Image Tagging for Image:Sharleen_Spiteri_15.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Sharleen_Spiteri_15.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

With regards to your question about the spelling of the name Wallis, the two most common spellings are Wallis as in Barnes Wallis or Wallis Simpson for instance, or Wallace as in William Wallace, Wallace and Gromit or Edgar Wallace for example.

Personal questions

Hi,

do you mind if I were to ask you a few personal questions? Feel free to not answer them, but I ask them because I wish to know something about 'memory' in Russia or with Russians in general. I ask these questions to several native Russian speakers, so forgive me if you encounter these questions on different talkpages. So here are the questions:

When were you born?
Were you 16 or older in the 1980s?
Were you born in Russia/Soviet Union? Where?
How do you remember the Soviet-Afghan war/Afghan war?
How do you remember the Soviet repression, such as the Gulag or the prison camp system?
How do you remember the public discussion in the 1980s/1990s about the repression and the prison camp system?
How do you feel about the victims of the Afghan war and the victims of the repression?

Answer in anyway you like (which includes not answering as well of course), thank you very much.

Kind regards,

Mallerd (talk) 18:38, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In 1984.
No.
Yes. Poltava, Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union.
No, war ended before I was 5 years old.
No, GULag was dismantled in 1959, before my parents were even born.
I was a child then, but I don't really remember any discussions outside of TV broadcasts.
I do believe this war pursued some important goals (e. g. keeping Muslim influence in Asian parts of SU under control), but government failed to communicate these goals to public.

Orphaned non-free image File:Chizh album.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Chizh album.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:11, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license.

Martin Lennings moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Martin Lennings, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for February 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited David de Rambures, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Treaty of Arras. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 06:03, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
