Leadwerks Script
editA proposed deletion template has been added to the article Leadwerks Script, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Fair use rationale for Image:Leadwerkslogo.png
editThanks for uploading Image:Leadwerkslogo.png. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.
Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 20:06, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Leadwerksdemoscene.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Leadwerksdemoscene.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 20:24, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of List of Leadwerks Features
editA tag has been placed on List of Leadwerks Features requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. 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.
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 include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." 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, 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. BigDunc (talk) 20:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Image tagging
editI'm afraid you may be tagging images incorrectly. For example, at Image:Leadwerksdemoscene.jpg, you have applied the tag {{PD-self}}. This tag can only be used if you own the copyright to the image. Is that the case? Did you create the image? Pagrashtak 21:09, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- Can you please answer my question? If this is not made clear, your images may be deleted. Pagrashtak 14:24, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
I took this screenshot myself, so I am the author.
- No—taking a screenshot does not give you the copyright. If Leadwerks owns the copyright to that image, you need to say so on the image page and apply the {{Non-free software screenshot}} tag. Please sign posts on talk pages by adding ~~~~ at the end. This will add your user name and a time stamp. Pagrashtak 19:50, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Possibly unfree Image:Ssaoleadwerks.jpg
editAn image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Ssaoleadwerks.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Pagrashtak 19:49, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Replying to both of your proposed deletion of the images, I helped with creation of some aspects of the engine, and recieved permission to use these images. I don't see what is any different between these and say an image from Crysis or Half-Life 2...Tylerp9p (talk) 13:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- I asked you to fix the problem on the images on 5 May. I gave you nine days before I listed the images on Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images, the page for discussions about disputed source or licenses. I didn't propose deletion, that would be Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. If I had done that, the images would already be gone. I'm cutting you a lot of slack here, and I'd appreciate it if you'd stop treating me like your enemy. I find it funny that you're accusing me of "major bias", when you are the one with a clear conflict of interest. Pagrashtak 15:40, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:BronzePalm.PNG)
editThanks for uploading Image:BronzePalm.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

Wikiproject Electronics collaboration
editHi, I am writing to you because you have listed yourself as a member of the Electronics WikiProject. Sadly, this project is pretty dead, but I propose to resuscitate it with a collaboration. The idea is to have a concerted effort on improving one article per month, hopefully to GA or FA status and nominate the very best of them for the front page. I have prepared a page to control this process at Wikipedia:WikiProject Electronics/Collaboration (actually, I mostly shamelessly stole it from Wikipedia:WikiProject Mammals where a collaboration of this sort was succesfully run). There you can make nominations for articles for collaboration or comment on the nominations of others.
If you want to take part you might like to place this template {{WikiProject Electronics Collaboration}}
on your userpage which will give you a link to the current collaboration. If you are no longer interested in Wikiproject Electronics, please remove yourself from the members list, which is now at Wikipedia:WikiProject Electronics/Members
Thanks for listening, SpinningSpark 17:45, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
Leadwerks Software
editThere is a tag on Leadwerks Software about a concern that the company may not meet Wikipedia's notability guideline for companies. A company is usually presumed to be notable if it is the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Currently, the article makes no mention of any secondary sources. If you are aware of any, please add them to the article. Thanks, Pagrashtak 20:36, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads up, I will work on some sources. Tylerp9p (talk) 13:00, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
- No problem. Regarding the links you added, this freebase article says "The original description for this topic was automatically generated from the Wikipedia article "Leadwerks Software" at the bottom—we can't use that as a reference for obvious reasons. The CNet page says "Provided by: Leadwerks"—I think this would still count as a primary source, since it's coming from the company itself. Pagrashtak 14:58, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, didn't catch that on Freebase, and I see what you mean on CNET. I am kind of curious where I am expected to find third party sources about information on a privately owned corporation? It isn't publicly traded, and the only highly notable source is the company itself, the owner, or The Game Creators.Tylerp9p (talk) 13:07, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
- That may be an indication that the company is not notable and thus not suitable for Wikipedia. According to Wikipedia:Verifiability, "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." Not every company has the coverage needed to construct an article, unfortunately. Pagrashtak 13:54, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
- That makes sense, but in my honest opinion, that makes it like a popularity contest. For example, the fact that people know the name Crytek makes it more verified and liable to be on Wikipedia, where as a company like Leadwerks is not just because it is not a popular name. Considering Wikipedia is an e-Encyclopedia, if it exists, it should be covered. But either way, I have to follow the guidelines/rules.Tylerp9p (talk) 13:37, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- Actually, we make a clear distinction between popularity and notability. I have seen several editors attempt to show notability through the number of forum posts about a subject, but such an article should still be deleted if there are no reliable secondary sources covering it. If a subject is truly notable, then surely secondary sources are covering it. If not, then is it truly notable? Pagrashtak 16:56, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

2019 US Banknote Contest
editUS Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |
