Hello, I was wondering if you could close this old backlogged deletion review. Which has been completely lost in the archives and it doesn't look like anyone else is going to comment on it.[[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jared Yates]].

Hi there. :-) I've seen you're replacing the images in [[Same-sex marriage in Spain]] by the ones in Commons. Just so you know, originally the images were placed (with permission) in the English Wikipedia and later added (by a friend of mine who has an account there) to Commons so they'd be available on the Wikipedias of other languages. You're free to keep replacing them here if you want, but there's really not much point. :-) Just thought I'd let you know. Cheers! [[User:Raystorm|Raystorm]] 17:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC) |

:Raystorm, thanks for your notice. If the same images are available on commons with free license and undisputed then I think there is really a point to replace them with commons ones to reduce the load on servers by deleting duplicate images on local pages. Could you tag those images with {{subst:[[Template:NC|NC]]|Image:Imagefilename.ext}}? It would be great help. Regards, [[User:Shyam Bihari| < |

:Probably, I did not delete the image according to [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Image:WiliamsTowerFromStreet.jpg log]. May be, you are talking about another one. Anyways, thanks for restoring, I might have missed out that tag. Regards, [[User:Shyam Bihari| < |

:Hi Fddfred, thanks for asking me about this. I would like to help as much as I can. If you want to upload logos here from some websites. In most of the cases, logos are in fair-use. So, fair-use policy on Wikipedia is quite tidius. First provide the source from where you uploaded the image. Use copyright tag for the image. In the case of university logos use {{t1|univ-logo}} for the copyright tag. Provide [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale|fair-use rationale]] for each article on the image page itself where do you want to use that image specifying why it is useful to use that logo on Wikipedia on that/those article(s). If you have any doubts regarding this, feel free to ask me, I will try to make them solve. Regards, [[User:Shyam| < |

Not that it's worthwhile to bring up at DRV, but what on earth would have made you think there was consensus to delete?

