By the way, I reverted your change to ReactOS today. ReactOS is not a current event, or all software that is being developed (including Linux and its many distributions) would be current events. It was removed in the message history. You can go to the ReactOS talk page if you want to discuss it. Mike Trausch (fd0man, Talk Page) 20:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Mitchell and Webb as Mac and PC.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:10, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi there. I'd just like topint out, that there is a user socialist template located at User:Lewisskinner/userboxes/template:user socialist, which may be added by using {{User:Lewisskinner/userboxes/template:user socialist}} on your userpage. By all means, use either one you wish, but I do feel that your template slightly misrepresents communism. L.J.Skinner^{wot|I did} 23:51, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1) Not to be rude, but I am NOT communist. As my template says, I tend to turn toward a peaceful change toward free benefits, the way that I learned about socialism. 2) Thanks for telling me this. I ask you to add that template to WP:BOX to make it visible to users (I couldn't find it there!). If it is already there and I am not looking in the right place, then just tell me. I was looking in Politics. - PGSONIC 00:10, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify what I learned socialism is: "Socialism is the public owning of property and the government offering free benefits to people, such as healthcare. Socialism differs from Marxist Communism as it is to come about in a peaceful manner, rather than using fighting." When I learned about it I was immensily satisfied with this system, as it was both peaceful and benefitting. If there is a specific name for this, please let me know. - PGSONIC 00:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One more point: I also have two more differences from Communism: 1) The government stays intact except for such loss of power. Communist regime has the government made to just "wither away". 2) No preference is made to the individual or group being the primary driving force. Communism clearly defines the group as the most important. - PGSONIC 00:59, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, you have a fair grasp of socialism (I myself would place myself firmly in your camp!) Communism is simply revolutionary socialism - getting to a socialist system through direct action. The idea is that as the workers control the means of production (ie, if they all took th day off then the production will stop, unlike if the manager did so), they are able to utilise this power through strikes and industrial action to get into power. The problem with election-based socialism (esp in the UK) is that even if you and I formed a socialist party, and won at least the 324 seats necessary for a majority, every law we tried tried to pass (for the good of the people) would be repeeled by the (unelected) house of Lords. The independant (and with it's own agenda) Bank of England, could put up interest rates for the sake of it. The Queen would still technically have legal power over us.

Anyway, it was more the use of the word "war" to which I mot objected. But hey, I'm a lover, not a fighter :) L.J.Skinner^{wot|I did} 21:48, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"war-like" -> "revolutionary". - PGSONIC 00:25, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cool :). Well, welcome to wiki, and I hope you'll have fun! L.J.Skinner^{wot|I did} 19:08, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Comparison of raster graphics editors and List of raster graphics editors were merged several months ago, which was several months after the proposal to merge them. Your reversion of this merge without discussion and your use of ALL CAPS on the talk pages (which is seen by many to indicate "shouting") and the threat to revert weren't very civil. I hope that you can participate in the discussion I opened up, since you seem to feel so strongly about this issue. --Karnesky 00:21, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that you added a short summary at the beginning of the Atmel AVR article, stating that AVR stands for "Alf and Vengard's RISC Processor." However, in section 1, the article states that there is uncertainty as to what AVR stands for:

• Advanced Virtual RISC
• Alf and Vengard's RISC Processor
• Nothing at all - the official Atmel party line

Should the introduction be re-written to eliminate this bit of trivia, and instead focus on a very quick summary of the chip? How about this, partly ripped off from the Intel 8051 article?

The AVR is a Harvard architecture 8-bit RISC single chip microcontroller (µC) which was developed by Atmel in the late 1990's. The AVR was one of the first microcontroller families to us on-chip flash memory for program storage, as opposed to OTP ROM, UV-erasble EPROM, or EEPROM.

It's rough, but it's a start. What do you think? Pfagerburg 15:15, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's good. I noticed that at times, if someone adds somethings, it gets refined over time. I found that expansion in the book Operating System Fundamentals by D. Irtegov. I really like the 8-bit part - every processor article should have how many bits it supports at the beginning. - PGSONIC 15:20, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If AVR unambiguously stood for something, I might favour leaving that in the header, though it does seem like a bit of trivia. The first section of the article does offer a few possibilities, including the one from the book you mentioned, along with Atmel's official statement that it doesn't stand for anything. I'll make the change. Thanks for your feedback. Pfagerburg 15:58, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add the <source> tag to Wikipedia articles unless you are very sure that you know what you're doing. At the moment, <source> is horribly broken, and should not be used except possibly for Pascal. Please use <code> instead (with the optional lang= parameter if you like; Wikipedia currently ignores it, but bots may thank you someday). See MediaWiki talk:Geshi.css for more discussion of <source>'s current state of disrepair. Thanks! --Quuxplusone 02:26, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip. I'll go fix it also for itoa.

Thanks for uploading Image:LeopardDock.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:09, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi PGSONIC!
We thank you for uploading Image:DockIcon.png, but there is a problem. Your image is currently missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Unless you can help by adding a copyright tag, it may be deleted by an Administrator. If you know this information, then we urge you to add a copyright tag to the image description page. We apologize for this, but all images must confirm to policy on Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks so much for your cooperation.

Hi. When you recently edited Illbleed, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AIA (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
