October 2008 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Ethiopia, did not appear to be constructive and has been removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of "Lagaharre" edit

 

A page you created, Lagaharre, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is a test page. Use the sandbox for testing.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 06:13, 18 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Your edits adding images edit

They aren't working, you need to look at a page when you finish and if it hasn't worked, fix it or revert. Thanks. Doug Weller (talk) 12:09, 18 October 2008 (UTC)Reply


Speedy deletion of Yusuf ahmed edit

 

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

January 2009 edit

  Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Yusuf ahmed, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. RandomHumanoid() 21:43, 1 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, such as Talk:Yusuf ahmed, you will be blocked from editing. RandomHumanoid() 21:45, 1 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Oromo people. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Please do not change attributed information to something other than what the source actually says. Thanks.

February 2009 edit

  Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Addis Ababa, even if your ultimate intention is to fix them. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 23:01, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply


File copyright problem with File:Ayman2014.jpg edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Ayman2014.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. J Milburn (talk) 19:58, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

June 2009 edit

  1.  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edit(s) to Oromo people, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 23:16, 26 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  2.   Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Oromo people. 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. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 21:59, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  3.   Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Harari Region. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 19:33, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

July 2009 edit

Hello, you added an infobox to Dire Dawa that was, evidently, copied and pasted from the Addis Ababa article. Next time, please make sure to update the infobox. I encourage you, again, to use the preview button before you save. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 01:44, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Oromo.png edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Oromo.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, 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.

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 22:50, 5 July 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 22:50, 5 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

You might have made the collage of images, but you do not own all the individual images therein. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 00:39, 7 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

STOP! edit

  1. Yusufisfine, I am going to block you if you do not start replying to the concerns about your edits and uploads expressed on this page, and cease uploading until you have demonstrated that you understand our policies and guidelines, particularly concerning copyright. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 14:17, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
  2.   This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
    The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did to Oromo people, you will be blocked from editing. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 00:34, 7 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Blocked edit

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for continued disruptive edits of Oromo people, and (evidently) ignoring warnings about copyrighted images. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

Taliban edit

Please be aware that you essentially deleted this entire page. Please learn how to edit in Wikipedia before carrying out any more edits.--Hontogaichiban (talk) 23:12, 8 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yusufisfine, if you carry on in this manner you are going to find yourself subject to another block. I don't think you are intending to be disruptive, but unfortunately that has been the effect of your edits. I am also warning you about making personal attacks against other editors (as you did here). Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 23:54, 8 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

One last chance edit

Yusufisfine, I am giving you one last chance here. You cannot upload images unless the source explicitly says the image is in the public domain. If you do not agree to this I see no option but to block you indefinitely. Dougweller (talk) 08:06, 9 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
