[edit] Albanian?
Hi - I'm guessing Wikipedia talk:Searching#alban skenderaj is written in Albanian and that it's meant to be an article about a pop singer (in which case it's completely misplaced). Any chance you could confirm this? Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 17:25, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Translation
Hello! A while ago you signed up to help translate articles from other Wikipedias at Wikipedia:Translators available.
This page has since become obsolete and has been replaced by two userbox templates.
If you are still interested in translating, you may sign up again by using one of the following userboxes on your userpage (while changing, of course, the codes according to the languages you speak):
{{Translator|es|Spanish}} {{Proofreader|fr|French}}
We hope to see you soon on Wikipedia:Translation!
[edit] No content in Category:Little Einsteins episodes
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Little Einsteins episodes, by HokieRNB, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Little Einsteins episodes has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Little Einsteins episodes, please affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page, and put a note on its talk page. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Category:Little Einsteins episodes 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. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:59, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Auckland Grammar School
Could you please write a stub http://sq.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland_Grammar_School - just a few sentences based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland Grammar School? Only 2-5 sentences enough. Please. ---- 06:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
- Done. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:24, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- Thankyou very much Ryangibsonstewart for your help! You are great. ---- 22:12, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Albanian proofreader/translator categories
I've gone ahead and corrected the boxes on your userpage to show the correct ISO 639 code for the Albanian language. The relevant categories are now at Category:Translators sq-en and Category:Proofreaders sq-en. --- RockMFR 17:23, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. I wasn't quite sure how to do that, so I appreciate you taking care of that for me. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 06:11, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Image of Anthony Miner
Hi! While it may seem sensible that images with permission to be used on Wikipedia are allowed, our mission is to provide gratis content, and as such all images with such permission are deleted on sight. Could you please try to get Anthony to release the image under a free license such as the GFDL or CC-BY-SA? Thanks! east.718 at 23:58, January 20, 2008
- Just have him send an email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org specifying the license of his choice, then upload it make a note on the image page that permission has been sent to OTRS. east.718 at 00:07, January 21, 2008
[edit] AfD nomination of Anthony Miner
An editor has nominated Anthony Miner, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anthony Miner and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 02:30, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
- With respect to your question in the AfD, how to go about nominating an article for restoration: If and once things change with respect to sources, you can create a new draft in your user space or ask me or any other administrator to restore the article there. If that is accepted, you can work on it and it can then either be moved back to mainspace or discussed further at deletion review. If you directly create the article in wikispace, it is possible that the article gets speedily deleted, so you should do so only in case of very substantial coverage or new documented awards. --Tikiwont (talk) 11:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the information. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:40, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Our Big Huge Adventure.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Our Big Huge Adventure.jpg. 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) 14:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
