Your "move" of Church of the Holy Family to Church of the Holy Family (Singapore)

[edit]

Please do not "move" pages by copy and pasting them to a new article name. That will damage the history of the article, which is required to be preserved under Wikipedia's GFDL license. Instead, use the "move" option which will do everything nicely and properly for you. Read Wikipedia:How to move a page for more information.

I have listed the page as "wrongly done page move, to be repaired" for an administrator's attention. Kimchi.sg 16:17, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Awfully sorry. I plead ignorance of the rule and I promise to take the correct path next time.--Ariedartin 16:38, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries - use them :)

[edit]

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Kimchi.sg 06:22, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Whoops again. I'll keep that in mind too. Thank you very much. (= Ariedartin 06:25, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there. I agree re making a cathedral stub. Good call. I think the Saint Francis Cathedral in Santa Fe

Guitarist deletions

[edit]

It is almost impossible to imagine a lead guitarist better known than Hendrix, or a band more notable than the Who, and there is absolutely nothing US-specific about this. If anything, both were even more popular on the other side of the Atlantic, and certainly far better known internationally than many of the names you left in (Alexander Kapranos?). I find your judgement in editing that list very questionable. Also, given that I'm not American, your accusation of a US bias on my part would be funny were it less offensive. PurplePlatypus 04:42, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You forget the other side of the Pacific. The only time I ever saw Jim Hendrix's name was in a Time magazine, and that was only in passing mention in an article regarding a deceased left-handed guitarist. I sincerely apologise if I have offended you in any way. I only intend a view that is as internationally-minded as possible. There is no problem with Wikipedia articles on bands or band members with localised reputations, but that is not what Lead guitarist is about. Ariedartin JECJY 05:17, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

What is a "NOR rule"? And who was "flouting" anything? I was just trying to keep the article up to date.

BouncingBeatnik 21:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NOR is "No Original Research". A statement such as "perhaps it is broken" is already indicative of No Original Research. If you need to place a hypothesis such as that, you will need a citation to back it up. Ariedartin JECJY Talk 15:04, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Strat.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Strat.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.

Regarding Christian views on contraception

[edit]

I believe the Wikipedia policy is targeted toward material that is doubtful or harmful. To me, the material deleted from the article Christian views on contraception was credible, and I do not currently see how it could be construed as harmful. I had interpreted the fact tag as a request for sources rather than a step on the path to deletion. I assume the editor who had been doing extensive work on the article had used that interpretation also: (s)he tagged the material but had not made any efforts to remove it, and the talk page currently has a request for more citations without implying that uncited material should be deleted.

We're all here to make Wikipedia better, and as frustrating as different editing styles may be, I think that ultimately they are the reason Wikipedia is so successful. For example, your deletion of the material in question prompted me to spend time looking for sources, and now the article is better cited. End result: a plus for Wikipedia.

As an aside, I did not add the material in question. I would like to think that I source most material that I add to Wikipedia, especially things as easily sourced as those two statements. Lyrl Talk Contribs 17:03, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Palestine TfD

[edit]

I hate to keep bothering you like this, but I think there may be a bit of confusion here. This isn't an attempt to delete the template - TfD is merely the technical process used to rename a template, much like CfD is the means of renaming a category. Right now you are actually opposing a renaming, even though you stated you are in favour of such a move (might I be so presumptuous to suggest you change your vote?). Cheers, TewfikTalk 18:36, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry that you withdrew, but I appreciate your candor about being confused. If you ever want to discuss the issues, I would be more than happy to oblige you. All the best, TewfikTalk 20:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Tele.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Tele.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --Abu Badali 17:18, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop major changes in articles formatting

[edit]

You seem to change style of formatting of every article you edit, removing spaces used to format headers and distinguish paragraphs and parts of article, i.e. you make 

==Header==

from 

== Header ==

That leads to unnecessary crumbling of article's history with lots of diffs - official Wikipedia policy says that boths styles are acceptable and it heavily recommends to stick to whatever style an article uses for minimal diffs. Moreover, all automatic editing tools I know of maintain style with spaces.

Please revert articles you've changed to their original spacing style. --GreyCat 09:05, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:FenderStratocaster.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.

