Well, never to late to give a formal reception, eh? ;-) Yes, I live in Riyadh currently. Life is good but dull here, and, as you can see from my userboxes, Internet still sucks here. I still have two more months in this side of the world, since I'm heading back to Canada this summer. Hopefully, I'll see you around, Afif. Don't hesitate to drop by whenever you need any help. All the best, Anas talk? 17:04, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Adil3.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Adil3.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. 14:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Adil6.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Adil6.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] Commercial use of Image:Mina official logo.JPG

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Mina official logo.JPG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Mina official logo.JPG is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Mina official logo.JPG, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 13:52, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joyce Gemayel

Hello. I noted you left a number of speedy delete templates on Talk:Joyce Gemayel. I removed them for a number of reasons. Firstly, you should tag the article, not the talkpage with these templates. Secondly, you did it in triplicate. Finally, that particular template isn't appropriate. The article is not simply promoting her, it does describe the reason for her notability, therefore its not suitable for speedy deletion.

That said, her notability isn't entirely convincing to me either. I should explain I created the article, but did so to resolve another acrimonious dispute over her listing at List of Lebanese people. The rationale was by creating the article, it could then be decided by the community whether it should be kept or not on notability grounds. If it was deleted, it should be removed from the list also, if it is kept, it should remain on the list. So, since you are querying her notability, please feel free to list it at WP:AfD. If you don't know how to do this, or need help, let me know and I can do it for you. Rockpocket 21:05, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Ok. I've listed it for you at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joyce Gemayel. You should make your opinion known by expressing keep or delete followed by your reasoning. Make sure you read WP:BIO so that the reason for your opinion is within the criteria we use for notability. Rockpocket 21:36, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Tony Cornford

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Tony Cornford, by Senordingdong, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Tony Cornford seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Tony Cornford, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Tony Cornford itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inquiry

I deleted the article because the importance of its subject was not asserted. The only info you included in the article was that Tony Cornford is a senior lecturer in Information Systems at the London School of Economics. This is not enough. You can check this notability guideline for academics. Hope that helps. Regards, --Carioca 20:45, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
