Copyrighted images

edit

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your contributions. Please be aware that Wikipedia (and Wikimedia Commons) have very specific rules about using copyrighted images, and I ask you to read up on them at WP:NONFREE and related pages before you upload any more. I understand it was probably an honest mistake, but you uploaded copyrighted images to Commons as if you owned the copyright, which you do not. Also, I would not suggest changing images in articles without discussing it first, as images have usually been selected and agreed upon for particular reasons by the community contributing to the article. Thanks again.— TAnthonyTalk 21:14, 28 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Recent edit to Peter Dinklage

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Peter Dinklage, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The Musketeers

edit

Thank you for your initial cast table for The Musketeers, but per WP:TVCAST:

  • Cast tables [...] can be used as a visual representation of cast duration for multi-season programs but should not be used for programs with fewer than three seasons or where cast changes are minimal
  • A separate cast table for recurring cast can be included in articles listing characters and cast but should never be included in parent television series articles

Real or faked signatures?

edit

Hi, I notice in your contribs that you've been creating signatures of subjects of bio articles. Are these signatures authentic? The file description pages don't state where you got them from. I'm seeking admin opinion about whether they should be deleted as inauthentic (without disclosure of that fact), or if they are authentic, whether they should be displayed in such a public way, and whether they represent an invitation to fraud through the use of the signature in other circumstances. This might be a storm in a teacup, but I think it needs to be cleared up.

Thanks for your work, anyway.

Tony (talk) 12:59, 8 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hiya, the signatures are authentic, they were signed to be as autographs which I scanned in as image files, but if they could be used for fraud then by all means delete them. Thanks :)

Penpalthe (talk) 16:39, 9 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

There's a proposal here that you might want to participate in. At the very least, I believe you should annotate the file description pages, showing where you got the sigs from. Tony (talk) 09:01, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of Star Wars cast members, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Kevin Richardson and Larry Ward (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Ascension Church, Balham moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Ascension Church, Balham, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:01, 3 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Concern regarding Draft:Ascension Church, Balham

  Hello, Penpalthe. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Ascension Church, Balham, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Your draft article, Draft:Ascension Church, Balham

edit
 

Hello, Penpalthe. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ascension Church".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 03:02, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
