Tanet
Welcome to Wikipedia!
editHello Tanet, welcome to Wikipedia!
Here are some tips:
- Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
- Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
- Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
- Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
- Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
- Use the Show preview button
- Provide an Edit summary
- Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
- Create a User page
- Be bold
- Ignore all rules
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alf 14:17, 27 August 2005 (UTC).
Timothy Leary
editI notice your picture had no 'tag', this is a copyright issue, but in this case, it's nice and easy as it's an album cover, I've edited Image:Leary.jpg with the right tag. Some of the above may be useful. I'll look at formatting TL in a mo' so the picture fits better. Alf 14:17, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
- There, it's done, have another look at Timothy Leary and tell me if it's not really how you wanted it. Alf 14:22, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

Unfortunately, machine translating into English is no good. There was still a lot of Italian, and the English was unreadable. --Adam (talk) 13:40, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Mbk_booster_spirit.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Mbk_booster_spirit.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 14:08, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Images
editPlease stop uploading images without acceptabel copyright information. Please familiarise yourself with Wikipedia:Image use policy before uploading more images. In general wikipedai can accept any image uploaded under a free license as long as the source and license are clearly stated. To use images that are copyrighted under a non-free license (eg. most images from other websites), you have to be able to claim fair use. Almost all of your image uploads have been marked to be deleted. Please ask me if you have any questions. --Martyman-(talk) 02:46, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging for Image:ASVarese1968.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:ASVarese1968.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Arezzo Wave article, but since this is the English Wikipedia, we cannot accept text in other languages. However, if this is an original article, perhaps you would like to translate it into English. You may also enjoy becoming a part of Wikipedia's effort to coordinate across different languages. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! Benji64 18:05, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
Your edits to Project MKULTRA
editI'm wondering if you could elaborate more on this edit. I don't recall connections to MKULTRA in any other these films. I removed them, but feel free to add them back with more information. Wyatt Riot 06:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Please do not remove warnings on your Talk page
editYou have removed several user warnings from your user or user talk page. These warnings are not put on your talk page to annoy you; they were placed here because other editors have noticed an issue with your behaviour that may require improvement. They are a method of communication and user talk pages stand as a record of communication with you. If you do not believe the warning was valid or have a question about improving your behaviour you can respond here or visit the help desk. If your talk page is becoming long, you can archive it in accordance with the guidelines laid out here How to archive a talk page. Thank you.
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Logo astore.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Logo astore.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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Associazione Sportiva Asiago Hockey.png
editThanks for uploading Image:Associazione Sportiva Asiago Hockey.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image 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 '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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
Unspecified source for Image:Associazione Sportiva Asiago Hockey.png
editThanks for uploading Image:Associazione Sportiva Asiago Hockey.png. 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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:53, 16 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Non-free use disputed for Image:Logo benetton.jpg

Spam in Ostinato (band)
editHello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ostinato (band), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ostinato (band) is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ostinato (band), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Logo aigle.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Logo aigle.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

- 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.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:As varese.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:As varese.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:48, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

We apologize for this, but all images must confirm to policy on Wikipedia.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks so much for your cooperation.

I moved Image:Marquee club.jpg to Wikimedia Commons
editThank you for uploading Image:Marquee club.jpg. I have moved the image to the Wikimedia Commons with a new name at commons:Image:Marquee Club August 2007.jpg so that the image can be used in the French Wikipedia, the German Wikipedia, and so on. I have also edited Marquee Club so that it uses the new name for the image. -- Eastmain (talk) 17:51, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Ecole Supérieure de Réalisation Audiovisuelle. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Call me Bubba (talk) 00:47, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
I see that you created this category and later blanked the page. A faster way to delete a category you've created yourself is to place {{db-author}} on the page. This tag attracts the attention of an administrator who can perform the deletion for you. Contact me if you have questions about this. Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 20:23, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
editHello Tanet! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 157 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:
- David Tukiçi - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 23:37, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
The article Euro Ice Hockey Challenge has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No evidence of notability. No sources given, and web source produced only the organization's own site, blog and forum posts, Wikipedia, pages of statistics, etc etc.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. JamesBWatson (talk) 15:18, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Daturah
editA tag has been placed on Daturah 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 band or musician, 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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. Eeekster (talk) 01:45, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer
editHello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:14, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Furthur Inside.jpeg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:Furthur Inside.jpeg. 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.

Please do not mark substantial additions of text as minor
editThank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Rhodes piano, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. –Henning Makholm (talk) 23:36, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
The article Ostinato (band) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- This article has been here for 4 years with nary a reliable source added in all that time. However, at this time I can not find any significant coverage of this band to satisfy WP:GNG, or even WP:BAND. Therefore I am prodding this article to give it some time to get some reliable sources added since it apparently "feel under the radar", so to speak.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}

Mario Lanza discography
editI agree that the page is a good idea given Mario Lanza's large body of work, but I wonder if you are aware of the common English-language meaning of "country music". The term in English means "cowboy music" or sometimes "southern US music" - think Hank Williams or Willie Nelson. It wouldn't ever be used to describe Lanza's usual genres.

