editWindows Vista - DVD ripping.
editHello Briguychau, I saw that you'd created some Windows Vista userboxes, and thought I'd ask you my question on the OS. Do you know if Vista can rip DVDs and store them to be easily accessed by Windows Media Player? Thanks for any help, Jamie L.talk 23:12, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Airitaly.png)
editThanks for uploading Image:Airitaly.png. 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. BetacommandBot 20:43, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:User VistaHP
editA tag has been placed on Template:User VistaHP requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless</noinclude>).

editFile source problem with File:IPod Touch 3.0.png
editThanks for uploading File:IPod Touch 3.0.png. 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.
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 03:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shizhao (talk) 03:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
File:IPod Touch 3.0.png listed for deletion
editAn image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:IPod Touch 3.0.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

File permission problem with File:TI-Nspire Touchpad.JPG
editThanks for uploading File:TI-Nspire Touchpad.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.
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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. dave pape (talk) 01:58, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
- Also File:TI-Nspire CAS Touchpad.JPG. The permission e-mails should be forwarded to permissions-en as described above. Note however that the e-mail you quote only requests permission to use the images on Wikipedia, which is not sufficient to claim a general free license. You should probably use one of the template e-mails (also above) to ask the copyright owner to license them properly. --dave pape (talk) 02:03, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Air Canada Rouge
editHi and thanks for your edits at Air Canada Rouge. Unfortunately jetphotos.net is also not a reliable source for wikipedia articles. Generally the preferred source for airline fleet listings is the national aircraft register (as used in this case), or the airline's own information. Though the latter has is drawbacks, and both can be outdated, very few other sources are regarded as reliable. For Canadian airlines the benefit of having the independent regulatory database available publicly makes this by far the most authoritative source. If the aircraft in question has become legally registered to Air Canada Rouge and operated on their AOC, which is the basic premise for inclusion in the fleet table, then this will be reflected in the published source when it is next updated. While it may be personally frustrating, in the meantime we have to stick to what we can reliably verify (even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it). Also note that aircraft can be operated in the livery of a specific carrier, using their flight numbers and call sign, by another airline (usually referred to as a wet lease). In these circumstances the aircraft is operated under the AOC of the lessor, and this might be the case with this aircraft. If so, it does not qualify for inclusion in the wikipedia fleet table of that carrier (per WP:AIRLINES). Hope this makes sense, please do raise the issue at the article talk page if you wish to discuss further. Thanks! SempreVolando (talk) 14:55, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Hello. Thanks for your feedback. I've been following the Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge fleet information for years now. All of my sources, including AC's website (which is admittedly incorrect sometimes: the page itself currently shows future information that will be accurate by July at http://www.aircanada.com/en/about/fleet/fin.html) show that C-GHLA is operated by Air Canada Rouge. Furthermore, all flight tracking websites list the aircraft as operated by Rouge. For many years that I've been updating these two pages, the rationale for including aircraft in the specific fleets are based on the carrier that operates the aircraft and NOT the carrier it is registered to. I'm not sure when or why the reference on the page was changed to the Canadian aircraft registry, but it is quite obvious that the information is often out of date (e.g. C-FJTP). Also, wet Lease operations do NOT use the callsign of the carrier the aircraft is leased to (it uses the flight number only). In fact, you can consider all Air Canada Rouge aircraft to be wet leased to Air Canada as they do not operate using their flight numbers. The fact of the matter is, the aircraft is currently operated by Air Canada Rouge, using Air Canada Rouge configurations, on routes that Air Canada has designated as Air Canada Rouge routes using flight numbers designated for Air Canada Rouge, using radio callsigns of Air Canada Rouge. Therefore, there is no reason why the specific aircraft should not be listed on that page. Thank you. Briguychau (talk) 15:04, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

I'm trying to write a section about the refurbishment of the Rinkai Line's 70-000 series, from the corresponding section in Japanese. I've got something started at User:SlitherioFan2016/sandbox#70-000 series refurbishment, but I'm not really sure it's accurate.
Could you or someone you know help me out? Thanks --SlitherioFan2016 (Talk/Contribs) 09:22, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
I think that so far it looks correct, but perhaps sourcing those changes would be helpful. The original Japanese page isn't really sourced, and is not a web site either, so the information is more difficult to verify. Briguychau (talk) 05:46, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
