As I have already stated: as the author I am with in my rights to place them under the GFDL images category. To clarify I am the author of the images posted on Wikipedia. I am not Sivkov. It appears that in the course of maintaining the integrity of this sight you have jumped to unfounded conclusions.

You'll have to forgive any confusion:

I would like to point: Though, I am not the artist I am the owner of those to paintings. Under property rights law I can release them in any fashion. To explain this: If, you own all of Wal-Mart you could use the logo in however you saw fit.

DebrayR —Preceding unsigned comment added by DebrayR (talk • contribs) 23:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

For the sake of clarity: Starry Night, the magnum opus of van Gogh, is owned by (entrusted to) the Museum of Modern Art in New York (the MoMA). It is the MoMA that has discretionary power over the image. Not the heirs of van Gogh. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DebrayR (talk • contribs) 18:51, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

The editor who has posted this also claims the copyright. The artist, however is still alive. It is unclear if the editor is also the creator of this image. Freshacconci | Talk 00:32, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

I received a message regarding this image to my talk page: Images:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_images/2007_October_9#Image:Siberian_Shaman.jpg You have tagged these image as possibly being unfree.

It is clear to me that since this person is not the artists Sivkov, even if they did take the photograph, they cannot release it under the GFDL because the subject matter/content of the photograph is copyright. That's like saying I could simply photograph the Wal-mart logo and then use it for my business because I was the creator of the photograph. I'll try to contact the user to explain this.-Andrew c [talk] 22:38, 10 October 2007 (UTC) Here is some more info. The person claims that they bought the artist's work and that they own this painting. That changes thing, but I am not familiar enough with copyright law to know if transfer of ownership applies here (it probably does. I know that it's highly probable that IBM owns their own logo, not the artist who created it Paul Rand).-Andrew c [talk] 23:09, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't know for sure how this process works, but I believe it needs to be an administrator who makes that decision. You may need to contact someone who works within the arts and ask them. You can try here: WP:LA. Freshacconci | Talk 22:11, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Concerning the images - I think if you go to the tags and then click on the discussion, say that the paintings are needed for the article, they belong to you, and you'd like any input from an editor in order to correctly describe the proper attribution. Modernist 22:47, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I would like to know when my images will be removed as possibly being unfree.

I believe that you were mistaken to close Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Austin Lonestars as Withdrawn. Had no one participated in that AfD, it could have been withdrawn. However, I had participated in that AfD with a delete position. Merely because Allstarecho changed his view on what should be done with the articles was no reason to ignore my delete position and close the Austin Lonestars AfD. Allstarecho does not obtain control over an AfD that exceeds those who participate in the AfD merely because Allstarecho listed it. Please reconsider your early close of that AfD.

Need for protection

Andrew, an IP got one past us all. Several revisions ago, someone put Seventh Day Adventist in the very first sentence. As I went back through revisions, every one after Joseph Haller's had some vandal trash in it. I still could be missing something, so I wanted you to know what's going on.

I also put in an RPP semi-protect indefinite. If you agree with that, perhaps you would add your weight to the request. I know that you spend so much time protecting and improving the various articles on Jesus. Probably no two of us will always agree on issues, but we can look at it this way: if two of us agreed on everything, one of us would be superfluous (Meant to be humorous). I tremendously appreciate your efforts, and am glad for this "opportunity" that has reminded me to say THANKS, ANDREW! Afaprof01 23:43, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

The overlinking vandal

I noticed that they're vandalizing again. If they continue, do you think the range-block should be re-instated? Acalamari 16:19, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to act independently. I just IP-range blocked the range again for 3 months this time. I noticed last night (exactly a day after the block expired) the vandalism occurred, and it has since come from 3 different IP addresses in that range, despite my attempts to warn them. It is completely inappropriate to continue the disruptive edits directly after a block, and I have tried to communicate with the user. If you think my block was too long or too soon, I'd be glad to undo it.-Andrew c ^[talk] 16:23, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't disagree with the block: as was pointed out when you did the first range-block, the vandalism went on for months, the histories of several pages were ruined by the constant overlinking vandalism, postings to their talk pages were ignored, and no good edits came from those IPs anyway. Also, as you just said, they vandalized with different IPs not long after the block expired. I would, however, suggest you leave CambridgeBayWeather a note about the block, as he was also involved with this as well. Acalamari 16:30, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Done.-Andrew c ^[talk] 16:39, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

No problems. I noticed they had started again. I forgot they were blocked and seeing as there were no complaints it looks good to me. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 16:42, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

DYK confusion?

