  Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Dale 20:44, 4 September 2009 (UTC)   Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, even if you intend to fix them later. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Dale 21:27, 4 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to Saw VI. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 12:30, 24 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Watership Down remake

edit

Do you have any sources or references for this section (which I've moved to the talk page)? Also, is there a source for that rabbit image? Bob talk 23:23, 22 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Where are you getting that information from? Even the company's website doesn't mention it. Bob talk 17:32, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Watership_Down_CGI_test_image.JPG

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Watership_Down_CGI_test_image.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, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:05, 23 July 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 03:05, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Warning

edit

  Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Watership Down (film). Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Bob talk 21:33, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits.
The next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did to Watership Down (film), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Bob talk 15:20, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Watership Down-Animal Logic CGI test image.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 12:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 12:11, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for File:Legendoftheguardians.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Legendoftheguardians.jpg. 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. 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 you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 17:43, 29 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Rio-poster.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Rio-poster.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 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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 05:25, 4 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Problems with upload of File:Horrid-Henry-Poster-450x337.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Horrid-Henry-Poster-450x337.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Watership Down

More original research, I'm afraid, which is unacceptable - a citation is needed (either a websource, press release, newspaper article, bulletin, etc). Just stating "insiders note" isn't verifiable. "Insiders" can claim anything. Bob talk 13:08, 5 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi. When you recently edited Rise of the Guardians, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Action-adventure film (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.
