Orphaned non-free media (Image:Prince of Persia Prodigy logo.JPG)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Prince of Persia Prodigy 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 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 10:06, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

WikiProject Software to do list
[edit]- The following topics are missing an article; calling all enthusiasts to start these articles urgently. [Read the Talk page]
- Gordian Knot (software), AutoGK, a bit obsolete, but still worth an article, or two (see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/BeSweet)
- Topaz Labs (software), photo editing software in the same vein as Photoshop or NIK software. The company has expanded and is used by many various fine art and photography professionals. www.topazlabs.com. Deserves an article.
- (please feel free to add more)
- The following articles need some updating and cleanup (please feel free to add more):
- BlueSpice for MediaWiki
- Cabri Geometry, article too short but of significant importance
- Defraggler
- EmEditor, needs notability references, and general improvements
- Ext4
- Flowtracer
- Google File System, tagged with {{Expert-subject|Software|date=November 2008}}
- Home Assistant (seems to be consensus that this needs cleanup from uninvolved editors after its 2nd AfD, as of 2021-04-02)
- Hypervisor, the PCs and desktop systems section needs attention
- Jv16 powertools [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
- KVIrc
- Light (web browser), just created, it's decently written but still really short, and it's not part of this project yet
- mdadm, mostly non-encyclopedic content (HOWTO/manual)
- Micro Transport Protocol, widely used since uTorrent 2.0 released
- Ntfsprogs
- Norton 360
- Recuva
- Presentation Manager, requesting screenshot of GUI, also needs references
- Program Information File
- Software as a service
- Windows library files
- XNUMBERS
- Zamzar
- Zero Install, a bit confusing article, needs to be explained more clearly
- Autodesk Media and Entertainment, major content deletion happened for cleanup on 17 March 2008 (11,000K to 2,000K), and now it's so outdated & stub-like it needs a total rebuild
- List of web application frameworks, go through the articles of listed frameworks and nominate for deletion the non-notable ones, clean the list from non-notable ones, clean Template:Application frameworks
- Aviary (application suite) Needs major updating, referencing, and clean up.
- Scrumban article reads like a sales brochure and I don't have the subject knowledge to fix it.
- The following page lists articles that need expert attention from WikiProject Software and have been tagged by {{Expert-subject|Software}}:
WikiProject Software Announcement
[edit]- Software Wikia is a wiki specialised on software using semantic extras. If a nice article does not have the required Wikipedia:Notability, simply export it and ask an admin for an import there.
- WikiProject Free Software is now merged with WikiProject Software. The link to WikiProject Free Software is Wikipedia:WikiProject Software/Free Software.
- To better serve Wikipedia, WikiProject Malware is now under the parent of WikiProject Computer Security. All Malware articles are currently being transferred over to the new project. In any case, you are welcome to join at WikiProject Computer Security!
- All members of WikiProject Software are urged to install the Centralized Announcement System on their talk page.
- I have changed the participant (members) table by replacing the Task column with Area of Expertise. I also introduced a new template based status system so as to "arrange" the members according to whether they are active, semi-active, inactive, or retired. Please update your entry accordingly.
- New IRC server! The old channel on Freenode is not used anymore. See See here. Manual for using IRC can be found here for why. Find us at:

Port | 6697 |

Your help is greatly appreciated!

WikiProject Software
[edit]I think you should test on the sandbox first, to avoid any problems or any conflicts with the joining partipants.--Tyw7, formerly Troop350 (talk) 10:13, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- What ae you waiting for, apply the new layout to the project page. I think its good enough. -- Tyw7, formerly Troop350 (talk) 14:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
- The construction of WikiProject Software mainpage is taking way too long ! Tyw7, formerly Troop350 (talk) 09:14, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
- What ae you waiting for, apply the new layout to the project page. I think its good enough. -- Tyw7, formerly Troop350 (talk) 14:44, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
NFS: Undercover
[edit]Hello there. There is absolutely no information regarding platforms for Undercover, to add them is speculation, which is why I reverted. If you have a reliable source, feel free to add them back, with it. Stuff like "hoped to be Q4 this year" is also total speculation, as no date has been offered. I reverted your edit. Thanks! Fin©™ 18:53, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- I actually appreciate that, no problem. But please read the talk page. and don't get angry on me please.
- Actually, I have reordered all the information available till date. I promise all of them are true in sense even the Quote (the reference is broken I noticed that). Please can you contribute to find the links... I am actually doing that now.
- As of the Release date, its not a speculation, cause all the NFS are have been so and this one shall too. The date isnt officially released, but the Quarter4 is confirm. Tell me what you feel, sooner possibly, if you can please. Thanks... – Deb ‖ Poke • EditList ‖ 19:23, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- Oh course it's speculation - just because EA have made a FIFA every year for the past 10 doesn't mean they will next year. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. If it's confirmed, please provide your source. Saying it's Q4 just because every other NFS has been released then is not good enough. Thanks! Fin©™ 19:26, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry there, the way you ordered your response I didn't see the first two paragraphs. I'm not angry, I'm just explaining why I deleted it. I actually don't understand your second paragraph - the quote isn't necessary anyway, as it's covered in other places the article. Thanks! Fin©™ 19:28, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
