Image:Iitd overview.jpg listed for deletion

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Iitd overview.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

Paladin(Age of Empires 2)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Paladin(Age of Empires 2), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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.

• You said "Being new to wikipedia I was not aware that such articles are not entertained. Ok feel free to delete it. I also created a page for another unit in this game --knight. Please remove it too. Sorry and thanks". You're welcome, your apology is accepted, you're forgiven, and thank you for letting me know of the existence of the second mistake-article. Keep up the good work. DS 15:07, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Hare Krishna Mantra

हर कृषण हर कृषण

कृषण कृषण हर हर

हर राम हर राम

राम राम हर हर

I do not know how to make the proper shape appear. I believe that there should be a diagonal mark starting at the right hand top corner of the word हर, and going diagonally upwards. If you could help that would be great. It is supposed to go on the Hare Krishna page. David G Brault 19:11, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Iitd logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Iitd logo.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:27, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
