[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Hujia.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Hujia.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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 08:53, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] February 2008 (http://spam.shanghaiist.com)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. MER-C 09:03, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Help Request

{{helpme}} Can someone look through my contributions and tell me why they have all been deleted please? They were all very appropriate links that I added and someone's deleted it thinking they were spam. And they are not! Singaporeano (talk) 20:51, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

I was wondering about this as well and I left some notes, hoping to get an answer soon. It will probably take a while because the people who can answer may not be online.
Please note that use of the ~~~~ at the end of your entries will cause the system to insert your name and the date and time. This makes it much easier to follow a conversation. Best wishes, Wanderer57 (talk) 18:35, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Hey there! I'm removing the {{helpme}} template from your page as it appears Wanderer57 has already helped you. If you need anything else, let me know! --omtay38 19:43, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Hello Singaporeano. I can't speak for the users who removed the links, but I would have removed them as well as not suitable under our style guideline on external links. The site you have been posting in numerous articles is a blog and forum. As such it falls under multiple sections of the "links to be avoided" section of the guideline I cited, including entries 2, 6, 9, 11 and 14. Moreover, many of the pages you are adding the links to are biographies of living people, and such pages have much more rigorous standards for external links—they must be of the highest quality and in full compliance with Wikipedia official policies and external links guidelines. Furthermore, since the site is not a reliable source, the links added to biographies of living persons must not contain controversial or negative content, which a number did, such as the user submitted comments on one of the Paris Hilton links.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi there again! I have again removed the {{helpme}} tag from your page. Unless you have any further questions to ask, please do not re-ad this template. If you do have further questions, please add {{helpme}} below this discussion and state your new question. Happy editing! --omtay38 00:55, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
