Wikipedian06
Hi Wikipedian06,
I've just noticed you've blanked your talk-page.
As I too was taught this, I thought I might best pass it on, but it's policy never to delete your talkpage information. If you want to clean it up, you can create an archive and move it there, like User talk:Wikipedian06/Archive. Feel free to take a look how I did it for an idea.
Cheers JackSparrow Ninja 04:05, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to move pages to bad titles or before discussions about the title have ended, as you did to NaN, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 07:33, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Dungeons in The Legend of Zelda series
editAn editor has nominated Dungeons in The Legend of Zelda series, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dungeons in The Legend of Zelda series and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. Jayden54Bot 18:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Leaving a message at the talk page doesn't mean you can just go ahead and add anything you like to the article. No one even responded on the talk page yet, so there's no consensus for your edit. Also, this goth thing you keep adding is just POV nonsense. It's funny how you revert someone else's edit (who called Midna a beautiful, tall woman) for POV, but consider calling her a Goth is NPOV. What's also funny is that I supposedly need a chill pill, while you're the one flying off the handle in a big way. You say I need to learn about Wikipedia etiquette. Is that some kind of joke? I've rarely encountered someone so uncivil in both his edit summaries and his user talk messages. "READ THE FUCKING TALK PAGE KTHNXBAI" doesn't inspire me to go into great detail when reverting your edits. Lastly, I gave you a vandalism warning because you reverted all the way back to your own last edit, thereby disregarding any edits in between. It put back a lot of unsourced stuff in the article.--Atlan (talk) 00:15, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
I've removed the vandalism warning, since I guess it was an accident. Please be more careful when you revert to an older edit next time.--Atlan (talk) 00:35, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Image uploading
editYou need to put in fair-use rationale for your images, as well as upload them in a low resolution. I'm not going to do any more than Image:ZeldaTP.jpg for you, so you have to do them yourself. I'm marking them for deletion, which has a 7 day deadline. Also, you need to properly source them. Be more specific than www.nintendo.com - Zero1328 Talk? 14:38, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Bongobongo.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Bongobongo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 that will be useful. However, please note that images 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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:43, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Deathly Hallows
editI notice you've removing content from Deathly Hallows today. There's no consensus on your removal, and please see also my comment on this talk page, my apologies for the inconvenience. Should you find yourself disagree with what I said, please reopen the archive 14 debate on the Deathly Hallows talk page so that it can be easier for all parties to get involved in the discussion and avoid reverting one another. Thank you for your understanding. Peacent 16:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
July 2007
editPlease stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Horcrux, you will be blocked from editing. Gscshoyru 19:37, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Horcrux
editI'm not vandalising the page, you stupid moron. I'm adding legitimate, sourced information from my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows from DeepDiscount.com, which shipped the book several days early as a mistake on their part. Because I have a legitimate hard copy of the book and am not relying on the "leak," the info is fully legitimate, and there is no reason for Wikipedia to withhold information in this situation.
Get your facts straight, and quit accusing everyone of "vandalism." Did you even read my edits?
Wikipedian06 19:39, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- Good to know. But seeing as I don't have proof you really have the book, it's still not verifiable, and you still can't post it. And if it is real... can't you wait like 4 days before posting it? Thanks. Gscshoyru 19:42, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Waiting 4 days
editIt's not Wikipedia's duty to withhold information as they become available. Read the talk page on HP7.
If the media is reporting all these leaks (and in many cases, actually including plot details within the news articles), why can't Wikipedia have information once it's readily available?
Wikipedian06 19:45, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- Because there is no proof that it's a leak and not a hoax. I suggest you take a look at the talk page, because at the bottom it says stuff about people who post spoilers being banned. Gscshoyru 19:48, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

