Hello, Seansasser, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Are you copying this article from somewhere else? Is it a site which allows copying? Please provide your sources of information (not just a bibliography copied from another article, but the sources you have actually used in writing what you have written). PamD (talk) 14:30, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- In reply to your reply on my talk page: you might find it useful to look at Wikipedia:Translation which discusses the procedure for translating from other language Wikipedias and the sort of interwiki links and attributions which are needed. If you can't work out how to make the various bits of infrastructure to work, better to leave them out of the article - as it says in that page, "Wikipedia consensus is that an unedited machine translation, left as a Wikipedia article, is worse than nothing."

How does info box work?

Your question.
I've scouring about gathering more information about the Lancia Ro and 3 Ro and have put some of the technical information in the info box, but it does not appear on the Show Preview or Save Page setting. Any other help/suggestions to bring up the entry to standard would be much be looked upon gratefully.

Jesse James (lifesaver)
editHi, as per your request on my talk page here are a few suggestions as to how you can improve the Joshua James (lifesaver) article:
- The lead has some issues, see WP:LEAD for more information.
- Basic sentence structure
"…Joshua witnessed his mother’s and a baby sisters death in the…" Has grammar errors and could be rewritten as: "…Joshua witnessed the death of both his mother and a baby sister in the…"
If you would like the article copyedited, please post a request at the requests page]
- The first three picture captions are far too long – try to be more succinct.
- Every sentence does not need its own paragraph – it interrupts the flow and makes the text look odd.
- More references are required if the article is to make Good Article status.
Hope this helps, Best ► Philg88 ◄ talk 08:38, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
Thank you!

How references work |
---|
Simple referenceseditThese require two parts;
Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref> He likes tea. <ref> [http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com Tea website] </ref>
== References == {{reflist}} (an existing article is likely to already have one of these sections) To see the result of that, please look at user:chzz/demo/simpleref. Edit it, and check the code; perhaps make a test page of your own, such as user:Seansasser/reftest and try it out. Named referenceseditChzz was born in 1837, <ref name="MyBook"> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref> in Footown.<ref name="MyBook"/> Note that the second usage has a / (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see user:chzz/demo/namedref to see the result. Citation templateseditYou can put anything you like between <ref> and </ref>, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look; Chzz has 37 Olympic medals. <ref> {{Citation | last = Smith | first = John | title = Olympic medal winners of the 20th century | publication-date = 2001 | publisher = [[Cambridge University Press]] | page = 125 | isbn = 0-521-37169-4 }} </ref> Please see user:chzz/demo/citeref to see the result. For more help and tips on that subject, see user:chzz/help/refs. |
- If you need any further help on it, please shout with another {{helpme}}, or ask me on User talk:Chzz. Cheers, Chzz ► 09:30, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Better source request for File:Joshua_James_Gold_Life-Saving_Medal,_USLSS,_obverse.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Joshua_James_Gold_Life-Saving_Medal,_USLSS,_obverse.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 05:34, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Joshua James Gold Life-Saving Medal, USLSS, obverse.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:Joshua James Gold Life-Saving Medal, USLSS, obverse.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing 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 the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
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.
You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 22:14, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

editis missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.

If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Theo's Little Bot (error?) 09:26, 14 April 2013 (UTC)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.

File source problem with File:Joshua James Full Portrait.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:Joshua James Full Portrait.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 page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
