[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Speridian logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Speridian logo.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes 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 non-free media 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Please stay away from adding non-existing links in templates

Hi Balagopal, You added Arya Central School in the template of Topics related to Trivandrum. But the article of that school does not exists in wikipedia now. So, please dont add that school name in the template. If you are so particular about adding that school, then create an article on that school, and then add it in the template.

Since you are a new comer here, you may be unaware about these things. So, please note that, if your link appears in Red colour, that indicates that the page does not exists. Only the blue coloured links are the valid links to the existing articles.

So, once you create the article on Arya Central School, the red colour dissappears and will be seen in blue colour. To create the article, click on the red coloured link.

-Thank you. --Samaleks 19:17, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:TVM

Hi Bala, Sorry for the late reply. And Thanks for pointing out the vandalism in the page. -- Rajith Mohan (Talk to me..) 07:15, 3 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] RE: About adding a new sub menu

Hi Bala, The main tourist attractions in Thiruvananthapuram is already placed in the page : Thiruvananthapuram Tourist spots. That page is about the tourism in Thiruvananthapuram district, and a section talks about the tourist attractions in the city. You can update that page with more details (if any).

The link to that page is given in the See also section in Tvm page (Tourism in Thiruvananthapuram; Under Other topics). The Economy of Thiruvananthapuram article also holds a link to the tourist spots.

Moreover, we need to trim down the size of the Thiruvananthapuram article, by creating sub articles. This size reduction will increase readability. See Wikipedia:Article size.

[edit] License tagging for Image:Image-Aryalogo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Image-Aryalogo.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. 07:07, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Speridian Technologies

A tag has been placed on Speridian Technologies requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. Andante1980 09:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arya Central School

Hi,

I think administative details about the School management can be avoided from the article space. A infobox about the same would be just fine like → Loyola School. Hope this clears your grievance! Jisha (Talk) 10:39, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Speridian logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Speridian logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 20:48, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
