Hi Pucks. I cut your edit back out of the BITU because it appeared to be a copyright from http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/pages/history/story0034.html. I would encourage you to use the source that you have and rewrite the history in your own words. It would be great to have the information in the article.
BTW - welcome to Wikipedia! Let me know if I can be of any help. Cheers.--Bookandcoffee 03:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.
If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.
If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Papa November 22:45, 26 August 2007 (UTC)Orphaned non-free media (File:SCHSC.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:SCHSC.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:04, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Andrew Holness.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Andrew Holness.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:25, 28 August 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 05:25, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
St. Catherine High
[edit]Greetings Pucks,
You placed the following in a comment in St. Catherine High:
TO WIKIPEDIA PAGE EDITORS THE FOLLOWING PAGE EDIT AS OF SEPTEMBER 08, 2009 CONTAINS INFORMATION RELATED DIRECTLY TO THE SCHOOL ALL IS ENCYCLOPEDIC. I APPRECIATE THE PRUNING DONE BUT AS THIS IS MY SCHOOL IN JAMAICA THE CURRENT INFORMATION IS IMPORTANT TO JAMAICANS. THANK YOU. THE HEAD STUDENTS SUCH AS HEAD BOY ARE IMPOSTANT INFORMATION IT WILL BE UPDATED AS SOON AS A NEW ONE IS SELECTED. WE FOLLOW THE UK STYLE SCHOOL SYSTEM, MY WIKINAME IS PUCKS
One good test of what constitutes encyclopaedic information is "Will this be of interest/relevance in 10, 20, 50 years time?" Of-the-moment information such as the current head boy/girl clearly fails such a test. If this were not the case then you can be sure that Infobox school would have fields for that kind of information.
Much good work has been done on this article so do not be put off. But do try to discover established practice on Wikipedia and to fit in with it. You will find the time you spend here more productive and enjoyable that way. -Arb. (talk) 14:00, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit]The article RMS Saxon has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material from [3] to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:12, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Repost of Template:Infobox professor
[edit] A tag has been placed on Template:Infobox professor requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: 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 article's discussion directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead recreating the page. Thank you.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

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.
