USS Rentz
Nice update on the USS Rentz article. That kind of edit increasing an entry's accuracy is always appreciated. I'm an ex-Rentz sailor and remember being told the erroneous information you corrected. I may even have been the person who entered it in Wikipedia! -Quartermaster 13:26, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks - it's also worth noting that besides O'Callahan (which I remembered off the top of my head), USS Laboon and USS Capodanno are also named after priests.CruiserBob 03:55, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Curtis F. Shoup, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.homeofheroes.com/moh/citations_1940_wwii/shoup_curtis.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 01:00, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:RADM_Joseph_Strauss_in_1919.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:RADM_Joseph_Strauss_in_1919.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}} 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 21:02, 12 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 21:02, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Re: Garage door opener
Presumably, the quick-release handle requirement was written into the law to allow one to get out of a garage during a power failure, where the only door is the roll-up or tilt-up vehicle door and there is no other emergency exit. So, if the power fails at night, and it is pitch black in the garage, what color is the release handle then? —QuicksilverT @ 01:51, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 1
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arcade (architecture), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Arcade Building. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
