NPP edit

  Hi Jpbowen/Archive 7. Thank you for patrolling new pages. I'm curious to know why you passed Lero (software engineering) as suitable for inclusion. Patrolling not only prevents the wrong kind of pages staying online, but is also an opportunity to do some basic improvements and tag them for attention.There is currently a drive to enhance the quality of patrolling - you can help: please read the new tips and tricks at WP:NPP and if there's anything that is not clear, don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. You may even wish to make your own suggestions for NPP improvement. Happy editing! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:21, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Glyn Lewis edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to readthe 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 Glyn Lewis 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 person or group of people, 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 labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," 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. UtherSRG (talk) 15:13, 5 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Architecture edit

Hi Jonathan! Please don't reduce lead pics to thumbnail size. Everything else in that article has been kept to thumbnail, and for the most part selected so as to be clear at that size. However, the lead pic of Florence cathedral has been enlarged for visual clarity, for comparison between the external view and the plan, and in order to support a number of lines of explanatory text. Given the significance of this building, as defined by the text underneath it, it warrant the extra pixels. Amandajm (talk) 10:05, 26 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". 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 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.

Please note that previous versions of Dubai Museum were not copyright violations. Would it not have been better to role back to the last version without copyright problems? Could you restore that last such version into my area for re-installation rather than having to start from scratch again? Many thanks. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 12:08, 13 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
PS Are you sure that http://www.weknowdubai.com/70743/dubai-museum/ was not copied from the Wikipedia entry and what evidence do you have of this either way? Is there an easy way to check such things. I would be interested in information if so. — Jonathan Bowen(talk) 12:17, 13 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Museum edit

If you look at the page that it appears to be copied from, that is the more robust one -- with further specific info such as hours, contact info, etc. And the style in both is not the encyclopedic tone, but that used by advert-like sites. If you ask the deleting nom to userfy it for you, I'm sure he/she will be happy to do so, and you can restore a non-copyvio version. Or you can start from scratch and create a non-copyvio version. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 16:24, 13 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

I disagree apart from the opening time details, WeKnowDubai Dubai Museum page copies the Wikipedia page in encyclopaedic style, even with the same photograph from Wikimedia Commons. I see the Dubai Museum Wikipedia page has been restored so I guess someone else does too. If you look at the revision history of the Dubai Museum Wikipedia page, the information was built up over several days by Orionist in May 2010. A copyvio would normally be a single cut-and-paste with little evidence of original work as there is here. I would suggest that you should do more research on the revision history of a Wikipedia page before suggesting copyvio in future. I hope this helps in your contribution to Wikipedia. —Jonathan Bowen (talk) 11:31, 20 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Museum places edit

What is Museum places? And why is Covent Garden categorised as a Museum place?SilkTork ✔Tea time 16:31, 10 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Category:Museum places includes places related to museums (e.g., through their name or location). Covent Garden is the location of the London Transport Museum, as mentioned in the article. I hope this helps. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 16:39, 10 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
You know that there is already a category for locating museums in a particular area? For the Transport Museum, there is: Category:Museums in Westminster. Judging from thediscussion on this category, the category was kept because it would hold places that are museums, such as Museumsquartier, Metropolitan Zoological Park and Museum District,Museum District, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, etc, not that it would duplicate existing museum location categories.

Disambiguation link notification for October 25 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

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.
