License tagging for File:Ivor Ichikowitz.png

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Ivor Ichikowitz.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:06, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Ivor Ichikowitz.png

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Ivor Ichikowitz.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 16:28, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

About your edit to Abdul Taib Mahmud

edit

The last intact revision of this article was (cur | prev) 09:46, 1 April 2011 FrescoBot (talk | contribs) m (56,182 bytes) (Bot: links syntax) (undo). However, 62.212.66.131 disrupted the reference links with "%2F" and you was mislead into deleting all the disrupted references without checking the article history and the article references against the article sentences in "Controversies" section. Then, you claimed that all the sentences are completely unreferenced and will delete them if they are not referenced. I regret that I have not reverted them in time and it will be troublesome to add all the references back again. Therefore, I hope that if I can ask somebody for help to rollback the recent changes to last revision by Frescobot. Anyway, thanks for your interest in Abdul Taib Mahmud article! Cerevisae (talk) 12:39, 5 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I have perfected this article and references are added back again. Do feel free to check the controversial statements against its sources. Remember that there can be 2 or 3 sentences taken out from only one source, so the source is only added after those 2 or 3 sentences. About deleting dead links, I have a quote below from this wikipage: "Wikipedia:Link rot"

"Do not delete factual information solely because the URL to the source does not work any longer. WP:Verifiability does not require that all information be supported by a working link, nor does it require the source to be published on-line. Except for URLs in the External links section that have not been used to support any article content, do not delete a URL solely because the URL does not work any longer. Recovery and repair options and tools are available."

Hope these helps! You are welcome to contribute to this page to make the article better! Cerevisae (talk) 13:03, 6 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'm going to paste the exact warning that was generated when you uploaded the image:

The use of this file is permitted only on Wikipedia.

Dear uploader: This media file, which you just uploaded, has been listed for speedy deletion because you indicated that only Wikipedia has permission to use this file. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, since explicit permission to use it was given, this is in fact not the case. [1] [2] Please do not upload any more files with this restriction on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it. See our non-free content guidelines for more information.

If you created this media file and want it to be kept on Wikipedia, remove this message and replace this with {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-3.0}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want it to be used on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may replace this message with one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
MrKIA11 (talk) 14:34, 14 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
I assume the reason they have it is because some users will be looking for that option, and they assume the user will see the warning. So instead of an image being uploaded with bogus licensing, it is marked as a problem. MrKIA11 (talk) 15:06, 14 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of The 1945

edit

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The 1945 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:53, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Nomination of The 1945 for deletion

edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The 1945 is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The 1945 until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:00, 20 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Dahabshiil

edit

Hi. Actually, it's you who should have discussed your changes and first sought consensus since they were quite substantial. The civil war is not an integral part of Dahabshiil's history; only the fact that it benefited from a larger Somali diaspora is, and that was already mentioned as was much of what you added, only without peacock terms. Please refer to the manual of style for how to write in a neutral encyclopedic register. Regards, Middayexpress (talk) 08:53, 6 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

I see you have gone ahead and re-added the same material without bothering to first obtain consensus. This is not helpful and a clear violation of Wikipedia's bold-revert-discuss policy. You actually first need to discuss the changes you would like to make, try and obtain consensus for them, then add them only after they have been obtained. That is how Wikipedia works. I have therefore reverted your edit until we reach an agreement on what is admissible and not undue weight and what isn't. Kindly meet me on the article's talk page and let's discuss. Middayexpress (talk) 10:36, 6 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
I already responded there. I'm waiting for your reply. Middayexpress (talk) 11:34, 6 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

The 1945

edit

The way we assess a WP:CONSENSUS is to look at the strength of arguments against policy. Our inclusion criteria requires multiple reliable secondary sources which the sources you provided did not match. So, although there were only 4 votes, the two delete votes were grounded in policy and your defence of the sourcing was refuted by the detailed exposition of the sources against policy by the AFD niminator. The remaining vote was a assertion by a very new editor and per arguments to avoid and giving much less weight to new users' votes the vote was thrown out. That left two editors who had carefully considered the sourcing and found it wanting and another who said that they were OK but their argument had been refuted by a detailed analysis. Accordingly the delete arguments were found to be grounded in policy and won the discussion over the keep arguments which were either weak, invalid or refuted.

