I just asked Andy Schlafly to give you pic upload rights [[User talk:Aschlafly|HERE]] [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 01:24, 9 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:Thanks, Conservative! I appreciate it. [[User:SharonW|SharonW]] 10:48, 9 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
::No problem. You're welcome. Let me know if you have any problems/questions about the getting the upload rights and I can get clarification if you wish. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 12:24, 9 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::SharonW, your edits have been a good start, but usually a stronger track record is needed before uploading privileges are granted.  Your edits total less than 500.  Let's reconsider your request for uploading privileges later this year.  Thanks.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 22:08, 14 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for cleaning up my user page. I just signed into this website so im not sure what to do with something like this. If you could point me in the right direction id be very grateful. Im just looking to add some minor edits to a few stub articles for now until i get my bearings. --[[User:CAndrs|CAndrs]] 16:57, 13 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== I did the public domain pictures for you ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did the public domain pictures for you. I didn't do the others for two reasons. First, I didn't know the licenses on the other pics. Second, I got the [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc750081.aspx &amp;quot;blue screen of death&amp;quot;] on my computer a few minutes ago. I don't want to risk messing around with my computer more than I have to.  I have two computers and I am going to have the &amp;quot;blue screen of death&amp;quot; computer looked at after I do a few diagnostics and hook up the other computer tomorrow. I would ask another admin to upload the other pics or replacement pics in the meantime. I will also ask Andy again to give you pic upload rights. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are the pics I uploaded:&lt;br /&gt;

== Madonna ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Good evening, Sharon. I wasn't involved in this fiasco until I reverted an edit of Legolas' that by the edit summary was not only reversion of an administrator, seemed illegitimate. I seem to share some sentiment about Madonna with the user, but think they are incorrectly handling this and this should go to the talk page.

Thanks for cleaning up the article I was working on!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 10:58, 22 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And thanks for finding some citations!!! Though I would have when the article was further developed.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 11:22, 22 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again! I just have a tendency to put in repetitive information when clarifing points. What do you think of the progress the article has made? And I did request a few additional images on Mr. Schlafly's page, but he has yet to reply. In the meantime, I will just keep focusing on content. thank &lt;br /&gt;
you again!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 19:28, 27 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I replied to you on my talk page, just in case you didn't notice. Thanks!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 21:13, 27 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have addressed many of your points on the article already. What do you think?--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 22:33, 27 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Elvis is polished and featured with images (if we can get them) etc., I found some articles in addition to Cash and Seger to work on:[[Bob Dylan]] and [[Chuck Berry]]. What do you think?--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 15:22, 29 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added Buffett to my list in case you haven't noticed and dug up my original image requests and put them on the upload request page.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 19:56, 29 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added requests for [[Bob Seger]] images on the page as well as I just started working on it last night.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 10:17, 30 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Did you get to see what I've added to the Seger page yet? And yes, the requests are still pending.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 22:58, 30 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I see you figured out the table. And the images are there as well. I think it's ready!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 10:44, 2 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It looks good. Now we need someone to put it up.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 16:42, 2 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Blocking policy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sharon, your blocks have been great but I recommend not blocking longer than 5 years, except in rare cases.  Five years as a duration is long enough for someone to reconsider his attitude, or have moved away from the blocked location.  Thanks!--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 19:15, 26 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:I have changed it to five years (Hope that's OK). It is a good method to follow! [[User:MaxFletcher|MaxFletcher]] 19:18, 26 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== quick note ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I proposed a blocking reform framework on [[User talk:Aschlafly|Aschlafly's talk page]].  In the meantime, I would not worry about being blocked. If you were blocked, which I doubt would happen, I don't foresee any problem with me getting you unblocked. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 15:15, 28 July 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Featured Articles ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We still need someone to put the new article up. Mr. Martinez (the only sysop on our committee) said he was doing some vacationing. I don't know who else to ask.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On an unrelated note,  have been also been improving [[Regis Philbin]] also (not that popular or recognized as a singer, but he did a few albums. Thanks!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 10:25, 3 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still no word on the featured articles. And were you going to make a table for Seger? All his albums are listed already. Philbin doesn't need one as he only released three albums, though a television show list may be in the works later. Thanks!