Welcome to the Eighth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

As many of you will know, we currently have several articles relating to the same basic topics. The articles in the Category:Baptism are one example of such. It is really in the interests of all of us to try to place as much content in the main article of such topics, and then have the other articles "branch off" from there and making the central article as good an article as possible. We also now have a proposal for a new general "Christianity" related award, similar to the Military history project's chevrons, at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum. John Carter (talk), Lead Coordinator

Newsletter challenge

Last month's new article challenge, Church of Daniel's Band, was begun by User:Jack1956 and was included in the Main page's DYK section on June 15. Thank you to Jack1956 for his great work on creating this article!

This message is a test to check to see if members of the Warhammer 40K Project are still online, active and interested in helping the project. If you are no longer interested in the project all you need to do is...nothing! If you don't respond to this I'll take your name off the list and you'll never here from us again. If you're the proactive type you can remove the name yourself or talk to me and I'll do it.

If you are still interested in helping out the 40K project or otherwise still want to be listed there you can say so in response to this message on your talk page or on mine. Alternately you can add our new userbox ({{User WikiProject Warhammer 40,000}}) to your userpage and I'll take that as a response. The userpage doesn't automatically include people in a category of members yet, but it might in the future.

We've assessed most of the articles in the project on the Version 1.0 assessment scale (the table on the project page should take a few days to update) but we need to push to get the core articles in the project up to GA status. Thanks for all your help. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help the project along. Protonk (talk) 21:12, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's been more than a bit of a rough time for some of us, okay, me, for a while here. Several things, most of them not real pleasant, kept coming up. I think most of that is over with know.

From the Members

Welcome to the Eighth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

Hello from the new Christian films task force! I was recently apart of founding a task force, so this is the story. For several months, I would not only contribute to Christian films, groups, etc., but I'd also see other users working on similar articles. I really wanted to create a project for us to work from. Filmcom contacted me about trying to get a task force going, so we began working together on it. When it appeared the idea was dying, we continued to fight, and several other users joined!

Thanks to the efforts of many users, I'd like to introduce you to the Christian films task force! We are currently having a bot tag all Christian film-related articles, and we are working to define our project scope. We now have our own icon and shortcut (WP:CFTF), with ten users signed out thus far - these are just some of the things that have been happening in the last few days. If you have any interest in joining such a project, we welcome everyone to join and get involved.

Proposed deletion of Church of the Holy Family, Singapore

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Church of the Holy Family, Singapore, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

tagged with reference concerns for years, no indication of notability

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Welcome to the Ninth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

I am in the process of going through the various categories related to Christianity. I am finding that several of them may not have sufficient number of members to continue. By the end of the month, I hope to have the main category list finished (yeah, it might take that long, it's huge). At that time, I think we will review all the categories and see which may not have sufficient articles to continue. Please feel free to take part in the discussion regading what the minimum number of category items is, and how to deal with the non-qualifying categories, on the General Forum page.

  • I am still working on the categorization matter. With any luck, we should have some results by the end of the month. There are also some discussions regarding project related activities at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum. One issue in particular that might be addressed is possible elections of new coordinators. Anyone interested in serving in such a capacity is more than welcome to indicate as much.

  • The previous contests are still ongoing, because of the extreme amount of time the categorization is taking me. Anyone who can bring any of the few Stub class articles among the project's 1000 most often accessed articles by the end of July will get an award. Please see the details Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Christianity#Project challenge of the month.

Welcome to the Tenth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

It has been a long time since the last coordinators election. There is a lot for people to do, and I certainly would welcome seeing any individuals with an interest in such a position put themselves forward as candidates. I in particular would very much like to see some degree of "specialization" in the coordinators, so that, for instance, we might have someone knowledgable about some of the specific Christian faith traditions or other main subjects, like Orthodoxy, Lutheranism, Mormonism, the Jehovah's Witnesses, art, theology, and so on. If any parties who have experience with some of our faith- or- subject-based content would be interested in being candidates, I would love to see them do so. Please feel free to take part in the discussion regading what the minimum number of category items is, and how to deal with the non-qualifying categories, on the General Forum page.

Orphaned non-free image File:SquierStratocaster.jpg

[edit]
⚠
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:SquierStratocaster.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).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.


Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:28, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:CHF backdrop2.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:CHF backdrop2.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 '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 you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:05, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree File:Oldholyfam.jpg

[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Oldholyfam.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

File permission problem with File:CHF SG christmas 2003.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:CHF SG christmas 2003.jpg, which you've sourced to http://www.veritas.org.sg/g2/photos/oldholyfam/bckdrop2.htm. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy.
