Vargas Gang edit

Your edits to the vargas gang are perplexing. The article does not need wikifying. It uses wikisyntax throughout to make a range of relevant links. So I have removed the wikify tag. It does want references, but as you are the principal author (so it seems) you are in the best position to add references. Please improve the article, especially giving sources for your edits. But please don't add the "wikify" tag back, because it is not the right tag. Thanks Zeimusu | Talk page 15:38, 27 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

O.G. Mack edit

As per the last comment on your talk page, I'm not sure why you have added the wkfy tag back to this article. It is formatted correctly dispite its small size. Perhaps another edit template would better convey the changes you wish to see? .:.Jareth.:. babelfish 03:12, 15 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

RE: Global city edit

Greetings! I hope you're well. Thanks for 'pruning' the recent extra chat on the 'global city' talk page: I'm not sure deleting it was proper, but I'm not arguing. :) While recent edits made by the 'anon' were definitely problematic, I responded in the hope of ameliorating that user's ... "dizziness" and in the quest for all-round enlightenment. I've also been involved in a long-standing dispute regarding the article (from, IMHO, a similarly "dizzy" user), so I appreciate other efforts at balance. Difficult, I know. :) Thanks again!

Kumusta, taga-Zamboanga kayo? No hablo chavacano pero sí que hablo español. In any case, the 2000 census records are fine. I used them for my blog post back in July 2004 at http://salitablog.blogspot.com/2004/07/news-about-chabacano-chavacano.html. --Chris S. 19:56, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

I have reverted a recent edit you made to the article Beck (manga). You did not provide an edit summary, and I could not determine whether the edit was vandalism or a constructive contribution. In the future, please use edit summaries. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Melody-album-cover.jpg) edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Melody-album-cover.jpg. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:The Last Don.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:The Last Don.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) 11:31, 21 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Imaginative Illusions Sdn. Bhd. edit

 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Imaginative Illusions Sdn. Bhd., suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Imaginative Illusions Sdn. Bhd.. —BradV 03:23, 5 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Image copyright problem with Image:Pastel manga.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Pastel manga.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Fair use rationale for File:Earthian manga.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Earthian manga.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vargas Gang (2nd nomination) 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.

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Mhiji 21:00, 12 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
