You have tagged the above image, PD-self while infact it was a copy from this URL, [1]. I have tagged it copyvio. Please understand that the PD-self needs to be used only if the photo was taken by you. Copyright violations are taken very seriously on Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia:Image use policy before uploading images. Let me know if you have any questions. - Ganeshk (talk) 21:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Important

One person using two accounts is an offence in Wikipedia, exceptions notwithstanding. It is known as Sock puppetry. Users doing that may also be banned.

Happy that you have seen my appreciation at last. Unfortunately, we sparred over some edits. Lets us cooperate better with each other. Thanking You, Altruism^{To talk} 06:34, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good

Happy that you have stuck to one account. I advised in your best interest. I didn't want someone whose contributions, I appreciate to be blocked/banned by others. "Local cuisine" is fine by me. You can also copy your content (talk page & others) from Gpics and copy it into Gnt, if you want. You can also post a message on Gpics that you have permanently shifted to Gnt only. I can help you transfer content, redirects etc. if you want--Altruism^{To talk} 05:42, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Always sign at the end of your posts on talk pages, using 4 tildes (~) --Altruism^{To talk} 05:57, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Good work! Just curious, are you from Uppalapadu by any chance? --Altruism^{T a l k - Contribs.} 06:08, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citation templates

If you've not seen Wikipedia:Citation_templates, plz. do have a look. These templates aren't mandatory as well, they only structure the references, well. For web citations, which we mostly use, URL and Title are mandatory. The rest like publisher, work, accessdate etc. are optional. --Altruism^{T a l k - Contribs.} 07:23, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guntur temp.

No, I haven't seen any references on this matter. 46.6 C is just not the maximum temperature of Guntur. I was myself present on several days when the temperature crossed 48C, officially. --Altruism^{T a l k - Contribs.} 04:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Plz. see Guntur temp.--Altruism^{T a l k - Contribs.} 11:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright

A tag has been placed on Image:Gntnpt2.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

copyvio: No evidence of image being released by the copyright holder, this image has been directly copied from the URL:http://www.andhraports.com/nizampatnam.htm

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the 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. -- ¿Amar៛^{Talk to me/My edits}16:06, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Vandals are destroying articles related to Andhra Pradesh, Telugu language, Telugu script, Bhattiprolu and many other articles related to Telugu history. These people, about eight, have ganged up and are helping each other to prevent unbiased contributions. The history of South India and even that of the whole of India is being painted as that belonged to a linguistic group. History is being re-written on the basis of a couple of books written by parochial and localized historians and a couple of websites devoted to regional agenda and chauvanistic tendencies. A perusal of their contributions and citations will make my point obvious. I appeal to you to regularly visit Telugu and Andhra-relaated articles and prevent vandalism by these mischief makers.Kumarrao 07:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Gntsrst.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Gntsrst.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

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. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:57, 2 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Maxim_(talk) 13:57, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
