[edit] Magmatron
Magmatron was marked as a copyvio by User:Crzrussian and deleted by User:Mushroom. Best to contact them for any follow-up. By rights you should have received a message on your talk page about the deletion, but this doesn't always happen. Earlier in the day, the page had been marked for "speedy deletion" possibly for the same reason. Any material copied from other sources may lead to such deletions. Wikipedia is very strict about copyvio and the philosophy "it's on the Net so it's public domain" is not accepted here. Hope this helps. 23skidoo 21:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
- Additional - according to the copyvio archive, the claim is that a substantial portion of the page was identical to [1] and after a quick glance I have to agree. After looking at other postings on your talk page, I recommend you review Wikipedia's copyright policy. 23skidoo 21:55, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your text
Magmatron is a Transformers character who first appeared in the Japanese Beast Wars Neo series, and was later released in the Beast Machines Dinobots line. His body is made up of 3 smaller robots who take the form of a Gigantosaurus, Elasmosaur and a Quetzalcoatlus. They can combine into a humanoid robot form, or that of a giant Fuzor with attributes of all three beasts. His only has one personality, and seems to be somehow related to the Generation One Duocons, only with 3 split forms instead of 2. Magmatron appeared in the Transformers: Universe - Wreckers comics in the US as leader of the Dinobots, as well as a Predacon leader in the IDW Beast Wars comics.
- This is your text. If the other text was on the original box it's probably copyrighted, so you can't use it without permission. Please don't add it back, maybe you could rewrite it using different words. Thank you. Mushroom (Talk) 11:58, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

- If it's a translation, you need permission from both the original author and the translator. The main reason for this is that everything that is put on Wikipedia is automatically released under the GFDL license, so the text becomes free to use and the author loses some rights over it. This is illegal without the author's explicit consent. You can read more about this at Wikipedia:Copyrights or Wikipedia:Copyright FAQ. If you find similar cases of copyright violation on Wikipedia, please report them to WP:CV. Thank you. Mushroom (Talk) 15:52, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tech Specs
Please do not use Wikipedia to promote your fanmade tech specs. If there is information you wish to add, put them in actual text form, not in images. ' (Feeling chatty? ) (Edits!) 21:42, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

- Stop it. ' (Feeling chatty? ) (Edits!) 01:29, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. These are not encyclopedic in any way. Just upload the images you use on the cards, not images that include all of the fake technical information you create for them. They are good pictures, but none of it is fact created by either Mainframe, Hasbro, or the other companies that have produced or been involved with the Transformers franchise. Ryulong 16:33, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- Again, do not use the Tech Specs. If you are using them for purposes as an image to show the character, please crop the image as to only show the image. Do not add the fan-made tech specs. Ryulong 22:25, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

DO NOT USE THIS CATEGORY FOR YOUR FANCRUFT. The category concerns something more important than a minor subline of Transformers. ' (Feeling chatty? ) (Edits!) 02:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- I created a new category for Category:Pretenders (Transformers), thanks. user:Mathewignash
[edit] Links in headers
Noticed you've been doing this a bit lately - haven't rv'd them myself, but I figured I ought to let you know that the Manual of Style says it's a no-no. I've been guilty of violating it a few times myself, and I'm tryin' not to lately. - Chris McFeely

