Thanks for the Wah Mee photos, but we don't have the legal right to use them in Wikipedia as they are copyrighted. Unless you have express consent from the copyright holders? Please let me know on my talk page. Thanks! --Lukobe 18:18, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Got your message -- two of the photos from the Wah Mee article are from the police department (public domain?), but one is from a private photographer. I know where the site is in the International District, so I can just head over there and take a photo of the alleyway myself :D
Thanks! No, sorry, police department photos aren't public domain. They'll have to be removed. And can you go ahead and take a photo of the alley yourself? Yeah--the government-works-as-public-domain thing only works for the federal, not state or local governments. --Lukobe 05:08, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Goleta postal massacre

Please don't remove template messages such as Cleanup until the problems are resolved. Thanks! --hello, i'm a member | talk to me! 05:03, 29 April 2006 (UTC)


A tag has been placed on Maria Lea Pedini-Angelini, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] Please do not remove deletion tags from your own work

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. --Butseriouslyfolks 10:11, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I am a history and political buff currently researching European Microstates. I will be adding to this article in the near future. First off, this article is important because Pedini-Angelini was the first female head of San Marino (as well as one of the first women head of state in the world!) Secondly, there are dozens of wikipedia articles about Captains Regents of San Marino with much less information than my article. Thirdly, I have created at least thirty wikipedia articles, so give me the benifit of the doubt. I don't why my article has been singled out.

  • Hi, please don't feel singled out. I happened upon the article while reviewing new pages for problems. There are a couple of issues here. First, there are no citations in the article, so, in its present form, it is not verifiable. Second, when I tagged it, it was too limited to be a publicly available article at WP. Keep in mind that while many WP users are also editors, the vast majority of people use it solely as a reference work, and its value is deprecated if it has a high proportion of uncited, abbreviated articles. You've already started expanding the article, so it probably will not be speedily deleted. If I were you, I would add a couple of references (preferably inline) at this point, and that will almost certainly make it a keeper. Also, in the future, you might want to develop articles in your sandbox before incorporating them into the main space of WP. Happy editing! --Butseriouslyfolks 18:03, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 6 May 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.
