Talk of 2005

Lyrics sites

This used to be the site of discussion regarding the legality of lyrics sites. I have since realized that quoting song lyrics for education/research purposes is legal if...

1. The lyrics are hosted in the United States. (It may be legal in other countries too - I just haven't looked into it)
2. Those who host it make no profit off the lyrics and since it is impossible to monitor hosting costs and profit, it would only be reasonable for the host to do the service at monitary loss.
3. Disclaimers are posted wherever lyrics appear and legal terms of service are publicly visible.

I'm building a new lyrics site and these are the terms I will be adhering to. If anyone thinks there is a flaw, please tell me here so I can correct my mistake before it's too late. --Anthony5429 04:53, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

The new site is open and can be found at http://e-lyrics.org. The legal information about E-Lyrics is available at http://e-lyrics.org/legal.php. --Anthony5429 23:48, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:DDR3 SDRAM.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:DDR3 SDRAM.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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 15:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Just wondering

Do you go to PL Dunbar High School?QuizQuick 02:35, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Userbox/es

Please do not restore the redirect. Cross-space redirects are frowned upon per WP:ASR, and this particular one is rather unpopular. The search engine should help you find the intended target page if you set your search preferences to include the Wikipedia: namespace. Thank you. --Kusma (討論) 14:39, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

New userboxes

I have deleted a userbox template you recently created, as userboxes should no longer be created in templatespace per the terms of the German userbox solution. Here is the userbox code so that you can recreate the userbox in your userspace ("userfying") if you wish.

RFA

Yes, you're allowed to change them, but it'd be good to add a note saying you have done so. --Chacor 07:17, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

To withdraw just: 1. remove reference to it from the main page (WP:RFA) 2. put {{subst:rfaf}} on top of your specific RFA page. And I guess leave something like "withdrawing" in your edit summaries. It's really a good idea to do, because some people tend to get nasty to people without much experience. Cheers. --Konstable 08:15, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Evidence against macroevolution

Hi Anthony. I should hasten to say that I'm not a creationist but an agnostic whose beliefs range (depending on my mood) from weak atheism to deism to theistic evolution. I am however, flattered that you thought from my edits that I was a creationist which presumably indicates that I have been abiding by the Wikipedia policies of neutral point of view and the recommendation to try to "write for the enemy" much better than I thought. That said, a few comments about your draft (which others seem to have already started commenting on). First, the article reads much closer to an essay trying to make an argument than as an Encyclopedia article (I have slightly similar issues with Evidence for evolution article but the problem there seems to be much less severe). Second, it isn't clear from the article what definition of "macroevolution" you are using - since this term has many different meanings to different people(some creationists define it is as speciation or above whereas others define it differently) it should be made clear if for example you mean macroevolution as defined in the relevant Wikipedia article or somewhere else. Third, you are going to be very careful about Wikipedia's rule against original research which is particularly relevant because it disallows new synthesies of exisiting notions- this will be particularly relevant since you want to use "secular" sources rather than creationist/intelligent design sources. Fourth, there is a concern about WP:NPOV in general as well as the sections of NPOV on undue weight and pseudoscience which I suggest you read carefully. These will be a particular concern since there is a prevailing consensus among biologists and the associated sciences that macroevolution (by almost any reasonable defintion) occurs and has occured. I'll see if I can do anything to help out. --JoshuaZ 14:01, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to take a while to get back to you. The last few days have been hectic. First, in regard to your question about citing Wikipedia in Wikipedia- basically one cannot. If however, the claim in the other article is sufficiently well sourced you can simply link to that article. So for example if you have an article on X that says "X is an example of a Y"(and this claim is sourced) and you want to mention this in article Z all you need to do in Z is write "X, an example of Y". It is sometimes useful to also bring over the citation for the claim in to the other article. If you have a more specific example let me know and I'll take a look. Now as to your other comment- if you have found anything that you think is "secular" evidence against macroevolution I would be very interested in seeing it but to be honest it most likely doesn't exist. Evolution as a whole has so many detractors for essentially religious reasons that if there were any really serious flaws they would most likely have come to light by now. --JoshuaZ 03:53, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

