Ghost Rider link
editHi Viva43, just letting you know I have written a short explanation of how to do the link at Talk:Telstra Dome. Any questions let me know on my talk page! -- Chuq 12:45, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
This image appears to exist because it is actually at Commons. There's no need for the talk page. Thanks. Chick Bowen 05:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Grandhyattmelb.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Grandhyattmelb.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

License tagging for Image:Melb g20 riot.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Melb g20 riot.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 05:08, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Fair Use Rationales
editFor the two fair-use images you uploaded for 2006 G20 summit, you must provide fair use rationales. Just being from a newspaper does not make an image automatically fair use. Thanks in advance. -- tariqabjotu 06:20, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- If you have a look at Wikipedia:Fair_use#Images, you'll find that the fair-use rationale you have chosen, that it depicts an important current event, is not covered by the rationales that Wikipedia supports. We can't just swipe any image from a newspaper and claim it's fair use because it portrays something that's happening. I suspect that legitimate fair-use images will eventually emerge from these protests, and that we wait until we can use such images, rather than the copyrighted images you've uploaded.

G20 summit
editYou might want to check out the external link to the official website that I have added on the article if you're interested in expanding the article. Nice job on the article by the way.Wai Hong 06:34, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
Good effort!
editWoah, you seem to be an active Wikipedian, good job and keep up the fantastic work!

Speedy deletion of Grand Hyatt Melbourne
editA tag has been placed on Grand Hyatt Melbourne, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD a7.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Russavia 16:03, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with File:Melb g20.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Melb g20.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.

Non-free rationale for File:Melb g20 riot.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to File:Melb g20 riot.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. 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 any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:36, 27 June 2012 (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.