editDeleted, same reasons as above -- and if you insist on continuing to do this, you'll get blocked until 12:01 am on Saturday. NawlinWiki 05:13, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Chaser - T 22:56, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Civility!
editIt is not acceptable to call other users 'idiots' in your edit summaries, or indeed anywhere at all. Please see WP:CIVIL and WP:No personal attacks. Continued behaviour in that manner may lead to blocks. For what it's worth, at the time you submitted that summary, you were technically wrong — the book was yet to be legally released for 6 minutes. I realise it's easy to get riled, but remember not to panic and that, most importantly, there is no deadline. Thanks! Angus Lepper(T, C, D) 23:02, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Potter
editPlease don't delete alrge parts of the article to add new info. Add your info in the right section and integrate it into what is already there. Thanks. — Carl (CBM · talk) 23:13, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Posted Information regarding Deathly Hallows
editAt 23:10 On July 20, 51 minutes before the book was released you edited the article Severus Snape and disclosed that his Patronus is a Doe, which is a major plot point in Deathly Hallows. Ipodman 10:46, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
No Personal Attacks
editI was crossing out personal attacks to show people that it was wrong. However, I did not remove them because that would be censorship. — Rickyrab | Talk 17:50, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
re: Deathly Hallows
editIt's WAY too long, and we do NOT need chapter-by-chapter summaries detailing every minor event in the book. Judging from previous books, I'd say 8-10 paragraphs is a good length; any more than that, and it's excessively long & overly detailed. Anyone else agree? Wikipedian06 17:46, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
It's nothing compared to the richness of the prose... Suggest the chapters format for a few months as then can be section edited by the many. //FrankB 17:59, 21 July 2007 (UTC) Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Harry_Potter_and_the_Deathly_Hallows"
Let me add, this will undoubtably grow to about ten times the current length based on prior articles. Though I tend to agree, ;perfering a 'sense' synopsis, no one will likely agree on what should be included, as all six prior novels lend plot elements to this. It's very rich, indeed. Nothing like this has ever happened in literature before. Even isn't of the same magnitude, and that is 165 years back. Hence, I suggest the chapters for now.
Submit best use of editing time after chapter sections would be to minimize plot revelations for a few months. We've centuries to write an encyclopedaic article, right now, the responsible thing would be to protect the facts as much as possible for the enjoyment of the youngest readers. Best regards. // FrankB 17:59, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

edityou have not discussed the changes you are making on the talk page. Therefore, your edits are the vandalism, not mine. It is a consensus that the list of killed characters is staying, therefore it is staying. Stop removing it. -007bond aka Matthew G aka codingmasters 03:43, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

edit This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to HP7, you will be blocked from editing. HP7 is english, and if you carry on, you will probably be banned from editing Wikipedia. Someone dedicated to making your day a little bit better! 10:37, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Beramuu.PNG
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Beramuu.PNG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia 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 non-free media 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. Ejfetters 21:35, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Do you have proof that it's really a gameplay video of SMG? Youtube is rarely a reliable source. Mario, the coins, and the manta ray look extremely similar, if not the same as SM64. — Malcolm (talk) 20:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

MuggleNet.com's What Will Happen in Harry Potter 7
editThanks for the explanation of why you reverted the MuggleNet article, but your reasons for doing so really don't stand up.
There is no evidence that I got my information from the forums because I didn't do so. Similarity of subject matter and/or conclusions is no such proof. When different people independently analyse the same information they may very well come to the same conclusions, which is the reason for any similarities between MuggleNet's forums and "What Will Happen...". There are also huge differences between the content of the forums and the book, particularly with reference to whether Harry is a Horcrux or not.
I do have an account for the MuggleNet forum, obtained several years ago and not used for a very long time. I'm sure, if necessary, the technical staff from the site can check for the date of my last login, which was well before the development of the book. This is far better proof that I didn't use the forums than any similarities in conclusions, which simply come from the fact that similar evidence was being considered.
I believe that Wikipedia is striving to present information as accurate as possible, and I'm simply aiding this process by using the knowledge that I have - which I have because I know more about the writing of "What Will Happen..." than you do. I replaced an incorrect statement with a correct one, so please don't increase the inaccuracy of the article by keeping on changing it back. Bobby Skank 12:17, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass genre dispute

Lead section
editYou shouldn't remove something from the body of an article simply because it's found in the lead. The lead serves as summary of the article, so this is to be expected.

