Orphaned fair use image (Image:Snapshot224.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Snapshot224.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 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.

License tagging for Image:Exercito1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Exercito1.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands 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.

Glass theme for GNOME

I was reading about GNOME and saw your screenshot using "Glass" theme. Where'd you find the theme?

-jcarkeys 03:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

This guy awnswered it ages ago: * Window Decoration: to get the glass effect you need install Beryl and get it running and after get one of these themes: Vista-Linux True Vista Experience these themes are for Beryl, you should add on Beryl control panel.

• GTK Theme: Linsta2 to get the menu color gradient you need install gtk2-engines-pixbuf (Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf)
• Icons: Aero
• Login Manager: Linux Vista GDM

Non-free use disputed for Image:BMkart.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:BMkart.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:50, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Indy 500 the simulation and screenshots

Thanks for adding the CVG infobox - it was well-needed.

I just wanted to advise that while images are much appreciated, sometimes people get restrictive about how many screenshots can be added to an article. The official rule seems to be 1 in-game shot. Please do not take offense if someone discusses this with you sometime in the future.

As an aside, all screenshots are usually tagged with "{{Non-free game screenshot}}", like you already did with Image:Indy500sa.png . Also, I'm not sure why you replaced the in-game racing screenshot with a new one, but I might look at/compare which one is better and consult with you which would work best for the article.

Thanks, Guroadrunner 06:37, 1 June 2007 (UTC) (Indy 500 the sim article creator and contributor)

Tux logos

Hi, I've noticed that you are the contributor of Image:Tuxblog.jpg. You have specified in the Source field that this image originally came from Wikipedia. I don't understand how this is the case, as the link is self referencing. You have also specified the license is GFDL.

Did you create this image yourself, or did you find it somewhere and upload it? If you found it somewhere, where did you find it from?

Please respond either in here on your talk page, or on my talk page. Please do respond to this, otherwise the image may have to be deleted.

Thanks, --Zaf^(t) 05:19, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Not Vandalism

Hello. While although I'm sure you had the best of intentions, and were acting entirely in good faith, the edit you reverted on the xbox 360 page was not vandalism. (It may or may not have been a good edit, mind you. But that's a separate matter)
We're having a hard time tracking down where microsoft actually said that it's within 3-5%. Heck, we're even having a hard time confirming that that (rather suspicious) number is even what they consider to be normal for the 'industry' (or what industry they were allegedly talkinga bout).
Yes, lots (and lots and lots) of people seem to quote them as having said 3-5%, but we can't seem to find any sources that actually directly quote that figure; they simply mention it in passing, as though it's something they heard that someone heard that microsoft had said.
In any event, on a couple of the 360 talk pages (ie. on that page, and on the technical problems page), we've been discussing whether or not we can even definitively state that they made the claim, and whether or not it could be treated as being a 'normal' rate, even if we could finally find the quote.
uh, anyways. long story short: not vandalism, because they've been discussing it on the talk page, and it's in good faith. Bladestorm 13:39, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

It looks like Blade beat me to this. Anyways, please stop repeatedly making these edits to the intro. That section is under heavy discussion in talk right now and a consensus is being worked on. If you wish to work on the article, please participate in the discussion instead of unilaterally editing sections that are under debate. --Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@ 14:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Sorry... I didn't realize. I saw blanked content and figured... mention what you're doing in the edit summary and it won't happen again.

Please do not remove content

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from New Seven Wonders of the World. Please be more careful when editing pages and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Kralizec!

moving the paragraph about the New Seven Wonders into the lead section. There is consensus that it does not belong there. IPSOS (talk) 00:46, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Removal of citation requests without providing citations is vandalism

Welcome to Wikipedia.

Unsourced, original research material you put back in Fanboy

Hi there! Over in the Fanboy article I removed some unsourced material that constituted original research, which is generally not to be included in encyclopedia articles. You put it back without explanation. Can you please come to the talk page and give some kind of reason why it should be there? If you can't, I'm going to take it out again because original research can't be included in articles. The material you put back in might even be true (probably is), but if it stays in the article without some kind of justification or sourcing, some overzealous editor or administrator is going to come along and delete the whole article, calling it a "magnet for original research". I'm trying to save the article. Vadder 17:07, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:PaperMario2.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:PaperMario2.jpg. 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 ensure 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 non-free media 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. Videmus Omnia ^Talk 06:19, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

"Subjects of obsession" section in Fanboy

I am once again removing this section, as it is subject to partisanship and cheap-shot additions. Every topic has its fanboys. Please do not restore it! It becomes a magnet for everybody who wishes to mock someone else's interests or obsessions. --Orange Mike 13:16, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Your Recent PlayStation 2 article edit

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to PlayStation 2. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

I would also like to add that by reverting the information to that which is nearly a year old constitutes as vandalism. The Comparison of the sixth-generation era article is only needed as a summary of each console and therefore is more focused on comparison. PlayStation 2 is recognised as a world success and the current sales information is available, therefore this is absolutely important to place on the PlayStation 2 article itself, which is actually about the PlayStation 2, then the comparison article which is about four or more consoles. As you can see, reverting these edits is considered vandalism, you are taking away recent information and needed information. This information is of more importance on the PlayStation 2 article than a comparison page. Also, if you have added it to the comparison page there is no reason at all to get rid of it from the PlayStation 2 page. Please refrain from doing so in future. Thank you.

