Welcome to Wikipedia! We could really use your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Eugene Levitsky) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Amarkov babble 01:46, 11 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of JKilts Films

edit
 

A tag has been placed on JKilts Films 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 company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Non-dropframe (talk) 21:40, 22 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

  You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at JKilts Films. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. Terrillja (talk) 21:41, 22 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Outcome

edit

Sorry, I deleted the article under the rationale "not yet notable".

Maybe in a few months, if you actually do make it big. But not until then. DS (talk) 22:15, 22 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Your changes to SpaghettiOs

edit

I'm a bit perplexed on the changes you made on SpaghettiOs. There were reliable sources about the creator, and you replaced them with some questionable ones, is there a reason for this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FinalRapture (talkcontribs) 02:51, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'm a friend of the inventor's son. I know for a fact that he was the true inventor. I also know for a fact that Donald is NOT the inventor. It's a publicity stunt his family seems to be pulling. My friend was very hurt to find out how this Donald Goeke (sp?) has been stealing credit from his late father. Wikipedia used to have Eberling listed as the inventor up until recently when it was changed to Goeke. It is information I know to be true. I have proof from Cambell's itself. If you don't mind, please restore the changes I've made.

I'd like do see this other administrator you've asked. Please read up on WP:SOURCES and Wikipedia:No_original_research. FinalRapture - 04:14, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add hoaxes to Wikipedia, such as you did in the article SpaghettiOs. Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method is to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please don't disrupt Wikipedia in an attempt to test our ability to detect and remove such material. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia policy to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thank you. FinalRapture - 03:12, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is the final warning that you will receive regarding your disruptive edits, such as this edit you made to SpaghettiOs. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing without further notice. Jusdafax 04:22, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

One further thought: I see you consider this to be a content dispute. Strongly suggest you refrain from any further reverting, which won't help you at this point, and take your issues to the SpaghettiOs Talk page. As you have been informed, it's a question of sourcing under the requirements of WP:RS. For all I know you are in the right... but in Wikipedia, you have to prove it with reliable sources.

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Kurt Eberling Sr.jpg. 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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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:Non-free content, 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 created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 10:55, 29 May 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:55, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
