[edit] Image:WmGlasser.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:WmGlasser.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. --Chowbok ☠ 01:06, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] glover dna sequening

[edit] Archon X Prize

You recently changed the entry from "no more than one error in every 10,000 bases sequenced" to "no more than one error in every 100,000 bases sequenced". This is debatable as the competition guidelines from the [official website] apparently differ from the PDF you reference. As the PDF is dated November 2006 and is a revision (version 2.0), we may assume it to be the intended value. Bottom line- I'm not changing your entry, but I will monitor this.

[edit] Communicating with Wikipedians

Hi Frank, to send messages to other Wikipedians you simply add edits to their User\Talk pages. You shouldn't edit their actual user page. See Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines Clerks 16:06, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Other Images

Got your message. I deleted this sub-section because it is not relevant to the subject. I could go to any page in Wikipedia and search its title on Google, reporting the number of results in the article, but this would be unreasonable. This article is about the subject in particular, not about the number of hits it may return on a search engine. Overall, I thought it was a piece of information that didn't make the article any more informative. Thomasmallen 20:52, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:DrWmGlasser.jpg listed for deletion

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:DrWmGlasser.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 01:35, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Image:DrWmGlasser.jpg

When you uploaded this photograph, you tagged it with {{Permission from license selector}}. All images under this license are automatically tagged for deletion, since Wikipedia policy prohibits use of copyrighted imagery released under an exclusive permission to Wikipedia. The problem with such images is that the permission does not automatically extend to third parties, this is why all images must be released into the public domain, or under a free license (e.g. the GFDL, some Creative Commons licenses). If you have permission from the copyright owner to release this photograph under a valid free license, please forward it to permissions@wikipedia.org. Your request will be handled by the OTRS, and this image will be undeleted. Thanks, ˉˉanetode╦╩ 23:49, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

P.S. The relevant criterion was WP:CSD#I3, not I13. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 23:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Curriculum Associates

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Curriculum Associates, by Vegaswikian (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Curriculum Associates 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 Curriculum Associates, 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 that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it did not nominate Curriculum Associates 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 06:57, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Glover DNA sequencing

Could give me any journal publications and secondary sources that mention this "ZG Genetics" sequencing technique? I feel the section needs to limit itself to published and notable methods, and so I tried to use some sequencing review articles as a guide for notability. Madeleine ✉ ✍ 00:49, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pez maya

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Pez maya, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.nature.org/wherewework/northamerica/mexico/work/art8625.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 22:54, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