Talk: Super Mario Galaxy archiving
editHi Wikipedian06,
Just a quick note that your archiving of the talk page may have been a bit hasty. The size of the page should not be the deciding factor so much as the age of the threads--as I noted in my post there, you archived one discussion that was still active only a few hours ago, and there are many others which have been posted to in the past couple of days and may very well still be active. Given the relatively low frequency of discussion, I don't believe that people should have to revive threads they are participating in just because they were gone for a day--even ANI uses a 24-hour limit.
I appreciate that you are trying to keep the page accessable through dial-up, but you have to be wary of actions like this one, particularly since you followed up the archive with a large post of your own. I've suggested implementing MiszaBot functionality on the talk page with a 15-day expiry so we don't need to worry about this in the future. --jonny-mt 06:47, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Super Mario Galaxy
editI was wondering why you removed the regional sale figures from the Super Mario Galaxy article [1]. They seemed to have been sourced and (in my opinion) added to the article in a positive way. Is it because they were out of date or did you just think they were unnecessary? Regards, Guest9999 (talk) 20:46, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 20:50, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I was making an important point with the second paragraph of my reply, and your edit pretty much destroyed it. Arrowned (talk) 03:15, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
How is the fiscal information related to the founding of Facebook? The first paragraph talks about the founding and its history, and then the last sentence talks about the financials of the company? Gary King (talk) 00:08, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Use of Serebii.net
editHi Wikipedian06! I'm surprised that you don't want Serebii.net to be used in the Pokémon Platinum article. I see nothing wrong with using it to confirm that nintendo.co.jp announced the game on May 15. It is a fan site yes, but a good one, updated almost daily. No, I'm not in any way connected with that site, in case you think that. I just think that the date on which the game was first officially confirmed is notable enough to be mentioned (and sourced). Cheers, Face 12:49, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Edits of Twilight Princess
editHello,
Just to let you know, the fact that you've never heard of a particular website is a non-argument. Noone could care less wether you heard of them or not. Game Revolution has been around for twelve years and is therefore one of the longer running game websites. Because of your statements on the talk page, I feel you're not adhering to WP:NPOV. In addition to that, you (maybe inadvertently) removed several footnotes from the article backing the statement that major websites called Twilight Princess the greatest Zelda ever. Per the reasons above, I'm giving you this warning:
Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Twilight Princess, without explaining the valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Gamerankings
editYou seem to be someone who knows their stuff about this. Can you tell me why gamerankings isn't allowing logins/new reviews to be added? It's so infuriating. Thanks in advance. Autonova (talk) 11:03, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Ocarina of Time
editYou say peacock terms in the reception section? Would you care to fix it yourself before you add the template? Those templates are used only if the problem is big, and one editor may not fix them all himself. If the reception section passed FA criteria (and recently too), I say that the reception section does not have a major issue at all. Fix it yourself, because you are not telling us what the problem is. --haha169 (talk) 03:33, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- Agree. Please try and be a little more careful when adding these template. In this context, I think a discussion is needed. The Prince (talk) 12:37, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Might I tell you that I have never played OoT? Don't accuse somebody of fanboyism, simply because I removed your paragraph about criticism. That still belongs in the lead. If you want, you can insert a bit of criticism into the existing reception paragraph in the lead, but criticism does not merit its own paragraph in the lead. Check WP:VG's May Newsletter for a bit more info on VG leads. (And don't give me "that's not a guideline" stuff. Just check it out.) --haha169 (talk) 19:37, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Your Edit Summaries
editPlease do not accuse people of being a fanboy, no matter how that may seem. You recently accused one editor of being a fanboy because he/she removed a passage from the reception section concerning some criticism to OoT. Just revert the edit, it is not necessary to call someone a "fanboy", unless they did something extremely stupid. --haha169 (talk) 03:13, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Pokémon Platinum disruption
editYou are clearly being disruptive to the Pokémon Platinum article by once again redirecting it without discussion. The consensus right now is to not merge, and you are acting quite like a child who has just lost an argument. Please stop. Artichoker[talk] 20:01, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

