  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at User talk:Sam Sailor, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (  or  ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. -- Sam Sailor Talk! 11:17, 22 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Request for page protection

Your user page is not and never has been protected. Please do not make frivolous requests and then do not compound the issue by replying to your own request posing as another user. Nthep (talk) 17:56, 23 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Hiphopprop.png

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Hiphopprop.png, which you've attributed to http://james-camerons-avatar.wikia.com/wiki/File:Scorpion.png. 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 {{OTRS 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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Resources Development Administration (RDA), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Na'vi. 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.

You have to give a good reason for reverting my edits. They are properly sourced, and I removed some of the incorrect information in the page. Hzh (talk) 17:15, 30 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Neutrality on description

edit

Why the present queen of Splitsvilla Karishma Talwar is referred as "selfish queen"? I thought the idea of this page was to maintain neutrality. Please make this confusion clear. DPaulm (talk) 09:30, 4 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Sources in section headers?

edit

Not sure why you placed references in section headers over at Resources Development Administration (RDA), but I've removed them. Sources should be placed after the statements they are validating. DonIago (talk) 19:41, 6 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Resources Development Administration

edit

Regarding Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Resources Development Administration (RDA), I have changed my preference from keeping the article to userfying the article. This means that the article will be moved out of the mainspace. I changed my preference because I would like time to put together the sources I identified in the discussion, plus additional sources that I spotted in poking around search results. Would you be willing to agree to userfying as well, and stating so in the AfD? We can work together to overhaul the article so that it is a good write-up of the fictional organization in a real-world context. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:26, 9 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

If that's what's best for the article then so be it. Ill mention it at the discussion page. Blisspop (talk) 08:15, 10 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hello! User:Erik/workspace/Resources Development Administration is where the page is now. My initial thoughts are that we should have one key section about its fictional appearance where we describe it with a real-world perspective. That way readers understand its role in the film (and now I think of it, certainly the sequels when they come out). Unfortunately, I do not think a section like "RDA military vehicles" would fit. None of the sources I found talk about anything like that. Most sources pretty much make historical comparisons of the organizations as well as cultural-societal assessments, so the article will have to focus on that. I think what we can do after the key descriptive section is to then have another section that briefly works through each characteristic. For example, we would mention how the film depicts its origins, then use the sources to show how different commentators compare it to similar modern-day companies, e.g., being capitalist. When we get to Pandora, we can then talk about how its actions relate to colonization, and so forth. Let me know what your thoughts are!

Turns out this user was a sock, so I wouldn't expect any help from them, unfortunately. DonIago (talk) 05:53, 12 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Resources Development Administration

edit
 

Hello, Rortosthanos. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Resources Development Administration".

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. 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. Hhkohh (talk) 09:50, 9 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
