Please do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. . This [1] edit summary is hardly constructive. But it does become downright funny (in an ironic sense) when you ask me if I am retarded, then say "Twins have been home for Ft Myers since 1990". I'm sure it made sense in your head..... The fact here is that the Twins (and Hammond Stadium) are in unincoprorated Lee County, not the city of Ft. Myers. The article is about the CITY of Ft. Myers. The Twins are correctly noted in the Lee County article. And, when the first pitch gets thrown at Jet Blue Park, the Red Sox won't really be in the city any longer.

• Why do I need to be "better"? You made a flat out attack, I made a snarky comment about the irony in your insult. Regardless, the zip code has nothing to do with this. Look at start of the article. It is the county seat.....that is the CITY. It give a population that is not every place with a Ft. Myers zip code, but the population of....yeah, the city. Notice how the article points out that the airport is outside of the city and links to another more specific article. Calling me retarded won't change the fact that the Twins aren't in the city of Ft. Myers. Niteshift36 (talk) 03:00, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Reviewing Homework.

Hi. I'm the current reviewer of Homework (Daft Punk album), which has been nominated to Good article. I encourage you to help me improve the article, since i've seen you have worked on it several times. Improvements are mandatory for the aticle to meet the Good article criteria, since its current form does not meet those guidelines.

I'll really appreciate your help. Thanks. --Hahc21 (talk) 02:41, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Wipeout64.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Wipeout64.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:50, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Minor barnstar
	Thanks for your work on the Outrun page, I really needed someone else to confirm how the page needed to be named, also any other contributions would be appreciated Crushedpixel (talk) 00:23, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Outrun importance?

Glad to hear your going to work on it, I can't believe no one had started the article before I did! Also, what's your view on the level of importance of Outrun (album) which has currently been set to low? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crushedpixel (talk • contribs) 00:50, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:N64-tonictroubleu.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:N64-tonictroubleu.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently 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. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:53, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Wiiitis. Since you had some involvement with the Wiiitis redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. sst✈ 15:33, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Gulla Gulla Island a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Gullah Gullah Island. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the _target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.
