[edit] Image tagging for Image:Hasa.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Hasa.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] License tagging for Image:Hasa2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Hasa2.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:

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Bader Bin Muhammad Bin Abdullah Bin Jalawi Al Saud, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Bader Bin Muhammad Bin Abdullah Bin Jalawi Al Saud. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. --Slgr@ndson (page - messages - contribs) 19:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not perform "cut and paste moves"

It appears you are new user to Wikipedia based on your move of Al-Hasa. If so, please look at Help:Moving a page. Instead of cutting and pasting the contents of a page, you should use the "move page" function. As Help:Moving a page states,

“ the "move page' function keeps the entire edit history of the page, before and after the move, in one place, as if the page were always named that way. So, you should never just move a page by cutting all the text out of one page, and pasting it into a new one; old revisions, notes, and attributions are much harder to keep track of if you do that. ”

I have returned the Al-Hasa page to it's original location but have kept the changes you made at the Al-Ahsa location. If you want to move it, a good way to proceed would be to request a move at Wikipedia:Requested moves.

Also, see below for my comments on other Hasa/Al-Ahsa issues. —  AjaxSmack  06:22, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Al-Hasa

I have posted this at Talk:Al-Hasa also.

[edit] Different contexts

As far as I can gather, there are three meanings of Al-Hasa/Al-Ahsa. One is the city of Hofuf (الهفوف). The second is the traditional region of Al-Hasa (الأحساء). The third is the current district or municipality of Al-Ahsa (محافظة الأحساء). These three senses of Al-Hasa should be kept in separate articles as their meanings and even locations are different. —  AjaxSmack  06:22, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Municipality, District, or what?

It seems that the Saudi Arabian Government has a Ministry of Municipalities and Rural Affairs (وزارة الشئون البلدية والقروية?)[1] but I don't know what municipality refers to there. It lists what it calls municipalities here.

Muhafazah (محافظة‎) is usually "governorate" in English but that is typically for countries where it is a first level subdivision (e.g. Egypt, Jordan, Yemen) but in Saudi Arabia, it is a second level division below the provinces (mintaqah منطقة‎).

Since the mintaqah are usually called provinces in English (see: Provinces of Saudi Arabia), the muhafazah should not be called provinces.

I have posted this at Talk:Al-Hasa. Please comment on it and whether you think 2 articles is appropriate. —  AjaxSmack  04:24, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Al-Hasa

All I actually did was put that request on WP:RM. You aren't actually suppose to put that on the article page, if you look here, you'll see that nothing is suppose to go on the article page, especially not a signature (see here). -Royalguard11(Talk·Desk·Review Me!) 22:55, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

The request for a page move of Al-Hasa is now at Talk:Al-Hasa. Go there to vote and, with no opposition, the page should be moved. —  AjaxSmack  01:48, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Previews

I would like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. However, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. —Mets501 (talk) 17:57, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Garahtowaitheer.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Garahtowaitheer.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. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 10:23, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please try and always use edit summaries

I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks!

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Siemens.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Siemens.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 10:40, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
