Speedy deletion nomination of ISKCON New Delhi
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on ISKCON New Delhi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Travelbird (talk) 12:26, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Addition of non-free images
Hi, please don't add non-free images to articles when the images have no non-free use rationales for these articles, as you did with Bharat Ratna. Please check WP:NFCC for possible non-free use criteria and discuss on the article talk page before readding images. Thanks Hekerui (talk) 14:51, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Asian Tennis Fedration's official logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Asian Tennis Fedration's official logo.png. 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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Armbrust Talk Contribs 17:35, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
"Sanskrit" word in Devanagari
Hi Bill! So, I don't understand your revert. What's the point in writing the English (and German et al.) word for Sanskrit in Devanagari? And what should I check in "language articles of other languages"? -- Madden (talk) 10:30, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Madden, the thing i wanna to tell you is that- for languages which don't use Latin script(alphabets) as their official writing system, here on Wikipedia we show article readers how the language's script look like by specifically giving demo at infobox by providing the image of that language's name in its original script; for better understanding you can check them:- 1, 2 and 3. Still if you have any further queries than feel free to ask, Thank you. Bill william compton (talk) 10:54, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Bill, I agree that it's a good idea to show the language name written in its original script. But please use the original name of the language and not the English name! In this case: Write "saṃskṛtam" (संस्कृतम्) instead of "sanskrit" (which is not a Sanskrit word). Madden (talk) 00:10, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Madden, you're correct that real name is saṃskṛtam, so i'm replacing image with another of original name in it. Bill william compton (talk) 00:37, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
The Vampire Diaries (Season 2) Edit
Please can you refrain from just copying and pasting from websites WP:CV If you wish to contribute, please rewrite the description in your own words | G.Light 09:28, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
- Reply: Hi, i don't wanna be offensive, but i think you are going too irrational for this matter. If you could observe the contain i edit on The Vampire Diaries (season 2) than you'd find that its almost different from other summaries mentioned on other websites, but you can't change whole matter. The plot will always be similar nevertheless you "rewrite the description in your own words " again and again. If you've such a big problem than give me a link of any website from where you're thinking; i did copy-paste. Well it hardly matters now because you are already vandalized by User:ClueBot Commons, go and check there. You are new and unexperienced, i'll advice you before doing such childish act you must read and understand policies of Wikipedia. Bill william compton (talk) 09:45, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
I know that all will be similar, but you can't just disagree with the rules of wikipedia. I am aware of that situation and it is currently being reviewed | G.Light 09:57, 12 February 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gazza-l911 (talk • contribs)
Danny Mountain
Did you photograph Danny Mountain? Morbidthoughts (talk) 15:53, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- Not me, but my friend. He had it; i asked and he mailed; why? is there any problem in it? Bill william compton (talk) 18:01, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- You have to properly credit your friend and email a copy of his permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. Morbidthoughts (talk) 19:01, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- I really appreciate you for your advice. But, i don't think there is any need of crediting anyone, because from where i get image file and by whom its my personal matter, unless-until i'm following WP:IUP. Many people don't like to mention their name; yes, in the case if i asked this from another wikipedia user than i would definitely credit him, but this is in between me and my source, who has nothing to do with wikipedia. For further discussion, i humbly ask you to mail me (i can be reached by mail). Bill william compton (talk) 02:03, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
- I've stamped the image as needing evidence of permission from the rightful owner. Whether you have to disclose him is not clear but you should not have claimed credit for the picture as being your work. Morbidthoughts (talk) 02:32, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Danny Mountain in the park.png
Thanks for uploading File:Danny Mountain in the park.png. 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Morbidthoughts (talk) 02:23, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
Vandalism??
How was my change vandalism? I justified my change and if you actually look what I did, then you should agree with it. A match between Bangladesh and India in Bangladesh means Bangladesh should be Team 1 and not Team 2. It is very straightforward logic... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brad 191919191 (talk • contribs) 16:29, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
- If I've done nothing to warrant the warning, then I'll do what I like... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brad 191919191 (talk • contribs) 17:31, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
- First of all keep these things in mind; always start a new section at the bottom of the page not on top, second- don't forget to sign (by using tildes). I cautioned you for your edit on 2011 Cricket World Cup because the "team1" in the cricket template is the team which which bats first, it doesn't matter where was the match; also the order depends on the official draws which made before the series. Search any cricket website and you'll find IND Vs BAN not BAN Vs IND; for e.g. observe this, and please don't remove warning sections from your user talk, now you can see what you did... . Bill william comptonTalk 17:33, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
- That's fine, all you needed to do was undo the edit and explain that. Marking a good faith edit as vandalism is both irrational and immature. And again, I will remove warnings from my user page if I've done nothing to warrant the warning eg: a good faith edit being marked as vandalism. Get off your high horse buddy...
