if those remarks are themselves important enough to warrant a mention in the subject's article (actually pretty much a given if they cause a major controversy at least), then it's not an NPOV problem if Wikipedia reports on this controversy. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] 07:26, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
:::# Of course the remarks should be mentioned in the article. The template nowhere implies that criticism should be removed altogether, does it?
:::# I agree that these remarks work pretty well in their own section. Would it be better to split them up, though? More neutral section titles might be "September 11th remarks", "Civil rights movement", and "Teletubbies", and then put these sections in chronological order with the rest of the article. The "Falwell and apartheid" section, for instance, isn't included in that section, even though it also contains "controversial remarks". I think it's better in its own section.
:::# Even if this use of the template can be seen as an abuse, though, does that really mean the template should be deleted? Do you think that it is impossible to use this template in a beneficial way? {{tl|NPOV}} is abused constantly; should we delete that, too? — [[User:Omegatron|Omegatron]] 13:36, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
::::I think it's not so much about whether the template can be abused but whether it can be used in a constructive and useful way. {{tl|NPOV}} can, but I'm not convinced about this one. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] 19:11, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

== Blondi ==
I am the author who left the note on Blondi. I did this in good faith and because I wanted the readers to see it. The research I did for the opening chapter was thorough and based upon a supposition. I was not after any free publicity because I don't need it (the book was recented reviewed by the Liverpool Echo and called an Imaginative Debut. I also found your dismissal of self-published work to be a little bit patronising. I chose to self-publish, not because I'd been turned down by everybody, but because I wanted a bit more control over the process. The idea of publishing and distributing ones own work will still remain with the big conglomorates if people have attitudes such as yours (just remember that by using Wikipedia you are also doing self-publishing, with no more validity than anybody else). I'm shocked by your negativity instead of your encouragement. This is not meant to be an angry piece, but a slightly sad one

:Don't get het up, please. I was neither ragging on the book as such (although I doubt it's one I'd read) nor on self-publishing books instead of getting an established publishing house to do it. However, Wikipedia has a clear mission and purpose: namely, to create an encyclopaedia, and among other things, this means that we only have articles on subjects that meet certain [[WP:NOTABILITY|notability]] guidelines. A self-published book by an unknown author generally will not meet these, and while providing encouragement to authors and other people is nice, creating an encyclopaedia will always take precedence - I'm sure you'll understand that.
:Also, writing articles on topics you're personally affiliated with is generally frowned upon; it's difficult to maintain a [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]] when there's a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]], and in fact, it's dangerously close (at best) to [[WP:SPAM|advertising]].
:I know that getting an article you wrote in [[WP:AGF|good faith]] deleted can hurt, but don't take it personally. :) And also, look at this way: if your book (or you) really becomes notable, somebody else will write an article about it (or you) sooner or later. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] 20:01, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

== {{tl|Whisky-stub}} ==
Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at [[Wikipedia:Stub]], at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals]], in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at [[WP:WSS/D]] - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first!
PS - as to the "why not?" edit summary, mainly because of the number of stubs - there need to be 60 currently existing stubs on a subject for a new category to be desirable for stub-sorting purposes. A more general spirits-drink-stub might have been a better option. [[User:Grutness|Grutness]]...''<small><font color="#008822">[[User_talk:Grutness|wha?]]</font></small>'' 01:17, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
:Thanks for your comment, but I doubt I will do that in the future. If there's room for improvement, I will dive in, be bold and do just that (improve things) rather than asking for permission to do so first. That's not to say that discussing things is generally a bad idea, of course, but I neither feel that I (or anyone) should be required to ask permission for making changes nor that introducing new stub types to make it easier for people interested in certain topics to jump and work on those things is a bad thing.

I didn't make that statement, but it probably refers to the recent
proof by Aschbacher and Smith of the so called "quasi-thin" result.
( I omit the details of the result, but it is a final step in the
classification program). The result is available electronically and
is due to appear as a monograph soon if it hasn't already.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Karlbrandt.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.
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 {{Tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], use a tag such as {{tlp|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.

:::Don't be silly. That makes about as much sense as noticing a typo in an article someone else wrote and then posting about their talk page about it instead of going in and fixing it. Has it ever occurred to you that Wikipedia is a COLLABORATIVE effort? And for that matter, has it ever occurred to you that it's not me personally who's using this image, but Wikipedia as a whole? If it's fair use, then anyone can (and, if they care about it, arguably should) go and provide a rationale for that - it doesn't have to be me. And that's doubly true considering that there's already a boilerplate template on there that says why it is fair use. I know some people think that that's not enough for unfathomable reasons, but I don't: for me, it's enough. So if you disagree with that, good for you - I guess -, but I don't care. So either go ahead and fix these, or don't, but whatever you do, don't expect me to care about this waste of time.

