editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cirrus VK-30, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Composite. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Replaceable fair use File:IndustryWeek magazine Cover - Winter 1999.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:IndustryWeek magazine Cover - Winter 1999.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006.

Orphaned non-free image File:IndustryWeek magazine Cover - Winter 1999.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:IndustryWeek magazine Cover - Winter 1999.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 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:24, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Google Earth
edit@Joey1niner: Hello! I'm BruzerFox. I reverted your edit to Google Earth due to a policy known as WP:GAMECRUFT, which forbids excessive detail about a game's mechanics, options... basically anything that would make the article look like it belongs on Wikia. Google Earth is not a "video game" per se, but many of the similar problems that plague video game articles on Wikipedia also crop up in that particular section. It's nice to know the little details, I know, but Wikipedia is for learning information that can be reliably sourced by its editors. If you have any questions, be sure to let me know.

"Designer"
editI removed that line on Cirrus VK-30 because consensus is that "Designer" should only be used when a single person was responsible, not multiple people or leaders of design groups. "Mulitple individuals" might be a small gray area, but by wording, if it's not one, singular person it's supposed to be left blank. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:20, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:10, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

March 2019
editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Woźniak, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

editBalance.
edit- When choosing images for a page, I choose images that span nationalities, eras etc to provide a balance, so that it isn't all American or Russian or British, which is a serious problem on many Wikipedia pages - a problem you are determined to make worse.
- A Nieuport does not fix that. The autogyro image is muddy, nearly unusable visually, and worse, has extremely serious copyright issues, and so outside of its own page cannot legally be used. Someone stole it from a website and it is not even on Wikimedia. If Wikimedia had a legal image, I would have added it because I scoured wikimedia and all of my usual open source sources for suitable images, for every likely candidate. I like the autogyro - maybe you can find a legit photo to upload to wikimedia of a C.4?
- You seem to have a real (and irrational) hatred of this image, but seriously, there is an extreme shortage of images from any country outside of the US, UK, France and Germany, so any opportunity to put something in from outside that group needs to be taken, and this was the best one available. There is no reason to discount it because it was taken later, as many of the images were also taken at some indeterminate later time after when they made their "first" - and unlike most museum photos it was taken of the exact same airplane as made the flight, as the airplane was immediately placed in a museum. That fact it is static is not even remotely relevant as almost all of the photos are of a static airplanes - it is however illustrating the actual airplane that accomplished the deed, which is its purpose, unlike the shot of the Fleet Air Arm Fairey III.F you first tried replacing it with before, and which got extra pointless when someone added the name of the ship. - NiD.29 (talk) 03:49, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Klapmeier's aren't the Wrights and deserve separate Wikipages
editDear editor,
As a journalist who once covered general aviation, please let me suggest splitting the "Klapmeier Brothers" page into a "Dale" page and "Alan" page.
Their falling out makes this article feel out of character.
https://www.inforum.com/news/minn-supreme-court-hears-arguments-in-ex-cirrus-aircraft-ceo-lawsuit
I'm confident once their pages are separate the market will sift and separate as appropriate. Expert Tim Kern of https://121five.com/ says he is willing to look everything over.
Thanks for hearing this. I've only ever anonymously fixed grammar on Wikipedia and do not know how to initiate something like this.
gracias, jeff Reporterdecker (talk) 05:35, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- I will respond in due time with a more educated and thoughtful answer on this. Thank you for the discussion. Good thing is there's no deadline or rush here, and it requires consensus on their Talk page first so I'm interested to see what other editors might say on it, too. So sit tight and I'll have a response for you fairly soon. Thanks. - Joey1niner (talk) 05:26, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hi. Any progress? The Oshkosh show is next week and I will see both brothers. They both know I proposed this split. thanks 24.208.21.45 (talk) 00:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- Wiki does not have deadlines like that for these sorts of things. I have seen certain proposals and questions sit on Talk pages for years before being resolved or sometimes even addressed at all. Additionally, the brothers themselves have absolutely no bearing on this decision, and as a matter of fact if they do personally influence it, that then goes against Wiki guidelines as a COI. Is your association with the brothers close or informal? With all that being said, I suppose I can bring this matter to the attention of a couple other editors sooner rather than later, but no promises that it will be that soon. Thanks again. - Joey1niner (talk) 03:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
