License tagging for File:Shoulder patch DPaW Western Australia 2014.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Shoulder patch DPaW Western Australia 2014.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:05, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

I forgot to indicate the license status of the image, but this image is mine and I'm okay to let anyone to use it. Unfortunately I cannot add any copyright... Should I wait to an administrator to delete it and reload it with a copyright? --Aussie Oc (talk) 03:26, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

I added a box certifying the file is of my own work, let me know if it's enough, please. --Aussie Oc (talk) 04:54, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, Aussie Oc, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• Tutorial
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
• Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Galleries

I am not sure that you understand WP:ABOUT and WP:NOT - wikipedia articles are not places for galleries of uniform items. You might need to have a look at other articles of similar subjects to see what wikipedia is about. JarrahTree 12:18, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I am new to Wikipedia in English... Apparently there are discrepancies between what's allowed or not depending on the language's version. Aussie Oc (talk) 14:18, 13 August 2015 (UTC) Sorry I click the 'patrolled' tag, not easy to use an iPod...Aussie Oc (talk) 14:21, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Culvert construction Dombakup V-2015.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Culvert construction Dombakup V-2015.jpg. 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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:46, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:55, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Time for review

OK, no one else has ventured into your magnum opus, of photos and uniform material at the DPAW article. It simply is not what WP:ABOUT.

If you are still editing, we need to negotiate a pull down of most of what you have put up. WP:GALLERY AND WP:NOT are what come to mind first.

I await your reply, so we can return the article to a better state. Please understand this is requested in WP:AGF JarrahTree 23:57, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

(Late) answer to ″Time for review"

Sorry, for the late answer, I was in Waroona firefighting...

The beauty of Wikipedia is that once an article is posted, it is alive. That means that anyone can amend, modify, add and even vandalize or suppress it. That is called a contribution.

If your will is to suppress it, feel free, that will add a 10,001 contribution to your award and I certainly won't oppose it as I am busy in real life.

You can oppose the WP:ABOUT but I simply used the model available on Department of Fire and Emergency Services, I know it's being lazy but someone provided his magnum opus...

Non-free rationale for File:Queensland+Parks+and+Wildlife.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Queensland+Parks+and+Wildlife.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 17:34, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 12

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Porongurup National Park, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Department of Environment and Conservation. 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.

Sorry my mistake, the link was supposed to be Department of Environment and Conservation (Western Australia)... I just corrected it!

Request for Help

Greetings/Gidday Mr Aussie Oc,

Nice to meet you.

Could you kindly help me translate this text into the unique and outstanding Occitan language? (ie. your Marseilles version of Occitan) please.

"En effet, Dieu a tant aimé le monde qu'il a donné son Fils unique afin que quiconque croit en lui ne périsse pas mais ait la vie éternelle."

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

If you prefer to translate from English to Occitan, then that is perfectly fine to me.

Your help would be fully appreciated, Thank you. --DaveZ123 (talk) 09:39, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello,

As requested, the translation of the below sentence in occitan language (provençal dialect):

"D'efèct, Dièu a tant amat lo monde qu'a balhat son dròlle solet per que cu que siègue crèsia en eu non perissa pas mai aguesse la vida eternala."

"En effet, Dieu a tant aimé le monde qu'il a donné son Fils unique afin que quiconque croit en lui ne périsse pas mais ait la vie éternelle."

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Regards

Aussie Oc (talk) 06:58, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Thank you

Thankyou very much Mr. Aussie Oc for your brilliant translation help!

I am exceptionally Grateful. The provençal dialect looks really nice.

May you be blessed!

Yours Sincerely, --DaveZ123 (talk) 13:06, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
