Speedy deletion of Guai a chi ci tocca

A tag has been placed on Guai a chi ci tocca requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ormers (talk) 17:49, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Re Opuntia bigelovii.jpeg

Hi, thanks for your message. I removed the template because there were a couple of minor problems with your transfer of the image to Commons.

Firstly, the GFDL Licence requires that all contributors who have added to the work are fully attributed. In other words, the article or file history should be preserved. No big deal in this case, as I was the sole uploader, but often there are many contributors. Images being transferred to Commons should have this information available. An easy way to make sure the attribution history is preserved is to use a tool such as CommonsHelper. It's very easy to use, just fill in the relevant information and off you go. It copies all the attribution history and generates an "Original upload log" section with this information plus a link back to the original source Wikipedia page. See here for an example image transferred using CommonsHelper.

Secondly, the transferred image was given a different filename. In itself this isn't a problem, but when adding the {{nowcommons}} template it gets added to the queue for speedy deletion under Category I8. Before deletion, admins are supposed to check that all local links to the image have been updated properly to reflect the new name on Commons, but often this is overlooked. The result is that all local pages linking to the image are left with redlinks because of the name change. If you're adding this template for images you transfer to Commons with a different filename, please check which pages link to the wikipedia image using the "What links here" function in the toolbox and update all the pages to reference the new name.

I hope that explains things, but let me know if you need further information. --Cactus.man ✍ 17:15, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

OK. I've updated the Commons page to include the attribution history, leaving the filename unchanged. The links on Italian Wikipedia should be unaffected. --Cactus.man ✍ 19:32, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

it-5Questo utente può contribuire con un italiano a livello professionale.

{{Babel|it-5}}, the phrase Questo utente può contribuire a livello professionale in Italiano. is grammatically correct, but it sounds awful. Please, can an admin change it to Questo utente può contribuire con un italiano a livello professionale? The i of italian stands minuscule for the italian grammar rules. Thanks :)

P.s.: take a look in my UP, i'm italian ;) --Vale maio (talk) 22:35, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

To do this, please could you go to Template talk:Babel, create a new section, and put {{editprotected}}, followed by your request (maybe copy from here and paste it). If you have problems, please use a helpme on here. Thanks,  Chzz  ►  22:43, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