--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 14:26, 3 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Have you worked on the Cash discography? No rush, just wondering.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 17:08, 12 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== question ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Conservapedian Iduan is on summer vacation, but he has expressed some interest in helping to refine Conservapedia's blocking policy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I invited someone to Conservapedia in the past and he was blocked when he should not have been and I noticed the block and asked for it be overturned and it was overturned. So I think there is room for improvement.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Iduan seems like a nice person who is reasonable and I think he would probably do a nice job in refining Conservapedia's blocking policy. I am sure he could use some help and you expressed interest in seeing the blocking policy made better. Would you like to work with Iduan on this matter?  The final policy changes would be subject to approval by Aschlafly, but once they were approved, I think there is the potential for an improved policy to make a positive difference. I believe a blocking review board that hears about 5-7 cases a month would be good, but maybe a good case could be made for reviewing more cases. Perhaps, some investigation could be made before arriving at the number of cases to be heard. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyways, please let me know if you are interested in helping Iduan and possibly others when Iduan gets back from summer vacation. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 13:22, 13 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi, Conservative! Yes, I am interested in helping. I too have hopes of a workable policy and board for reviews. There is an blocked editor who has emailed me about appealing his block - I've been waiting until things get a bit established before bringing it to the blocking sysop's attention. --[[User:SharonW|SharonW]] 14:46, 13 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
::::I will put you down for the panel and quote you. I will email Iduan and find out when his vacation is over. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 15:00, 13 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Seems to have a vendetta against me.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 21:37, 15 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:I think you should be careful about blocking the accounts beforehand, just incase you hit an innocent Sharon--[[User:SeanS|SeanS]] 21:40, 15 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Another Discography table ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry to bug you again Sharon, but could you do one for [[Michael Lee Aday]]? I plan on working on that one after I finish Cash. If you can't, that is fine. I also requested an image for said article, but that could take a while as we both now know.--[[User:JamesWilson|JamesWilson]] 11:11, 17 August 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;[[Image:John lennon.jpg|thumb|John Lennon]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''John Lennon''', born '''John Winston Lennon''' (October 9, 1940 – December 8, 1980), was a former member of the [[Beatles]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though none of the [[Beatles]] were as successful on their own as they were as a group, John Lennon was considered by many to have the most raw talent.  He struggled with drug addiction, however, and several of his songs related to his habit, such as &amp;quot;Cold Turkey.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lennon was the most outspoken among the [[Beatles]] on political issues, advocating pacifism during the [[Vietnam War]].  At one point the [[United States]] security services investigated him.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a self-imposed five-year break from music to focus on his family and raising his young son Sean, Lennon produced a new album with his [[Japan]]ese wife [[Yoko Ono]] in 1980, entitled ''Double Fantasy''.  Less than a month after its release Lennon was shot dead outside his apartment building by a crazed fan named [[Mark David Chapman]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lennon's most famous individual work is &amp;quot;[[Imagine]]&amp;quot;, a song that beseeches the listener to imagine a world without greed, religion, war, and hatred, but one governed by love, where all people are &amp;quot;living life in peace.&amp;quot; At the end of the song Lennon encourages the listener to join him in dreaming of this world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He remains a hero in [[Britain]], where he was ranked in the top 10 of the 2002 &amp;quot;100 Greatest Britons&amp;quot; poll sponsored by the BBC.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In June of 2007, ''Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur'' was released. The album, whose proceeds went to [[Amnesty International]]'s campaign on behalf of Sudan's war-torn province of Darfur, featured artists of yesterday and today, such as U2, REM, Green Day, and Corinne Bailey Raye covering Lennon's work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Religious views ==&lt;br /&gt;
Lennon's most famous quote regarding the dying state of [[Christianity]] was in 1966:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that; I'm right and I will be proved right. '''We're more popular than Jesus now'''; I don't know which will go first — rock and roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(Emphasis added)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Christians worldwide criticized his attitude, misquoting him as saying &amp;quot;We are greater than Jesus,&amp;quot; Lennon held a press conference on August 11, 1966, in Chicago at which he elaborated:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* I suppose if I had said television was more popular than Jesus, I would have gotten away with it. I'm sorry I opened my mouth. I'm not anti-God, anti-Christ, or anti-religion. I wasn't knocking it or putting it down. I was just saying it as a fact and it's true more for England than here. I'm not saying that we're better or greater, or comparing us with Jesus Christ as a person or God as a thing or whatever it is. I just said what I said and it was wrong. Or it was taken wrong. And now it's all this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* In 1977, John had a brief &amp;quot;[[Born Again]]&amp;quot; phase. He wrote several Christians which included, &amp;quot;Talking with [[Jesus]]&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Amen (The Lord's prayer set to music)&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Help me to help myself&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
