[edit] Editing comments of others

I have reverted your recent edit of my comment on the Battlestar Galactica talk page. Please don't edit the comments of other Wikipedians. In this particular case, the link in my comment was supposed to point to the generic Gaelic page to indicate that no specific Gaelic was being referred to, and your edit changed the meaning of my comment. -- Scjessey 18:47, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kind of like football

You changed my buffalo into an American Bison! When people say and think buffalo around here they actually think of the African kind. And I'm vain enough to change it back. Bufflo 08:16, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy Deletes

If you see an article you think is for speedy deletion, be bold, put it out there just make sure you try to back it up. WP:SPEEDY is a link I go to alot to make sure I am nominating articles for speedy. Otherwise, they may just stagnate on the page and nothing will ever happen. Keep up the great wikipediaing. If you need help with anything, let me know! Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 20:07, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Undoing speedy delete?

You put a note on my Talk page about a speedy delete tagging of Susanne Lewis, but the page was gone before I saw that note. I would absolutely argue for the notability of Susanne Lewis and feel her notability was apparent from the article content. What do I do now? Is there anyway of retrieving the article text to re-start the article? Bondegezou 14:32, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

To expand on my comments above, Lewis meets WP:MUSIC notability criteria 4 and 5, probably 6 and maybe 3. The article content, as far as I remember it, had sufficient detail that 4 should have been apparent, at least to the extent that a speedy delete should not have been used.

[edit] steve.museum

Missvain, you did a speedy delete on the steve.museum page, "Speedy Delete per CSD G4 Missvain 05:30, 17 November 2006 (UTC)." The reason why I had so many deletions in the past is because this is the first page I ever made. The first four versions only had four sentences. They kept being deleted until someone told me to create the page somewhere else first, and then post. Which is what I did. But because of the history of multiple deletions no one looked at the page closely enough this time. Can you look again and see if you really want to delete it? This is not a website I am affiliated with, it's not advertising. steve.museum is something a lot of people I work with are talking about. Please reconsider. Thanks, --Sils660

  • I appreciate your concern, however, the website is NON-NOTABLE. It is not notable at this point in time. Until sources are more readily available and the company becomes notable, then it can be added in a proper wikipedia manner. Someone planted the seed for deletion, on A:FD, I noticed the lack of notability and posted the speedy delete. Someone took a look, agreed, and deleted it. I did not delete it. Regardless, I study museum studies and I am a history major, even though I am not familiar with it, most of my colleagues are not at this point, and this region. However, when it becomes more notable, please add it! Feel free to take a look at WP:NOTABLE Missvain 15:39, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Digital Opportunity Index (DOI) AfD

The "non-notable business" that you thought was behind the Digital Opportunity Index (DOI) article turns out to be the International Telecommunications Union, an agency of the UN, which is both notable and not a business. I've rewritten the article to make this more clear, and I've added information about the index to the ITU article, and I'm suggesting merge or keep. I invite you to reconsider your vote. cheers --Xtifr tälk 11:27, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] steve.museum

we need to do a deletion review on the recent speedy of steve museum. the content is clearly notable in the field of museum studies, museum informatices and museology. we should invite people who actually are familiar with steve.museum to comment. it has made quite a splash in those fields. --Buridan 12:28, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I see your concern, but, this is not a notable business/website at this point. Perhaps when notability forms, or better sources are found steve.museum can be added to Wiki. Any concerns I would bring it up on AF:D also Missvain 15:35, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion tags

I removed your speedy deletion tag on Larry Damore, as the context is very clear. I also removed another one on Long Shot Hero, where A7 didn't apply because the article clearly talked about touring, releasing actual CDs, et cetera, definitely claiming significance or importance (note that A7 and guidelines like WP:MUSIC aren't the same thing). I just wanted to direct you to WP:CSD where you can read more about the specific criteria in depth: I think you've been a little confused so far. Mangojuicetalk 18:47, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Across Indiana

An article that you have been involved in editing, Across Indiana, has been listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Across Indiana. Please look there to see why this is, if you are interested in whether it should be deleted. Thank you. --Tubezone 05:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC) Tubezone 05:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Northern Beaches Christian School

Why did you delete this article, and why do you believe it was intended to promote a company, product, or service? I don't even remember creating it, and I certainly wouldn't have intended to promote the School. I have no association with the school, and can only guess that I might have created the page to fill out a link on another article. -Dalziel 86 01:54, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Amazulu.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 10:32, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Classixnouveaupromo.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Classixnouveaupromo.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:59, 7 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 10:59, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
