This page was made to demonstrate the magnificent work of the human mind. I would be grateful if anyone could add an open source image of a flint bracelet or armlet.--Ashashyou (talk) 06:28, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion issue
editDear all wikipedians, i think i am going to stop editing again on wikipedia, because the "voice tone" in many of the comments are aggressive. Perhaps it is a cultural issue, i thought English wikipedia was for all cultures but it seems i was wrong. Perhaps this explains the urge of some people to organize a workshop in Amman in April 2012 (postponed to unknown date) called "Middle Eastern Participation and Presence in Wikipedia" on its words:
"There are obvious gaps in access to the Internet, particularly the participation gap between those who have their say, and those whose voices are pushed to the sidelines. Despite the rapid increase in Internet access, there are indications that people in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region remain largely absent from websites and services that represent the region to the larger world."
Perhaps the loud, aggressive voice in some of the administrators on Wikipedia helps in the "the participation gap between those who have their say, and those whose voices are pushed to the sidelines".
I agologize again for any harm done, surely any person who reads the contributions would see the good intents (especially when metioning the original sources) of making people aware of this magnificent humanity heritage. The page is not less important than the many many many pages on other things to humanity. I thought wikipedia was for all humanity. Perhaps anyone could contribute to the article instead of just "nominating it for deletion" by adding a small tag on it. I do apologise again for the waste of your time and my time.
Hope wikipedia would develop to a more understanding community. --Ashashyou (talk) 13:50, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
- The reason for the speedy deletion notice was simply that it was a copyright violation. This was explained to you before you posted the above. Other edits have also found copyright violations in other edits of yours. I don't think this is the cultural issue you think it is, although I know different cultures have different attitudes to copyright. Dougweller (talk) 11:35, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
I removed the PROD. The article seems to need fixed if there are copyright issues, but the notability has not been called into question. --Nouniquenames (talk) 16:37, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
