Super 10

Hi Ronan!

I saw you asked if anyone knew anything about the Super 10 competition that preceded the Super 12. I have an excellent book "10 Years of Super 12" which as well as covering the Super 12, also has a lot of info on the competitions that came before. I keep intending to get some stuff into Wikipedia from it, I'll try harder now that I know that at least one person is interested! —Stormie 23:39, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that would be good. Ronan.evans 01:56, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ronan! Take a look at Super 10 (Southern Hemisphere competition). —Stormie 01:33, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject Rugby union

Hi Ronan, I have noticed you edit rugby articles a fair bit, you should add your name to of rugby-union participants on Wikipedia at the Rugby union Wikiproject. Cheers. Cvene64 18:20, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Reporting vandalism

Thanks for putting the alert out. The way to report vandalism is by adding an alert to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. I put it in my watchlist so it's always easy to link to. I reported the vandal there for you. Thanks again for looking out for the quality of the article! --Elliskev 01:05, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kerry Packer

Hey Ronan, I have noticed that you are one who firlmly beleives that Kerry Packer attended Canberra Grammar School. However, after doing some research, I found that he actually attended Geelong Grammer School, as is said in http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,60-1960657,00.html

Your RFA

That sounds like a good plan, mate! If you want to get feedback on your editing, perhaps consider starting an editor review and mentioning that you've started one on the rugby WikiProject's talk page, so people familiar with your contributions can weigh in hoopydinkConas tá tú? 02:15, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On your RfA page where you originally accepted your self-nomination, you can say that you've decided to withdraw hoopydinkConas tá tú? 02:20, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! First off, I'd hate to see you succumb to editcountits. I hope that you'll measure your contributions not by the quantity of your edits, but by the quality of them. If you're thinking of becoming an administrator in the future, I suggest signing up for admin coaching. This will pair you up with one or a few administrators who will help you get a better feel for certain administrative and policy-related tasks, among other things. Also, take a look at this list of standards some users have outlined as criterion they are looking for in a potential admin. I think you could be a great administrator in the future, but remember adminship is not that big a deal. With that, I'd be more than happy to nominate you for adminship somewhere down the line if, at a later date, you still feel that it'll enable you to become a more productive editor. Cheers! hoopydinkConas tá tú? 03:58, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have closed your RfA because you have decided to withdraw it. Please do not be discouraged by this unsuccessful RfA. You have so far been a great user and contributor to wikipedia. I am sure that wikipedians really appreciate the work that you do and they wish that it will continue. Please refer to this page to get an idea of the experience that you perhaps need so that your next RfA will be successful. You are currently on the right track! Thanks for your efforts.

Image tagging for Image:180px-Tankini-1-.jpg

Removal of sports logos

I see i'm not the only one angered by your removal of Logos from sport competition pages.

Indeed, but that doesn't make you right.

Could you please stop doing it.

Unfortunately, no.

It degrades the quality of these articles.

Maybe, but we can't use logos in this way.

These images are not used for decorative purposes in most cases but as informative tools.

This debate has been had numerous times, and each time the consensus is that it is not fair use. By all means bring it up again at WP:FU, but you will be told the same as all before you.

I request that you stop. I also back the request from others that you stand down as an admin- you have clearly abused your power. Ronan.evans 13:40, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Admin powers are block and protect. I have not used these here, let alone abused them.

...are absolutely awesome! You appear to be a conciencous, knowledgable and intelligent editor, and have shown real prowess and bold attitude when editing A-League 2006-07, especially. I wish to extend an invitation to you to join Wikiproject A-League. Your edits are exactly the type we love to see in people involved in A-League articles, and I'm sure we, and you, would benefit from joining the Project.

Oh, and I responded to your comment here. Daniel.Bryant 12:14, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A-League Newsletter II, 2006

WikiProject A-League Newsletter
Issue II – September 2006
Current Player project status
10% complete
A-League News


Project News
  • The Player project has been moved, overhauled and refined. It now is not limited to the 2005-06 player list. However, only 10% of articles are considered "complete", and hopefully we can get this figure to approach 100% by the end of the season.
  • Major changes to the layout of the 2006-07 A-League season page have taken place recently, and an infobox created. A table for attendances, as well as top scorer etc. are now in place. All users are encouraged to update the scores for completed matches as they come in.
  • Recently, Perth Glory F.C. was moved to Perth Glory FC after no objections were raised at the Wikiproject talk page. All links to the old page (including various templates) were changed.
  • The project requires pictures of games and stadiums to help improve articles. Any pictures are much appreciated.
  • The A-League Portal has been set up. Feel free to update the scores, and make sure you check out the selected article and picture each fortnight.
  • The football (soccer) barnstar has recently became the official award of the Wikiproject. Feel free to hand it out to anyone you see making excellent contributions to all things A-League related.

Expansion of WP:A-League

Hi Ronan.evans,

Just thought I'd let you know there is currently a proposal to expand WikiProject A-League to include all areas of football/soccer in Australia, including the NSL, A-League, Socceroos, state leagues and more. A more formal proposal page can be found here. Please indicate whether you support the idea or not at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject A-League, and also add your 2c about what the new project should be called. Cheers! – AlbinoMonkey (Talk) 04:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use images in lists

Hello, I see you have contributed your thoughts to Wikipedia talk:Fair use/Fair use images in lists. It's been dead for a while, but I have archived it and taken a new fresh start. I hope this time we will be able to achieve something as I have summarized the main points of both sides (feel free to improve them) and I call you to express your support or oppose on the concrete proposal that I have formulated. Thanks, Renata 02:31, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Ronan, Just commending you on the great work you have done for Wikipedia. I especially like you work on Jerrabomberra. Keep it up man! If i can, i will possibly try to help out with you wherever i can!

Hey, I see you are a participant of Wikiproject Rugby Union. A template has been created {{WPRU Announcements}} for the project. It's function is to allow users to better communicate and co-ordinate tasks. Please consider placing it on your user page. Thanks. - Shudda talk 11:16, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Eagles Logo-1-.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Eagles Logo-1-.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 19:49, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Eagles Logo-1-.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Eagles Logo-1-.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:49, 17 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 19:49, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
