DYK for Bath salts (drug)
On 25 July 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Bath salts (drug), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that so-called bath salts, a class of designer drug that became popular in the last decade, often contain mephedrone, which was first synthesised in the 1920s? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Orphaned non-free media (File:Bestgore.com-LOGO.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Bestgore.com-LOGO.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:50, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Unexplained revert
If you look at other chess biographies with sample game(s), the sample games section typically always comes last in the article. Another reason I relocated the "Death" section you created, putting it prior to "Legacy" section, is that it seemed to me more logical order (i.e. legacy being something secured after dying, not before).
I would like to understand your reasoning for reverting my relocation of the section. Can you explain for me? Thank you. Ihardlythinkso (talk) 17:16, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Lygosoma veunsaiensis
I edited the article Lygosoma veunsaiensis so as to cause the binomial "Lygosoma veunsaiensis" to appear in italics throughout, as recommended by Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Text_formatting#Scientific_names. I also reworded that last sentence of the article. You have reverted all these changes, with the explanation "Place back incorrectly deleted information." I assume that this refers to my blanking of the "name" field in the taxobox: I did this to cause the name at the top of the taxobox to be italicised, see Template:Taxobox/doc#Bold.2Fitalic_markup. However your reversion has restored the incorrect use of roman type for the binomial, and the wording of the final sentence. Maproom (talk) 09:52, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Replaceable fair use File:Bath salts (drug).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Bath salts (drug).jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:38, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
