Hello there Sphilbrick, could you please do me a big favour, as I would be very grateful. Two emails of permission have been sent to Wikimedia Commons OTRS but there has been no reply and no OTRS number given. The image is File:Jodie Connor.jpg. Please could you give it a OTRS number. My best regards - MarkMysoe (talk) 18:34, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Exist big reasons to think that is so. And without any doubts: the speeches of Hillary Clinton - the most competent opinion on this issue (Secretary of State ). The important topic. I hope that owner of the page - not against of such topic at him territory. - 2.94.209.45 (talk) 07:34, 2 August 2012 (UTC).
What can be fully on legal grounds for the usage on Internet freely (from 5 July 2012)? Education, research, charity, cultural diversity, development, fighting with poverty (MDG). Wikipedia - encyclopedia, which respects copyright and has the own rules ( has full right to place on-line materials in the articles: because gives Knowlege for the good of society). This resolution by the UN is welcomed from the side of the US government and can bring favor somewhen in future. For example, in the case of claim from the side of some bad copyright owners. Who can be called bad copyright owner? The such owner, who acts against Wikipedia (in the same time, Wikipedia has full certitude in legality of its actions). This resolution by the UN (5 July 2012) will appear in difficult hour and bad owner will be sent in knockout (as last argument). The tool to defend Wikipedia of any troubles in the relevant scope (copyright). And text here has red colour to show the importance of this Resolution by the UN. The fair sword of Wikipedia sleeps currently on your page (and waits its hour in future and in any moment). Take part in this discussion not means: for or against (neutral relation). I think so. Thank you for attention! - 2.92.180.78 (talk) 15:27, 4 August 2012 (UTC).

Hi Sphilbrick. My bot generates a list of articles that have editors' signatures in them, and one of them it found was World Resources Forum. Normally I just remove the sigs but in this case it looks like there's a copyright notice at the top... I noticed you'd edited it since then so I thought I'd first check with you to see if that needed to stay there for some reason. 28bytes (talk) 18:39, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, There's a question about File:JohnLloydMiller.jpg on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions#Image used tagged for deletion? Help please., where a user is asking why the OTRS permission was added to the Wikipedia file instead of being added to the Commons file. Can you please help him with that? Thanks. -- Asclepias (talk) 23:15, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
I would like to thank you again Sphilbrick for your help. I have uploaded "File:David Dawood.jpg" and "File:Nathan Retro.jpeg" on behalf of the image creators and copyright holders. A email has been sent using the Wikipedia:Declaration_of_consent_for_all_enquiries format. Please Sphilbrick, I would be forever grateful if you can help me to fast track the "File:David Dawood.jpg" and "File:Nathan Retro.jpeg" with OTRS numbers. MarkMysoe (talk) 23:36, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

The Barnstar of Diligence |
I, Kaldari, hereby award Sphilbrick the Barnstar of Diligence for his tireless, high quality work on OTRS. Kaldari (talk) 19:32, 9 August 2012 (UTC) |
Either this is quite simple or i have done i completely wrong. Do i basically have to check, then tag for deletion if it is a copypaste [1] (or revert to prior version if possible)? Backlog, here i come x) benzband (talk) 20:44, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
In response to your question on my talk page, I sent an email containing the full release of the photos of Maximov's artwork into the public domain into Wikipedia english permissions, which was forwarded from Alexei Maximov himself. He released the photos into the public domain so that they might be used on Wikipedia upon my request; I contacted him upon deciding to write a page upon him due to his London opening in early 2012.Jeremy112233 (talk) 23:18, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Thank you again for your help with the previous "Anonymous Editor Vandalism" issue Sphilbrick. I am sorry to trouble you once more with the same nonsense. If you are tired of this, I fully understand. Please recommend another admin that I should approach if you would prefer not to deal with this anymore. It looks like the latest "anonymous" has a new "name". It is "Logiharmonyone". Apparently he or she wants to continue the edit war on the Harmony, Florida page. I attempted to get an explanation for Logiharmonyone's changes, to no avail. Here is what was in place since 2008 prior to Logiharmonyone's edits: In 2005 the development of Harmony was purchased by Starwood Capital Group. Since then several existing amenities in Harmony have been removed and many others promised by the original developer have either been rescinded or remain unfulfilled. These actions on the part of the new developers have created much controversy and consternation on the part of long standing Harmony residents. The marketing promises that were apparently broken or remain unfulfilled by Starwood / Harmony Development Company have been documented in detail by a residents website with an open newsgroup.