Thanks for your message. When I moved [[Beijing October First Secondary School]] to [[Beijing National Day School]] on 5 July 2008, I was sure, as I wrote in the edit summary, that the official English name in its official website was [[Beijing National Day School]]. You may still find this name in its website at, e.g., [http://www.bjshiyi.org.cn/internation/762.html this page]. Please note that this page was posted on May 21, 2008. Although there is also [http://www.bjshiyi.org.cn/internation/441.html a page] at its website using the name [[Beijing October First School]], it was posted on April 4, 2006. Probably the School changed its official English name. You may also find other webpages on the [[Internet]] using the name [[Beijing National Day School]] , such as [http://www.admissions.cn/bjshiyi/index1.htm this page]. Therefore I think that my move was right and this article should be moved back to [[Beijing National Day School]]. I have posted this comment at [[Talk:Beijing October First School]]. If you are interested, please discuss there. Thanks.--[[User:Neo-Jay|Neo-Jay]] ([[User talk:Neo-Jay|talk]]) 09:05, 18 October 2008 (UTC) |

Please notice that the [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|Wikipedia's reliable sources]] are published sources, websites, etc., and not your personal memory. I'll wait for two or three weeks for your confirmation. If there is no new pages posted on this School's website, this article will be moved back to its ''current'' official English name. Wikipedia is for the world and cannot wait for you too long. AND, please leave your comment at [[Talk:Beijing October First School]], NOT my talk page. Thanks--[[User:Neo-Jay|Neo-Jay]] ([[User talk:Neo-Jay|talk]]) 10:04, 18 October 2008 (UTC) |

It's you that used impolite words to accuse me. You call them ''friendly circumstance''? Come on, please. Let's try to be civil. I have provided my reliable and verified source. That's not my own POV. According to the current evidence, the School's name should be [[Beijing National Day School]]. And I also said that I would wait for your verification and possible new evidence. But of course Wikipedia cannot wait for you endlessly. And, AGAIN: please go to [[Talk:Beijing October First School]] and don't leave your comments at my talk page. This discussion should be public and open to every reader who is interested in this article. A user's talk page is not appropriate for this discussion. Thanks for your understanding.--[[User:Neo-Jay|Neo-Jay]] ([[User talk:Neo-Jay|talk]]) 16:59, 18 October 2008 (UTC) |

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Oct1 logo.JPG
[edit]Thank you for uploading Image:Oct1 logo.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:34, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
English etc.
[edit]Just to clarify - the problem is not Chinese editors, it's editors who don't write English well, so that the people who eventually have to do the cleanup (me, and others) spend more time than is optimal figuring out what the editor meant. Yunfeng (talk) 21:28, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Your English is good enough
[edit]Just forget the stupid comments by others. Your English is good enough. Be brave. You have done quite well and thanks for your work on the article of earthquake. God bless China. --Jingandteller (talk) 00:15, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Oct1 logo.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Oct1 logo.JPG. 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. Skier Dude (talk 03:47, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
