[edit] Filipino Wikipedians

Hi, you were listed in the Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Philippines page as living in or being associated with Philippines. As part of the Wikipedia:User categorisation project, these lists are being replaced with user categories. If you would like to add yourself to the category that is replacing the page, please add [[Category:Filipino Wikipedians|{{subst:PAGENAME}}]] to your user page. Thanks. :) Coffee 03:29, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Philippines has been blanked to complete the transition to Category:Filipino Wikipedians (see Wikipedia:User categorisation for details). Coffee 08:58, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Replacing copyvio material

Hi. You replaced copyvio material in Philippine Military Academy without following the posted procedures when it was marked as a copyvio. Please do not change the main article page, but rather place any rewrite on the temp page as described on the copyright notice. You just create more work for administrators by not following the posted instructions. Thanks. RedWolf 02:32, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Ok, I'd do that next time. Thanks.


Thanks Circa 1900, though, for rescuing the PMA article. --Jondel 00:40, 11 November 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines

This is a portal like the Village pump for Philippine related articles and for Pinoy wikipeidians.--Jondel 00:42, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

I visit that everyday, however, can somebody put the Philippine portal link at the Philippines article?

[edit] Philipine Featured Articles

Please visit Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Featured articles and give your two centavos. Add your votes as well. Thanks =) --seav 14:04, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

José Rizal and Boracay, which you have voted for, have been selected for improvement by the Filipino Wikipedian community. Now we can start collaborating on improving these articles to Featured Article status. See Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Featured articles. =) --seav 22:48, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Hello! I'm afraid that I've had to remove the images from your User page; fair-use images can be used (within certain limits) in articles, but Wikipedia guidelines are that they should be kept off User pages (see Wikipedia:Fair use). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 19:55, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

That's all right. Circa 1900 02:26, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NCAA FAC

I must say, working with you on FAC has been my most positive FAC experience. Thanks for not being a troll, or argumentative, or hopelessly POV. Wikipedia needs more users like you, who understand that constructive criticism is a good thing, and not a call to arms. I hope the FAC passes, and I'll help rectify any other objections that might be raised during the nomination period. Thanks a lot. RyanGerbil10 02:23, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

I asked three experienced FA reviewers to help with the NCAA FAC, because the nomination is growing older and doesn't have many votes. I told them that you had the sourcing information, so if they ask for better sourcing, they're going to come to you, just a heads up. Thanks for your cooperation, RyanGerbil10 03:51, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads up and for the reviewers. It can't be improved if no one would review it, right? Again, thanks! Circa 1900 06:41, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Hey dude, where are you? I'd take care of the FAC if you don't mind. --Howard the Duck | talk, 02:13, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed Georgia Move

As a past participant in the discussion on how to handle the Georgia pages, I thought you might be interested to know that there's a new attempt to reach consensus on the matter being addressed at Talk:Georgia (country)#Requested_Move_-_July_2006. Please come by and share your thoughts to help form a consensus. --Vengeful Cynic 03:38, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

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

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Blazerslogo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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) 21:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:NC81Studio23.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NC81Studio23.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] Unspecified source for Image:LRTLine1.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:LRTLine1.gif. 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 {{Non-free fair use in|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. Nv8200p talk 04:48, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Can you please add some more detail on the reference material and tools used to create the image. Thanks -Nv8200p talk 13:30, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:PCU.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 15:14, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:JRU.jpg

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

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

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:LSGH.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:LSGH.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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:51, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL.

[edit] Featured List of the Day Experiment

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 00:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:NC81Studio23.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NC81Studio23.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) 22:27, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tagalog Wikipedia

Tagalog Wikipedia Campaign March 2008!

Tagalog Wikipedia is campaigning for your participation in writing, editing, assessing and translating articles!
The purpose of this campaign is to expand and improve articles at Tagalog Wikipedia. Your participation will be highly appreciated by the community.

There are over 16,000 articles to view, read, review, edit, and expand, so please visit the Wikipedia Café and the WikiProject Philippines at Tagalog Wikipedia to help out!

The campaign includes seeking your assistance in:

Or just anything you can do to help us just like what you are doing there at the English Wikipedia.

Thank you in advance and regards, Tagalog Wikipedia Community

Finally, Wikipedia is the 7th most visited site in the Philippines. Then why is it that the Tagalog Wikipedia, the Wikipedia in your own language remains unknown to most of the Filipinos? The mission of this campaign is to change that. Will you join us?

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Cardinallogo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cardinallogo.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
