Vandalism in "cannot edit places"

[edit]

They're usually hidden in templates where the Current Events page syncs with. eg that one you posted in the discussion was hidden in Portal:Current Events/2008_November_18. you can go places like there, simply by searching it :), and get rid of the vandalism :)Silent Assassin (talk) 11:23, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Linux Mint

[edit]

Since I'm not sure you're following the discussion there, I want to give you the same warning I gave everyone else there:

[L]et me warn everyone involved that there's plainly an edit war still going on over whether or not the political material should remain in the article in the interim. Let me remind you that WP:3RR says, "Remember that an administrator may still act whenever they believe a user's behavior constitutes edit warring, and any user may report edit-warring, even if the three-revert rule has not been breached. The rule is not an entitlement to revert a page a specific number of times." If the edit war continues, someone is going to page–protect this article or some editors are going to get blocked, or both.

Let me note that my opinion about whether this material should or should not be in the article apparently is the same as yours; see my Third Opinion on the talk page there. The other editors there appear to be working towards a solution which will keep the material posted. Don't disrupt that process by continuing the edit war there; if nothing else, you'll be working against your own interest if you do. — TRANSPORTERMAN (TALK) 17:51, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Somervale.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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.

File permission problem with File:Lamp small.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Lamp small.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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 09:09, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
