Nazanin

Just so you know, I'm actually fairly impressed with your first article. (I don't remember my first one, but I'm certain it wasn't as good as Nazanin). Please don't take our comments as a criticism of you or the article - we're just pointing out specific things that need to be tweaked a little. Overall I think most people who have seen it have a high opinion of the article. Wikipedia is, by it's very nature, a collaborative environment that is continuously evolving, so don't think it odd that people jumped in to comment before the article was "finished". --Bachrach44 22:49, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging for Image:Nazanin_large-medium.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Nazanin_large-medium.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:

Image Tagging Image:SAVENAZANINN2.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:SAVENAZANINN2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. -SCEhardT 22:25, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Nazanin Afshin-Jam.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Nazanin Afshin-Jam.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:34, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Stop Child Executions Campaign - recommending deletion

I have reviewed this article and, after having edited out a fair amount of extraneous material and also having spent several hours searching for additional reliable sources, have come to the conclusion that this article should be deleted. There is far too much confusion between this apparently private campaign and a similar one sponsored by Amnesty International. I can find absolutely no independent sources describing the organization of the campaign, whether it is a charity, what it does with donations received. It is unclear if the individuals who have supported a campaign of this name are supporting the one sponsored by Amnesty International or this separate one. Much of the article has nothing to do with the campaign itself. I am posting this to your talk page because I note that you do not edit very often, and the article may be deleted before you return. Once I complete the process to send this article for consideration to be deleted, I will post a link to this page for you to be able to read the discussion that comes forth. The article appears to be a labour of love for you, but I am sorry to say that it does not appear to me to meet the requirements to stay on Wikipedia at this time. Risker 05:07, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

Stop Child Executions Campaign

Stop Child Executions Campaign (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

This article appears to be about a non-notable campaign to prevent individual executions of children in Iran; however, Amnesty International did or does operate a campaign of the same name. There is no evidence that the two campaigns are directly related on researching various Amnesty International websites and databases, although the website for the campaign that is the subject of this article includes much information from the Amnesty International websites. After many hours of research, I have found no reliable sources that treat this campaign as the primary subject of the reference, and only one that describes it briefly as an avocation of the primary mover of this campaign. I could find no evidence that this campaign is a registered charity in any country; it does seek donations on the home page of the website, raising echoes of the issues that cropped up in relation to previous questionable charities. Risker 05:21, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete: I am assuming that this org isn't a part of the Amnesty International campaign (with the same name, as the nom stated). I cannot find any sources which would assert some notability either. 3 G-News hits, however they appear to be referencing the Amnesty International campaign. - Rjd0060 05:45, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep While Amnesty International is unquestionably in the forefront on human rights advocacy, there's no such thing as a monopoly on that cause. Nazanin Afshin-Jam is notable, particularly among neo-cons. The listed supporters might not be as well known, but you can't have "too many" advocates for human rights. The suggestion that this is a "bogus charity" raises the question of whether anyone has found any criticism of the group. Mandsford 13:32, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
  • I trust you are aware that there is indeed an article about Nazanin Afshin-Jam, and that the article includes discussion of her charitable and community service work? Risker 20:34, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
    • You trust correctly. Under that logic, perhaps we don't need to mention famine relief in Ethiopia, since it's discussed in Bono. Mandsford 18:49, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep: looks like a well writen article, and seems notable enoughZyMOS 06:42, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
• keep The campaign does not claim anywhere to be part of or affiliated with Amnesty International, although they cooperate closely with them. SCE is an independent volunteer based Camapign which has made substantial efforts in saving children facing executions. A simple search of its co-founder name (Nazanin Afshin-Jam) shows international coverage of her and the SCE campaign by all major media from CNN to FOX to BBC to Al Jezeera. Deletion of this page difinitely would be a loss of reference and research for a well publicized campaign. Amnesty International has no claim to be the only organization working for human rights LiveLife 12:27, 3 December 2007 (UTC) —Preceding

Image source problem with Image:Nazanin.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Nazanin.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.

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 23:10, 26 October 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 23:10, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Delara.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Delara.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. Computerjoe's talk 09:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:NazaninFatehi.jpg

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

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

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 20:03, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Good luck with work...

…on the Nazanin article sites. In particular, the sourcing needs to be much improved (as the Ninja editor did recently, at the NJ-A article). Remember, no information should be added that does not have a verifiable citation, where major newspapers and newsmagazines in English are best. Also, if you are plugged in to the Persian community in the US, consider contacting a university professor to do a formal translation of any Persian language sources that you wish to use (for the NF article); the reason that the key newspaper citation no longer appears in the NF article, is that the translation appears at a blog site entitled "save.nazanin" (if I recall). Such an advocacy site cannot be considered a reliable source of information for an important wikipedia article, so other, better sources must be found (where an unbiased university translation is one possibility). Look to the existing good citations in the NF or NA-J articles to see how to create a good citation. In particular, bare URLs are discouraged, because they get "broken" so quickly. Cheers, and best wishes, and our best hope for NF in Iran. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 06:57, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
