Image tagging for Image:200px-Fungi in Borneo.jpgThanks for uploading Image:200px-Fungi in Borneo.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well. For more information on using images, see the following pages: This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC) Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Spirilla, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at Talk:Spirilla. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. You might consider contributing to Spirillum, since singular titles are preferred. You might want to look at Wikipedia's content policies--Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:No original research--and look around at other articles to get an idea of the best way to write an article here (so it won't be accused of being a school paper).

The Fall of the Western EmpireA {{prod}} template has been added to the article The Fall of the Western Empire, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the GibbonismIn an edit summary to Reasons roman empire fell you say "I believe this should be combined with other article". So go ahead and do just that. Improve Decline of the Roman Empire and reltaed articles. Your text is still available here. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 22:32, 6 November 2007 (UTC) Steelers vs. dolphins
Speedy deletion of Burglars If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding Incorrect speedy deletion tagHi Ohmpandya, I removed your CSD tag from Folding door. Article length is not a valid criteria for speedy deletion. Please read our speedy deletion policy before tagging more articles. Many thanks, ~Eliz81(C) 18:11, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
 This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Air flow, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://oac.med.jhmi.edu/res_phys/Encyclopedia/AirFlow/AirFlow.HTML. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

Speedy deletion of Air flowIf the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding Adding Stub tagsHey, I've been seeing that your trying to help out by adding stub tags to articles. That's great, but I think you should know that you've been mistakingly adding them to articles that already have stub tags on them. [1] [2] Just a friendly notice, that's all. Happy editing!

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Geopolitically, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Geopolitics. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

Orphaned tagsHi Ohmpandya, you seem to have erronously tagged a few articles are "orphaned". Anthony Wood has over 50 and I've reverted the tagging on this one, In All Languages has half-a-dozen, Zoo Tycoon 2 has lots (I've reverted this one), Forbes Baronets has 10, Virginia Leng has lots (I've reverted this this one). I think you need to look back over today's edits as you've also speedy and prod tagged articles without giving an appropriate reason - Peripitus (Talk) 02:28, 10 December 2007 (UTC) unfinished articlesHi Ohmpandya, thanks for your question. One option is to create an article in your userspace, where you can work on it before making it part of the encyclopedia, and save your work for later. For example, User:Ohmpandya/sandbox might be a good place to work on it. However, if you think you've added all you can and enough so that it won't get deleted (see WP:CSD, WP:PROD, and WP:AFD for the three types of deletion and their criteria), you can create the article and mark it with the appropriate stub template. Hope this helps!! ~Eliz81(C) 01:58, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Frederick.jpgThank you for uploading Image:Frederick.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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 02:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC) This appears to be a fork of the existing article Timur. Were you not aware of the latter's existence? --Orange Mike | Talk 22:47, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Your recent editsHi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button Orphan tag on Eugene GreganHi, sorry if there's been a misunderstanding, but the only pages that link to Eugene Gregan are user talk pages. No other article links to it, and therefore it is an orphan, hence the tag. Would you mind explaining why you removed the tag? Thanks. Cricketgirl (talk) 16:10, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:235px-Map_of_Japan_with_highlight_on_39_Kochi_高知県.svg.png Thanks for uploading Image:235px-Map_of_Japan_with_highlight_on_39_Kochi_高知県.svg.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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 03:34, 14 December 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jusjih (talk) 03:34, 14 December 2007 (UTC) Use of expand templateHi there! I noticed you adding the {{expand}} tag to a few articles and wanted to mention that it's not necessary to place that tag on articles that already have a {{stub}} template (or a other stub template) at the bottom of the article. Just wanted to let you know. Kind regards, Rkitko (talk) 02:15, 18 December 2007 (UTC) Multiphase FlowI see 10 links for this article which ain't bad IMHO. Have reversed 'orphaned' status.

Mbisanz (talk) 06:49, 23 December 2007 (UTC) Re: Atlanta FalconsUm, I'm not sure why you left me that message, as not only was that merge tag on History of the Atlanta Falcons placed several months ago, but I've never even touched that page. Further, I actually don't think those pages should be merged, and since there appears to be no action to further that effort, I'm going to go ahead and remove the tag. --Highway99 (talk) 00:46, 24 December 2007 (UTC) Closing a table Re: 1953 Pats season article.Don't forget to add |} as the last line of your table to close it. When you forget to do this, it messes up everything underneath it. Also, there is no shame in adding the entire season in one go, and using the "show preview" button to check your progress. Edit often and save once is a better way to go... --Jayron32|talk|contribs 19:57, 26 December 2007 (UTC) User pageThanks! Well, I updated just a day or two after the updated list came out, and it went up a couple places because of people removing themselves from the list. jj137 ♠ 00:25, 30 December 2007 (UTC) WikiProject Boston Red Sox newsletter updated for December 30, 2007.

Your RfA - new questionsHi there, I'm just letting you know I and another user have left some optional questions on your RfA. It would be good if you answered these as they will help other editors decide whether to support you or not, and could help strengthen my support. Cheers! EJF (talk) 20:38, 30 December 2007 (UTC) Auto-Wiki BrowserCongratulations!! You have been approved to use Auto-Wiki Browser. Just download it from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=158332 And continue editing! —Preceding unsigned comment added by The Placebo Effect (talk • contribs) 22:34, 30 December 2007 (UTC) Re:RFAThanks for some suggestions for an admin. I have started work on articles for deletion, and sadly, the Auto-Wiki browser is not working. Thanks for your opinion! Ohmpandya (Talk) 00:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC) You're welcome. I really do think you'll make a fine admin in a few months. Keep up the good work! Happy New Year!! Malinaccier (talk) 01:29, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
LanguageHiya. First off, I just want you to know that I think you do have the right general mentality for adminship, and hopefully in the future will pass with flying colors. You asked about your English - which I'll admit, is a potentially hazardous reason for opposition. Here's an example of what I have trouble with - while keeping in mind that I still haven't had that first cup of coffee yet, so my own English may be somewhat groggy: Original Research will not be accepted, NPOV, and Verifiability. In blocking if an editor keeps adding info. that is unsourced, vandalized, etc., then he may be blocked. Now, granted, your message is intelligible - there's still hope yet! However, the structuring of the first sentence is rather confusing, and both are a bit too simplistic to really get the point across. RFA can be frustrating, no doubt - a lot of times it can seem like a bunch of people disinterestedly chanting "jump". Hang in there, maybe pick up a bit more experience, and in all likelihood, your answers next time will flow a lot more naturally. As the grand old British saying goes, "chin up!" --Badger Drink (talk) 13:46, 31 December 2007 (UTC) There you go. jj137 ♠ 17:16, 31 December 2007 (UTC) Your recent editsHi there.

Don't worry, you're not bothering me :) Also, I'm not sure what the problem with those users are, because they are all accounts created at completely separate times with very few or no edits. jj137 ♠ 18:45, 31 December 2007 (UTC) Admin coachingAlso, I saw your request for admin coaching.
