[edit] What if...

What if we find non-free images on Commons, that really should only be at en:Wiki? Is there a bot or a template that will move them out of Commons but retain the image elsewhere? Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 18:08, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Randy is an admin on Commons- he should know that. We do have some images on the work list that need to be moved. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 18:10, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] e-mail discussion

I'll have the start of this ready in a few minutes, but I will add more from different places I look later, is that okay? Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 14:57, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Sure. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 15:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

User:Gadget850/Scout image requests Thanks! Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 15:53, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

BTW: my upload toolbox is at User:Gadget850/bsi. I am fiddling with this as I go. If you want to suppress the display of MediaWiki:Uploadtext on uploads, I can give you the secret. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 12:55, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] List of Eagle Scouts (Boy Scouts of America)

Hi. I know this is from a long time ago, and is really a minor matter, but I like the details to be straightened out. :) I noticed that you were the nominator of List of Eagle Scouts (Boy Scouts of America), a featured list. Do you think that Rlevse (talk · contribs) should be counted as a co-nominator {i.e. get credit for the list on WP:WBFLN)? He has by far made the most edits to the page, and it seems he helped a lot with referencing. Regards, Dabomb87 (talk) 22:24, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Sure. He recently did a lot of work recently updating it to table format, and has maintained it as much as I have. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 02:05, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur Rose Eldred GA Sweeps: On Hold

I have reviewed Arthur Rose Eldred for GA Sweeps to determine if it still qualifies as a Good Article. In reviewing the article I have found several issues, which I have detailed here. Since you are a main contributor of the article (determined based on this tool), I figured you would be interested in contributing to further improve the article. Please comment there to help the article maintain its GA status. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Happy editing!

[edit] Jamboree image on White Stag article

Always trusting in your wisdom and experience, help me understand your rationale for removing the image of the 4th World Jamboree patch from White Stag Leadership Development Program. The image of the white stag on the patch is very relevant to explaining the current logo used by the organization 76 years later. While the patch is shown in the article about the Jamboree. that article is not linked as a See or More reference, reducing the likelihood that visitors will see the patch and understand the intimate relationship between the Jamboree, Bela Banathy, and White Stag. This article also lacks images to lighten up the text. Thanks. -- btphelps ^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:30, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Images should be directly relevant to the text; i.e. there should be significant content that connects the article to the image. Non-free images must be used judiciously; File:4th World Scout Jamboree.png‎ is the logo of the event, thus inherently connected to the Jamboree. There is no text within White Stag Leadership Development Program that explicitly connects the jamboree emblem to the subject of a leadership program, except in the infobox caption, where the jamboree is linked. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 01:34, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

On the contrary, the program's use of the white stag based on the patch is directly quoted. The article quotes Banathy: "At the time of the initiation of this leadership developmental process a stylized emblem of a white stag was designed as the program symbol. This symbol was used as the badge of the Fourth World Jamboree held in Hungary." What could be more significant than a quote from the founder attributing the source of the program's symbol to the Jamboree patch? I have emphasized the symbol's origin in the 1933 Jamboree patch in a couple of other locations and will re-add the patch unless you have other objections. -- btphelps ^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:45, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I was going to change it myself but I was not sure how. So I figured this would be the place to tell you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ivtv (talk • contribs) 22:05, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