[4] 4. ^ "Town of Harmony Residents Open Newsgroup". Harmony Residents. March 5, 2006 .... Retrieved 2008-08-12. This time "Logiharmonyone" has no stated rationale in the edit log for the changes. What was removed is historically accurate. Whereas what was added is not only inaccurate, but it also looks like it was written by a middle-school kid with a personal ax to grind. Once again it would appear that an anonymous person like "Logiharmonyone" wants to revise the history of Harmony. It seems that the primary purpose of the edit is to undermine the credibility of the Harmony newsgroup. The newsgroup not only serves the civic purpose of connecting citizens to public officials in and around Harmony, but it also serves to document ongoing issues with the development and the developer. This is not the first time. This is actually the 4th time that the paragraph referenced above has been tampered with. The initial occurrence was in 2010 when you helped with the Harmony, Florida page for the first time Sphilbrick. Here is what another Wikipedia moderator (Phantomsteve) wrote about the 2010 changes: RD2: Grossly insulting, degrading, or offensive material: No evidence that the cited website is all the work of one person - personal attack Prior to the current changes, it can be proven (with IP addresses) that the President of Harmony Development Company (or someone using his computer) actually expunged all references critical of the developer from the Harmony, Florida page on December 7th of last year. You can see it in the Harmony, Florida page history. When discovered, this same person scrambled to undo the changes without realizing that everything was being logged by Wikipedia. Can you please take another look into this Sphilbrick? GeorgeSchiro (talk) 16:32, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
I see that my edits were removed from the Harmony Florida page. I'm a bit unsure why my edits were removed, yet the edits by GeorgeSchiro are deemed permissible. The below excerpt from the page is nothing more than the opinion of GeorgeSchiro who is in no way a neutral party given the fact that (due to his irrational actions) he has been barred from all property owned by the developer of the community and thus has an axe to grind. The citation for this section, "Town of Harmony Residents Open Newsgroup", is a Google group created and moderated by GeorgeSchiro and in no way can be viewed as a reliable or independent source. In fact, if you were to read the posts in the Google group (though I would not suggest you waste your time), 99% of the contributors disagree with GeorgeSchiro's opinions. In 2005 the development of Harmony was purchased by Starwood Capital Group. Since then several existing amenities in Harmony have been removed and many others promised by the original developer have either been rescinded or remain unfulfilled. These actions on the part of the new developers have created much controversy and consternation on the part of long standing Harmony residents. The marketing promises that were apparently broken or remain unfulfilled by Starwood / Harmony Development Company have been documented in detail by a residents website with an open newsgroup.[4] 4. ^ "Town of Harmony Residents Open Newsgroup". Harmony Residents. March 5, 2006 .... Retrieved 2008-08-12. The same applies to the following entry on the page: In 2012 long-standing Harmony residents were still awaiting these promised amenities (for almost a decade) [11]: Businesses in Town Square / Thriving Commercial / Vibrant Town Center Clubhouse Facilities for Recreation Equestrian Club (for all resident horse owners) Farmers Market Lake Club Open Access (to all 11,000 acres) Organized Field Sports Town Entry Spring House Bottom line is, if my edits were not considered valid, the two above made by GeorgeSchiro should not be considered valid either. Logiharmonyone (talk) 02:15, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
the fact that (due to his irrational actions) he has been barred from all property owned by the developer
I just wanted to follow-up on this inquiry. I respect your time and this is certainly not as important to me as it appears to be to GeorgeSchiro, but allowing GeorgeSchiro's edits to remain on this page are contrary to Wikipedia policies for the reasons I mentioned previously: 1) GeorgeSchiro is not a neutral party capable of presenting unbiased factual information due to his public disdain for and legal issues with the company developing Harmony, which I'm told resulted in him being legally barred from Harmony Development property due to his harassment of a college intern regarding previous edits to the Harmony, Florida Wikipedia entry that he deemed "vandalism"; 2) The citations GeorgeSchiro presents as support for his contributions to the page come from a Google forum created and moderator by him, wherein he makes personal posts he terms as "articles" and presents them as factual history. The Harmony, Florida entry would be far more credible without GeorgeSchiro's editorial comments appearing there.Logiharmonyone (talk) 00:29, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
The 'best' for our children? Students in pursuit of honor What kind of people?
A couple comments before I take a hard look at the article:
SPhilbrick, I am completely on-board with your above stated points. I should say that I have never had a professional relationship with Harmony Development Company and my name incorporates "Harmony" only because I live there. I choose to remain anonymous because GeorgeSchiro has a documented history of harassing and bullying individuals who do not agree with him. Having said that, I only made edits to this article because GeorgeSchiro's edits reflect his opinions and his opinions alone, which cannot be verified by a legitimate source not created by him. My neighbors and I feel his edits unduly disparage our community. I am 100% fine with my edits being removed and think the article would be on solid footing with the removal of GeorgeSchiro's as well. GeorgeSchiro's edits aside, the rest of the article, in my opinion, references things that are concrete and easily verifiable. I apologize for the undue amount of time you've had to spend on this small article. My neighbors and I are just trying to do the right thing for our community.
