== A-League squad templates ==

I was about to say "which templates", then I saw the CCM one you just created!  It looks like it is already in the <nowiki>{{fb}}</nowiki> format.  I think that either the captain and manager should be removed from {{tl|AUS fb A-League CCM}} and put in {{tl|AUS fb A-League CCM squad}}, or the squad could be merged with the main CCM one.

I think the second option would be best, as the two will probably always be used together.  The template could also be included on individual player pages, and I don't think it would take up that much room as {{tl|AUS fb A-League}} and {{tl|AUS fb general}} could be omitted.

I also added font-size:90%; to the style for the main cell and previewed it (haven't saved it), it looked pretty good. -- [[User:Chuq|Chuq]] <span style="font-size:90%;">[[User talk:Chuq|(talk)]]</span> 05:11, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

:I like the second option, too. {{tick}} '''Done''', probably still needs some tweaking. Cheers, '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 05:53, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

== Embargo ==

I just read the page on embargoed news.  In the last hour or so, the embargoed story appeared in another Indian publication.  Question: How can I tell that a story is embargoed?  It seems, at first glance, that if embargoed, it should not have appeared anywhere, yet it did. [[User:Vegasprof|Vegasprof]] 09:34, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
:I just read [[Wikipedia:OTRS]], so I think I now have a better understanding. [[User:Vegasprof|Vegasprof]] 10:19, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
::The Indian newspapers breached the embargo, which is by nature voluntary (it's described as a "gentlemen's agreement" in our [[News embargo|article on it]]). When I recieved an email on OTRS from someone related to the planet and its' discovery asking ''(politely)'' if we could ackowledge the embargo, I felt that it would be best to keep the peace and remove it for the 24 hours whilst the embargo was in effect. My [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gliese_581&diff=prev&oldid=125410354 edit summary] (in particular, the "courtesy removal" bit) was meant to carry the connotation that I'd like it to stay out of the article, to keep the peace and our relations with the group who emailed us rosy, but it was not enforcable really. My apologies for the generalness and vague nature of this response, but I am bound by the restrictions on OTRS confidentiality. If you could just wait until 19:00 ET (whichever time zone "ET" is - I'm guessing Eastern US Time, but I don't know), that'd be great. Cheers, '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 10:59, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
:::Thanks, Daniel, for explaining how it works.  This explains why the news appeared in so few places (two Indian and a Malyasian paper).  I was unaware of the embargo; it seems that I had no way of knowing about it.  I have no desire to breach the embargo.  Whatever "ET" stands for, we'll know when the announcement appears in other papers or on the ESO website.  [[User:Vegasprof|Vegasprof]] 11:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
::::Yah, I had no idea of the embargo, and they (the emailers) realised this. Their email was more "Could you please take this down? Although you probably aren't aware, there's an embargo out at the moment" rather than "How dare you infringe on the embargo which you should know about", so they acknowledged our legitimate ignorance.

== Image:Ru_ball.png ==

This image was removed because of an OTRS request (Ticket#: 2007041910024759) by "the Copyright holder". I drew this image and I want to know who requested the take down as I released this image into the public domain as my own work. Anyone claiming to own Copyright for this image is wrong, if not entirely then Partly my own intellectual property. The Discussion on the images for deletion page  will show that this is a generic design. Also it is a 2d Representation of a 2d Object. I would like details of the OTRS and also the original mail from "The Copyright holder". Thanks [[User:Stabilo boss|Stabilo boss]] 10:43, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
:You'd be best to ask [[User:Zscout370|Zscout370]], who endorsed the takedown notice. I merely closed the IfD debate (because the image had been deleted, no point in letting it run on), and noted that there ''was'' an OTRS ticket in existance regarding the image. The discretionary call was made by Zscout. '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 10:59, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
::Please also note that ''details of the OTRS and also the original mail from "The Copyright holder"'' will probably not be provided because OTRS correspondance is confidential. However, your first step is to discuss this with Zscout370; after that, if you want a review of the decision, please follow the instructions listed in the black box at [[WP:OTRS]].

