Orphaned non-free image (Image:Production Information.jpg)

⚠

Thanks for uploading Image:Production Information.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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. NAHID 10:53, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Common Arrangement of Work Sections

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Common Arrangement of Work Sections, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.productioninformation.org/CAWS.asp. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:47, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Redirected.

Hello, just wanted to let you know that I redirected Caws to CAWS, which—if I understand correctly—is the correct capitalization. If I was wrong, feel free to un-redirect. Oh, and welcome. :) · AndonicO ^Hail! 16:02, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Avanti Construction

A tag has been placed on Avanti Construction requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

AfD nomination of Avanti Construction

I have nominated Avanti Construction, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Avanti Construction. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. — Coren ^(talk) 15:44, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi. As you can see by the above, the speedy deletion has been overturned, and the article is now under discussion at deletion debate. This can be a confusing process for people who aren't familiar with it. Like deletion review, it is meant to last five days, although if no consensus develops in that time or if a backlog develops, it may go on longer. There are some helpful guidelines and tips for debating deletions here and here. The best thing you can probably do, as Coren's note above suggests, is edit the article to address the concerns. As I mentioned at my talk page, more secondary sources to verify the notability of the subject would be helpful. Primary sources can be used to add details to an article, but can't be used to verify notability claims. Good luck with developing the article. Please let me know at my talk page if I can clarify any of this further. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:12, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

discussion still in process--you can check status at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Avanti Construction. If it gets deleted, try an article on the current project, apparently "Constructing Excellence"--but write it more descriptive, dont just reuse the text, include the information about the earlier and later projects, give a reference to UK govt. announcements and any articles there are in trade papers. Make it more concrete. If there are any actual demonstration projects, link to them. 18:36, 27 February 2008 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs)

This is a sound suggestion. I have also proposed a way forward on my talk page which you should watch since I will post future replies there. BlueValour (talk) 04:32, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Avanti Construction

I'd like to say in the lead when it started. When was it and can you source it, pl? BlueValour (talk) 02:27, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Machiavelli,, between material and Avanti's editing, a really excellent job was done. congratulations to you both. DGG (talk) 18:24, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Image fair use

Hi, you need to add a fair-use rationale to the Avanti logo image or it will be deleted. Please feel free to adapt one from Image:Arms-kirklees.jpg. BlueValour (talk) 00:23, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
