I'm concerned

edit

This is a long overdue message but you left one of my adoptees a message through your alternate account Sfan00 IMG, here and went ahead and removed a youtube link from his userpage here stating that the copyright status was unclear. If you look at the diff, you'll see that he clearly stated that the youtube account he had linked to was his own and if you look still further, you'll notice that at the time there weren't even any videos listed on said account. The message you left on his talkpage was both bitey and unwarranted and it's people like you who scare potentially good editors away from the project with your bad-faith, templated warnings. So I just wanted to thank you for scaring away another decent editor. Please stop and assess the situation before you go ahead and template new users' talkpages, thanks ——Possum (talk) 19:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Great Rebuilding

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Great Rebuilding, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

An annoying problem with moving images to commons

edit

There are quite a few images on wikipedia that have names that commons just won't accept (eg File:960s.PNG). What do you suggest doing in these cases? Renaming the image?

Edits by Sfan00 IMG

edit

Hi there. I'm a bit concerned by edits being made by your alternate account Sfan00 IMG. The concerns are:

  • (a) They appear to be being made by a bot, but are not tagged as bot edits and you do not appear to have the relevant approvals to operate a bot.
  • (b) I am not sure they are in accordance with policy; relevantly, the CSD categories relating to images rely on the lack of a fair use rationale, not lack of tags, and it is inappropriate to propose images for deletion where they have a clearly explained fair use rationale merely because they lack the tag templates.
  • (c) Deletion is not for clean-up. Where a file (or article) is not compliant with policy, but on the basis of available information can be MADE compliant with policy, the onus is on you to attempt that work prior to calling for deletion. This means if you have sufficient information to add image copyright tags yourself, you should do so, rather than marking the image for deletion.
  • (d) A number of users - many of them new users - do not realise Sfan000 IMG is not your primary account and are asking questions on the talk page there which you do not appear to be responding to. Please answer their questions, and make the connection between your accounts clearer to users whose images you are tagging.
  • Many thanks. - DustFormsWords (talk) 01:24, 5 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have no idea what is going on. I'm hoping you can enlighten me. This is compunded by the fact that WP has unilaterally changed the user interface, and something has dumped a pile of spam on my talk page. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APdfpdf&action=historysubmit&diff=361890538&oldid=361062602 Pdfpdf (talk) 15:56, 13 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

You are now a Reviewer

edit
 

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 21:36, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

I noticed that you requested a couple DYK images be speedily deleted (File:Elena Myers after winning Race 1 Round 1 of 2010 AMA Pro Supersport Championship cropped.jpg and File:Natalka-Poltavka (1936).jpg.

Your fair use whatever

edit

Your bot or whatever the hell it is does not notice when files have fair use rationales that are not written in the basic template thing, as seen here, here, here, etc. You need to modify the script or actually look at the files you are tagging with this other account to check whether or not they have the NFCC compliant content or not.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:23, 27 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Folk enemy

The article Folk enemy has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A poorly defined concept, with no indication given that it exists as a coherent encyclopedic topic. Article unreferenced and unimproved for three years

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

I noticed that you deleted my upload of the new £50 note reverse (see my talk page). This was supplied by the Bank of England under conditions that it only be used to illustrate articles about the release of the new notes. I uploaded it for use on the article about £50 notes, specifically the section that discusses the release of new notes at the end of this year. I feel that a section of a wikipedia article falls within the BoE's use of the word "article" even if the entire page is not about therelease of the new notes (compare, a banknotes magazine with a page on the £50 note, which contains a section/article describing the new release). The BoE source page was linked to from the image description page, which contained both the original image and distribution license. I do not see how its intended use contravenes the license under which the image was provided. Can you please justify this and if you are unable, please restore the image. — Nicholas (reply) @ 12:32, 3 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Regarding wrong license on File:UNC Chapel Hill Cornerstone.jpg

edit

You recently marked File:UNC Chapel Hill Cornerstone.jpg as "wrong license" (Sorry, I don't know how to wiki-link those without inserting the picture/template)

A little help please.

This is a photo I took of a mural that is over 60 years old in a goverment-owned building (courthouse/post office)

Therefore, is it not copyright-free as a "publication" of the government?

So should this be marked "public domain" or "Non-free historic image" as it is a "faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person."?

Thanks!

re: File:Vvoice august cover.jpg ‎

In the future, when an image lacks a rationale and the user who uploaded is both active and experienced, I would strongly suggest that you not CSD tag the article and leave them a template.

Re: Non-free rationale for File:UrbanAssault-boxart.png

edit

Hello user "ShakespeareFan00",

This message is in reply to your message on my talk page regarding File:UrbanAssault-boxart.png. I assume that in your tireless semi- or fully-automated quest to earn another "barnstar", you overlooked the fact that the page you tagged does, in fact, have a "fair use rationale". It, however, does not have the "fair use rationale template" for cover art that other video game articles such as Call of Duty 4 have. After seeing how difficult using Template:Non-free use rationale video game cover was, I have helpfully done this work for you. You seem to be quite busy, adding all those templates to all those pages. I'd definitely support you in the future if there is a vote for another "barnstar" or, even better, "administrator". All of these other people on your various talk pages complaining about your automatic tagging of images for deletion are just haters; feel free to ignore them.

Hello there SF00,

This message is regarding your semi automated slapping of no licence and no description tags on an image I uploaded over 7 years ago with no problems at the time. Despite the fact that I included both at the time, and my original description and licensing are still on the page! I understand you're a busy chap trying to delete as much stuff as possible, but this is not a suitable target. I have undone your changes, feel free to get in touch in a non-automated manner if you have further things to discuss.
