John G. McCaskey[edit]

I see you have done a lot of work on this article recently, and it is much appreciated. Could you please try to fix the citation style (proper use of citations, proper citation format)? It would help this article out a great deal. If you need it, more information can be found at WP:CITE, and if you have questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks, Chris Griswold (☎☓) 17:11, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Conoco[edit]

Thanks for the clarifications - it makes sense now. I am just learning here - in this case I can see that it would have been better to ask you for clarification before editing the article. Peace, Ugly Elephant 03:08, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Willie-Cries-For-War Oil Well.gif[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Willie-Cries-For-War Oil Well.gif. 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 06:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Liftarn 06:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits[edit]

Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:CONOCO Image.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:CONOCO Image.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 07:13, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are right! I have done some original research, and discovered that what I produced on the 101 Ranch was not good (in fact is was very poor).

Speedy deletion nomination of File:101 Ranch Oil Company Celebration dinner @1915.jpg[edit]

A tag has been placed on File:101 Ranch Oil Company Celebration dinner @1915.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

You need to respond to this[edit]

Your username is the same as an energy company. This goes against policy.

You are only editing articles relating to the energy industry. In light of the username issue, this suggests a conflict of interest.

As per my previous message, there is a way to request that your username be changed. This, along with clarifying your purpose on the site, would be useful if you wish to continue editing the site. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:42, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're going to respond to this[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for being named after an energy company, only editing articles relating to the energy industry, and refusing to discuss the matter after being given a hell of a lot of opportunity to do so.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:40, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

. My user name (JCMCapital) predates the energy company (also there is an investment management company). I did not grant them permission to use my Wikipedia user name. But I’m OK with that. Also note, there is no space between M and Capital in my user name. There is with the energy company and the Investment Management Company. So there is no issue. I am not concerned, you should not be either. JCMCapital

Hay: I am concerned that you have access to this web site. I've instructed Wikipedia to remove you from its site, and prohibit you from ever having access. Or I will bring a MAJOR class action!!!!!!!!!!!! jcm

Please see WP:NLT. " Users who post legal threats on Wikipedia are typically blocked from editing while the threats are outstanding." Please withdraw your legal threat, if you wish to be unblocked from editing. Thanks. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:32, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As has already been pointed out, we already have a policy against legal threats. Now, while it's not something we put on the front page... it should almost be common sense that such attempts at bullying would not be tolerated. Even if your account is renamed, you still need to withdraw that threat if you want to be unblocked.

This site has established social contracts, and you have violated some seriously grave ones. These have been pointed out to you by two people chosen by the community to facilitate those social contracts, and your response is to ignore them. When one of those people chosen by the community held you accountable, you demanded that I be removed for inconveniencing you.

Between failing to withdraw the legal threat after Deepfriedokra asked you to, responding to a block with a legal threat, only responding to the username issue after you were blocked for it instead of during the many weeks you were given, I'm having a lot of trouble imagining how you could be a cooperative member on a collaborative project. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:44, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welp, just so you know this is a community decision and not just me and Ian saying it, you have until I get back to withdraw the legal threat.. If you do not, I will report to the community and let them deal with the legal threat. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 23:34, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rename[edit]

You requested renaming from Jcmcapital to JCMCapital2. Further down you wrote, "JCMCapital to JCapital2". That's still too close, if you are going forward with renaming. Please let me know. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:26, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Too close for what? I doubt that Wikipedia’s rules have that subtle sense. Please send me a Wikipedia link that defines close for username. I doubt that exists, but I'll wait. Or simply approve my change request. jcm

I may be making progress. I attempted to (again) change my username, but instead it caused me to petition for another hearing from a different user. Hopefully that will solve this perplexing issue. jcm

Hope that works out. Do not see it in the global renamer queue. You could/should really sign your talk pasts with 4~'s. Thanks. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 21:17, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am not familiar with that. Had trouble even findinf ~. Now I know. It would be easier on both of us if you simply allow the change. Why not?

Jcmcapital (talk)

Deepfriedokra, I declined the request at ticket:2021042710014012 as the name requested still has corporate taint. Plus a personal attack. Jcmcapital seems unwilling to play nice with other users.

Jcmcapital, it would be best if you request your rename & unblock together on this page. Use {{Unblock-un|user=new username|reason=your reason here ~~~~}} to structure your request. Your reason will need to include a withdrawal of your legal threat which is a sine qua non. No retraction, no unblock. Cabayi (talk) 08:31, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabayi: Thanks. That must be OTRS or some other bit I have no access to. 'fraid I cannot help but concur with your assessment. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:11, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Renamer note: Please see prior requests. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 15:14, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have fallen through the looking glass! Wikipedia has allowed a psychopath user to abuse me this past month. In April, I was been informed by some “User” at Wikipedia that I am in violation of some rule because in 2009 a Canadian investment company (JCM Capital) chose to use my Wikipedia username (Jcmcapital: which I established in the 1980s) in their company name without my granting them permission. The Wikipedia User blocked my access to being involved in Wikipedia, unless I change my username. Why this comes up 12 years after the event is dsiturbing. So I submitted a change request to use “JCMCap”, which was available, and did not appear to be in conflict with any other use, so by Wikipedia standards would be OK. But that was rejected with a comment from the Declining User "JCMCap still refer (sic) to JCM Capital”. UGH? I doubt that Wikipedia’s rules have that subtle sense. Why the declining g user has the authority to reject my username is disturbing. So I resubmitted a change and I selected “JCapital2”, which was available and appears to be unused elsewhere. But the declining user declined to approve for no reason within Wikipedia’s norm. Saying simply “that is still too close”. I doubt that Wikipedia’s rules have that subtle sense. At this point, the users conduct became formal (chargeable) abuse! I requested help in eliminating this organizational abuse from the Wikipedia “Declining User”. I’m told that that can only be accomplished by having Wikipedia block the Declining User’s authority in Wikipedia. That has not happened. Clearly Wikipedia is not organizationally able to prevent such abuse. Short of bringing civil action against the user (which I am disinclined to do), my only choice is to disengage with Wikipedia. So I will. My user name (JCMCapital) will remain. jcm

Good: we don't need users who can't see how they might be the problem but instead have to misrepresent clearly spelled out processes to paint themselves as the victim. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:22, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if that is your wish, or you could request a username that does not refer to JCMCapital. The choice is yours. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 01:59, 29 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
