History of The United States 1988-present NPOV

In response to your messages on my talk page and the History of the United States (1988-present) talk page:

I don't think there is a need to include mention of the Madrid attacks or the South Korean impeachment proceedings as factors in those respective countries' decisions to withdraw. Three reasons:

The subject of the article is History of the United States. Terrorist attacks and domestic politics that take place in other countries should not be included in the article unless they have a direct, first-degree impact on the United States itself (as opposed to just having an impact on a U.S.-led overseas military action).
A mention of the March 11 attacks and the ROK impeachment proceedings, and the effects they had on their governments' decisions to withdraw, would be more appropriate on the War on Terrorism page.
I'm not clear on which point of view you think is advanced by intentionally excluding these details, or how including them would fix it.

hello mr made brown man

you should not mention a link of the rainbow sexual activity on the Rainbow (political party) site, because that can be seen and is offending to alot of people, especially in the Balkan region. if you want to, make a diffirent page like it allready is , for the user to choose wich page he or she is looking for, but not mentioning on the political party page. i hope you understand and greetings.--Makedonia 22:49, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree Image:Arkansas.plate.gif

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Arkansas.plate.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page to provide the necessary information on the source or licensing of this image (if you have any), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Image Tagging Image:La pelican.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:La pelican.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 14:31, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Brettfern

Hi. I've de-listed the above editor from WP:AIV as I do not see any evidence of vandalism. Right now, it looks like the editor, though somewhat uncommunicative, is wikignoming through articles & there's nothing wrong with that. He seems to be removing uncited or irrelevant text. Have you thought about maybe bringing the matter up on his talk page? (preferably without calling him names this time) - Alison ☺ 06:08, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

WP:Hornbook -- a new law-related task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi Mrbrown/Archive,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

Each casebook will have a subpage.

Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Please do not call other editors an "ass" as you did in the summary of this edit. Additionally, please use CiteWeb to properly reference sourced material. Sottolacqua (talk) 19:11, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll call you what I want to call you, cowboy. The way I see it, you abuse the rules of wikipedia to mold pages into what you want them to be, and get the pages you want deleted, deleted. That, friend, makes you an ass. --Mr. Brown (talk) 19:19, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And as to citing for articles, I have much more important issues to attend to. If you want to fix the citation, you seem to be pretty adept at that. Heck, why don't you just revert it back (since you'll probably do that anyways, or nominate the article for deletion) since you seem to think nothing is notable, and nothing constitutes a proper citation. --Mr. Brown (talk) 19:21, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
