Notability of Joseph C. Sebastianelli

A tag has been placed on Joseph C. Sebastianelli requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mvjs (talk) 11:44, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Mvjs (talk) 12:13, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Joseph Keating

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Joseph Keating, 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 should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Joseph Keating

I have nominated Joseph Keating, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joseph Keating. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? BradV 19:26, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

July 2008

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Joseph Keating. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. BradV 19:28, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joseph Keating. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. BradV 20:15, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Being Civil

I've added the following comment to the AfD for Joseph Keating:

Don't be so quick to have a go at someone else. Certainly in the UK Pittston would be considered a small town based largely on it's size as we don't incorporate cities the same way as in the US. I don't know if the proposer is based in the UK but don't be so quick to assume they are delibrately belittling either the city or its mayor. See WP:CIVIL.

In future can I suggets you assume good faith in words used and be aware that different countries will use words differently. Dpmuk (talk) 20:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Final Warning

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you remove Articles for deletion notices or comments from articles and Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Joseph Keating, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. BradV 17:31, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Avoca, Pennsylvania has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. ... discospinster _talk 23:29, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Commonwealth of Huntsylvania requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

AfD nomination of Atlanic City Tsunami

Please be advised that I have nominated Atlanic City Tsunami for Article for Deletion due to the fact that it is unencylopedic and does not meet the qualifications for a Wikipedia article. Simon Bar Sinister (talk) 05:50, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Atlanic City Tsunami

Firsly, you voted to "keep" at the articles talkpage. If you would like your vote to count you should vote at the Articles For Deletion discussion page (it is linked in the afd box that is now placed on the article). Secondly, the idea for an article on this subject is a very good one. If I may offer a suggestion, I think you should start an article on the general idea of tsunami hitting the US. The source that you used for the article that you created would be a good basis for a new article on the overall risk to the United States. Indeed, maybe I missed it, but the source that you provided makes no mention of Atlantic City. If it would mention a specific risk to Atlantic City the article that you created should not be deleted. But if makes no mention of Atlantic City I cannot support its non-deletio. Therefore, I'm suggesting that you use the very same source for a more general article on the risk. If you would like me to help you, please let me know onmy talkpage. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 03:10, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

To Brewcrewer I would like to point out, that of all the articles that this user has created none of them are constructive or even encylopedic, In fact if you look in this discussion he was clearly warned three times to stop reposting previously deleted material, making disruptive edits/posts and removing AfD notices, clearly he is not interested in being a constructive Wikipedian so I don't see how you could vote for anything that he creates. Simon Bar Sinister (talk) 06:25, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Map_of_Pittston_Twp..png

Thanks for uploading File:Map_of_Pittston_Twp..png. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey (talk) 10:04, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Kings_college,_pa.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Kings_college,_pa.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. feydey (talk) 22:04, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Student center.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Student center.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Bigvernie (talk) 19:16, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Lwv pittston1.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Lwv pittston1.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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 02:20, 1 August 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 02:20, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:SD twin shaft 04-11-2010 E3DJ6MJ.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 05:44, 1 August 2010 (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. Salavat (talk) 05:44, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Michael A. Lombardo

The article Michael A. Lombardo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

non-notable politician; no significant 3rd party sources that discuss the subject; fails WP:POLITICIAN

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Tassedethe (talk) 20:58, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Edits discussion

You are invited to join the discussion at WT:MILHIST#War on Terror - Mali. RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 12:22, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to War on Terror does not have an edit summary. Additionally, no edit summary was used when editing the Operation Enduring Freedom – Trans Sahara. Moreover, the re-addition of content, even with reliable source reference, goes against consensus as is indicated at that discussion that you were invited to at WT:MILHIST#War on Terror - Mali. Moreover, re-addition of content without discussion can be seen as violating WP:BRD, and maybe beginning an edit war. Please join the conversation.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 23:45, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
