[edit] Source for Nanoscope image

You uploaded an image [1] for use in the nanoscope article. The source of the article is www.ils.ued.ac.jp/~dima/nanoscope.pdf, which is now a dead link. Is the original article your own work? If not, do you have permission from the author to publish it here? eaolson 15:16, 28 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] License tagging for Image:Surugabay1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Surugabay1.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.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 12:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thin Disk Laser article

Hey! Just wanted to say nice job on the disk laser article! --Patrick Berry 15:38, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Applied physics B

A tag has been placed on Applied physics B, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on Talk:Applied physics B. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Vox Rationis 03:02, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I have dealt with the issue by rewriting the article (& combining A & B). You are perfectly correct that scientific journal articles should never be deleted, and there are a number of editors who will support this view very strongly--and so far, very successfully. But this requires the articles to be of a uniformly consistent standard in the first place to avoid attracting attention from those who do not understand. I've made a temporary fix, and I or others will upgrade further.

I hope you will add many such articles, but please examine the existing articles first to see what content is necessary. I'd be glad to help you as needed, and so would many of the editors of the physics articles. DGG 05:23, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Appreciate your help, DGG. Redirection is better. Thanks. 130.153.147.57 07:19, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suruga Bay

Obviously, that photo was removed because of the nude women in the picture. Suruga Bay is not a Nude beach, and so the picture was not representative of the article. If you have other photos of just the bay, then that would be great. Otherwise, the ukiyo-e print works just fine. MightyAtom 04:31, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Rock Climbing" image

Hi,

You uploaded an image to the "rock climbing" article that doesn't really seem pertinent (it's a police officer in Japan scrambling down some rocks). Can you explain why this shouldn't be deleted?

Thanks,

Hi Rob. This figure is important illustration, why the grade of a rock should coddespond to the grade and equipment of the climber. It is typical example of grade 3 rock. The police uniform shows the lack of equipment of the climber. He faces the cliff, ahowing the lack of skill. I consider to post it also at the Yosemite Decimal System article, but I have not yet similar pics of class 2, class 4 and class 5 rocks. What do other climbers think about? dima 12:33, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Smile

I've just been working on cleaning up and copyediting some of the articles you've worked on or created. You have added lots of good content to the encyclopedia! --Srleffler 06:49, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New category for optics journals

Since we now have quite a few articles on optics journals, I have created a new category for them: Category:Optics journals. Please put articles about optics journals in that category instead of in any of Category:Physics journals or Category:Engineering journals. The new category is a subcategory of both of those, as well as a subcategory of optics.--Srleffler 04:14, 20 March 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Redirect

I have put a speedy delete tag on your redirect page to your user page as there is no need for there to be a page that does this. --Samtheboy (t/c) 12:58, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Samtheboy. I had pressed the wrong key. dima 05:30, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violation?

Was the text in these articles OCRed, or typed in verbatim?

"All the scientific journals should have mirror at Wiki." - Is this the fair-use rationale for posting scientific journal articles into WP?

I'm not asserting copyvio, but I want this discussed. --Lexein 07:55, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, Lexein!
You indicated the confusung sentence.
I just checked meanings of word "mirror", and replaced it to "short article".
dima 05:28, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Lexein, now I understand better your question. I do not use the OCR machine intentionally. Does OCR occurs each time when a scanner makes a copact PDF file from printed pages? Anyway, I almost never type in verbatim. If you see more errors, let us correct them. dima 00:21, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
