The poster of the image gallery you removed has been anonymously edit warring with its removal. I just tagged all three images with ((dfu)), so I'm going to try and deal with it that way; if they continue to revert without justification I'm just going to block and delete them all and let God sort it out.

Hi Angr. Sorry to bother you with more of this stuff, but there's another article with nonstandard pronunciation guides for Irish: Carty (name). I was trying to fix it myself, but I just don't know enough to. Take care --Miskwito 00:13, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Hey man, I see you archived the talk page, do you have any thoughts on the current content or how it should be re-organised ? Would appreciate some input from real linguists :) - Francis Tyers · 22:32, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Next time please have the courtesy to read more carefully before swinging your axe. The source of the image and license (logo) were both clearly stated:
Please restore the image. Thank you. --John Navas 04:34, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
On August 8th this page was deleted following a deletion review of "Permanent North American Gaeltacht". This page has now been re-established and approved. I request that you reinstate this redirect page, as It is what many people will likely type in to search and the system will not allow me to recreate it myself. Thanks! Danjdoyle 20:24, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the speedy response. I tried twice to no avail, then once more after you said so an it worked fine...must just be my terrible lan line! Thanks anyway and sorry to trouble you. Danjdoyle 20:30, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Hey Angr, a few months ago you suggested a French etymological dictionary by Dauzat et al., which I ended up buying last week, when I discovered a French bookstore here. I was looking at Le Petit Robert too, which also has etymologies, but of course it's about 5 times more expensive! Thanks for your help!

The author's portrait image has been deleted.
I just noticed your "stocker": User:Angr/User no fair use
To your first question, no; she is still alive and therefore using a nonfree image of her violates Wikipedia policy. To your second question, it means that because Wikipedia is a free content encyclopedia, I don't think nonfree image should be used here. —Angr 07:48, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
PatPolitics rule! 20:23, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Did you see this new section? If so, then I'm sorry to have bothered you. Stefán 17:43, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
I believe that you have locked in the reverter's text, User talk:DominvsVobiscvm#Three-revert rule, whom you rebuked for repeatedly violating the three revert rule. He will have no problem with that! Ironically, this is what happened on the Archdiocese of Miami, too. So the reverter wins in both cases! About a total of six editors have been trying to combat him since early July with no help at all from Wikipedia. If someone could ever lock out his changes you might get a discussion going. But here, he just goes home happy. No reason to even edit again or get on Wikipedia again. His hate group wins! A mediator has "been referring" us to arbitration since mid-August or earlier. The mediator is also in school so it's not exactly a top priority with him. Student7 23:54, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
You put the "no source" tab on Image:PILAR-SVJ-RAT.jpg. It's the cover of a book published in 1917, by an author who died in 1933. So what are you doing? --Zmaj 18:22, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
Are you having a laugh!!! You've just added about 50kb of tags to my user page ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 19:57, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
I just thought you might like to put this template on your user/talk page.
<div style="position: fixed; right:0; bottom:0; display:block; height:120px; width:120px;"><div style="position: relative; width: 120px; height:120px; overflow: hidden"> <div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; font-size: 300px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 300px; z-index: 3"></div> <div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; z-index: 2">[[Image:Say_NO_to_Fair_Use.svg|120px]]</div> </div> </div>
I grabbed this image off of the net somewhere, probably from imdb. It is clearly a publicity photo, released by the actress or her agent with the expectation that it be widely used. Wikipedia has (or, once upon a time, had) an explicit exception allowing the use of such images. (In fact, that's the license template I used when I originally uploaded the image.)
Ruth Gordon is dead. No one will possibly ever be able to go and make a new, wholly-free-use picture of her.