Hello. I think there has been a little confusion about this DYK notification on my talk page[1] for Cyclura rileyi cristata: this DYK rightly belongs to User:Mike Searson who is the author of the article, as well as the original nominator; I just provided an alt hook for it when I saw it on the Suggestions page. I suppose the attribution info got mixed up when the various hooks were moved from Suggestions to the Next Update and reduced to a single hook, or something.

I could move the DYK section from my talk page to Mike Searson's talk, but I guess it's preferable that I let you award it to him "officially".

On a related note, I usually prefix my alt hooks with " ** + ALT: ...that ", but please let me know if it'd be useful that I copy-paste the original nominator's info on an alt hook before signing it, so as to limit you guys' workload on a DYK update.

Cheers — Komusou ^talk @ 07:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

P.S. : There must be something in the Kool-Aid today, because I just received a second DYK notice in error, so I guess that makes copy-pasting the original author a must when having a lil alt hook fun ;-) — Komusou ^talk @ 15:19, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

RE: Christian Heresies

I'm sortof new to all of this, so bear with me here. I had changed the section on Christian Heresies to include Mormons, Jehovas Witnesses, and Christadelphians under the catagory of "Other Heresies" rather than "controversial groups." You reverted it back to its original state saying I didn't have any sources, and therefore, my actions were "extremely biased." (honestly, that's an absurd accusation, you don't know my background or my motives, and nearly anyone educated on the subject of Christian Heresies would agree that the three groups catagorized as "controversial" are unorthodox and heretical according to historic Christianity). For one, none of those three can affirm any historic Christian Creed -- Nicene, Apostle's, Athanasian, etc.. Another point would be that they contain beliefs which are similar or the same to other groups which already have been classified as heretical on the CH page (particularly under the Christological catagory).

Look at the section on Christology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_heresy#Christology), it states that "the earliest Christian heresies were generally Christological in nature, that is, they denied either Christ's (eternal) divinity or humanity." And yet Mormonism, Jehovas Witnesses, and Christadelphians, all do just that (amongst other things). So in condemning the Arians, etc., the Early Church also condemned these other groups (albeit, unknowingly and without direct intent -- simply because these three groups didn't exist back then exactly in the form they do today).

You are being impersonated by User:Andrev c

Hi Andrew, I just wanted to let you know that a new user User:Andrev c has been impersonating you and undoing many of your recent edits. I have Crisis pregnancy center on my watchlist and noticed a series of bizarre reversions. At first I thought it was confined to the CPC article, but when I checked Andrev c's contribs, I noticed he has made 20 edits in the past few hours, all reversions of your recent edits on those articles. I reported this to ANI (Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Impersonation account/sockpuppets disrupting several articles), but I have to go and don't have time to follow up or investigate further at the moment. The same user also appears to be impersonating User:EALacey as User:EAGacey. Have a good day. — DIEGO ^talk 12:57, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I read your list of Six-String's sock-puppets here. I was wondering if there were another sock currently operating within WP, and specifically the John Lennon article. I am not sure, as Six used to claim that he knew someone who used to work for Lennon, and there is another long-time user in the article who has made the same claim. i hesitate to mention the name, in case the user is innocent, but a quick glance at the discussion page for that article would quickly indicate who the subject of the concern is. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 04:52, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Religion and abortion

Hi, Andrew c. HG has recently given some much-needed attention to the "Judaism" section at Religion and abortion.

Criticism of Christianity.

Thanks for the advice. I can seem a little rude in some edit summaries, and in general one should deal with anons much more delicately, I suppose. However, the anon in question is actually the user "Biblical1", as coordinated contributions to a comment on my talk page has led me to understand. This user has an extensive edit history, and therefore I'm not going to bend over backwards to explain policy to him (I've already done so with 3 other users this week, typically to no avail). As it stands, I feel that my summary was an adequate explanation of things.

How hard must one try to explain that removing sourced information to replace it with unsourced information that supports only one point of view is not "adhering to NPOV" or "removing bias"? It's elementary to understand, but this user is persistent. Additionally, this user has been leaving the occasional message on my user page, in which he speaks in a condescending manner to me as if I'm some sort of imbecile (not being aware that this is my primary field of study as well). Note, additionally, his rather rude summary here.

