User talk:Maior1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You have new messages (last change).

Hello Maior1 - I reverted your edit because "metre" is not a wrong spelling, it is just the spelling of "meter" in Commonwealth English so changing it was not necessary. Also, who are you to say not to revert other users' edits in the future? Anyone can revert an edit that is not necessary (such as your spelling change) or an edit that is clearly vandalism, as you did to User:Iodyne's user page. Please do not put things on other people's user pages without their permission. Thank you. SCHZMO ✍ 18:13, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meter

Hi! I regret to have to inform you that I will revert your and others' edits as long as they are useless and considering the British/American spelling. British spelling is accepted on the English-language Wikipedia. I myself prefer American spelling, but I cannot make others use it and I am not expected to change all spellings to the American version. Therefore, please do not make edits changing from British to American spelling or vice versa. They are most likely to be reverted by me or other editors. Thank you.

If you revert again, you will be in violation of WP:3RR, at which point you will be blocked from editing by me for 24 hours. -lethe talk + 18:35, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I reverted it to keep the original spelling that you had had no right to change, and I'm going to make this revert again if you change the spelling variant somewhere. Daniel Šebesta (talk • contribs) 04:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:A maximus.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:A maximus.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.

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 fair use images 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. FreplySpang 18:29, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Yes you did vandalize Iodyne's user page. You put a picture of a woman on it without his permission. Did you have his permission?

By the way, you must be the same person as User:Maior. Editing on two accounts is discouraged; see WP:SOCK.

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:Raquel-welch.jpg

An image that you uploaded, Image:Raquel-welch.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

It is a copyright violation, because you uploaded it with a license that said that You have made the picture and it has no copyrights. Unfortunately that is a professional picture of that image. Since the Raquel Welch article already has 2 fair use images it wouldn't be proper to just add more fair use images. Please read Wikipedia:Fair use. Thanks. feydey 10:50, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Do not remove the copyright infringement tag from the image page before the issue is resolved. feydey 21:34, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. You have repeatedly committed Avoidant Vandalism as per Wikipedia policy: Avoidant vandalism Removing ((afd)), ((copyvio)) and other related tags in order to conceal or avoid entries to risk deletion. Your image (Image:A maximus.jpg) was uploaded in violation of the artist's stated copyright policy and without permission. You have failed to provide a copyright tag for this iamge, have removed valid copyright tags you disagreed with, and have removed violation tags added to the image.Dinoguy2 21:59, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

  • The User:Maior1 is most likely a sockpuppet for User:Maior, who already has been blocked indefinitely for aggrevated vandalism such as tampering with votes, making a hoax bibliographic entry and image copyvio offenses. He's now on his way to another indefinite ban by uploading dubious-copyright images and including them in articles, reverting their removals time and time again, and removing their suspected copyright violation tags. -- Mareklug talk 22:36, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