If your crusade against fair-use images is such that you believe this article would be better without an image (forever) than with the image it has now, go ahead and delete it. I disagree rather strongly, but I have zero time or stamina to argue with you about it. --Steve Summit (talk) 02:45, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Dear Angr, Please come see that DominvsVobiscm is continuing an edit war on the page Roman Catholic Sex Abuse Cases in the Archdiocese of Miami section. We have all discussed this and come to the conclusion that his edits do not belong on this page. They are not sex abuse cases. He just adds the material and there is no discussion input from him. Help!NancyHeise 19:41, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed your user page the other day and I felt the logic behind it was irrefutable. Do you mind if I translate it and post it on the Korean Wikipedia? Thank you. --Kjoonlee 15:40, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Hey Angr, sorry to bother you, but I was hoping you could answer a few of my questions. I'm at College now (KSU) and am studying German. I'm naturally just parroting her accent, which is non-rhotic, but here are the questions:
Thanks again for your time.Cameron Nedland 18:31, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Dear Angr, I have just undone an edit on the page Roman Catholic Sex Abuse Cases http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholic_sex_abuse_cases placed there by User talk:DominvsVobiscvm after he was blocked yesterday. Can something be done to stop this person from repeatedly placing this material on this page? NancyHeise 16:33, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
I just want to stop by and thank you for helping out with the DominvsVobiscvm situation.StacyyW 13:24, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
Dear Angr, please see that even after more discussion and additional showing of consensus by editors, DominvsVobiscvm has reverted the article Roman Catholic sex abuse cases twice today already. What can be done to stop this and remove the material from the locked Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami page. I would like to add material to both of these pages but no one can do anything until DominvsVobiscvm situation is addressed.NancyHeise 18:43, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
I think that was a bad idea. I'm not going to revert you, but I would appreciate if you would revert yourself. Unprotecting the article is just going to open it up to more revert warring -- the dispute needs to go through Arbitration, and the committee and I have to prepare for that. I've been busy in real life lately, but this issue will be taken care of soon. Andre (talk) 22:14, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
Cad faoi? Just thought I'd mention that the Irish language wiktionary is back up and running after a very long hiatus. It's a hive of activity right now. Care to pop over and join us? - Alison ❤ 08:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC) (a go on! You know you want to!)
Although I am not the uploader, if you undelete Image:Bellingham bulls.JPG, I will add FU Rationale. DMighton 02:56, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I see you uploaded Image:VirginiaSatir.jpg, Image:VirginiaSatir1.jpg, Image:VirginiaSatir2.jpg, Image:VirginiaSatir3.jpg, and Image:VirginiaSatir4.jpg as ((PD-self)), which means you are the creator (i.e. photographer) of all these images and release all rights to them. Is this the case? Since other languages' Wikipedias have articles on Virginia Satir, I'd like to move the images to Commons, but to do so I need to be sure that you actually have the authority to release these images into the public domain. Thanks! —Angr 13:43, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I am the photographer for these images. Please feel free to move the images to Commons. William Meyer 18:16, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Dear Angr, you have a little message on hsbwp. I would be glad, if you could produce a little nice image for the upper sorbian wikipedia, because we at the moment can use the german version only. Greetings --Tlustulimu 16:06, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Splice.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:26, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Hello - I see you've participated in the TalkPage discussion at Lough Neagh. I have created a table of the different contributors and their views/arguments about the geographical description to be applied. I am proposing that, if there is a clear consensus then the article is modified to reflect the consensus amongst editors. I am notifying each of the people I've identified as having been interested of this fresh opportunity to reach a consensus and settle this matter. Wikipedia has a policy on canvassing, please do not breach it with actions that are, or could be seen as being, partisan. PRtalk 07:22, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
I have provided further rationale to the image description page. Please, leave a note to my talk page before you tag it to let me know what you think of it. Dispute tags and policy pages don't detail specific concerns about specific use. Besides, ((db-author)) still remains the fastest speedy deletion tag. Allow me to be gallant and request a deletion myself, if I fail to provide a satisfactory rationale that would hold in a court. Aditya(talk • contribs) 13:34, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
That was about the phenomenon, as exemplified by Leena the photograph. A phenomenon is not a one shot thing. Right? I have undone that edit and fixed the copy to accommodate the particular happening. I hope you don't mind giving editors a chance to improve upon things instead of deleting good faith attempts right away. Aditya(talk • contribs) 15:06, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
