Irish Republican Army

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Irish Republican Army appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. Domer48 (talk) 18:39, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Domer48 (talk) 19:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

WHAT??? A militarist organisation is officially sanctioned by either a nation, a government or by a popular vote. A Paramilitiarist organisation is not. The IRA, therefore, factually (opinion on this matter is irrelevant), a PARAMILITARIST organisation. Though my personal belief is that they are a TERRORIST organisation, the fact that they are a paramilitarist is not opinion. If I am banned because of this, I will change IP, change email and continue to compaign for an accurate free encyclopedia.Crieff (talk) 19:50, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia

Wikipedia is now DEAD. After repeatedly trying to contribute factually and minimise the propaganda here, it seems some IRA supporters have taken it upon themselves to turn Wikipedia into another propaganda machine. Real nice open-source encyclopedia we had here for a while, but whatever, there will be others soon. Better ones.

You're editing the wrong page. The Irish Republican Army is not the Provisional IRA. The latter already included the statement that the PIRA are a paramilitary organisation. Bastun^{BaStun not BaTsun} 00:08, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

No problem :-) Just applying one of the policies: "Assume good faith.". Incidentally, I notice noone has officially welcomed you yet - it can be a bit difficult to get your head around the various policies, rules and guidelines, so I'll include the standard welcome message below this, which includes links to some of the most important ones.

AfD Nomination: Computer Bites!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Computer Bites! meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Computer Bites!. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last seven days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. Cunard (talk) 18:50, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Computer Bites!

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Computer Bites!, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Rob Sinden (talk) 14:22, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

File permission problem with File:Horshambandstand.jpg

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

If you are the copyright holder for 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}} 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:27, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
