Welcome!
Hello Sagitox, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! jni 08:54, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
And an additional note: please never make blank articles and always use the "move" button to move pages, never just cut-and-paste the contents. That will cause extra work for others to merge the histories back together and adjust the redirects etc. Cheers, jni 08:54, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Australian Idol images
Thanks for uploading the image of Lee Harding. Do you know what license it falls under? When you upload an image, there should be a drop-down menu of all the licenses applicable to Wikipedia. I've removed the image from the Lee Harding article for the meantime. Hope you don't mind. Cnwb 22:17, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
- And the same for Emily Williams.jpg --Cnwb 22:22, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

- No problem. I thought I did add what it did fall under, as I did it for all the rest of the Idol's images, except for Laura which was already uploaded by someone. I'll upload it again and add the lincense.
Edit: I think I know why it didn't come up with a license. It was because I re-uploaded a new image, and added the license, but it didn't show up for some reason. So I've renamed the image and uploaded it again, and now it works.

[edit] Featured article for December 25th
I noticed that you have listed yourself as an atheist Wikipedian. You will probably be interested to know that Brian0918 has nominated Omnipotence paradox as the front page article for December 25th. You can vote on this matter here. The other suggestion being supported by others for that date is Christmas, although Raul654 has historically been against featuring articles on the same day as their anniversary/holiday.

[edit] drug free wikipedians

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Ricki Lee Coulter.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ricki Lee Coulter.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}}
.
Please signify the copyright information 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. Thank you.. This was tagged with a screenshot tag but looking at the source website from "The Age" it's not a screenshot, and no copyright information was available on the site regarding this image, so it is cause for concern.

- It is a screenshot, but was used on "The Age" website as an image. Just delete it then.. Sagitox 05:55, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Emily_Williams.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Emily_Williams.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read 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 images, please check 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, feel free to contact me. -- Carnildo 05:07, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Guy winner.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Guy winner.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 that provides substantially the same information. 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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, 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. Rossrs 09:40, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Age category
Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that your user page is in a specific year category. Per a recent user-category per deletion, all specific year categories are to be deleted. If you wish to continue using year categories, you have two options:
- Using an age group category, such as Category:Wikipedians in their 30s
- Using a decade category, such as Category:Wikipedians born in the 1970s.
If you wish, you may do both. Hopefully, this change in categorization will be quick and painless. Happy editing! --An automated message from MessedRobot 13:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
