Jackson Lab

Ok, I'll bite -- why does Jackson Lab get a UMaine Nav box? And why have a UMS Nav Box when they're already included in the Universities in Maine navbox? --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:11, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From what I understand, Jackson Lab is closely associated with the University of Maine. They share research, faculty and graduate students and often collaborate on projects (see this). I didn't realize there was already an infobox that included all the maine public universities. eaglecorpse (talk) 17:32, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Closely associated" is a pretty loose term - by that definition, there are probably 50 organizations associated with Jax. Likewise, MPBN is closely associated with UMaine in name only - they split from the university over 15 years ago.... Scolbath (talk) 14:58, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:2008-10-20 Maine Campus.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:2008-10-20 Maine Campus.jpg, which you've sourced to http://mainecampus.com/. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 23:46, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Looking for source for beer die

Hey eaglecorpse, im trying to narrow down the origins of beer die. I saw that you said you found an article from the late 40s in the UMaine archives saying that a "drinking game was taking campus by storm", I looked through and couldnt find anything, but if you could tell me when you think that article was printed or something that will help me find it that would be awesome — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnbaker1999 (talk • contribs) 19:46, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Publish2

The article Publish2 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article for journalism startup that shows no evidence of having taken off. The only third-party source is TechCrunch, which is listed on WP:RSP as a source that is not so useful for determining notability. A WP:BEFORE shows a bit of launch publicity in 2010; the site stopped updating in 2013. There's no evidence this was ever notable.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
