Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, Woolworths Monitor, may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because the user name Woolworths Monitor maybe seen as a COI with Woolworths Limited. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. Bidgee (talk) 06:59, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi Bidgee, I'm sorry for any trouble that has been caused but I do think that my name is totally fine for use. I have used the name Woolworths Monitor because my aim is to refine pages on Wikipedia concerning Woolworths and other businesses owned by Woolworths Limited and to provide the latest news about Woolworths. I am simply making life easier for others.

Kind Regards, Woolworths Monitor

The problem is, the name implies that you are connected to Woolworths or have some sort of official standing with them. As a result, the name may be seen as misleading. I think part of the problem is the use of the term "Monitor." I would not have any objection with a username along the lines of Woolworths Fan; I think that would make it clear that while you like the company and are interested in its articles, you aren't part of the company. That username is available; would you be interested in changing? —C.Fred (talk) 07:28, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Further to C.Fred comment, please read WP:CORPNAME which states it's not ok. Bidgee (talk) 07:29, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it's in a gray area, subject to administrator's discretion. In my opinion, "Monitor" makes it too clearly tied to the company and suggests a promotional aim, while "Fan" suggests no formal affiliation. (See Wikipedia talk:Username policy#Company names as part of a username? for current discussion on the matter.) I would endorse "Woolworths Fan" as an acceptable name without promotional intent. —C.Fred (talk) 20:29, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Is Woolworths Community avaliable? Kind regards Woolworths Monitor

No. "Community" has its own problem, in that it suggests that more than one person is using the account. —C.Fred (talk) 22:25, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Are there any other words similar to monitor that I could use? Is informant ok?

As a reminder, here are the two username guidelines that are an issue:

Misleading usernames imply relevant, misleading things about the contributor. Misleading names include those that imply you are in a position of authority over Wikipedia, or those that impersonate other people.

Promotional usernames are used to promote a group, company, product or website on Wikipedia.

Bidgee's concern is that any use of the Woolworths marque in a username is promotional. I disagree with that, but I think that adding a term like "Monitor" or "Community" is misleading and implies more official standing that you have.

"Informant" carries its own issues, because of the denotation of whistle-blowing in connection to the term. I see that username as creating more problems than it will solve.

Accordingly, it might be easier to come up with a username that doesn't mention Woolworths directly. A veiled reference could work, such as a pun on one of their slogans, but to meet the two username guidelines listed above, the direct reference is problematic. —C.Fred (talk) 00:24, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Tricia-Penrose.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Tricia-Penrose.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

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.
