[edit] Steven Thompson (Sydney, New South Wales)

A tag has been placed on Steven Thompson (Sydney, New South Wales), 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 article 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. -- Shadowlynk (Talk) 06:13, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Steven Thompson (Sydney, New South Wales), to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Specifically, do not create placeholder articles. Wait until you have the evidence of notability gathered, draft the text(ideally in the text editor of your choice), and then create the Wikipedia article. —C.Fred (talk) 22:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Eva.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Eva.jpg. 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.

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:Non-free content, 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 00:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kkmurray (talk) 00:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Germany Invitation

Hello, Steven J Thompson! I'd like to call your attention to the WikiProject Germany and the German-speaking Wikipedians' notice board. I hope their links, sub-projects and discussions are interesting and even helpful to you. If not, I hope that new ones will be.