::: Thanks, I've Re-Uploaded the Previous Image, Which never had a Copyright issue, now there's a problem with the 30px Thumbnail, but thats for an Admin to sort out. Cheers[[User:Stabilo boss|Stabilo boss]] 11:40, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
::::I'm pretty sure that's still a copyright issue...referring to other OTRS members for discussion. '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 11:43, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
:::::Actually if thats a Copyright violation then Gilbert are Violating adidas copyright too, As A Ball of similar design existed back in 1990, Also as Similar design is used in the 6 Nations Logo in use since 2000. So as I've pointed out and other users have pointed out on the Images for Deletion page. this is a generic Design, I don't see how "the Copyright holder" is claiming this violates thier Rights?? I don't want anyone getting hassle over Copyright, but as I Created this image from scratch using vector image software, spending my own time and effort doing so, to have someone claiming I can't use it as it is their copyright is seriously annoying me, I will create a new Image and upload it... Rgds [[User:Stabilo boss|Stabilo boss]]
::::::Every OTRS member will now have this to review - it has been sent to the mailing list, which everyone subscribes to. I've noted the subject as "URGENT", which should hopefully end up with a speedy resolution either way. However, please note that we are not a court of law, and to state uncategorically that "Gilbert are Violating adidas copyright too" is not appropriate. I have not said you ''violated'' copyright, I'm saying there's a correspondance between us (Wikipedia/WMF) and Gilbert over this. Until it is resolved, to protect ourselves and you, the image has been deleted. Please await the results of this discussion and evaluation. Whether you created something from scratch is irrelevant - if it infringes on their trademark, then it is a violation. Whether this is the case or not is currently being discussed. Please await a reply, but don't bother to debate it here, because the email has been sent and there's nothing you can say that will make any difference at this point. Cheers, '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 12:21, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
I'll leave it alone until OTRS have deliberated. I would like to see the original correspondance though, after the decision, as it does refer to me and something I've done, and also if there is a copyright issue because of a mail from them then they must in some way, shape or form claim their trade mark has been infringed upon by wikipedia and/or me personally as the creator of this image. [[User:Stabilo boss|Stabilo boss]]
:I have seen the discussion on OTRS and unreservedly support Daniel's actions.  The supposed utility could be well enough served without deriving from Gilbert's registered trademark.  A photograph of an unbranded ball would work just as well. <b>[[User Talk:JzG|Guy]]</b> <small>([[User:JzG/help|Help!]])</small> 17:53, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
::I have reviewed the correspondence in the ticket, including the assertion of copyright. I also reviewed the image, and the history of administrative actions. Without commenting on whether the image actually is a copyright violation or not, (that would be a matter for a court of law to decide) I feel that the image resembles the copyrigthed material closely enough that removing it until the matter is resolved by the copyright holder granting permission or some other resolution satisfactory to the policies of the foundation is absolutely warranted, and I endorse the actions of the administrators involved in this regard.  ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 23:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

== Hey there ==

Hi!

I was going through the backlog on Articles for Creation, and I've noticed that several articles that were declined in their original AfC have been re-created.

For example, [[KDSU]] which was requested on [[Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/2006-01-20]]. What exactly should we do for such articles? I am doubtful whether it deserves its own article, it could very well exist within the DSU article. I would appreciate your guidance on this.

:Having never really worked at AfC, I'm not exactly sure. Could I suggest you ask this question at [[Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation]], where you'll probably get a correct response (as opposed to an incorrect one from me due to not knowing AfC very well)? :) Cheers, '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 03:31, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

* I have asked [[User:Snowolf|Snowolf]] if his bot could help in tagging articles. The response is still pending, but hopefully we will soon have more of an idea of how many articles we have.

* During the two months since the last newsletter, [[Annika Sorenstam]] has reached [[WP:GA|good article]] status. Congratulations to all who worked on this article.