The Rule

Hello, I have nominated The Rule for speedy deletion, because it does not provide any assertion of notability. If you believe the band satisfies WP:MUSIC, then please add the tag {{hangon}} to the article, and provide Reliable sources. Leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Cheers. --Vectro 18:34, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for notifying me of your posting of the deletion tag. I put this article up about a year ago and had it deleted. The reason was because the band had not yet released an album. Now that they have and are touring with Cyndi Lauper, I assumed they would be WP-worthy. Am I wrong? --Anthony5429 18:38, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

As far as albums go, the actual requirement is that they have "released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels", or else one of their albums is notable for its awards or sales. As far as the tours go, the national tour can yield notability, but it must be "significant" as "reported in notable and verifiable sources", where "significant" usually means "booking agent" or "national or regional headlining". If you have citations to show either the albums or the tour meet these criteria, please add them to the article. Cheers. --Vectro 20:06, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply. I added a reference for the information as per your suggestion. --Anthony5429 20:15, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

OK, looks good to me. Cheers. --Vectro 00:33, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Copying article context is not the right way to fix names; you should use move instead because otherwise all the edit history is lost. If you still think the article should be under Dwarf rabbit, you'll need to get an admin to delete the existing one and then do a move on Dwarf rabbits. --Jamoche

Your gallery

Galleries of images are cool, but you're not allowed to use fair-use images in them; fair use images must be in their proper article. --Sonic3KMaster^(talk) 22:10, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Aww. That's too bad. Thanks for notifying me though. --Anthony5429 06:00, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

You can have the gallery, but the images that have the image at right (copyright logo) on its description page has to be in an article, so the GDFL and Public domain pictures you had are fine. Cool that you have the Rubik's Cube userbox on your user page, I made that box :P --Sonic3KMaster^(talk) 07:53, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:IanThorpe.png

Thanks for uploading Image:IanThorpe.png. 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. 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 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. --Angr 08:15, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Alright. I see the source image has been deleted. I'll look for a free image. --Anthony5429 18:54, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:IanThorpe.png listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:IanThorpe.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in its not being deleted. Thank you. -—Kimchi.sg 09:00, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

PNG vs. JPEG

I noticed that you created a template for suggesting that images be replaced with a PNG equivalent, an excellent idea as far as I'm concerned.

However, you have used it to suggest that photographic (or photolike, e.g. images that contain gradients with smooth transitions) images be replaced with PNG equivalents. Such replacement would result in drastically increased filesize with negligible or no gain in quality at all. Compare:

[1] [2] (note that the PNG version is slated for deletion, so it may or may not be around when you get to checking it out.)

The PNG version of this photographic image is four times larger, yet has no improvements in quality (with the exception of being cropped)! This holds true for any image converted from a lossy format (such as JPEG) to a lossless one (as PNG is), and while photographs both created and displayed in lossless formats such as PNG would undoubtedly be devoid of compression artifacts, they would also be way, way too large.

I ask that you please stop tagging photographic images with the ShouldBePNG tag, and use it exclusively for images which contain primarily pixel and line-art, as well as text. --FrostyBytes 22:32, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree with most of your comment on my discussion page. However, when I made the template, I was also considering the fact that a PNG file can be edited with no loss of quality and does not require a patent license to use (as GIF does - does JPEG??). Also, PNG has the advantage over JPEG and BMP of optional transparency and PNG is better than BMP because it is compressed (losslessly of course). I will, for now, follow your suggestion about using Template:ShouldBePNG, but would you please post your concerns on the Template talk:ShouldBePNG page so others can discuss them as well? Thanks! --Anthony5429 01:07, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Ah yes, conversion from other lossless formats to PNG is generally (if not without exception, I'm not 100% sure) a good idea. Wasn't thinking about that for some reason. And yes, I've added a recounting of our discussion so far to the talk page in question. --FrostyBytes 01:23, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:Patrick Heusinger.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Patrick Heusinger.png. 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.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:E-lyrics logo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:E-lyrics logo.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Oden 10:53, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair use image in user namespace

Hello! You have used a fair use image in your user namespace (Image:e-lyrics logo.png and Image:e-lyrics.png). Criterion 9 of the Wikipedia:Fair use criteria states that "Fair use images may be used only in the article namespace. Used outside article space, they are not covered under the fair use doctrine." I have removed it on these grounds. Sincerely, --Oden 10:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry. I would actually like to have both deleted if possible. How would I go about doing that? Is there a tag for images which are not linked to and which the author would like deleted? --Anthony5429 14:32, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Image problems

Hello!