Copyright problem: Manuscript London
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Manuscript London, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to contain material copied from https://web.archive.org/web/20130515170637/http://www.myetymology.com/encyclopedia/Manuscript_of_London.html, although the copyright status of that page is unclear, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author to release the text under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), leave a message explaining the details at Talk:Manuscript London and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". Make sure you quote the exact page name, Manuscript London, in your email. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted "under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), version 3.0", or that the material is released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Manuscript London with a link to where we can find that note.
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License and GNU Free Documentation License, and note that you have done so on Talk:Manuscript London. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.
It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Manuscript London saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved. Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing!
If you didn't get the text from that source, would you mind saying where you did get it from?

editHi, Kiwi. :) I've straightened out the confusion at Manuscript London but needed to let you know that content on Wikipedia projects is not public domain; it's actually copyrighted, and while we can use it very freely, we do have to provide "attribution" to comply with the license.
This is pretty easy to do when translating or copying content internally. You just need to link to the source article in your edit summary (not sure if you're familiar with those, since I don't see any in your last 500 edits) and generally put a note on the talk page of what you've done. While easy, this is important, since otherwise your use of somebody else's content is a violation of wmf:Terms of Use as well as an infringement on their copyright. You can read more about how this is done and why at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
By the way, I noticed above that somebody warned you not to remove "warnings" from your talk page. This is not a rule here and in fact the template they left for you telling you so was speedily deleted soon after it was given to you. The person who left you the note probably didn't realize it, but the community had already rejected that rule. You can clean your talk page as much as you want. Archival is preferred, but content you remove is visible in your history, so it's okay. You can see confirmation of this at WP:OWNTALK.
If you have any questions about this or about attributing translated material, please let me know. If you respond here, please add [[User:Moonriddengirl]] to your note to help make sure I see it. :) Thanks! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:02, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Grzegorz Adam Urbanowski. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:10, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
Copyright warning
editHello, Tanet.
I told you above how to attribute when you translate from other languages. You must do this - it's not optional. If you don't, you are in violation of the copyright of the people who wrote the original content.
Wikipedia is required to block people who repeatedly violate copyright after warning. I will provide again the attribution for Grzegorz Adam Urbanowski, but you must not continue doing this. It is necessary under our policies and our Terms of Use. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:10, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
- I'm sorry Moonriddengirl I couldn't find the template anymore. --Kiwi (talk) 17:14, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
- The template is Template:Translated page, but it's not the most important part. The most important part is the edit summary. Even if you don't remember the template (or don't want to use it), you can just put a note in the edit summary and on the talk page linking people to the original. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:26, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Roger Quemener, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Breton (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hello, Tanet, and thank you for your contributions!
Some text in an article that you worked on El Hadj Menouar, appears to be directly copied from another Wikipedia article, Khelifa Belkacem. Please take a minute to double-check that you've properly attributed the source text in your edit summary.
It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on El Hadj Menouar at any time. MadmanBot (talk) 23:02, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

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).

Non-free rationale for File:Cosenza1914.png
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:Cosenza1914.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 14:25, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion".

The article Hadj Bouchiba has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Ad Orientem (talk) 02:44, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to The Shining (film), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 14:06, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
- Please do not add or change content, as you did at Francisco Fedullo, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. GiantSnowman 18:41, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

- @GiantSnowman: the source is "Wallace, George M. (1948). Joseph Francis Sartori 1858-1946. Los Angeles, California: Ward Ritchie Press." have you read the book by any chance? and for Soriano I'm going to add it right now... you should wait a while.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Comunio is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comunio until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Eveno
editA tag has been placed on Eveno requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
- disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
- disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion nomination of Magnum Band
editIf 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.
A tag has been placed on Magnum Band 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 band or musician, but it does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Amccann421 (talk) 17:17, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Helpful contribution
editHi User:Tanet, could you make a contribution to Maiorana page please? That the name is Norman French in origin, this source Della Calabria illustrata says something like: the name changed from Marogana (or Marogano) to the more easily pronounceable Maiorana (or Maiorano), possibly influenced by folk etymology (page 326). On that page the book also states that the fleur-de-lis in the coat of arms of the family also indicates a Norman origin. I just don't do edits on that scale, because more than likely no one will edit the page for many months, leaving my mistakes (that become Wikipedia's mistakes) on show. You'd just have to change categories to Norman and "Maiorana is an Italian surname" to "Maiorana is a Norman French surname" Hope you can help, thanks.--Theo Mandela (talk) 17:30, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
It seemed undue to me. We never add a surname's origin to someone's article. We sometimes create pages about specific surnames if several people share it. See WP:Anthroponymy. Thank you.Zigzig20s (talk) 12:02, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Efail Isaf
editDo you have a source for your toponomy of Efail Isaf?
- It seems unlikely that efial would turn to efail.
- efial does not appear in the University of Wales dictionary (neither does gefial).
- There is a perfectly good word efail (lenition of gefail, forge or smithy) which would seem a more likely origin.
- isaf can also (and often does) mean "lower" rather than "lowest".----Ehrenkater (talk) 15:01, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Varese calcio.png
editThank you for uploading File:Varese calcio.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

An article you recently created, Furbesco, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Currently, the only source is not about the article's subject, and without that, it is totally unsourced. Additionally, the single external link is a bad link.(?)

Orphaned non-free image File:Mastinivaresestemma.png
editThanks for uploading File:Mastinivaresestemma.png. 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).

Query
editDear @Tanet, I was wondering if you, a notable and proficient user, might take a look at this dilemma for me. I wished to add section titles on the article Roberto Firmino, as is done on many other articles such as Mohamed Salah and Steven Gerrard ( I feel that the article is lacking such titles). However, a user called GiantSnowman did not like this idea or agree with me and subsequently reverted many of my edits, many times. Thus, I was wondering if you might provide your own opinion on this matter (the full conversation can be found here: Talk:Roberto Firmino#Opinion), and perhaps reply back to me with your thoughts, if you have the time?
Warm wishes,
Disambiguation link notification for July 3
