Talk:2006 Gay Games

message: User:Kile Ozier kindly added a bunch of new material to the Opening Ceremonies section. Unfortunately, it looks like some of the material may be copyrighted and quoted in whole -- such as the song. Therefore, it may break Wikipedia's copyright policies which you can view at Wikipedia:Copyrights. 
If it isn't copyrighted, it seems to be more appropriate for WikiSource, a sister project of Wikipedia -- the reason being that encyclopedia's don't quote whole texts. That's something that WikiSource does if indeed it is copyright-free.
I removed the text that I suspect to be copyrighted.--Tiger MarcROAR! 20:06, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Opening Ceremonies 

message: That Kile Ozier conceived and directed the opening ceremony is neither relevant, important or interesting so I removed this text from the article. User:Kile Ozier reverted the removal, and left a note on my talk page stating that he deserves acknowledgment having "given up an entire year of [his] life" on the opening ceremony. Kile's addition of this information is an apparent conflict of interest. As a result, I posted the dispute and fact boxes in the article's text. Sorry, Kile.  ;-(   Tiger MarcROAR! 22:46, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I would really like to remove this image because I think it's ugly. Plus, it could be considered a stealth advertisement. Anyone concur? --Tiger MarcROAR! 23:44, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Gay Games VII Logo.svg is being used on this article. 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 this Wikipedia article 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. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I added same archives to the refs. I don't know if the two newspapers in the header still have their articles online as they are not accessible from Europe. So I left the deadurl parameter empty. Whoever can access the newspapers, please feel free to add this information. Gehenna1510 (talk) 02:29, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