As much as I enjoy being told to "read more books" and to be proselytized on my own user talk page, there may soon come a time where I will report this user for harassment. In any case, one can understand that the user is pushing an agenda; in doing so he is (ironically) ignoring WP:NPOV entirely, and replacing good information with unsourced POV propaganda. The addition of the "quotes" section is another problem which I have removed- the entire section is original research. Thanks for your concern.--C.Logan 05:49, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

please do not post wrong translations of the bible

ωδε η σοφια εστιν ο εχων νουν ψηφισατω τον αριθμον του θηριου αριθμος γαρ ανθρωπου εστιν και ο αριθμος αυτου χξς. Try to learn Greek and translate the word ψηφισατω. Is it count, or is it vote ? There is no one who refuses that the word "ψηφισάτω" also means "vote". At the same time everyone who translates the Bible in English translates it as "count" or "calculate". I mean everybody, and this is very strange, really. If the writer really wanted to say "count" he could use a lot of other synonyms, like "μετρησάτω", "υπολογισάτω" e.t.c. But if he wanted to say "vote", there is only one way to say it, it is "ψηφισάτω". How do you explain the fact that , although everyone knows that "ψηφισάτω" also means vote, none dares to translate it like that?

Before translating the bible, let me remind you how serious the translation is. Let me remind you the curse of the writer of the apocalypse: "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the wood of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book"—Preceding unsigned comment added by Xicsies (talk • contribs) 02:04, 16 November 2007

Markan priority

I appreciate your effort to revamp the images related to various synoptic problem, source criticism issues. However, Image:Synoptic problem Markan priority.png is misleading if not inaccurate. The hypothesis of Markan priority only states that Mark was written first. It does not necessarily negate the idea that Luke used Matthew (or vice versa). For example, the Farrer hypothesis supports Markan priority, but your image would not account for the Farrer hypothesis (and while we are on that topic, will you please note that Image:Synoptic problem - Farrer hypothesis .png has a major error). Also, the image is a bit misleading because it seems to imply that there are no other sources for Matthew and Luke than Mark (when the most popular solution is the two source hypothesis). I think because of the complexities with Markan priority, it may be best to simply not have an image for that article. Also, another brief note, if you are going to be uploading text and line graphics, they are generally better rendered in vector format, so if possible, could you make these new image files into SVGs? I'd be glad to try an explain how in more detail if you are not familiar with the process. -Andrew c ^[talk] 05:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Now that you mention it, I do see how the image of Markan priority is misleading? I could put questions marked arrows in between Matt and Luke, but actually we probably are best off without any image. "Mark Was First" is sufficiently simple that we probably don't need an image to convey it, at least not on the Markan Priority page. And thank you SO much for the catching the Farrer hypothesis error. How embarassing-- thank goodness for the many eyes of Wikipedia. I've corrected it.

About SVG-- I spent way too long trying to con my stupid M$ Visio 2003 into saving the images a SVG. it works... sort of, but it produces very strange results-- for example, see: [:Image:Synoptic problem markan priority.svg]

Say, if you're have a second or three-- would you look over Purgatory and tell us what you think? I felt like it had major stylistic problems, to the point that a general lay audience would have basically no chance of understanding it. I did a rewrite, but it's proving to be more controversial than I'd expected, and I can't get it to stick. I'm running an RFC, but as usual nobody shows up :)-- if you find the time to lend us your view on whether the rewrite is a step in the right direction, I'd be most grateful. :) --10:32, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

How can adding a worthy source that is helpful to the article bad? If an article is about a person for example, and you post the URL to the person's blog, is it not credible? Or if the article is about a book of the Bible and you post a URL to an article written by a reputable and well known pastor or author about that book of the Bible, is that not helpful?

Wikipedia has been slower in Firefox

Saw your question on this on the village pump - I answered there, but figured you may be more likely to see this here. Anyway, this sounds like it could be something to do with a Firefox configuration item. If you type "about:config" in the address bar, you'll get a page containing all the Firefox settings. Parameter browser.cache.check_doc_frequency controls when the browser will check for new versions of a page, when it will use the cache, and so on. Values are: 0) checks for page updates once per session (so hitting back should only use the cache); 1) checks for page updates every time you visit a page; 2) uses the cached version every time, if it exists; 3) checks automatically (by looking at the Date Modified field on the page - if that field is more recent than the cached page's date, the page will be reloaded).

Personally, I use value 1 on FF 2.0.0.9, and don't see the problem. Might be worth checking what cache size you've allowed to FF too - if the page isn't in cache, it will always reload, of course.

Anyway, hope that helps you out, but those are things worth checking out. Carre (talk) 20:01, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

DYK is way overdue. It has been 13 hours since last update. That means one complete cycle has been missed and the next cycle late. Please help. I saw that you edited recently so I am contacting you. I am contacting more than one person due to the extreme lateness ! Red alert! Thank you.Archtransit (talk) 16:53, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
