Here are some tasks you can do:

[edit] FOTOZP

Vikingstad, this FOTOZP service sounds very useful. Where can I find it? Is it on the web somewhere? –Hajor 00:07, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Yeah, it's very useful, but unfortunately just a PSOE library (FOTOZP, as in Zapatero). You'll find it here. --Vikingstad 00:12, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Oh, OK. I thought it was a repository of standard stock photos, not just PSOE. Thanks, anyway. –Hajor 00:18, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I don't think it's very appropriate that your picture of the demonstration in Barcelona shows the hammer-and-sickle banner of some fringe Communist group, and only a small number of people. If there were 1.5 million people in the P de Gracia, a more representative photo would be better. Adam 08:28, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I didn't include POV comments in José María Aznar. Can anybody suplant me or use the same IP in an other computer? 80.58.36.42 08:26, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hard to say who did it then, but someone added "He requested the dissolution of the Cortes and new elections in January 2004, and announced he would not be seeking the prime minister's office again, fortunately for all Spaniards." the part in italic. Anyway, I suggest that you register an account here at Wikipedia, then you avoid being confused (or getting the blame) for being someone else. --Vikingstad 09:20, Mar 19, 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your vote of support on Rfa -- it is much appreciated. –Hajor 15:03, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Floorball

Thanks for adding a picture to the floorball article! Kokiri 18:00, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Copyrights

I've raised an issue about the copyrights of your pages like Talk:Gunning Bedford, Jr. on the Wikipedia:Village Pump. I'm not sure that licence is acceptable, since it bars downstream commercial users, and is thus incompataible with the GFDL. Bear in mind, I'm not a lawyer, but you should check out the Village Pump for information before continuing. Yours, Meelar 03:35, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. I will change the photos to something else then GFDL then. The text however is public domain, so that should be compatible... --Vikingstad 03:38, Mar 28, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Letizia

Sorry, it was an accident; don't know how I did it. I guess Arwel just fixed it. -- Viajero 14:22, 23 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] British

Hi. The word British is quite confusing sometimes (the article on it is quite good). British does indeed mean someone from the island of Great Britain but it is also the adjective used to describe someone or something related the United Kingdom. In the context of nationality, British refers to the country and not the island. Dmn 23:28, 23 May 2004 (UTC)

Ignore that last comment, I wrote it before I read your second comment :-p Dmn 23:30, 23 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] EC President

Thanks for your remarks on the EC Presidents and for improving the template by adding the years. Unfortunately, I don't think the pipe link bug will be fixed. Currently, the pipe is used as a separator of parameters, so it is not available to use within the square brackets. -- Emsworth 22:58, Jun 24, 2004 (UTC)

Well, only time will tell, but it would be very useful, and not very hard I think, as this would only affect pipes within [[]] links. Cheers. --Vikingstad 23:20, Jun 24, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] The business and economics forum

Anouncing the introduction of The Business and Economics Forum. It is a "place" where those of us with an interest in the business and economics section of Wikipedia can "meet" and discuss issues. Please drop by: the more contributors, the greater its usefulness. If you know of other Wikipedians who might be interested, please send this to them.

[edit] License of a pic ?

Hi, is Image:Islm.png under GFDL ? Thanks in advance for your answer. Tipiac 15:41, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Washington Post

Boy, you're quick: I haven't had time to put anything in the Post talk page yet! I reverted because Wikipedia articles don't generally include writers' opinions. - DavidWBrooks 15:22, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

But I think that I may have been too hasty ... as I noted in the Talk page (I'm having database problems - I keep getting locked out of wikipedia), the article does need mention of the paper's liberal leanings. It was the tone of the comment that I reacted to, and the fact that it was labelled "opinion", as if it was your opinion. - DavidWBrooks 15:36, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] International airports category

I am going to CFD this, as it will get too big and unwieldly. Please stop adding airports to it. Burgundavia 09:28, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Washington Post

FYI: I started a "political leanings" section for this article, as per our discussion above. Needs work ... of course! - DavidWBrooks 14:59, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hola

Hola. He visto en tu Babel que hablas español. Me gustaría que miraras el artículo Operación Galaxia y la traducción que hice al español en es:Operación Galaxia, a ver si es correcta, porque creo que hay algún fallo. Gracias. 83.43.76.241 22:20, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Perdón, se me quitó el usuario y no firmé bien.Esta es mi firma de verdad. Reignerok 22:22, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Ingstad.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

[edit] Image:LetiziaOrtiz.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:LetiziaOrtiz.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Oden 07:24, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

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

Thank you for uploading Image:Lumumba.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. |EPO| 09:22, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:Robert schuman.jpg

An image that you uploaded, Image:Robert schuman.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. |EPO| 14:08, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Exact same for Image:Jacques Delors Janez Drnovsek.jpg. --|EPO| 14:12, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Bi logo.gif

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Bi logo.gif. 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 17:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:PsoeZapatero.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:PsoeZapatero.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy.

[edit] Copyright violation in Hurricane lamp

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Hurricane lamp, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Hurricane lamp is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Hurricane lamp, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
