Ola High School (Georgia) protection level

[edit]

Hello Daniel. On 22 September 2015 you template-protected Ola High School (Georgia) for page moves (log). Did you perhaps misclick when protecting the page? Thanks, Evad37 [talk] 02:09, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Evad, I'm guessing that's what I did. Fixed now :) Daniel (talk) 21:29, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

someone you blocked before is doing vandalism again

[edit]

A vandalism only account is back again and doing nothing but vandalizing articles with lame stupidity. [1] You blocked them previously this month for doing this before. No edits that aren't vandalism. Dream Focus 21:28, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good timing on the post Dream Focus, I was only going to be online for five minutes and you caught me! Blocked for a week.

Hello, I am querying your deletion, you state (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.firebreak.com.au/act-limestone_plains.html), I am confused the webpage you refer to is actually a page I have created and have maintained since 1994, so can I ask that you undelete the above Draft, and allow me to make sure the information on www.firebreak.com.au meets the Wikipedia copyright guidelines

thankyou Grumpy fire (talk) 01:28, 21 November 2015 (UTC) Grumpyfire 

   Grumpy fire, I don't mind undeleting it, but you'll need to do one or both of the following:

   File a ticket through WP:OTRS giving Wikipedia permission to use the material.
   Place a comment on the website that gives up the content as fair use.

   I'd recommend that you do the first (OTRS) before doing the second, since that would ensure that Wikipedia would be able to use the content. The problem with just stating it on here is that we can't really verify that you are you, whereas we could do this via you e-mailing OTRS. Placing a fair use disclaimer on the bottom of your page would be helpful, but it'd pretty much require that you insert a Creative Commons license that satisfied Wikipedia, which would likely be this CC license. If you want to insert this, that should do the job as well but I'd recommend also doing the OTRS ticket just as a safety precaution and a general CYA type of deal. It'd also be good since they'd be able to walk you through the process of doing this and also help determine what you can do to preserve your rights over the work. I'm not terribly familiar with the process, so all I can really do is point you in their general direction. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:33, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

Tokyogirl79 hey thanks for this will do both as you suggest, with regard to the http://www.firebreak.com.au do I have to place a fair use disclaimer on all the pages or just the main page? Grumpy fire (talk) 07:02, 21 November 2015 (UTC)Grumpy fire 

   It's best to make it visible on all pages just in case, since usually people will just take a quick look at the page to see if there's a copyright disclaimer. You could probably get around this a little by creating a page for the copyright information and then putting it in the header bar in its own little tab. That way it'd be visible to anyone coming into the page (you could label it something like "fair use rationale" or "copyright information"). Since it'd be in the header bar (which appears to be on all of the pages), you wouldn't have to add it manually to every single page, which can be very time consuming.

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Sebastian Robertson article rewrite

[edit]

Dear Daniel, I just wrote and published an article in the place of an article that you had nominated for deletion earlier this year about Sebastian Robertson, son of the The Band's Robbie Robertson. Looking at the deletion discussion, the page was deemed Wikipedia:Autobiography and Wikipedia:Too soon and was deleted for both of those reasons.

Based on the research that I did on Mr. Robertson, I feel that Wikipedia:Too soon no longer qualifies, as his work as a children's author has been reviewed by Rolling Stone, Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and School Library Journal amongst others. The latter three all wrote reviews of his most recent book just this past year, in fact. There are dedicated articles about Robertson and his work as an author and composer in Rolling Stone, Huffington Post, and American Songwriter, and he has been referenced in Entertainment Weekly, Sound & Vision, and numerous other publications. I sourced many of these publications in my article, which you can see listed in the references section.

Also it is definitely not an autobiography, as I am not Sebastian Robertson. I just have been taking an interest in Robbie Robertson lately, and am fulfilling a personal interest in researching him and his music. It was through this that I came upon his son Sebastian's story, so I decided to write about him.

Also please note that everything in the article has been sourced to the very best of my ability. There are 22 sources listed in the new article.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and I hope you have a great new year!

Hi, I talked to a member of the Mandolin Cafe forum this morning, requesting a photo for Wikipedia. The conversation: http://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/showthread.php?121519-Picture-request

The photo is here:
File:1925 Gibson F5.jpg

I know this is not the end of the process; can you guide me to getting the permission done correctly? What do I need to have him fill out? Where do we need to send it. Any help would be appreciated.Jacqke (talk) 02:31, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Marinators.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Marinators.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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}} 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:25, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
