[edit] AIV Reporting

Thank you for making a report on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. Thanks.

[edit] 1990 or 1994

Hi Impi, I've changed it back to 1994 as I feel this is a much more significant endpoint than De Klerk's speech in 1990, but this is debatable. Perhaps the problem is that "start date" and "end date" are too simplistic, and the opening sentence needs ot be improved. See Talk:History of South Africa in the apartheid era. Zaian 18:34, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] CASA C-101 image

Hi Impi - long time no see :) I'm just wondering about this image that you uploaded some years ago now. You tagged it to say "The copyright holder allows anyone to use it for any purpose", but this is incompatible with EADS' policy as stated here. I'm hoping that you have some record that can show that their policy has changed between then and now, since I don't want to lose the picture! Cheers --Rlandmann 20:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:2sqn.gif

Hello, Impi. An automated process has found and removed a fair use image used in your userspace. The image (Image:2sqn.gif) was found at the following location: User:Impi/sandbox. This image was removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image was replaced with Image:Example.jpg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image to replace it with. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 00:24, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Separate Development

Hi Impi,

I see you're on a wikibreak, but if you need to procrastinate, check out the amazingly deceptive article on "Separate Development". Like WTF is with these people, eh? --Slashme 06:08, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cuito Cuanavale

Perhaps you can assist in what looks like borderline vandalism on the page. I think it is in reality a user--Timpis--who doesn't know or doesn't care to engage in discussion over the battle preferring to edit to put forth his own political agenda. Thanks for any assistance.

[edit] South African Army

Hi Impi. I was the editor that left that sandbox on the talk page. I'd like to expand the SAA page with more structural info, including if possible some more history of 7, 8, and 9 Divisions and the current structure, but have little info. Do you have a copy of Army Vision 2020 you could send me? Can't find it anywhere on the Net. Cheers and thanks, Buckshot06 20:24, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:16sqnbadge.png

Thanks for uploading Image:16sqnbadge.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}} 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 15:37, 5 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. OsamaKBOT 15:37, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