After noticing that one of the images you uploaded appeared to be a copyright infringement (Image:Mizan Zainal Abidin.png) I have reviewed your contributions and found several possibly copyrighted images which you have uploaded as GFDL. In one instance you wrote: "I licensed this image as GFDL as per the context of the page I found it on." (here). In order to avoid copyright problems it is important to know the copyright status of every image used on Wikipedia. You can view your upload log here.

Sincerely, --Oden 12:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the mess. I will take note of this. --Anthony5429 14:33, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I hope you do not become discouraged by the problems related to images and copyright, this is a fairly common occurrence for new and sometimes even experienced editors, given the complexity of the rules. Your contributions to the text of any article is always appreciated, as well as any images you have taken yourself or which are available under a free license. If you have any questions feel free to leave a message on my talk page. --Oden 14:36, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm not discouraged. Thanks for your help! --Anthony5429 14:38, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Just to make sure: any other images which you have uploaded and which I have not mentioned are probably acceptable (make sure you have proper source attribution and a fair use rationale on any fair use image, though). Sincerely, --Oden 14:43, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

The Rule article on German Wikipedia

Dear Anthony, I am SysOp from the German language Wikipedia and I am sorry that your article was deleted on our project, well, we have criteria which are a little different from those in the English language version. Thats a pity for some toppics and with that some users but it is the way it is. However, I read what the IP wrote on your de-discussion page and I want you to know that he or she was not writing what most users in the de-project think about not native speaking people. So in the name of (I think the mayority) of de-users I have to apologize for such a behavior. And as you can see, my english is also not perfect. Best regards, --Dr. Shaggeman 17:34, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Anthony, I am not sure wether you have my de-talk-page on your watchlist, so i respond here. For an article about The Rule in de-wp it would be good to have maybe some prices they won or some chart position in the article or anything which is special in an NPOV way. de-, at-, ch-charts would be nice but uk- or us-charts should be enough. The problem is that obviously people in Germany do not know the band (and actually The Rule is a shitty name for searching in google). And also I think after somebody tried to fix your translation of the en-article the content was almost completely wrong (as compared with the en-article). With the translation I can help you, but with the rest of the job I can't. So, this was todays last action, /me needs some sleep, it is gettin late, --Dr. Shaggeman 00:42, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. I am starting a recreation of the artikel at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Anthony5429/The_Rule. If you feel inclined to help. I am trying to translate it from English to German. Thanks! --Anthony5429 23:28, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

I will take a look tomorrow. Surely I can help (at least with the translation and maybe with some formating stuff). I was taking a look around on some German webpages but unfortunately I found nothing about the band, so (I think) it will be difficult to prove the relevance for de-wp. But sometime being a sysop helps, or maybe wait a little till they are know here also ;-) -- ShaggeDoc talk 00:11, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

PNG versus JPEG

Hi. I noticed that you've converted a few images including Image:04 Jan 2003 (12).jpg and Image:04 Jan 2003 (11).jpg to the PNG format instead of the JPEG format. These images have already lost resolution by being in the JPEG format. Putting them into the PNG format doesn't improve the quality; all it does is increase the file size. Could you please explain on my talk page why you have done this? --Remember the dot 05:49, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Lansdowne Elementary School

Hey. I'm putting up this article you created for deletion due to the fact that it makes no attempt to establish notability. If you disagree, you can remove the tag so long as you expand this article. --Wizardman 01:35, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, there's no firm policy in place because schools are such a heated issue. Still, is there a big event that happened in the school's history? Is it recognized for a great finish at a national academics event? The addition of things like that would help it show notability. Right now all it says is that it's a school in Kentucky, so any additions can only help the article. --Wizardman 02:52, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks. I will try to improve the article if I get the time. --Anthony5429 02:55, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Reflist edits

I can see what the comments on {{reflist}} are about, but some of the edits you have made citing that are completely pointless; for example [3]. I also cannot see much point to converting the hard-code to the template, like this. Whilst use of the template may be encouraged, that doesn't mean the hard-code has to be changed and if you do make those edits it would be much better to use an more appropriate edit summary; that has nothing to do with the options listed after all... --Nilfanion (talk) 08:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Template refstart

