[edit] WP:RM

If you wish to make a Requested Move please read: WP:RM#Steps for requesting a page move You have to complete all three steps if you want the page to be moved. I have added the talk page to the request you posted on WP:RM but you will have to do steps 2 and 3 --Philip Baird Shearer 21:10, 30 March 2006 (UTC) As proposer you do not need to put an opinion under Survey (although some do and it does no harm). But you do need to "PageName → NewName – {reason for move with signature} copied from the entry on the WP:RM page" copied your signature across from the WP:RM page (or signed the similar text - I did not check to see if it is a cut and past or something similar).

The reason for doing this is because after 5 days the request disappears from the WP:RM page and the template is removed. So your proposal becomes the archive on the talk page of the requested move. This is different from WP:AFD where they keep their own archive. We do it this way, because if a page is renamed again t the original talk page moves with it so keeping the archives of requested moves with the page. It is a simple solution to a potentially complicated problem. --Philip Baird Shearer 14:01, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great job on Abortion in South Africa

I enjoyed reading your article, Abortion in South Africa. I have to admit that when I clicked on it knowing it was a new page, I somewhat expected a biased account. You made the page very informative and presented it from a neutral point of view. Kudos! --Strangerer (Talk | Contribs) 20:18, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Leuce

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Wikipedia:Leuce, by Black Falcon, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Wikipedia:Leuce fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:

G6 (housekeeping). This seems to be an unused user sandbox created in the wrong namespace. Its only content is/has been a link to a subpage. The page has no incoming links and no significant page history.


To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Wikipedia:Leuce, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Wikipedia:Leuce itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 20:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cupertino Effect

Hi there. Just ... wow! I live there, as it happens, and had never heard of that before. Well done in pointing that out (and adding references, too :) ) - good work! - Alison ☺ 16:26, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Lanseria_international_airport.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Lanseria_international_airport.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 00:26, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Spam in Talk:OmegaT

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Talk:OmegaT, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Talk:OmegaT is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Talk:OmegaT, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Milansnakeisland.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Milansnakeisland.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 13:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Galadriel (band)

A tag has been placed on Galadriel (band), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
