Hello Grunherz, welcome to Wikipedia.

You might find these links helpful: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

  • You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
  • You can find lots more information, including open tasks and daily tips, at the community portal.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp as well.
  • Before saving a page, it's a good idea to use the Show preview button to review your edits. Also, consider writing a summary for each edit.

Again, welcome! Chris Roy 00:31, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)

B-152

Hi Grunherz! I like your image '''Image:Baade-152-ZYA B.png'''. I would like to use it in the swedish article about the aircraft. Would it be possible for you to upload it on Commons, so the rest of the wikiworld can use it too? Riggwelter 20:30, 16 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Mohawk Airlines Flight 40

edit

Hi Grunherz, can you check out the discussion at Talk:Mohawk Airlines Flight 40? I think you put in the bit at Mohawk Airlines about Flight 40's part being installed backwards so your source/citation for that would be a big help... Cheers, Ian Rose 06:12, 14 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

This looks like something you have drawn on a computer. Do you have the source (vector graphic) and would you like to share it? Then it would be easier to edit, and you would have mory quality. --80.63.213.182 13:59, 7 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Possibly unfree Image:Allegheny N1136J.png

edit
An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Allegheny N1136J.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

I created the image myself. I have altered the rights tag and removed the tag you added. Grunherz 15:27, 10 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

your uploaded Image:Ec121.jpg

Heads up: [1] and [2]. User:Mecu has tagged an image from the article Operation Igloo White for deletion, because of not having a source. I looked at related articles, many of those pictures have no source listed either, even though they do have licensing as PD-USGOV Mil. Thought I'd give you a heads up, so as to maybe get a source listed, before the pics get tagged by someone else.--Vidkun 15:51, 19 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Poststar logo.png

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Poststar logo.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:06, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Firefox down.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Firefox down.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -MBK004 22:22, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Hms chaser.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Hms chaser.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, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:29, 6 January 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 22:29, 6 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Notification of automated file description generation

edit

Your upload of File:B17g happy warrior.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
