After your last warning

Another two - to my revert at History - what do you say AIV sooner than later? SatuSuro 14:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Nudity

The gallery is not a good idea. I mean no offense, and your edits are well meaning, I have no doubt.

But, if you do that, then a few other people will add any nude image they find there, and the whole gallery will be deleted bases on the rationale (correct) that the article is not a collection of nude images, and images that do not illustrate specific content should be removed.

Transwikification

Wiktionary is not a dumping ground. It is a dictionary, that takes words and idioms. It does not take encyclopaedia articles with non-idiomatic titles. Please do not mark encyclopaedia articles for transwikification. Uncle G 01:02, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Your AIV report

Thank you for making a report in respect of User:Saminferno on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Removing and reporting vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them again to the AIV noticeboard. Thanks. Sandstein 07:44, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

My response is here. Robotman¹⁹⁷⁴ 08:05, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, administrators may block vandalism-only accounts. However, blocks are preventative, not punitive. If somebody receives a final warning (in this case, by you on 07:34, 11 February 2007) and does not vandalise afterwards, the blocking policy does not allow us to block them even though they have disregarded a previous warning. Again, thanks for your vandal-fighting work. Sandstein 17:19, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:On Tour MCMXCIII.png

Thanks for uploading Image:On Tour MCMXCIII.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:12, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Fixed now, you ever-vigilant bot! Robotman¹⁹⁷⁴ 00:11, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Genesis Discography

Sorry if my edits were overbearing. I'm new to this.

Here's my concern: If you've been to my site, you've seen the detail in the album release information I keep there. I also keep it regularly (as in daily) updated as I find new information through my research. I added the additional links at the various wiki album entries because there are errors and omissions in those listings. But I have enough to do to keep my own site current and edited to also think about trying to do the same on wikipedia.

Personally, I find the haphazard listings on wikipedia to be more damaging than helpful; someone sees the wikipedia entry thinks that's what the releases are and moves off, actually mis-informed rather than the reverse.

by the by... why is the Edsel release so prominently featured on the From Genesis To Revelation album entry? That it has a different track listing is insufficient cause, IMO, there are about 50 different re-releases of that album and most have a different track listing. I was going to contact you about deleting the Edsel entry altogether and perhaps just mention that there are numerous other re-releases with different track listings.Mpoloukhine 03:58, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I'd also add that one can arrive at the albums without having passed through the main site discography section or the discography entry, and be oblivious to the site link I have there. So no. I disagree with you. The links to my discography site at each album entry "Release" heading are useful and I think should remain. To delete it is to leave some albums with no knowledge of my site's resource and others with that AND misinformation. How is that helpful?Mpoloukhine 04:18, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

My response is here. Robotman¹⁹⁷⁴ 05:02, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. I disagree, but don't have the time. For instance, the majority of the albums have NO Release entry. Adding the heading and my link was at least a start in the direction you are saying I should take it. But like I said before and in my comments adding the link, that listing the releases I have on my site in the entry page would overwhelm the entry page. Plus... sorry wiki is nice, but no way I'm maintaining two sites of the same information AND relinquishing my copyrights on my site in doing so.

As far as the FGTR Edsel... look at my site. There are, I kid you not at least 40 if not 50 uniqe re-releases, and I'd say half of those are a different track listing in some way. I'm not going to write an article about how they all differ. Its hard enough just to list them accurately let alone discuss them

This is all why I felt a link was the simplest and most expedient way to add information to the wikipedia entries. Yes... in a wikiworld all the information would be in the entry. But is not a wikiworld.

I really think the Release sections of the first four albums should have the link embedded in the listing, and the rest of the ablums to have the added Release heading and the link. Its an increase in accurate information.. why is that a problem just because its an external link? Mpoloukhine 04:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, I don't know what else to say. I took the time to add the links to each album (almost, you started deleting before I was done) thinking that at least I was providing a source for information where there was none and where people would expect to see it. Because I don't have the time to re-create my entire site's information here on wiki means that the entries here remain without ANY information, even a link to my site? For some reason you feel the link is worse than no information at all? I guess I just don't get it.

Please. Restore the links, and at least there will be some direction to greater information. And if someday someone wants to take the time to expand the wiki album listings, great. But at least until then, the link will fill the void. Mpoloukhine 05:23, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

transport / greenland

Hi

I just added a minor detail to the greenland/transport section (international flights from Baltimore starting June 2007) & you reverted it, stating lack of source/verification. Which is definitely true - I offered no backup.

The cite is Greenland Air's website [1] which also now allows flight bookings from BWI (baltimore) to SFJ from any date from June 11 2007.

I'm kind of new to wikipedia editing, so I don't want to just re-edit the page (adding the cite this time) without checking if this is acceptable.

