[edit] Edit Summary Request

I have noted 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 or even vandalizing. 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! -- Kukini 23:45, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Kukini,

I have started to add edit summaries. This page has been created quickly and so I have often skipped over this step since it should be obvious that all of the changes were added by the same person who was creating the Wikipedia page "on the fly". It is far easier to do it this way then to second-guess what the internal Wikipedia links will be called. I am sorry if this has created any confusion. I will try to remember to do this in future. Very often the Edit summary field appears to have been pre-filled (as in this case).

[edit] License tagging for Image:Venus of Dolni Vestonice.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Venus of Dolni Vestonice.png. 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:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:08, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear Wikipedia,

I was the author as well of the text from the Southall Studios website (as well as its primary web designer). Southall Studios was one of the earliest film studios in the United Kingdom. I haven't had a chance to visit Wikipedia for some time and was surprised and dismayed that all of the work I put into this page has been deleted. The page was built up over an extended period and it was destroyed and all the time it took to put together was entirely wasted. Thank you. I don't think I will be doing this again in the near future. I will stick to simple amendments of other people's pages, if that.

  • Hi...you might want to talk with User:Quadell, one of the admins that deleted that page. I don't personally see how it is a copyright infringement, but I have not studied it as did Quadell. Best, --Kukini 04:14, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jaye Griffiths

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Jaye Griffiths, 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 "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
