WP:A/R/C

edit

The issue of the sidebar on Cultural Judaism is not at all an issue for arbitration, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration. I'd suggest you remove the case, and if you think the navigation sidebar should not be there, you could simply remove it as well. If a dispute emerges, you could discuss it on the talk page of the article. If that does not resolve the dispute, please follow the remaining steps in Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. Let me know if you have any questions on this. –xenotalk 17:34, 5 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom (edit-conflicted with xeno above)

edit

Hi Heather! I think your ArbCom case here is not well considered. ArbCom is the last step of the dispute resolution process, not the first. I am certain that ArbCom will not accept this case now. There are many other steps you can take first - e.g. delete the side bar yourself (it's created by the template {{Judaism}}, but please read WP:BRD), discuss it on talk: Cultural Judaism, or initiate an WP:RfC.

I also think you are a bit hasty in condemning this sidebar. It is a standard template added to (nearly) all articles related to topics in Judaism. It also was in the article from the very first revision in the history, in 2006, so it has not been added recently by any means. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 17:43, 5 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Problems with upload of File:Sci logo.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Sci logo.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 15:09, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for uploading File:Sci logo.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:55, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply


Fair use rationale for File:Sci logo.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Sci logo.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will 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. Hammersoft (talk) 17:23, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • Hi Heather, thanks for your message. This time around the decline was not due to the reliability of the sources, but rather the notability of the foundation. See the guidelines on establishing notability for more information about this.
  • Sources here can perform two roles. One is to verify the information in an article, and the other is to prove that the subject of the article is "noteworthy" enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia. Unfortunately, your sources didn't really fulfil this latter role. What we need to see is reasonably in-depth coverage from an unaffiliated source, to prove that the foundation is a notable subject. See the golden rule. Obviously, primary sources aren't sufficient for this purpose as they are usually written by/for the subject.
  • If you can find any sources that might help prove the notability of the topic, feel free to add them and resubmit the article. We're generally looking for things like magazine or newspaper articles, and they can be online or printed. They must be reliable sources though, things like other Wikipedia articles, Youtube videos, Facebook pages etc. will not suffice.
  • I hope this clears things up a bit for you. Good luck, and if you any further questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. OohBunnies! (talk) 06:10, 5 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