• Evidence - [1] User stated that he/she was following WP:INTRO guideline, but did not clean. Instead removed summary information and latest updated information and reverted back to information nearly 7 months old [March 2007]. Also removed important references and sources for the article.

As mentioned, please refrain from doing so in the future. JTBX 21:05, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Angie Akers

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Angie Akers, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Angie Akers.

Replaceable fair use Image:Banned360.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Banned360.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

PS3 was a deciding factor in the win of the Blu-Ray. The article has this evidence cited. If you remove it, it will be deemed as vandalism. 64.236.121.129 (talk) 14:01, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Please do not vandalize the article. Thank you. 64.236.121.129 (talk) 14:17, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I guess who is vadalizing something is you, trolling my user talk page. I just complained in article talk page and don't made any editions in the article changing this. --Ciao 90 (talk) 14:17, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Isabella Nardoni case AFD nomination

Hello, I just noticed you nominated the page Isabella Nardoni case (which I have created) for deletion yesterday. The result was Keep, as you can see here. Anyway, it was very impolite of you not to have notified me about your nomination on my talk page. I've been away from the computer for some days, but I found time to use it for a few minutes now. If I was to stay away for more days, and the article was to be deleted, I could have figured it out only after the deletion, which means that I wouldn't have the chance to improve it. The article is secured now, but keep that in mind for further nominations of yours. It really isn't nice to have your own work simply erased without your knowledge. Thank you, and happy editing.

Brazil national football team

Hi! I replied in the article's talk page. Regards, --Carioca (talk) 21:46, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Importance is a subjetive thing, and if brazilians win a tournment they say it´s important, and if they loose, it´s not. For the Olympics 1996 the played with Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Bebeto, Mauro Silva, Roberto Carlos... At theese olympics 2008 they called Ronaldinho, Diego, Rafinha, Anderson, Lucas, Alexandre Pato, Marcelo, Jo, Rafael Sobis, etc, all important players who have played for the senior team...

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and we musn´t hide things, as many users want to do. The sentence is true and it will be where it was. --Ultracanalla (talk) 23:32, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:LittleBigPlanetOfficialUKBoxArt.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:LittleBigPlanetOfficialUKBoxArt.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:31, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Carmen Miranda

Hi! Opinoso is not an administrator (check this list), but even if he was an administrator, his opinion would have the same weight than the opinion of non-administrators. So, you can go ahead and discuss any changes to the article, if you want to. Regarding Carmen Miranda's nationality, the Carmen Miranda article implies that she is a naturalized Brazilian: "shortly after her birth, her father, José Maria, emigrated to Brazil and settled in Rio de Janeiro", but that info is unsourced, so I don't know if it correct or not. Anyway, it is better to discuss in the talk page before making any changes to the article. You can even suggest a replacement for Carmen Miranda in the article's talk page. Hope that helps. --Carioca (talk) 20:59, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Psxlogo.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Psxlogo.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 non-free media 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.  Asenine  17:13, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: PSX

Please continue this discussion in User talk:Silver Edge#PSX. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:47, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

• Hello, the issue is not the article name, you moved the article improperly by copying and pasting the content from PSX (DVR) to PSX without moving its history. See WP:MM#How to rename a page. --Silver Edge (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Cut and paste moves

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Kojima (disambiguation) a different title by copying its content and pasting it into Kojima. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. —Ashanda (talk) 04:49, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

User:Opinoso and Brazilian people article.

Hi! I just saw your discussion with Opinoso. As both of you agree that the image should be replaced, I suggest you to contact Dantadd, who is an administrator at Wikimedia Commons and is the one who uploaded the image there, and request to him to upload a new image with a replacement for the Carmen Miranda image. You can mention to him the Brazilian people article discussion. Hope that helps --Carioca (talk) 17:33, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Zeebo Inc.

A tag has been placed on Zeebo Inc. 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 company or corporation, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. KurtRaschke (talk) 21:37, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for File:Zeebo.jpg}

Thank you for uploading File:Zeebo.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. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

License tagging for File:Psp go 001bmp.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Psp go 001bmp.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.

AfD nomination of Jeff Peckman

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Jeff Peckman. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeff Peckman. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:06, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Ways to improve National vs. Club teams

Hi, I'm Alpedio. Ciao 90, thanks for creating National vs. Club teams!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. A few suggestions: You may want to make a list of the recorded games, and then format them into a table. You should also change the title to something that flows more. Such as "List of recorded football games between National and Club teams". --Alp

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. —Preceding undated comment added 01:02, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your work on en.WP. Please note that we don't normally link years, dates, common terms, and common country-names. Cheers. Tony (talk) 04:38, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Firefox Rock Festival

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 Firefox Rock Festival 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 an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not 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 "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. Epeefleche (talk) 20:53, 16 June 2014 (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.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Poorich.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Poorich.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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.

Orphaned non-free image File:Ninja gaiden sigma boxart.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Ninja gaiden sigma boxart.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:56, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Fatboy Slim Presents Bem Brasil moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Fatboy Slim Presents Bem Brasil, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
