Hi CBW! May I ask for your help regarding Nashville Airport? For months, an IP has been insisting to remove "charters" that have been proven public. Many reversing one. It was protected for a week last month but it proved fruitless in the longer term. HkCaGu (talk) 02:18, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Change of BI Norwegian Business School
Hi!
I was editing BI Norwegian Business School's wiki page yesterday. I saw that you deleted everything. I am working for the Dept. of Corporate Communication and was assigned to update the Wikipedia page. Could you please reverse your edits to the version I have created!
Johannes
- Johannessorger. Unfortunately most, if not all, the material you added was copied from http://www.bi.edu/, and that included most of the images of past presidents and the current president. At the bottom of the http://www.bi.edu/ it says "© BI Norwegian Business School" which means that Wikipedia can not use the material. Please see Wikipedia:Copyrights#Using copyrighted work from others and Wikipedia:Copyrights#Copyright violations. Everything must be in the editors own words or the material must be available under a licence that Wikipedia can use such as the box at the top of Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
- Given that you work for the school means you have a Wikipedia:Conflict of interest (WP:COI). You don't have to read that whole page but basically you are paid by the school and are editing on their behalf. What you should do is go to Talk:BI Norwegian Business School and post that you are paid to edit the page, you can use the Template:Connected contributor (paid) to do that. Then you should suggest edits on the talk page so that others can look them over to make sure they omply with Wikipedia's policies.

Cold Lake, Alberta
Are fictional characters included in a town's "notable people" now? Because I seem to be alone in removing them. 117Avenue (talk) 00:30, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- 117Avenue. Yes and no but mainly no. I found List of people from New Orleans#Fictional but I have no idea if that is common or not. The only other thing I noticed was the second paragraph at Riverside, Iowa. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 02:05, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- Notable, yes; but people, no. 117Avenue (talk) 02:28, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not bothered either way. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 05:09, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Image Copyright
Hi Cambridge,
I wrote this article on the company I work for (one of the biggest jewellery chains in the country) and you warned me of copywrite images. I used the image because I thought it improved the page and as I said, I work for the company - what would you suggest I do? Should I use an image that's not on the website perhaps?
Also, I'm unsure why the article is being marked for deletion - our competitors such as Beaverbrooks, John Greed etc have pages and yet ours is marked for deletion. I am confused, I made it non-promotional?
I just want to get the article submitted - I don't need to it be self-promotional, I just think it's important that it exists. Do you have any advice? (I have read the guides on the home page.)
Anyway, here is the link, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TH_Baker

Why was the page deleted? I wanted to be the first to write about this artist. He's really interesting and is doing alot of shows and tours but surprisingly no ones written about him yet — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hxrus (talk • contribs) 11:45, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Hxrus: I nominated it for deletion, and Cambride deleted it, because: 1) you created the article with just a few links and 2) there was no substance. If you recreate the page, ensure that it's someone notable and ensure you use credible sources.

Request for Guidence
I have been having issues with a IP user recently 87.7.226.37 (talk · contribs), 82.49.196.175 (talk · contribs). On the article Adam Adamowicz, I originally removed a credited work 'Fallout 4' because the only information cited was 'Cited in game and staff credits.
The edit summery by the IP, seemed to be fairly rude. I thought after I found the ref this would stop the IP's comments but as you see here in the history; it did not. I want to put a warning on the IP's talk, but I don't want them to anger them buy adding it. I not sure what temple is best
{{subst:uw-wrongsummary}}
{{uw-harass1}}
{{subst:uw-multipleIPs}}
So should I add the warning, or another editor? Please let me know if there is a better template to use, or abetter way about going this. Thanks, Kyle1278 (talk) 18:43, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Kyle1278-2. I would go with a personal message. Just explain that they seem a bit rude and people can disagree and sill be polite. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 19:01, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Okay sounds good; thank you for your input on the matter. Kyle1278 (talk) 19:51, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for April 16
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Canadian Inuit, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Clyde River (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:03, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
Thule is cool!
Hi CBW! I am so pleased you added the 5th Thule Atlas to Knud Rasmussen, to liberate knowledge from Denmark to flow over the North Pole. I had no idea of this digital project, but of course now it seems not only sensible but inevitable. What amazing times we live in. I am writing this note to see if I could persuade you to start an article on the Fifth Thule Expedition, and possibly the other expeditions, and maybe the atlas project itself. It doesn't have to be elaborate or comprehensive, but I think you have the background (the intellectual culture?) to hammer it out. By the way, I love the Tshirt image. Where else is there a street named after a fetus?!?! I am intrigued by the linguistics: it appears that all the words for different types of caribou have no common root. Is that correct? Fascinating stuff, seeing the world differently through different languages. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 12:49, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
Editing Ugaar saleebaan - Wikipedia
ugaar saleebaan is major sub-clan of Somali - darod - majeerteen - ugaar saleebaan
i have created a page on Wikipedia and wrote about the clan accurate , true and professional information .
so i suggest you to consider it before deletion or any changes , i'm here to help with a further needed information
thank you we all appreciate Wikipedia the non-profit encyclopedia
i'm a professional editor and writer — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drhassandaabad (talk • contribs) 19:16, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
- Drhassandaabad. The problem is you didn't add any Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Without sources other readers can see that it meet Wikipedia:Verifiability. The other problem is people add sub clans to the clan list, then someone else removes it and adds something else. This goes on and on until the clan list are huge and unsourced. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 02:09, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
hi CambridgeBayWeather
about ugaar saleebaan article as u mentioned that im not yet provided a reliable source according to Wikipedia policy , but i have cited a two important websites and news mentioning about the clan's leadership and lately news update , and i'm willing to provide a further reliable source and documents . the issue you said people are editing and adding up some lists till the clan list is huge , i strongly agree with you on thin point , talking about majeerteen clan ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majeerteen ) - major notable sub-clans are like this - no need further listing and editing
Omar Mahmud Issa Mahmud Osman Mahmoud ali saleebaan ugaar saleebaan[11]
source - i'm experienced in Somali culture , history and language , further more , if you need any information or editing suggestions about Somalia and Somali culture articles on Wikipedia , i'm here helping hand with out any demanding profit - as Wikipedia - the non-profit encyclopedia - thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drhassandaabad (talk • contribs) 19:39, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
Protection
Hey. You once protected Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. The protection expired recently and the edits have resumed. I thought I'd let you know so you can judge for yourself whether it should be protected now or later as you're familiar with the situation. I will end up formally requesting page protection anyway, even if you don't protect it yourself. —DangerousJXD (talk) 23:56, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
- DangerousJXD. Gave it another six months. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 07:04, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

Flag of Edmonton
The Flag of Calgary has this for it's licensing. My question is; Would it not apply to the Flag of Edmonton? Or am I missing something? Cheers - Kyle1278 (talk) 02:29, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
- Kyle1278-2. Not necessarily. The Calgary one is fairly simple and may not be eligible for copyright. This sometimes applies to company logos such as File:TH-Baker-Family-Jewellers.png. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 14:51, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
- Okay thanks for the info! Cheers - Kyle1278 (talk) 23:25, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
Fort McMurray
Please lock the Fort McMurray page. It is being vandalized unnecessary and people are making light of the current crisis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.3.155.219 (talk) 03:40, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
- It is already protected. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 11:12, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
Thank you Sir, that was me last night getting very frusterated by the vandalism. I am glad it got protected. Please Sir, tell me how is the weather up there now? Last we talked it was still quite cold. Kindest regards, Norsemanmick (talk) 01:05, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks. It's only -7 but windy and blowing snow. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 04:08, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
