[edit] Additional tips

Here are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

[edit] Current open tasks

Here are some tasks you can do:


Good luck.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Sunofficial.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Sunofficial.JPG. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey 15:55, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Charlie Mine8.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Charlie Mine8.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. 17:06, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyrighted Pictures

please do not repost copyrighted pictures that have been deleted by IfD. see Wikipedia:Images_and_media_for_deletion/2006_August_26 Agathoclea 14:25, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:USA-E-Supreme-p176a.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:USA-E-Supreme-p176a.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. Jkelly 16:15, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your image uploads

Hi. Please stop uploading images until you have a thorough understanding of Wikipedia:Image use policy. Most images found on the web cannot be used here, and many of the images you have uploaded will be deleted. Please ask for assistance in determining proper sourcing and licensing information, and keep in mind that you should never upload a poorly-sourced image without proper authorship and copyright holder information, or upload an unfreely licensed image to replace a freely licensed one. If you continue to upload problematic images, this account may need to be blocked. Thanks for understanding. Jkelly 20:08, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Use the upload a new file feature, dont replace gneric named files - it is very rude. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 16:52, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, i wont repeat my self again, i will make a report next time. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 17:01, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Because its really rude to upload a file under a new name when theres an existing one as you can use teh "Upoload a new file feature.." - As when you upload a new file under a new name the old oen is "orpahned" and gets deleted about a week later, this leaves a redmark in the uploaders upload log, so always use "Upload a new version" on the image page (scroll down its below the file history.) thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 17:12, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Kikicohen.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Kikicohen.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] Lost episode list

Besides the boone/shannon flashback thing, on which nobody seems to agree with you, it has also been documented that there will be 16 more episodes, not 17. Quit reverting on this. --Milo H Minderbinder 23:31, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Look at the diff: [[1]]. Instead of making the change, you reverted, which also put back in two other mistakes. As for the Boone/Shannon issue, just read Talk:List of Lost episodes#Hearts and Minds where there are three people who disagree with you and none who agree. If there isn't consensus, don't make the change. Also, I should warn you that you've made three reverts to the article, if you make a fourth in a 24 hour period you will violate the three revert rule and can be blocked from editing. Details are at WP:3RR. And "what's your problem" isn't very civil. --Milo H Minderbinder 23:49, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
I'd encourage you to read Talk:List of Lost episodes#Hearts and Minds. Articles should only be edited by consensus, and I don't see a single person who agrees with you. --Milo H Minderbinder 17:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm not sure why you keep making that edit, it seems pretty futile since consensus disagrees with you and reverts it within minutes. --Milo H Minderbinder 13:32, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Katemoss22.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Katemoss22.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. Abu Badali 15:41, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Kristincharlotte.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Kristincharlotte.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:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 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. --Abu Badali 16:08, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Mischabartontrl2.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Mischabartontrl2.JPG. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 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 you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 00:26, 16 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mischabartontrl2.JPG

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Mischabartontrl2.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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

[edit] Image:Mischabartontrl2.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Mischabartontrl2.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:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 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. Yamla 00:26, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked for 24 hours for continuing to violate Wikipedia's image copyright and fair-use policies after numerous warnings. You are welcome to resume editing once the block expires but please do not upload any more images until you have fixed the problems with the images you have already uploaded. --Yamla 00:26, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Mischabartontrl.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mischabartontrl.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

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

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Julietlost.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Julietlost.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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 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. Yamla 02:32, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Katelost.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Katelost.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. -- Ned Scott 03:30, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Image:Season2-ana.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:Season2-ana.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

recreated deleted image, same file as Image:Anamich.jpg that was deleted in an IfD, Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion/2006 November 27#Image:Anamich.jpg

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ned Scott 03:36, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Boone/Shannon

Please don't revert war, discuss on the talk page. I started a thread at Talk:Characters of Lost#Flashback characters since you're not willing to for whatever reason. Please don't edit these without consensus. --Milo H Minderbinder 19:30, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. -- Wikipedical 20:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "minor" edits

Please don't mark stuff like this as minor. It's basically edit warring without comment and it's a stretch to call it a minor edit.--Isotope23 19:21, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

I've blocked you for 48 hours for edit warring. Please don't blindly revert changes and threaten to keep reverting as you did at List of Lost episodes. Use article talkpages to discuss changes.--Isotope23 14:30, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Vozas, your first action back is to continue the edit war at List of Lost episodes for which you were blocked. This is starting to look like you want to make a WP:POINT. --Milo H Minderbinder 23:18, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Rather than discuss changes, you've apparently decided to continue this slow moving edit war without any sort of comment or discussion ([2], [3]) As I said before, this is not helpful and the fact that you've returned to this behavior as soon as your previous block ended indicates to me that you are more interested in making a WP:POINT than you are in having a discussion to improve the entries in question. I've reblocked you for 1 week. Take this time to consider how best to have a worthwhile discussion with other editors about these articles when you return.--Isotope23 16:05, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Again, your first action upon returning from your prior block was to resume your edit war. You have now been blocked for one month. Any further evidence of this will probably result in a permanent block. Your violations of WP:POINT are clearly deliberate attempts to harm the Wikipedia and we will not tolerate this. --Yamla 17:13, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Coopromo.JPG

Thank you for uploading Image:Coopromo.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Yamla 17:10, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Kirsten cohen.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Kirsten cohen.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 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. —Bkell (talk) 05:48, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Block

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | unblock | contribs) asked to be unblocked, but an administrator or other user has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators or users can also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). This unblock request continues to be visible. Do not replace this message with another unblock request nor add another unblock request.

Request reason: ", watching the episode again, i now agree that the episode is boone centric. i will no longer continue the warring. sorry for the inconvenience. please unblock"


Decline reason: "Nope, the time to review your actions was before this latest block. No unblock - sorry for the inconvenience. --pgk 21:01, 25 March 2007 (UTC)"

This template should be removed when the block has expired, or after 2 days in the case of blocks of 1 week or longer.

Request reason: "although i still believe the question should be discussed instead of blocking me, when everyone knows that i'm not the only one who thinks that shannon is featured, i give up, since you obviously don't want to discuss. anyway, i'd still like to be an editor"


Decline reason: "I agree it should have been discussed. It was your choice to continue the edit war, and your choice which lead to this current block. action-consequence. --pgk 17:34, 26 March 2007 (UTC)"

This template should be removed when the block has expired, or after 2 days in the case of blocks of 1 week or longer.

It's ridiculous to insist that it wasn't discussed or that editors don't want to discuss, there have been multiple lengthy discussions on multiple pages, most recently at Talk:Characters of Lost#Flashback characters. Vozas, you obviously don't agree with the consensus that came from the discussion as evidenced by your ignoring of it and revert warring. But it's dishonest to insist that it wasn't discussed. --Minderbinder 17:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