editDo not redirect Pokémon Platinum to Pokémon Diamond & Pearl! TheLeftorium 20:03, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Do not redirect Pokémon Platinum to Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, as consensus has already been reached that this is not what should happen. If you have a problem, discuss it on the talk page, or you may be blocked. 20:59, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Pokémon Platinum. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Artichoker[talk] 20:57, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Facebook.

Olympic medal image
editImages from the IOC are not in the public domain. You can't simply tag them as being PD.. nor can you claim being the original creator of the image, with your {{pd-author}} tag for that image. Regardless, I've deleted the image.
Right now the current image is the only free use or public domain image that presents the Beijing Olympic medals. So we'll have to use those until there are other PD or free use images. --Madchester (talk) 04:20, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

"irrelevant" text on United States at the 2008 Summer Olympics
editActually, I think the text you removed is relevant to the article. The sentence could be re-worded, but it definitely pertains to US athletes and their performance during the Olympic games. If the information is well-sourced, I do not see why it cannot remain. --Jh12 (talk) 08:59, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, but your edits are close to pushing a non-American viewpoint on an American article. The article must be given room because it is an article about American records, achievements, and history. The article even uses American spellings. In regards to the media, they are not breaking any IOC convention because there is no official convention. The majority of United States media has ranked by total medals for most of modern Olympic history. The IOC medal tables only began ranking by gold as recently as 1992 [3], and the IOC takes no position on the medal count. [4] You say that we are grasping at straws. But the fact is, the United States did win more medals than any other NOC, it had more athletes win medals than any other NOC, and it is still historically the most successful nation in Olympic history. --Jh12 (talk) 13:13, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
Anti-American statements on talk pages
editMessages like this on talk pages are unaccaptable because they are personal attacks on wikipedians from other nations, and talk pages are meant for constructive discussion, not personal opinions. -- Scorpion0422 03:01, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Air Pollution on 2008 Olympic
editYour comparison between Beijing and NYC is not scientific. See the discussion page before you put things there. Your work contained factual errors. Shaoquan (talk) 03:02, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
POV and SYN
editWelcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you.
Please be careful with the tone and wording of your recent edits ([5],[6], [7] etc.) Using peacock terms like "unprecedented" to describe China's recent Olympic performance should be avoided.
Also, please don't introduced personal research per WP:SYN. Your edit makes personal claims that American sources changed their medal ranking system at these Games. This isn't true, according to the WSJ article. You can't make personal observations of ESPN's other medal tables to draw personal conclusions as it's considered original research. Also, it's facetious to think that ESPN was even around a century ago to rank the 1896 medal table. --Madchester (talk) 03:42, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

edit...to the Controversy and Concerns for 2008 Summer Olympics.
As I said many times, your comparison was not scientific and you took the report out of context. you also do not understand science sufficiently to distinguish the difference between microgram and milligram.