[edit] License tagging for Image:Csranger.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Csranger.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Crosswise1.jpg
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Crosswise1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 11:32, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tags
Please do not remove informational tags on articles. They are there to remind editors to include references and to cite the approproiate sources. Thanks. --Madchester 20:18, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Please do not remove maintenance notices from pages unless the required changes have been made. If you are uncertain whether the page requires further work, or if you disagree with the notice, please discuss these issues on the page's talk page before removing the notice from the page. These notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of a page. Thank you.
Again, please do not remove article tags. Thanks. Further removal can result in a block. --Madchester 23:42, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ransack
Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Ransack, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at Talk:Ransack. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
Again, please do not remove tags on articles placed by other editors. This can be seen as vandalism and can result in a block. Also, please assume good faith when dealing with other editors. Calling out other users as "morons" is not acceptable behaviour. Thanks. --Madchester 20:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] June 2006
You have been blocked from editing for violating Wikipedia policy against constant removal of maintenance and prod tags. To contest this block, please reply here on your talk page by adding the text {{unblock}} along with the reason you believe the block is unjustified, or email the blocking administrator or any administrator from this list. Note to sysops: Unblocking yourself should almost never be done. If you disagree with the block, contact another administrator.
{{unblock|I did remove the maintenance tag on the [[Ransack]] page and put in thr talk why I thought it shouldn't be deleted. Where do I go to talk about the pages' possiblke deletion then? Does someone else remove the tag after a while? What is the proper amount of time? As for the maintenance note, I'll leave it there, but I'll still state my reason why I think the article is fine. Is that acceptable?}}
To quote your first edit summary "(rv - removed moron addition - Ransace is the name of several characters - one Insecticon and several Decepticons", please see the policies for no personal attacks and civility. --pgk(talk) 16:46, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Regarding the removal of the {{unsourced}} tags wikipedia relies articles to be cited from reliable sources and does not permit original research. Someone watching the show and writing about it or reading a box is totally inadequate. --pgk(talk) 16:50, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Talk page comments and warnings
This is your last warning. Removing warnings from your talk page is c-onsidered vandalism. You will be blocked from editing Wikipedia and your talk page will be protected from editing if you do it again.
Please stop removing comments and warnings from your talk page. Thanks. --Madchester 18:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- I can't even remove a warning tag about an image having no copyright info, where the image has now been fixed? I was just trying to save space once the issue was closed. Sorry user:mathewignash - 6-22-06
- The warning was a bit harsh but it is correct. The only way to remove stuff from a talk page is to archive it. See Wikipedia:How to archive a talk page. Cheers! Sasquatch t|c 04:55, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Copyrights
DO NOT USE FULL TECH SPEC/BIO TEXT! That is copyrighted work, and Wikipedia:Copyright#Using copyrighted work from others expressely forbids that. No, that much does not fall under fair use. At all. Please remove all Tech Spec/Bio text, or I will be forced to list all of the offending articles on Wikipedia:Copyright problems and report you. ' (Feeling chatty? ) (Edits!) 05:50, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cheetor
Any particular reason you reverted my edits? RedNitrogen 18:58, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, that makes a little more sense, but I think you are a bit confused. I am the one who attributed it to both episodes. You reverted it BACK to just part 2, which is wrong. As for the other paragraph I deleted, it really needs to either go or be reworked. Nothing except the first sentence is even about Cheetor, and that sentence itself is an extremely vague theme that occurs throughout Season 3, not just in a single episode. I'm not saying that the part about Cheetor isn't important, but the way it stands now makes no sense. It is not an article about Rattrap or Dinobot.

[edit] Arcee
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the Arcee article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! --Madchester 22:36, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- The picture I added are picture of Botcon Arcee is from a comic book I own, and it is copyright tagged as a comic panel. Nothing wrong there. The other is the promotional picture of the toy by the maker of the toy. user:mathewignash

