License tagging for Image:Falcon FG.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Falcon FG.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 "Edit this 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) 05:10, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

September 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Alexandra Hamilton, Duchess of Abercorn has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

FYI

Hiya, thanks for your help with the vandals. :) Just as an FYI though, users (even anons) are allowed to blank templates and block messages from their talkpages. See WP:BLANKING. So if I put a block message on a page and somebody deletes it, I don't really mind. They're still blocked, and if by blanking their talkpage, it de-escalates the situation, that's fine. Now, if they were blanking an unblock template so they could try multiple unblocks, that's a different story. But just blanking block messages or other warnings? Nah, it's okay. :) Anyway, keep up the great work, --El on ka 05:51, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

Hi - I've fulfilled your request for rollback. Please remember to use it only for the removal of obvious vandalism. You can find out more at WP:RBK or ask me for any help. Thanks for your hard work. Pedro : Chat 08:49, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?

On what basis are you rolling back changes because YOU find them "unconstructive"?

Who the hell died and made YOU god of all WIKI creation?

If someone makes a change which is in a TRIVIA section which identifies TRIVIA about the thing in question where do you get off eliminating them without any discussion of the matter?

If you find that something I reverted shouldn't have been, please notify me. As for the warning message, it is auto-generated and automatically added with the reversion. jackelfive (talk) 04:33, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain why a legitimate link to an external source has been removed? The information is far from 'unconstructive' and my comments in the 'talk page' have also been rolled back... Solutioneering (talk) 07:37, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry it must have been an accident. I have undone my reversion. Thanks for letting me know. jackelfive (talk) 07:40, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

52 Infantry Brigade

I have attempted theree times now to edit the web page concerning 52 Infantry Brigade but each time for some reason you have decided to revert it. I am the Chief of Staff of 52 Infantry Brigade so am probably better placed than you to determine what is correct. The information on future reorganisation is 12 months out of date and completely wrong. The Brigade is not the Armys focus for SLE and the units you say are coming to us as part of this reorg are not and are now units within other Brigades. Please undo your reverts and stay out of teh Armys business. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.197.39 (talk) 11:09, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted it because you did not explain why you removed such a large amount of content. In future, please provide and edit summary, in this case saying you were giving the article an update.--Jackelfive^(talk)

Explanations of Canadian support for John Kerry

You recently reverted my deletion of this section. This section is original research and makes no reference to any studies that explain Canadian support for Kerry. The only source cited was from a column in a pro-Republican newspaper that also provided no evidence for its conclusions. Furthermore, other explanations are possible.

If you have no objections, I will delete this section. Please tell me how detailed the edit summary should be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by The Four Deuces (talk • contribs) 23:21, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted it because you left no edit summary, and you removed a very large amount of content. Before deleting such a large amount, I highly recommend discussing what you plan to do in the article's talk page. And then, in the edit summary, you should state why you removed it. In this case, you should mention that it was not properly sourced. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 00:55, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did enter my views in the Talk page October 6th, but no one replied. There was discussion about removing the article in 2004, but no concensus was reached. The Four Deuces (talk) 03:22, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, go ahead with it, just make sure you clearly explain your intentions in the edit summary box. Jackelfive^(talk) 10:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

look at the talk page of that article

Sorry I thoought it was vandalism (removal of content) because you didn't explain why in your edit summary. Now that I know, I'll remove your warning from your talk page. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 05:54, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you remove it. That guy who keeps readding it is the one who is vandalizing if anything if you look at what tyheiy're adding. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 05:55, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

John McCain presidential campaign, 2008

Could you revert that IP user's edit again? He deleted the material, simply saying, "see talk" even though consensus has shifted our way. I warned him about edit warring so if he reverts again, I can get him blocked. AzureFury (talk | contribs) 05:59, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see, I just quickly looked over the talk page, I didn't count up the consensus of votes. I'll tell the IP why. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 06:02, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

wikipedia is not a vote and they clearly do not have consensus —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.232.251.177 (talk) 06:03, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

by the way even if wikipedia is a vote tyhey do not have the votes to add this material. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 06:06, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

When it comes to removal of content, there sould be a vote on the talk page. There are more saying they want to include the article than oppose, so it should be kept on. Only remove the content when there is strong opposition for it to be kept. In this case it doesn't even come close. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 06:10, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

no its the opposte. when you want to add defemation you have to have majority and they dont have majority. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 06:12, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

It is currently 4 - 5 in favour for it to be removed. Wait until there is a CLEAR CONSENSUS. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 06:16, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

please read wikipedia policy. if you want to add that kind of material you need clear consenss. they do not have it and then when i remove it clasim i need to consuensus to remove it. untrue. you need consesnus to add it. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 06:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

The material was already there when the vote started. The vote wasn't "should it be added", but "why was it removed". Also as a word of advice, there is no need to vote on pages, IP's votes are not counted. Thanks, Jackelfive^(talk) 06:23, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

thats not true. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 06:34, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Let me remind you 96.232.251.177 that IP's votes do not count on talk pages. So your vote nor the "vandals" vote counts. I have voted in favour of keeping the material, so it is clearly far from consensus that the material should be removed. Also, if you are going to have an agument with AzureFury, please take it away from my talk page and maybe on to yours. Jackelfive^(talk) 07:03, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ok fine but i was just reponsind to him. i cant tell ghim on his talk bc he keeps deleting my comments so i have no choice but to say back here. what hes sayiong isnt true. sorry about that. 96.232.251.177 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 07:04, 7 November 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Endings for metric unit

Thank you for changing the spelling on several articles including Jeep Compass. The appropriate variety of English for a nation should be used, and this is a U.S.-related article. Please note that according to WP:UNITS guidelines: "American English uses -er endings for metric units: liter, kilometer, etc." I will revert to the original preferred spelling. Thanks!

An exciting opportunity to get involved!

As a member of the Aviation WikiProject or one of its subprojects, you may be interested in testing your skills in the Aviation Contest! I created this contest, not to pit editor against editor, but to promote article improvement and project participation and camraderie. Hopefully you will agree with its usefulness. Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately! Since this contest is just beginning, please give feedback here, or let me know what you think on my talkpage. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 00:44, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of C & G Computers

A tag has been placed on C & G Computers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

The userbox mitigation was implemented in 2007 where userboxes in the Template namespace were moved to user namespaces.

Orphaned non-free image File:C&G Computers Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:C&G Computers Logo.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 "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.

Having read the information on Wiki autobiography, I realise this might be against the code of practise. The article is indeed about me but hopefully completely factual rather than idolatory! For instance the RAF history and my own history. No reviews of concerts have been posted. However, if you think the article is too flattering, please delete it. I have a website which is where I post reviews, observations and general opinion. So will just add the information from this site (such as RAF ancestory etc) to that one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahowardwilliams (talk • contribs) 09:28, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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.

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!
