Regardless of the outcome of the debate on the Sean Hood article, I commend your honesty and integrity, rather than hiding behind a nondescript username and/or using multiple accounts to influence the discussion. I hope there are other topics you would like to write about and that you continue to contribute. Thatcher131 05:32, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I concur absolutely with Thatcher13 - I hope you decide to stay and contribute. Let me know if you have any questions or problems and I will do what I can to help. KillerChihuahua^?!? 10:29, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to both of you for your ballanced advice! I will continue to contribute.Seanhood 14:04, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:The perfect article is a great resource.

License tagging for File:(small)Final poster MelanBaby.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:(small)Final poster MelanBaby.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:07, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Accolade Competition[edit]

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

Non-notable award. Does not appear to get covered at all in the mainstream media. No in-depth references on google that don't read like PR releases (mainly from the winners). No independent refs.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

File permission problem with File:Sean Hood, Screenwriter.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Sean Hood, Screenwriter.jpg. 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-en@wikimedia.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-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} 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. Dianna (talk) 03:25, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Accolade Competition for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Accolade Competition is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Accolade Competition until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. KDS4444^Talk 16:15, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Seanhood (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

The block is in fact not necessary to prevent damage or disruption because my actual conduct is not connected in any way with the (reasons for the) block. I was apparently blocked because of vandalism to the page "2018 Sunda Strait tsunami." See: Talk:2018_Sunda_Strait_tsunami Although my username is associated with a change/vandalism, I myself did not make it. I have no idea what 2018_Sunda_Strait_tsunami is and my identity as a screenwriter and my history of edits supports this. I suspect that either 1. Someone hacked my account, or 2. My IP address is identical to another user. Actual mistakes I made back in 2012 amount to forgetting to properly tag a photo and creating a page that was ultimately deleted, but I understand those mistakes and will not make them again. I'm certainly not guilty of "Long-term abuse," or abuse of any kind, so the bock is not necessary. I enjoy using Wikipedia, I am a professor at USC with useful knowledge to share, and I'd like to resume my contributions.

Decline reason:

The edits were clearly vandalism as they involved adding images of penises to articles. If this isn't you, then it is almost certain your account was compromised (you're not the only one). We generally don't unblock compromised accounts because we can't verify if the attackers still have access, but you can still edit if you make a new one following the instructions there.

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