[edit] Personal attacks
Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. --Madchester 00:05, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Transformers articles
I believe there was discussion regarding various Transformers articles at Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion. In the case of Ransack (Transformers), the article was deleted by User:Madchester on the grounds that it was a recreation of a previously-deleted article Ransack which had gone through the Wikipedia:Proposed deletion process. Such articles can be deleted at any time unless they are substantially different than what was deleted before. If you aren't doing so, it's always a good idea to add articles you create to your Watchlist so that you can be made aware of things like WP:PROD and WP:AFD nomination. 23skidoo 13:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] Beast Wars Episode Synopsis
Please note its nothing against you personally, its just it does make the articles look incredibly cumbersome. Its not a concise summary of that character if you know what I mean. The way Optimus Primal and Megatron look is probably best - just listing the most important events in that characters season without listing massive episode synopses that have little to do with the actual character. That said, a page for episode synopses is a great idea. Regards. SMegatron 08:03, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Tried it for Equal Measures and Chain of Command. But they still need a lot of work. SMegatron 10:58, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Transformer info in a fraternity article????????
Please quit doing that, it doesnt belong there. It would be better to make a list of Transformer Characters article or a disambiguation page leading to the Omega Delta (Transformer character) rather than pluggging in whatever fan trivia that name brought to your head. It'll better to make another article than to mix it in with another article that have nothing in common. Plus, the editors that maintain that article might get upset and black ball you. Anyway, I removed the bits you added, it'll be for the best. Mighty Ozymandias 23:45, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Hey, whats happening? I do not mean to be a jerk here, but putting the transformer trivia back on the Omega Delta article doesnt make things right. The problem still exist, even if you moved it to the bottom of the page. If it was a disambiguation page it wouldnt be a problem, however, it is not a disambiguation but an article to which your contributions are out of context.
- I mean, lets say i wanted to know more about transformers and did a wiki search and the Omega Delta fraternity came up because of what you added to the article. How would it benefit me to read an article about a fraternity if I wanted to do some research on transformers for my essay or article? Do you see how that would be a problem?
- So please, do not add it back but rather make a new article or create a disambiguation page. If you do not know how then a little research goes a long way (or just ask). Mighty Ozymandias 07:08, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Never add text you copied from another website without explicit permission from that website. You must immediately remove all the text that you have copied. If you continue to add copyrighted text, you will be blocked from editing. —Centrx→talk • 18:42, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
I'll look, but I'm not sure of which article you are talking about, but I will remove and unwanted text. I can't remove anything until you unblock me though.user:mathewignash
- There are several, probably all of them. Hot Rod (Transformers) and Scourge (Transformers) are two I noticed with substantial parts. Really, the larger problem is that none of these articles are written like encyclopedia articles. A lot of them don't even have complete sentences and many have no links. Eventually they will be deleted if this is not corrected. Wikipedia is not a game guide, and these pages need to be coherent encyclopedia articles. —Centrx→talk • 02:56, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Merely changing the obvious indicators of copyright infringement does not change the fact that it is a copyright infringement. If you do not re-write the articles that you started, in encyclopedic, wikified form, without any text copied from other authors, they will have to be deleted or reverted back to before you edited them. —Centrx→talk • 22:50, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Cswindcharger.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Cswindcharger.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.
Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 01:55, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use
[edit] Image:Mirage-universesp.jpg
This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:Mirage-universesp.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a free image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Optimus-archives.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Optimus-archives.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 20:08, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sentinel Maximus
Hey Mat. I noticed on the Sentinel Maximus page that you listed the Cybertron Collector's comic as an IDW comic. Are you sure? I don't mean to sound patronizing, but I was always under the impression that Fun Publications produced it through the Collector's club comic. Anyway, best regards.SMegatron 12:55, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Fair enough. Sorry to be a pain but thats honestly the first Ive heard of it being IDW. Thanks for clearing that up though. Best regards.SMegatron 22:14, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Sunstorm-cybertron.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sunstorm-cybertron.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --Chowbok ☠ 05:24, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Capitlizing headers
Check under "Wording" here. It was something I was bad at doing myself - I think that's why all the Bumblebee headers were capitalized in the first place. :) - Chris McFeely 18:03, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Timelines
Hey there Mat. Just to let you know that seeing as you and Chris both think its a good idea Im going to move Timelines to the top of the BW Megatron page (and maybe do the same for Optimus Primal). Im also going to try to get an image of pre BW Megs as we see him in the comics. Best Regards.SMegatron 10:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
