Segall and Sons

I believe it is now fixed. Kukini 14:30, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to start by reading this page: Policies_and_guidelines. Pay attention to "How are policies enforced," where you will see an explanation and links for arbitration. I am not an administrator here, but just another editor, like yourself. Your page likely went through an Articles for deletion process prior to deletion. You might want to learn about this as well. If it did not, it must have been seen as in breach of a policy of wikipedia. Good luck...let me know how it goes and if I can be of any further help. Kukini 06:28, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion on an article you started

AfD Nomination Columbus Square Mall

I've nominated the article Columbus Square Mall for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Columbus Square Mall satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Columbus Square Mall. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of Columbus Square Mall during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion. Inner Earth 10:31, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Columbus Square Shopping Center, COLUMBUS, GA.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Columbus Square Shopping Center, COLUMBUS, GA.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 02:05, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Flipper.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Flipper.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Image copyright problem with Image:Bartletts-Ferry.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Bartletts-Ferry.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 21:14, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

George W. Andrews Lake

I noticed you reverted an edit that added an object noun lake to the first sentence. Would you please explain why you did that. As the sentence reads now, it means that the lake IS the Army Corps of Engineers. In reality, it is a lake BUILT BY the Corps. Thanks. Truthanado (talk) 23:51, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree Image:Bcerf.jpg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Bcerf.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. I've also listed your image of John Daly on the same page. I used to enjoy What's My Line so I enjoy the photos, but it appears that these photos aren't "free." Thank you. Orlady (talk) 23:55, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File:Bigvalley.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Bigvalley.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

License tagging for File:36westernterminus.JPG

Thanks for uploading File:36westernterminus.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:05, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Pine Mountain Range

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 Pine Mountain Range 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Northhighlandsdam.JPG

A tag has been placed on File:Northhighlandsdam.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of Copyrighted aerial photograph (Google Maps water mark clearly visible). For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
