[edit] RE: Pictures on Wikipedia Bahasa Melayu

Hi, nice to meet you, are you from Malaysia?
For those photos, I don't know whose photos are needed now, I need some time to explore around here and see whose photo is lacking. And there are many uploaders in the Malay Wikipedia are poor in licensing the photos.
And wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! --אדםוןד ואודס, King Edmund of the Woods (talk) 16:02, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Photos

Hi! First of all, you're right that I accidentally erased Samy Vellu. Thanks for pointing it out; I've gone and fixed my mistake. Second, those images were deleted because you uploaded them for non-commercial and educational use only - as these images are not "free as in freedom", they are generally deleted on sight. Please see the image use policy for more information. east.718 at 03:31, December 28, 2007

I am not sure what they would fall under; you should ask over at media copyright questions. east.718 at 22:59, December 28, 2007

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:MIC logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:MIC logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:MIC logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:MIC logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 19:37, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Invitiation to participate in talk page discussion

Hi there. Regarding your edits at Mahathir bin Mohamad, i would like to invite you to participate in discussion about that article in the talk (discussion) page at Talk:Mahathir bin Mohamad, so we can together help make a great article. You also can express what you feel about anything regarding that article. Regarding his Indian name, it is not a matter of whether Mahathir likes it or not. It is a matter of reliable source. Please read Wikipedia:Reliable source. A blog i believe is not a reliable source. If you could find a reliable source (news site, books, biographies, etc) that would be great! I could have simply written in a blog that Badawi's Chinese name is Xi Li Liu or something. Does that mean we all should be open minded and simply accept that Xi Li Liu is Badawi's chinese name? But to be honest and fair, many other things written in that article might not be accurate as well, which i am hoping to remove, or request for citation. kawaputra^torque 08:33, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] BN logo

Hey, ya, the logo is about to get deleted. I thought flags and logos are the same thing, thus are released into public domain. Quite embarassing for a law grad like me. :p. Anyway im from KK too, nice to know you. :-) ќמшמφטтгמ^torque 03:24, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