Image:Noreen_1908.PNG
The source was claimed to be from 1908 and it looks like an accurate description to me. Isn't this quite enough for it not to be considered a copyright violation?
Peter Isotalo 11:34, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- I could not find out enough information or image description on the Image file. The image was deleted because it was not tagged for more than seven days of its upload. Please read image use policy carefully. If still there are any questions then please let me know. Thank you, Shyam (T/C) 12:35, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Old AFD review
Hello, I was wondering if you could close this old backlogged deletion review. Which has been completely lost in the archives and it doesn't look like anyone else is going to comment on it.Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jared Yates. Retiono Virginian 14:48, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- It has been closed and performed as of now. Cheers, Shyam (T/C) 15:02, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
SSM in Spain
Hi there. :-) I've seen you're replacing the images in Same-sex marriage in Spain by the ones in Commons. Just so you know, originally the images were placed (with permission) in the English Wikipedia and later added (by a friend of mine who has an account there) to Commons so they'd be available on the Wikipedias of other languages. You're free to keep replacing them here if you want, but there's really not much point. :-) Just thought I'd let you know. Cheers! Raystorm 17:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- Raystorm, thanks for your notice. If the same images are available on commons with free license and undisputed then I think there is really a point to replace them with commons ones to reduce the load on servers by deleting duplicate images on local pages. Could you tag those images with {{subst:NC|Image:Imagefilename.ext}}? It would be great help. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 17:13, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Deleted image
Why did you delete Image:WiliamsTowerFromStreet.jpg. It has the appropriate tag. The tag was added more than 7 days ago. I restored the deleted image. Postoak 18:50, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- Probably, I did not delete the image according to log. May be, you are talking about another one. Anyways, thanks for restoring, I might have missed out that tag. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 18:57, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright tag
hi! i'm new to wikipedia especially in uploading images. i can't make it right and it is always deleted. i know what a copyright is but the instructions in wikipedia help is a little bit difficult for me to understand (given that i'm just contributing and don't have much time to read and understand word-for-word and everything). is there any other way i could post a university's logo without violating any wikipedia conditions? is there somebody who could explain to me in simple english how to post an image without being deleted? i really do hope you could help me. thanks in advance!
- i'm involve with the WikiProject Universities and most of the university logos i've seen has the same status as the image you just deleted. does that give me the right to delete their logos too? please do not reply by posting any help links, just need a step by step instruction on how to put it back. thanks! hope you'll understand. Fddfred 04:39, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Fddfred, thanks for asking me about this. I would like to help as much as I can. If you want to upload logos here from some websites. In most of the cases, logos are in fair-use. So, fair-use policy on Wikipedia is quite tidius. First provide the source from where you uploaded the image. Use copyright tag for the image. In the case of university logos use {{univ-logo}} for the copyright tag. Provide fair-use rationale for each article on the image page itself where do you want to use that image specifying why it is useful to use that logo on Wikipedia on that/those article(s). If you have any doubts regarding this, feel free to ask me, I will try to make them solve. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 15:17, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
Username changing
It's very kind of you to archive those, but I think Voice of All has a bot which does it automatically after 24h or so. Regards — Dan | talk 04:39, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you Dan, I would not to archive again. I was not aware of that bot. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 04:40, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Bot?
If you are not a bot, please read the message at the top of User talk:Emax. It was at the bottom, too, but some people still posted below it (perhaps I should make it blink and scream...). Thank you, -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 22:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I have read the message. But, I do not seek any possible alternate if the user is not replying to those mails as well. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 12:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:NOT does not say that wikipedia should not be a news website. It clearly states in seciton 6: "Wikipedia should not offer first-hand news reports on breaking stories. Wikipedia is not a primary source. However, our sister project Wikinews does exactly that, and is intended to be a primary source. Wikipedia does have many encyclopedia articles on topics of historical significance that are currently in the news, and can be updated with recent verified information."
The Portal:Current events/Canada is not a primary source as per the definition of secondary source. It fits in all the other history / current events articles like many of the trial articles and world political articles. Mkdwtalk 13:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:RFCU and clerks
Greetings! A recent change has been made in the clerking system at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser. There are no longer any obstacles to editors who wish to help out in this areas, as the standby list has now been deprecated. You were listed as a volunteer on the standby list before it was deprecated. If you are still interested in helping out in this area, please:
- Consider adding yourself to the list of active clerks at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks.
- In helping, please make sure you follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Procedures as it is very important to the process there to follow these instructions for smooth operation.
- Please remember "Trust between the clerks and the checkusers is essential. Clerks who persistently make problematic comments on requests or otherwise violate decorum may be asked by the checkusers to cease contributing here."
- Add Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Clerks/Noticeboard to your watchlist to stay up to do date on the latest communications happening regarding this role.
- "Be aware that this position is rather dull and carries no particular prestige; status-seeking will not be looked upon kindly."
I am not involved with the checkuser system. I am acting only to inform you of this change. Thank you. --Durin 14:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Commons images
Hello Shyam, I noticed you've replaced some WP images with Commons images. Is it policy to ensure that the Commons images are at least as good in quality (e.g. resolution) as the ones on WP? Appleseed (Talk) 18:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the images available on commons must be of better or of the same quality as available on Wikipedia to replace them with commons. Is there any specific type of case do you want to ask? Regards, Shyam (T/C) 19:53, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'm glad to hear that. I was wondering because I've uploaded several images, and I would hate for them to be accidentally replaced with lower-quality ones on Commons. Appleseed (Talk) 21:40, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:RFCU clerks
Good afternoon (GMT time); I noticed you recently alphabatised the list of clerks. I also done the same, but this was reverted by Daniel.Bryant. Just giving you the heads up, in case the same happens to you. I personally think alphabetical order is an improvement over the "chronological" order, which seems to indicate superiority rather than anything else. At the end of the day, Daniel was Head Clerk, before the position was retired but nevertheless, I don't see how our improvements can hinder the actual clerking.
Kind regards,

Your name is still listed at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Volunteers. The department is heavily backlogged with student's requests for coaches, and we need your help!
Note that the instructions may have changed since the last time you checked, and the department now follows a self-help process...
If you don't currently have a student, or if you believe you can handle another one, please select a student from the request list at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests and contact them. See the instructions on Wikipedia:Admin coaching. Good luck.
If you are no longer available to coach, , please remove yourself from the volunteers list.
Thank you.

cfd
Hi Shyam. I've nominated Category:Richard Dawkins Award winners for deletion, as there has recently been a move at CFD to stop categorizing people by the awards they've won. The category page links to the CFD where you can comment if you like. Later, — coelacan — 06:34, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Alexandra Paul image
On March 4, you deleted Special:Undelete/Image:Paul_bonaire.jpg, noting that it was now on the Commons. That's great, but it had a different name on the commons, so for a month, the Alexandra Paul article was sitting with a red link instead of an image. I fixed it, but wanted to note it for next time. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:27, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Special note to spamlist users: Apologies for the formatting issues in previous issues. This only recently became a problem due to a change in HTML Tidy; however, I am to blame on this issue. Sorry, and all messages from this one forward should be fine (I hope!) -Ral315