I strongly disagree with the proposed merge. I had a look at the Sourcesstart template you mention. It's far too difficult for new editors to deal with. Refstart is a simple, basic guide to get people going. It works very well to do that, and is on quite a number of user pages. The reason it's not linked from user pages is because its usage is with subst: so there's no further pull on the servers. It's still being field-tested and developed, which is why I haven't given it wider publicity as yet. --Tyrenius 00:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Please see my response on your talk page. --Anthony5429 00:40, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Cheers. I actually think the guidelines need clarifying anyway. Everything in one section under the heading of "Notes and references" is fine, but it doesn't give clear examples when there is one section for "Footnotes" and another for "References". Are you doing any work in this area at all? --Tyrenius 00:47, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Please see Template talk:Reflist#Instances of ref-small and its current implementation on Template:Refend. --Anthony5429 00:51, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Newton (musician)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Newton (musician), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. --Petri Krohn 01:41, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Sounds fair. Thanks. --Anthony5429 21:17, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

PNG → SVG

Hi. It's not so hard to create SVGs from PNGs, but to get a good quality result, ah: there's the rub. PNGs are "scalar" graphics — i.e. they're formed from individual pixels at a certain resolution — while SVGs are "vector" graphics, defined in terms of mathematical lines and curves so that the image will look smooth at any resolution. Essentially PNGs are approximations of an image, and and to convert back to a more precisely defined image involves guesswork as to what was originally intended.

The process is called bitmap tracing, and it's fairly well automated, but it makes guesses about lines (exactly where the lines should be, whether they're straight or curved, etc.) that aren't always quite right. Often you have to do a significant amount of manual clean-up to get it perfect.

The sequence of actions is this. Import a bitmap into your SVG document (File>Import). Select the bitmap. Trace it (Path>Trace Bitmap). A dialog comes up which gives various options. These are different algorithms by which the edge detection is performed. Play with these options and values a bit, hitting the preview button every now and again to see what the result will look like. When you're ready, trace it. Easy. --Fuzzypeg☻ 21:31, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Gerpok_user.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gerpok_user.png. 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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. --The Sunshine Man 17:47, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Gurgling

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Arcticmonkeyslogo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Arcticmonkeyslogo.png. 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.

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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Thanks Anthony for your last notice about amioun.

In this beloved encyclopedia it is cardinal to maintain one single script, but can I ask you what do you mean by entries? I am relatively new in this domain, thanks in advance. --user:Naseem abi shaheen 17 june 2007

Unspecified source for Image:LinkOnHorse.png

Thanks for uploading Image:LinkOnHorse.png. 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 10:10, 30 July 2007 (UTC).

Replaceable fair use Image:Warren_barfield.png

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Warren_barfield.png. 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 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.

Notability of Lumen (band)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Lumen (band), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Lumen (band) seems 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Lumen (band), 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. --CSDWarnBot 18:02, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Image without license: Unspecified source for Image:Insect eating insect.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Insect eating insect.png. 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 03:12, 11 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? --MifterBot ^{(Talk • Contribs • Owner)} 03:12, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

"general" and "specific" reference in documentation of template:reflist

Hi. Your documentation of {{reflist}} discusses "general" and "specific" references. Did you just.. sorta use this terminology.. because it was a convenient way to express your thoughts and intent? In other words, did you see this terminology before using it, or did you just sorta arrive at it via the need for a convenient term (in essence, did you make it up yourself)? Thanks Ling.Nut ^{(talk—WP:3IAR)} 11:14, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Making notes, reference, further reading, and external links small?

Looking at the style guide, and and at the documentation for the templates relevant for the "standard appendices" after "see also", it strikes me that, although all of these appendices should be "small", if any of them are, that there's only template support for making "notes" and "references" small. Is there an agreed to approach to making "further reading" and "external links" small also? The obvious way to proceed is to use {{refbegin}} and {{refend}}. Is that the way to go? Are there {{notesbegin}} or {{furtherbegin}} templates that I've missed? Thanks for any guidance! — Aldaron • T/C 19:55, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Here's what I mean, if that wasn't clear. — Aldaron • T/C 20:00, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:Therulelogo.png)

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Therulelogo.png. 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 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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 16:37, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bathsheba Ratzkoff

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Bathsheba Ratzkoff 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 credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Toddst1 (talk) 23:20, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Qjackctl

The article Qjackctl has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of 2020 Kentucky Derby

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on 2020 Kentucky Derby requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.livetv-channel.com/what-channel-is-kentucky-derby-2019. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- φ OnePt618^Talk φ 03:44, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
