User talk:EBlack

Welcome!

Hello, EBlack, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.

Additional tips:

Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language

Happy editing!

Reading comprehension comments

If you get permission to use copyrighted material, make sure that is thoroughly documented on the talk page (see [1] for an example); usually it's easier to just write stuff on your own (as you apparently did with the second version of the article). Please try to wikify your articles. References are great, the formatting could use some work (see Wikipedia:Cite sources). Rl 08:17, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

OK, they were pretty enthusiastic about the whole thing.EBlack 07:00, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Image Copyright

I noticed you uploaded Image:Gardner3.JPG and Image:Gardner2.JPG.I wondered if you could elaborate on the source and copyright status of the of the image. You can contact me on my talk page. Cheers. Burgundavia 07:24, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)

The image was taken with copyright permission from an internal company newsletter. EBlack 17:10, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Can you list on the image, what they said exactly? Thus we can figure out if we need to get more permissions from them or not. Burgundavia (✈ take a flight?) 09:46, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

Mind map program

Hello EBlack, this is my first time editing a page, I have read how to do it but apologies if I am doing anything wrong.

Reading the Mind map article and discussion, it looks like you have developed a program based on FreeMind. I know you wanted users to share with each other instead of asking you and so have I contacted some other people.

However if you could provide me with a link to download the program and source code I would be very grateful. I am a big fan of the program FreeMind and if you have developed a version with stronger support for images, I would like to know your opinion on providing the source code to the developers.

Can you e-mail me through the ‘E-mail this user’ feature on Wikipedia. I will not pass on any contact details you provide. My user name is Ryan.1. Thanks

You are in violation of the Three-revert rule.

If you violate the three-revert rule, after your fourth revert in 24 hours, sysops may block you for up to 24 hours.

Please try to reach consensus on the talk page instead of reverting. - Omegatron 20:26, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

I guess sysops were taking a holiday!EBlack 02:45, 7 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a sysop. The key word is "may". - Omegatron 13:45, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

HeadleyDown and EBlack - same person?

Image copyright problem with Image:The three ideologies.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:The three ideologies.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you.

Source and license information for Mind_Mapping.JPG

Possibly unfree Image:Mind_Mapping.JPG

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Mind_Mapping.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page to provide the necessary information on the source or licensing of this image (if you have any), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

G'day EBlack,

I think the Mind Mapping image is fantastic, and I'd really like to see it stay. If you can provide source and licensing information on this image, that would be appreciated.

Unspecified source for Image:Zenmeter.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Zenmeter.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 20:08, 16 February 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chowbok ☠ 20:08, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_comprehension, what do you mean by "read-test methods"? I don't quite understand the phrase, "evidence accumulated that the read-test methods assessed comprehension more than they taught it."