== Merge RSA numbers? ==
The content of [[:Category:RSA Factoring Challenge]] is [[RSA Factoring Challenge]], and 54 stubs about individual RSA numbers. The RSA factoring challenge ended in 2007 while most of the numbers were still unfactored. Maybe they will still be factored when it becomes feasible, but the interest in them now appears limited, and all 54 articles seem likely to remain in [[:Category:Cryptography stubs]]. I'm considering to officially propose a [[WP:MERGE|merger]] of all 54 into a new article called [[RSA numbers]] or [[List of RSA numbers]]. There can be a detailed lead with common things, and each number can then get its own section with same name as the current stub. The stubs can redirect directly to the section about them. Many of the external links about successful factorizations could be changed to inline references so they remain tied to the number. The category would only have 2 articles left (including the new list), so I suggest to delete it if the merger is made. You appear to have created most or all of the articles and I would like your input before going further with the idea. [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 14:28, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
:I'm feeling ambivalent about this. On one hand, you've got a good point; it's unlikely that most of these articles will grow significantly. On the other hand, I'm a follower of the "one concept, one article" school of thought, so I'm not generally a fan of merging and deleting articles just because they're stubs (whoever said stubs are necessarily bad, anyway?).
:But I can also see why there's little reason to keep an article if there really isn't anything in it that hasn't already been in said (and, for that matter, should be said) in a more general article providing an overview over the topic in question. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] ([[User talk:Schneelocke#top|talk]]) 19:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
::I think the 54 numbers is basically one concept. The only thing I suggest to remove when merging is redundancies. Keep the current details like decimal expansions, known factorizations, who found them, how, when. Seeing it together seems more reader friendly to me than 54 articles with the same opening, a decimal expansion, and essentially nothing else for all the unfactored numbers. I also think most of the current stubs (at least all the unfactored numbers) fail [[Wikipedia:Notability]] on their own.

:::To be quite blunt, I don't care in the slightest about [[WP:N]], but I otherwise am inclined to agree with what you wrote (as said above already). As far as I'm concerned, I'd not be opposed to a merge; I wouldn't initiate it myself, but if you want to go ahead, I wouldn't disagree with that. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schneelocke]] ([[User talk:Schneelocke#top|talk]]) 18:20, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

== [[Bad group]] prod ==
I added a [[WP:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] template to the article [[Bad group]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. The concerns are mostly that the article is less than a dictionary definition after about four years. Feel free to remove the prod.
If this article does interest you, it could definitely use expansion (connected group is undefined, as mentioned on talk page, unreferenced, no context). Certainly more should be said than an unreferenced partial definition, but my quick read through google's results showed it would be hard to do more than this.

If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current ''[[:Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs|{{PAGESINCATEGORY:All_unreferenced_BLPs}}]]'' article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{tl|unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
# [[Thomas Gottschalk]] - <small>{{findsources|Thomas Gottschalk}}</small>
# [[Roman Herzog]] - <small>{{findsources|Roman Herzog}}</small>
# [[Walter Scheel]] - <small>{{findsources|Walter Scheel}}</small>

==April 27==
RE: your addition of World Tapir Day to the list of observances at [[April 27]]. The minimum requirement for inclusion in a date article is that the observance be the subject of an article. This observance is not and therefore should not be included. -- <font color="#000080">Mufka</font> [[User:Mufka|<sup>(u)</sup>]] [[User talk:Mufka|<sup>(t)</sup>]] [[Special:Contributions/Mufka|<sup>(c)</sup>]] 18:39, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
== [[Avatar (2009 film)]] article -- article size ==
Schneelock, regarding this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Avatar_%282009_film%29&diff=358824000&oldid=358823258 this edit], I am aware of that, but as I said in my edit summary, this was added throughout for a reason. Stuff that is not needed keeps getting added to this article; we are not always quick to note cruft. The article size has been extensively discussed on the talk page, and we were advised to keep the article size down (from increasing too much more). We keep having to cut out stuff, because of new adds that are not needed. But what should or should not be noted is often subjective. This note throughout the article can help the article from unnecessarily increasing in size; people will be more willing to discuss whether or not certain additions are needed or not. For example, the Themes and inspirations section is already big enough; it basically covers the most important stuff. Additional stuff should go to the main article on the themes in ''Avatar.''
