Assassin's Creed

[edit]

I denied the protection request for Assassin's Creed because the article had not been that heavily vandalized. Semi-protection is usually a last-ditch effort to save an article, and I only semi-protect pages when I see that many of the last 50 edits have been vandalism/vandalism reversions and that it has occurred just in the past 5-6 days. The history of the last 50 edits goes back nearly two weeks, and not all of it is vandalism. If it gets much worse, then I will protect. Nishkid64 14:38, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


License tagging for Image:Hodgman ap01 hi.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Hodgman ap01 hi.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. 06:05, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Hodgman_ap01_hi.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Hodgman_ap01_hi.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- SteinbDJ · talk · contributions 20:33, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Chewing gum. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write practically anything you want. Please refrain from using foul language as you did in the edit summary. Although I do appreciate the help in getting citations! Bped1985 (talk) 07:18, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, lets take a breather here. In that notice that I posted I specified exactly this: Please refrain from using foul language as you did in the edit summary. Although I do appreciate the help in getting citations!. I was not referring to the content that you added into the article. I was referring to the unnecessary profanity that you used in the edit summary. There is no need for it. Bped1985 (talk) 23:25, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Regardless of how you feel or what justifications you may have, pointless profanity is NOT ALLOWED on Wikipedia. If you're confused; reference WP:CIVIL or WP:PROFA. Furthermore, I'll have you know that patrollers and other editors that fixate more on maintenance tasks are every bit as crucial as an editor who focuses more on adding material. Without WP:RCP Wikipedia wold be over-run with vandalism. My point is, profanity and potentially offensive material is only to be used on Wikipedia when it is treated in an encyclopedic matter. Your entry into the edit summary was not encyclopedic. Bped1985 (talk) 02:24, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