Dahabshiil #2

edit

Hi Biggleswiki. I just noticed the new edits to the Dahabshiil article and your discussion with Bot3skfjs on his/her talk page. As no consensus has been agreed to yet for such a major change, I reverted the edits and left some remarks and proposals here. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 19:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello again. I've left a brief note on Bot3skfjs's talk page. The user has asked both of us to stop posting on his userspace (which is, after all, his prerogative per WP:BLANKING). However, per WP:CONSENSUS, that doesn't mean a rough consensus still can't be formed. I've also had a chance to re-read your initial post and follow the links you supplied there. And indeed, according to the Washington Post [3], the allegations against the firm were later dropped from the U.S. government's summary of evidence. If these allegations are to be mentioned at all, then the passage at the very least needs to be completely re-structured to reflect this as well as the apparent release of both Barre and Arale. I've left some suggestions to this end on the article's talk page; see you there. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 19:00, 24 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Hi Biggleswiki. I've left a response on the article's talk page, with direct quotes in support. The user is basically repeating the same arguments as before i.e. s/he seems to have trouble differentiating between firms being actively complicit in terror financing and firms whose services are abused by people for such purposes despite company safeguards. I've directed him to the scam industry section of the Western Union article [4] as an instructive example of the difference between the two. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 22:18, 25 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Hi Biggleswiki. So I just got word back from the editor I said on the article's discussion page that I would be contacting. He broadly agrees with what we've indicated. Here's what he wrote: "I think you stated it clearly with regard to WP:BURDEN. I agree with you the sources don't exist to support what he is saying. But I also don't see that conversation is going anywhere". I believe we have a consensus at this point. Let me know what you think. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 17:17, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Fibrecity Holdings

edit

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Fibrecity Holdings, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Fibrecity. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

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. CorenSearchBot (talk) 13:17, 13 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Why you received the above message

edit

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Fibrecity a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Fibrecity Holdings. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:07, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • Please note, the same applies to the redirect you created from H2O Networks to H20 Networks. In the latter case, however, I have reverted your edits, because it seems very obvious from the logo and domain name, among other things, that the "O" is correct and should not be a "zero". --R'n'B (call me Russ) 15:04, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Roger Kirby

Please note that Wikipedia has a rule specifically precluding putting honorifics such as "Professor" in the article title. The article must stay at its present title; there is no real reason why the word Professor "must" be in the title. If he needs to be disambiguated from another Roger Kirby, then our naming conventions permit Roger Kirby (professor), but not "Professor Roger Kirby". Thanks.

Deletion discussion about Aspire Drinks

Hello, Biggleswiki, and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!

I wanted to let you know that some editors are discussing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aspire Drinks whether the article Aspire Drinks should be in Wikipedia. I encourage you to comment there if you think the article should be kept in the encyclopedia.

The deletion discussion doesn't mean you did something wrong. In fact, other editors may have useful suggestions on how you can continue editing and improving Aspire Drinks, which I encourage you to do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.

Thanks again for your contributions! The Cavalry (Message me) 17:03, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Aspire Drinks

edit

The article Aspire Drinks has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. KC9TV 13:36, 6 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

File talk:FHemi Logo.png

edit
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File talk:FHemi Logo.png has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[6][7]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because images on Wikipedia need to be compatible with the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike or another free license, which allow anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{cc-by-sa-3.0}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. Note, if you did create this file, you may want to upload it to Wikimedia Commons, which will allow the image to be accessed by all Wikimedia Foundation projects (which include the various localized versions of Wikipedia)

If you did not create this media file, please understand that the vast majority of images found on the internet are not appropriate for Wikipedia. Most content on the internet is copyrighted and the creator of the image has exclusive rights to use it. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others - do not upload images that violate others' copyrights. In certain limited cases, we may be able to use an image under a claim of fair use - if you are certain that fair use would apply here, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list. If no fair use rationale applies, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. KC9TV 13:39, 6 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:FHemi Logo.png

edit
⚠
Thanks for uploading File:FHemi Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. KC9TV 13:41, 6 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:FHemi Logo.png

edit

Thanks for uploading File:FHemi Logo.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. KC9TV 13:42, 6 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