Regards, Pete

I hate to be a pedant, but I believe you are incorrect. "Harassment or personal attacks We have a clear policy on Wikipedia of no personal attacks, and harassing other contributors is not allowed. While some forms of harassment are also clear cases of vandalism, such as user page vandalism, or inserting a personal attack into an article, harassment in itself is not considered "vandalism" and should be handled differently."

Hi, DPMaster here. I was just curious. In my "tit torture" piece, you "removed merged articles." I saw the reference was to the template, but I can't figure out what you did.

Hi Robotman, I see that you have removed the information I've added to the "Pattern Recognition", "Statistical Classification" and "Artificial Intelligence" pages.

My website is now updated, go and take a look. I'm sure after you visited it again you won't refer to it as spam anymore. I'm doing my PhD on the topic and I'm quite sure all the information is correct and of high quality..

Please feel free to reply if you're unsatisfied with anything...

Hi Robotman,

Thank you for your advise.. I know that the java applet is a big security risk for users, but the applet is really the only way that I can make classification really easy for anyone. I considered running a python impementation or any other implementation on my server but due to the computational complexity of the algorithms this will cause my server to crash if the users become more.

Is there anything that you can propose that will make the users feel more comfortable?

An about the references, I admit I was a bit lazy, but that's how it always goes isn't it :-)

Hi Robotman,

I will surely do that if they remove my link again. I have changed my site so that the applet is not on my index page. Thus the users won't need to load the applet (an risk security) to view my site. If they want to use my applet, they can link from the index page..

However, if that's the case, the nickname shouldn't be mentioned in his "Early Life" section before he ever takes up the cornet, so I made a slightly different edit.

Genesis: Six Of The Best

Hi,

The only reason I attempted (new to this) to merge the 'Six of the Best' entry into the Genesis page was because no one had discussed the merger since it was proposed back in September 2006 and I was the only one with a post in favour of moving it.

With this new info will you now move it back or at least put a link in the Genesis page to the Six Of The Best page as it is an important part of the Genesis legend.

I'm glad there is someone taking an interest in monitoring edits and I hope I will prove to be a good contributor to Wiki (lots of citations) and don't want to break any rules. I've edited the Brad Delp page today so feel free to check this as well.

Talk:Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings

You do realize that the section the IP user was removing is completely inappropriate for a Wikipedia talk page, right? It was a discussion about someone looking for a game guide so that he or she may play the game. That is not the point of Wikipedia talk pages. The point of them is to make improvements for the articles. So you just spent 2 hours reverting someone and, basically, baiting him into a block over what? Metros232 10:46, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

My edit is not vandalism but rather an accurate change based on my experiences - and most assuredly the experiences of others - with the game.

Please take the time to explain why you a reverting/edit warring with the IP over their contributions. Simply throwing wiki-jargon like "OR" at them isn't helpful (neither is edit warring). You too are close to violating the three-revert rule, so try something constructive and communicate with them. John Reaves (talk) 23:07, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

My response is here. Robotman¹⁹⁷⁴ 03:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm just pointing out that the other user has a right to remove warnings too and that communication is much better than warring. Sometimes a boilerplate template message doesn't have the same effect as a personal note. John Reaves (talk) 03:28, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Of course unsourced material can be removed, I'm just encouraging more communication. John Reaves (talk) 03:44, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

John makes some good points. Invalid warnings can be removed. Removal of valid warnings, well there's some disagreement there, but the written policy is that it's "frowned" upon and to me removal thereof looks suspicious. Anyway, some of the anon's edits were okay, but some were IMHO vandalism, certainly non proper encyclopedic terminology (like "ass", "balls", etc) and those could be removed without questions. If you get into an edit war, you also could be blocked. Try to use the talk page and if the other party violates 3RR (ie, a 4th revert), report to WP:ANI/3RR. Rlevse 09:56, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Armitage III.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Armitage III.png. 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 (talk) 06:51, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:N.U.D.E.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:N.U.D.E.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Armitage III.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Armitage III.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 21:32, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Image:Face for RealDoll FaceX system.jpg

Hi, you have uploaded the picture and given it a GFDL license. But who created the picture? Do they agree with the license? And how can we know this? I am trying to move all the sex toy pictures onto the Commons and if I moved this picture it would just get deleted. --Simon Speed (talk) 17:27, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Face for RealDoll FaceX system.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Face for RealDoll FaceX system.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, 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: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 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 00:56, 17 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Simon Speed (talk) 00:56, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

I noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.

I intend to revise those articles following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles.

Thank you.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:11, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Nova BanzaiBaby01.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Nova BanzaiBaby01.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 10:22, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
