Redirect

When you created Electronics simulation, Electronics circuit simulation, Electronics circuit simulator and Electronics lab simulation which was the version which you expected people to edit? Please read this moan and take it to heart.-- RHaworth 09:12, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

'sorry about that. I had intended for Electronics circuit simulation to be the version that people would edit. I read this moan and it was very helpful. I will definitely use this format in the future

Best regards,

Colin Simpson page

The article you wrote about Colin Simpson is missing several important parts. Why is there no mention of fact that he founded Logic Design? I would think a company with $500 million in sales would be noteworthy. Do you want me to add it?

KFullerton 16:09, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I had mentioned Logic Design in the original article but it was flagged as being an advertisement so I did some extensive editing. The article is still flagged as having peacock terms but I am hoping that this will be resolved as a result of the recent changes that I made.

CircuitLogix article

Hi Carl. A few more suggestions for the CircuitLogix article:

• it still sounds a bit biased in certain places, e.g.
  • "The graphic user interface is user-friendly ... "
  • "To date, over 150,000 students worldwide have downloaded the free version of CircuitLogix ..." (needs citation)
  • "...real world electronic devices and tools to enhance the user's comprehension of electronics ..."
  • "... contains a user-friendly GUI to make circuit design easier and more efficient."
• the sections are a bit too long
• the "Component library" section seems unnecessary

Image source problem with Image:CirLogix4.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:CirLogix4.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 01:07, 7 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Zginder ^{(talk) (Contrib)} 01:07, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Robot software

Hey Carl, I noticed you removed the cleanup tag on Robot software. I reintroduced it, because the article was actually pretty messy. (ie: I reverted some random Spanish phrase in the article, there was no heading, etc.) Since I noticed you removed it in the first place, I thought you might like to take a look at it. Cheers, Utopianfiat (talk) 20:54, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Poe38.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Poe38.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-enwikimedia.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 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-enwikimedia.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 uploaded by following this link. 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. MBisanz ^talk 06:14, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Electronics Technician distance education program, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 19:21, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
