Gimme More FAC

edit

Thank you for you support on Gimme More's FAC process. The result was not promoted. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 09:16, 6 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

It was actually my fault. I know that it was just revamped a week or so before I ran for a PR and nominate for FA. Maybe I'll try for GA first. I'll be grateful if you'll help along the process. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 05:23, 7 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thank you very much. I'll check it now. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 00:30, 10 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hello Suduser. I'm here again. I know that Déjà Vu still needs a copyediting, but do you think this is ready for GA? --BritandBeyonce (talk) 09:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the recommendation. I will try but he might not respond quickly. I think he's out in Wiki at this moment. Good luck to your real life works. --BritandBeyonce (talk) 06:19, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Umasked_but_blurred.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.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 16:56, 6 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Sugarray logo.png)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Sugarray logo.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).

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:KammerFlimmern2.JPG

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:KammerFlimmern2.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 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.

Motto of the day

edit

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art

edit

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject, or I happen to know personally).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:28, 10 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Romanthony.jpg

edit
 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Romanthony.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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:23, 1 May 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 11:23, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Desperate Housewives (season 2)

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! And I totally agree, I was actually planning on posting that on the article's discussion page. I don't think the British ratings are necessary. They aren't sourced. However, if we want to keep the information on there, we can change the "American viewers in millions" column in the episode list to "Viewers in millions" and for each episode, put both numbers with (US) or (UK) following it. But again I don't think they're necessary. Also, I just want to say that I am still working on the Awards section and I still want to put a DVD release section in the article. I'll be doing that within the next few days. Akcvtt (talk) 03:48, 16 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:LP In the End.JPG

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:LP In the End.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator 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. FASTILYsock(TALK) 07:36, 18 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Linkin park hybrid theory.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Linkin park hybrid theory.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).

PLEASE NOTE:

Recurring jokes in SpongeBob SquarePants listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Recurring jokes in SpongeBob SquarePants. Since you had some involvement with the Recurring jokes in SpongeBob SquarePants redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

Proposed deletion of Sergio Ristie

edit
 

The article Sergio Ristie has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Appears to fail WP:NACTOR as he hasn't had multiple, significant roles. Source searches suggest he also fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

LA to FA 2022

LA to FA 2022
 

Dear Suduser85,

You're invited to a zoom call, taking place on February 11, with the goal of improving the article on Los Angeles to Featured article status! I often find it daunting to approach the Big Subjects on my own—so if you, like me, want a time to sit down with fellow dedicated editors and tackle something important and complex, this is the zoom for you! I, unfortunately, have no way to transmit snacks over zoom; but I trust you to exercise good judgement and discretion in selecting snacks of your own. Hope to see you there—if you're interested, add your name here!
