[edit] Regarding edits made during April 26, 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Pupster21 Talk To Me 19:11, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

I now see that your edit wasn't vandalism — you were removing a large chunk of duplicated material. My apologies for the misunderstanding — but it wouldn't have happened if you'd used an edit summary:


When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 19:18, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Author/Journalist & Reuters Correspondent Mohamud M. Afrah & Dir.Gen.Kornel Ahmad Xaaji Gacal

Articles about people are listed by the name and not by titles. I have moved them both. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 09:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I just found out that Mohamud M. Afrah was copied from here and Ahmad Xaaji Gacal was copied from here. Please do not copy information from other websites as it violates copyright laws. Take a few minutes and read Wikipedia:Copyrights. Be aware that continuing to post copyright material will lead to bloking. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 10:22, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] September 2007

Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Hawiye. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to blocking of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 13:29, 13 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Guuleed Faarax Jeex

A tag has been placed on Guuleed Faarax Jeex, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD A7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet 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 article 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Pigman 00:34, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Hintire

Hintire, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Hintire satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hintire and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Hintire during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Law & Disorder 06:57, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] December 2007

Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Abgaal. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Hiraab. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Statements such as "One of the most important and more and more powerful tribes" especially require attribution, as they appear to be non-neutral. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:47, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Caddoow.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Caddoow.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 10:06, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