Image:Ambareesh.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ambareesh.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:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - 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. Abu badali (talk) 17:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

As mentioned in Wikiproject India newsletter of March 2007, the weekly collaboration of the Indian wikiproject has fallen from its once high feats. This message is to request the users to visit the collaboration page and help rejuvenate it.
The present collaboration of the week is Religion in India. Please go through the talk page of the article to see the proposed changes in the article. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:44, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I have re-submitted Portal:China to WP:FPOC. A lot of work have been contributed to this portal, but the previous nomination ended up receiving few final attentions. I wonder if you can look at the portal again and see if your previous comments were addressed, and of course, and further comments that should be addressed. Thank you so much!

Admin coaching and adminship
Hey Shyam! I saw in your contribs that you're back. I've answered the questions you left on my admin coaching page as well as written one to you. I'm planning on running for adminship in a week. Do you think I'm jumping the gun? I'll change my plans if you believe that it's too soon. The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 22:49, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Ikiroid, sorry for the convinience because of my inactiveness. It would be better to wait for some days before going for an RfA. I want to have a look through your contributions as time permits. I am still busy with my academics. I made some contributions in last two days as I was missing Wikipedia. I would request to wait for some days. Shyam (T/C) 08:18, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- Sounds good, I'd rather have your assessment and approval first. I've been constantly checking your contributions for the past five weeks for activity and I thought that you had disappeared. I'll tell the nominator to wait, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm willing to wait another couple weeks/months until the time is right. Nice to see you back.

Just in case you aren't aware, a policy was recently implemented by the Wikimedia Foundation, regarding access to nonpublic data (see [3]) Please note if you do not comply with these rules you should remove yourself from OTRS volunteering where your name is listed. Otherwise, please ignore this message :) Kind regards, Majorly (hot!) 17:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Shyam. An automated process has found and removed a fair use image used in your userspace. The image (Image:1915 Dance by Rodchenko.jpg) was found at the following location: User talk:Shyam/Archive4. This image was removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image was replaced with Image:Example.jpg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image to replace it with. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 23:04, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Not that it's worthwhile to bring up at DRV, but what on earth would have made you think there was consensus to delete? Looking at the history, there was 2 users for "keep", 2 for "remove", and one comment with the edit summary "chit chat": that's not a clear consensus. What do you think? ⇒ SWATJester Denny Crane. 10:28, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

I noticed at User talk:136.8.1.100 that you had a history with the above user. He recently blanked a page Hamare Tumhare and since he has had warnings, maybe someone who knows some background should deal with it. I'll watch and see. Thanks in advance. --Stormbay 21:10, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Indian politician stubs
It's great that you've created so many Indian politician stubs, but in the future, please be careful to proofread your template before creating all of them. Many [4] have "politician" misspelled as "politican". --Thiseye 17:50, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Someone's Bothering Me
This dude, Enfestid, keeps deleting the System Requirements info im putting up for an upcomming PC game, Crysis (http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Crysis&action=history). He says that im not properly citing my sources (which may be something i need you to fill me in on) and that most of the information that i posted is already up there (which its not). Please, mediate this problem :D thx.KittenKiller
- Kittenkiller, it could be better, if you properly cite the sources from where you posted the informations on Crysis. This kind of information may need of cite sourcing for verification. So I do not seek any harm in citing sources. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 04:56, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- OK, so can you tell me how to do it correctly? take the problem i am having in the Crysis article for this example. iv already searched wikipedia for the article that explains how to cite sources. doesnt help. thanks. KittenKiller
- Currently, I am not so active on Wikipedia because I am busy in real life. I am really sorry for not helping out in this case. You may take help from other people. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 03:23, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks!

Image:Sun, Earth size comparison labeled.jpg
Hi, you apperently deleted and restored Image:Sun, Earth size comparison labeled.jpg but I cannot find the pic. Can you enlighten me? — Xiutwel ♫☺♥♪ (talk) 18:39, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- The image file was being deleted because it was available on commons. Now, the image has been deleted from commons. So, it has been restored again. Cheers, Shyam (T/C) 06:17, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
- Why are you restoring an image that was properly deleted from Commons for being non-commercial (like all SOHO sun images)? 75.61.97.188 15:54, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
- The picture is one of the featured ones. So, I think it would be better to first restore and then get a community consensus. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 11:28, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
