[edit] EU Turkey flag

Hi. You uploaded Image:EU Turkey emblem.gif but I haven't been able to find where you got this from. Could you please provide a source for it? Thanks. --G Rutter 14:09, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Ehm, actually I made it myself. I thought it might be interesting to design the European emblem with red color, a crescent, and the initials "EÜ" in Turkish (which mean EU of course). I thought it blended very well to the third section of the article, which was dealing with the debate on the matter. Will you consider changing it back to the previous? --Kensai 15:40, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks! I also tend to respond on both talk pages, as it's quicker and people can keep track of what's going on. I'm afraid that this probably comes under Wikipedia:No original research. The reason I found out that this image existed was becuase it was on the Main Page, presumably because someone thought it was an official emblem. I can understand what you mean on the page, but again, people might well think that it's the official or proposed flag. I'm afraid that we're really meant to report what's already out there, rather than create something that illustrates our point (no matter how well it does it). Therefore, I think that the image really should be deleted. I'm sorry about this, as it must have taken you a while, but it's just one of those things I'm afraid... --G Rutter 16:05, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Understood! Since this is a real article about real events/issues I agree. I never thought of the implications that my action might have had, especially the 'proposed flag' misunderstanding which could have been serious. Perhaps in a future trivial article debating about flag and vexillology matters this image finds its way. Thanks for clearing this up! --Kensai 17:08, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

No problem - thank you! Keep up the good work! --G Rutter 17:19, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Pavlos, Crown Prince of Greece, Plebiscite Year

Thanks for your interest in this article and for checking over the info presented! Regarding the plebiscite year; my understanding is that there was one in July 1973 held by the Colonels' junta, and then another in Dec 1974 held by Karamanlis' government. Both were on the question of abolishing the monarchy in favor of a republic. Both are referred to in the Pavlos, Crown Prince of Greece article, although for Dec 1974, the word referendum is used instead of plebiscite. (This is why I find it confusing to set a date for exactly when the monarchy was abolished and the republic began - 1973 or 1974?). So, I'd like to change the initial plebiscite date in the Pavlos article back to 1973 - but thought I'd run it by you first. Thanks, and glad someone has been looking over the recent additions to the article! LiniShu 19:28, 18 August 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Neuroarthistory

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Neuroarthistory, 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). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Logo sup.gif

Thank you for uploading Image:Logo sup.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 12:53, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
