[edit] License tagging for Image:Schlangenei.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Schlangenei.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Toby wong

The article Toby wong has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a person or group of persons but it does not indicate how or why that person or group is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. Kimchi.sg 14:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

And please stop recreating the article - it will just be deleted again, as notability can't be obtained in a few minutes. Please be aware that it is considered vandalism to prematurely remove speedy delete tags from an article. Fabricationary 14:19, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for experimenting with the page Tobi wong on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. 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. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Fabricationary 14:20, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to Tobi wong. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Fabricationary 14:22, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to Tobi wong, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Again, it is considered vandalism to remove speedy delete tags from page, as you have been previously warned. Please stop. Fabricationary 14:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to Tobi wong, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Phædriel ♥ tell me - 15:30, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page blanking

I notice you have blanked the Tobi Wong article twice in the last few minutes. Is this intentional? I believe the articl is starting to get into shape, and its a pity if you are feeling put upon by the process. Please feel free to drop a comment on my talk page if you'd like to talk about this.

[edit] Samuel M. Rubin

Updated DYK query On 7 August 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Samuel M. Rubin, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Well done. Nice little article. -- Samir धर्म 08:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:115-victormayer_163x140.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:115-victormayer_163x140.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

I noted that you created a new article at Victor Mayer (jeweller), and I also noted that we already had an article on the subject at Victor Mayer. Please try to be more careful in the future. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 16:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cartier

Cartier(line) was a very poor title. I suggest that you pick up anything worthwhile from your version and add it to Cartier SA. -- RHaworth 17:48, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:FabergeB.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:FabergeB.gif. 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Comments in 12 Step Fellowships article

I cleaned up some of the comments in the 12 Step Fellowships talk page. It's kind of confusing if you start a new heading for comments regarding a subject that allready has a heading. Most of the time people will put a ':' in front of their comments, that indents them so the discussion is easy to read. Also, be sure to sign your comments with the four tildes. -- 132.194.82.177 04:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Gorbaciov-2.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gorbaciov-2.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 22:18, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Brian Gilbertson

A tag has been placed on Brian Gilbertson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD A7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 04:52, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Faberge1.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Faberge1.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:25, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Herbert Selpin

A tag has been placed on Herbert Selpin requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. SamMichaels (talk) 03:27, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Tobi Wong

A tag has been placed on Tobi Wong requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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.

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 01:37, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