Guo Jingjing
editCould I ask you to respect our policies on reliable sources. Furthermore there is no need to use inflammatory edit summaries and label everything you do not like as anti-Chinese and propaganda. Novidmarana (talk) 17:40, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
The additions to Guo Jingjing seem to be in order. The source is good, and has quotes from the Chinese team doctor stating the fact. It is not just a Chinese thing, it is all divers. This does not from Guo at all. If she can truly not see the board, it makes her diving even more impressive. --DanteAgusta (talk) 03:54, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
Would you please be careful with your edits to the above article as some of them have been very non-NPOV. It is important that this article gives a fair and balaced overview of the different ranking systems as a lot of pages where we've had disputes over the system we use here at wikipedia now link to it for explaination. Thanks, Basement12 (T.C) 11:51, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- Would you please stop what is effectively edit warring at this page. Some of the sources you keep adding do not show what you claim they do. Instead of continuing to add them pehaps you should discuss the changes you propose on the talk page. Thankyou Basement12 (T.C) 13:20, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
List of stripped Olympic medals
editCould you please stop adding false information to this article? You have repatedly added a count of the countries with the most medals stripped. Neither are the numbers you give correct, nor is there any factual accuracy in this statement as athleths and not countries win gold medals. But looking at your talk page it is apparent that so far you are oblivious to warnings. Novidmarana (talk) 05:50, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Warning
editAt least you got the numbers right this time, well almost, as Russia lost 8 medals, but I guess counting from 1 to 7 is easier than counting from 1 to 8. Anyway, given your track record her on Wikipedia I have a hard time assuming good faith, but if a table says that it is incomplete, that it presumably is. And conversely to what you said I did not delete "your" paragraph on Rick Delmonte, but added the year the medal was recognized by the USOC. But what I am saying, there are not many reasons to assume good faith. Novidmarana (talk) 03:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Gleeock, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page.
If you can fix this redirect to point to an existing Wikipedia page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you also fix the redirect. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

editAs you do not have a clear consensus to merge the page, it is improper to do so. I've taken the changes you made during the merge into the article at Pokémon Platinum.

Please don't make POV attacks in an article. Thank you, —Politizer talk/contribs 03:19, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
- This is your second POV attack in a day. The shame of it is, that viewpoint actually might be valid (to temper the views expressed in American sources), but you made up things that were not in the article and you stretched the article in such a way as to make a vitriolic attack in the article instead of trying to be constructive. You are generally a productive contributor so I don't want to cause a fight with you over just a few edits, but if you continue doing this I will have to report you for administrator intervention. Thank you, —Politizer talk/contribs 07:11, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- Given the amount of warnings on this talk page and the complete lack of response to these warning, and given the disruptive, nationalist editing on anything China-related I would not call this editor productive. Novidmarana (talk) 04:48, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
The score of Ocarina of Time
editHi, I read your comments on Talk:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. You wrote, "Cubed3 changed its score for this game from a 9.9 to a 9.0 due to a new rounding system, causing Grand Theft Auto IV to be listed #1 on GameRankings. The GameRankings editor noted that dozens of angry readers emailed him about how it was an outrage for sites to change their scores years after publishing their original reviews. He then arbitrarily set a policy that only original scores could count on the site". After I read this I got interested and researched and found a very important fact. This is the reviews section of RPGamer's Ocarina of Time page. You see two Official Staff Reviews and one Unofficial Staff Review. Game Rankings take the two Official Staff Reviews as a score of 5 out of 5. This is an archived page of RPGamer's Ocarina of Time page. The Feb 08, 1999 page have a review section, and you see the review is by Ryan Amos, and the score is 8.5. On The Jun 06, 2002 page, the second review appeared. The review was written 3 years after the first review was published. It’s pretty much obvious that the first score by Ryan Amos is the original score. According to game rankings’ policy, the score of 8.5 by Ryan Amos should be taken as RPGamer's score. How do you think?--Eisai Dekisugi (talk) 21:40, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
I have not yet got a reply from him. First, I send a message to him from my email address of yahoo.com, but got a failure notice that said "Mail server for "gamespot.com" unreachable for too long". Then I send a message from my email address of mail.com on 30 November. It may be that he has not yet read my email, or he read it but is thinking it over, or because I emailed him from a free email address, which I have only, my email was regarded as a spam or something.

Copyright violation in File:PhelpsBong.jpg
editHello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on File:PhelpsBong.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because File:PhelpsBong.jpg is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

File source problem with File:Touhou13.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Touhou13.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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 04:19, 18 October 2009 (UTC).
