AfD nomination of Calvin Prasad
editHello Girmitya! As you have recently contributed several times to the article about Calvin Prasad, you may want to know that I have nominated it for deletion in this AfD. Please feel welcome to give your opinion and defend this article if you wish so. Happy editing! SyG (talk) 18:15, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
Indo-Fijian diaspora
editWhy are you re-inserting those statistics back to the article? They are completely wrong. There are other ethnic groups in Fiji besides Indians and they emigrate too. cab (talk) 18:00, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Possibly unfree File:AKP.jpg
editA file that you uploaded or altered, File:AKP.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. --Soundvisions1 (talk) 03:44, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
The article Surjeet Singh has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- I can find no mention of a Surjeet Singh who plays chess in any reliable sources (the one sources supposed to mention him refers to a Dave Sukh Singh, also not notable). Without any evidence that he even exists, we can't keep this article.
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 {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Fences&Windows 17:04, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Suva City Council Logo.jpg)
editThanks for uploading File:Suva City Council Logo.jpg. 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 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Hazard-Bot (talk) 05:07, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation
editYour upload of File:AmiChandraDeviji.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

File source problem with File:IndianPlatoon.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:IndianPlatoon.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 seven 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. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 03:15, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
