Hi, Richard. The CCI request has been dormant for several months now, and it seems that some of the images of concern remain unresolved. For instance, the CCI request raised questions of the copyright status of [[:File:Schneider Eddie 1937 02.jpg]] and [[:File:Schneider-Eddie NYT 1930ff.gif]]. Glancing at your image uploads, it looks like a CCI will be mostly a matter of somebody separating out the ''vast majority'' of clearly acceptable images to narrow it down to whatever few may remain that reasonably require additional investigation, but it's really the only way to settle the matter. CCIs filed on contributors using real names are opened by date, to help protect privacy, and these are ''never'' indexed for the same reason. Once the issue is clarified (image requests usually go much more quickly than text ones, which sadly can remain open for quite a long time), the page is courtesy blanked and archived. I realize from our previous conversation that you've been subjected to considerable drama over these questions. I don't want that to happen again any more than you do. :) I'd much rather see it quietly dealt with and closed down so we can all keep working on building the project. --[[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 15:27, 19 August 2010 (UTC) |

:Hi, Richard. This is now opened at [[Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/20100822]]. Since images are not my primary thing, I am mostly sorting them into images that need further review (many of which I'm sure are fine, but I have been long confused on the [[WP:NFC]] application to images of non-living people, having had images of non-living people for which I have written FURs myself deleted) and those that don't seem to. I hope it will resolve quickly. Please watch that page if you are interested in conclusions. To avoid spamming people, we do not do individual notices for issues located, but they are annotated there. Let me know if you have any questions, please. I'm watchlisting your talk page for a time. --[[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 19:58, 22 August 2010 (UTC) |

{{unblock|It appears I am being blocked for discussing my harassment here at Wikipedia and at Wiki Commons. It appears that Gwen Gale has issued a gag order that prevents me from discussing my harassment, even on other Wikis. It appears that someone has nominated every image I have loaded to Wiki Commons, and any attempt at discussing it at the XFD forums has been forbidden by Gwen Gale and now is being enforced by others. No ANI that I am aware of has been filed against me. Gwen Gale's gag order was issued without any consensus.}}

Hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. Be bold in editing pages. Here are some links that you might find useful:
- Try the Tutorial. If you have less time, try Wikipedia:How to edit a page.
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, Articles for deletion page etc.) use ~~~~ (four tildes). This will insert your name and timestamp. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes).
- You can experiment in the test area.
- You can get help at the Help Desk
- Some other pages that will help you know more about Wikipedia: Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, Wikipedia:Civility, Wikipedia:Wikiquette, Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not
- If you made IP edits before creating a user account, you can attribute your IP edits to your account at Wikipedia:Changing attribution for an edit.
My wikistalkers
I have a sneaking suspicion that they are either the same person or working together. Most of their contributions appear to be nominating articles that I start.
- User:Torkmann
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Richard H. Sylvester
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/W. L. Shurtleff
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hiram Boardman Conibear
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Suffrage Hike. He wrote: "How is this notable or memorable? I say that is it no different than any of the other myriad women's rights caterwauling that's been going on for the last several hundred years. No different than an article on 'Molly's bra burning at the Bush second inauguration party, 2004, Salem, Mass.' Sourcing seems a bit suspect as well. Rubbish."
- User:Drawn Some
- User:Ocean Mystic Researcher, his newest incarnation
- As it turned out the two were the same along with a third. I am sure there are more. All three personas nominated the same article and the accounts were banned from editing.
New articles
- Quentin D. Corley
- Beatrice O'Brien (1882-1976), was the daughter of an Irish baron. She married Guglielmo Marconi and had three children. She later married the Marchese Liborio Marignoli
- Hiram Boardman Conibear (1871-1917)
- Anna Sands
- Cato Sells
- Geoffrey Gordon Whitney
- Robert Edward Lee Mountcastle (1865-1913) of Tennessee of the Republican National Committee

Willie Hoppe
Hi Richard. I wanted to let you know I moved Willie Hoppe back to his common name because he is by a vast margin the primary topic, as compared with the boxer. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:13, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I see you've changed Harrison Gray Otis into a disambig. Per WP:FIXDABLINKS, could you clean up these links that now point to a disambig? Thanks, --JaGatalk 12:48, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Hello, Richard Arthur Norton (1958- )! We are looking for editors to join the Smithsonian Institution collaboration, an outreach effort which aims to support collaboration such as Wiki-Academies, article writing, and other activities to engage the Smithsonian Institution in Wikipedia. We thought you might be interested, and hope that you will join us. Thanks!!! |
Do you have experience with mass uploading and such on the commons? We kindof need some media/tech liasons for the project. Sadads (talk) 16:54, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
- I Haven't been mass uploading, but I can work on a script to automate the process. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 17:18, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
- I think some scripts have already been developed for the German Federal Archive and Troppenheim museum stuff, I just need someone interested in getting up to speed on the stuff and giving a more technical-oriented workshop. Are you local to the DC area?Sadads (talk) 17:34, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Anthony Graber
Please note that a category has to actually exist before you're allowed to add it to articles. Category:Wiretap and Category:Maryland State Police don't, as you can tell by the fact that they're redlinks, so they can't be on articles (or replace the uncategorized template) until somebody actually creates them properly. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 22:36, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of GCPC
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on GCPC requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Chris (talk) 14:46, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
Per your request
Looks like you created this in 2006, so it's no wonder you don't recall what it was. From October 2008 through today the content was:
GCPC' may refer to:
- Grain Crude Protein Concentration, the percent measure of protein found in grain foodstuffs.
- Global Precipitation Climatology
- Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church
- Gujarat Cleaner Production Center
- Gulf Coast Purchasing Cooperative
- granule-cell-Purkinje-cell, or gcPc, a type of cerebral "synaptic circuitry provides adaptive behavioral plasticity from vestibulo-ocular reflexes to eyeblink conditioning via associative learning"[1]

Thank you
Appreciate your recent creation of Barney Greengrass. I'd started something in my user space eons ago, but never got around to fixing it up. A very worthy topic indeed. Bongomatic 01:16, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
- I have a guest over from California that is doing an eating tour of Manhattan, and he has been talking about going there all week. I think we will get there tomorrow. Yesterday was Katz's Deli, and today was Le Bernardin for lunch. I think Sammy's Roumanian is on the list too. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 01:26, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
- Don't forget Russ & Daughters. Too bad Guss' Pickles isn't in Manhattan anymore (though the half sours at Katz's aren't half-bad). Bongomatic 01:38, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

The additional info you provided is much appreciated. I find that my resources for covering French aces are scantier than for the Brits, if only because France had no London Gazette!
Anyhow, many thanks.