* There has been a recent peer review for [[Jack Nicklaus]]. Please help by following the suggestions that are shown [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Peer review/Jack Nicklaus|here]].

* A new sidebar has been created. If you think it could be improved, go [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Golf/Sidebar|here]].

* Several new templates have been created. Go to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Golf/Templates|templates page]] for a full list.

== Re: [[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Central Coast Mariners FC players/archive1]] ==

Yes, it does, except the 10 day limit is not over yet; technically, you'd have to wait 7 more hours before it can be promoted, and since I've already been told to wait for the 10 day limit to be over, I cannot do anything until at least 7 hours from now. If by the time I log onto Wikipedia tomorrow the list has not been promoted, I'll be happy to promote it myself.--[[User:Juhachi|'''<font color="0066cc">十</font>''']][[User talk:Juhachi|'''<font color="ff66cc">八</font>''']] 08:05, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

::::You're welcome, though I would like to just make a request. I too am trying to get a list up to FL ([[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Kashimashi episodes]]) and so far it has been up for about 9 days and has two supports, including the one I originally gave it when nominating it. Would it be too much trouble to ask you to look over the list and give a support/oppose (preferably support of course). --[[User:Juhachi|'''<font color="0066cc">十</font>''']][[User talk:Juhachi|'''<font color="ff66cc">八</font>''']] 08:29, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

== Locomotive Cove ==

I don't think this article belongs in Wiki and I believe you were wrong to administer on an article where you have personal involvement. I note that this club first played against fans of your side. No consensus may have been found but surely the opinions of long-term editors should carry more weight than that of new contributors who have only worked on the Loco Cove article (although I note that Edblax did find time to vandalise Alvin Ceccoli's article...)

You are the toast of www.sfcu.com.au tonight. No doubt someone will buy you a drink the next time Sydney FC visits Gosford.[[User:Downunda|Downunda]] 09:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

:a) I don't live in Gosford, although if one of the SFC boys wants to send me a schooner from Sydney via mail they most certainly may; b) I don't care who says what, I take the arguments and their relative strength on their merits, not that of the person; c) I couldn't care who played who when, there was no consenus to delete this article as those arguing to keep it cited the primary notability criterion which wasn't sufficiently rejected in my opinion when closing it; d) having never been to that forum before, and having never known about it before you mentioned it, I really couldn't care what they think of me. Sorry, but I find your objection to be unwarranted and not merited. '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 09:26, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

== Thanks ==

Daniel, thanks for looking deeper and deciding on the quick block.  It was the map that was to be deleted as a copyvio, and he's been getting more and more abusive throughout today.  --[[User:Stephen|<b>Steve</b> <sub> (Stephen) </sub>]][[User talk:Stephen|<sup> talk </sup>]] 10:17, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
:I noticed once I found the deleted edits :) I'm about to go offline, so if you're still around for a while longer, could you possibly just watch (or even watch''list'') the talk page to ensure that none of my comments change, like yours did? Cheers, and good luck with the ''certain something'' :), '''[[User:Daniel.Bryant|<span style="color:#2E82F4">Daniel&nbsp;Bryant</span>]]''' 10:19, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
::I kept an eye on things for a bit, he did edit as [[Special:Contributions/202.148.228.19|202.148.228.19]], but nothing too malicious.  I hope he continues contributing post-block as he's done some reasonable stuff, but there's always the threat that people get disillusioned and bugger off out of spite. We shall see.  --[[User:Stephen|<b>Steve</b> <sub> (Stephen) </sub>]][[User talk:Stephen|<sup> talk </sup>]] 04:19, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Daniel. I've been trying to clear the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixindex&from=Arbitration+Committee%2F&namespace=4 arbitration committee subpages] of redirects and other old stuff (to make it easier to sort through them) and I came across [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Clerks/Administration/TBO|this page]], which you created. Is it still used for anything? [[User:Picaroon9288|Picaroon]] [[User talk:Picaroon9288|(Talk)]] 22:02, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
