License tagging for Image:14093.jpeg

Thanks for uploading Image:14093.jpeg. 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. 14:00, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Problems with upload of Image:Welch-1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Welch-1.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 13:11, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Richard Dormer

The article Richard Dormer has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. B music ian 14:45, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Photo of codex leicester taken by practice room.jpeg

Thank you for uploading File:Photo of codex leicester taken by practice room.jpeg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Fut.Perf. ☼ 19:40, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Field Records

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Field Records, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Edwardx (talk) 18:45, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Public Relations Exercise

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Public Relations Exercise, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It 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 encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Conflict of interest declarations

Thank you for declaring your conflict of interest. However, the declarations should go on the article talk pages rather than on the articles themselves. Can you please move them? You should also add a declaration to your own user page, and must do so in a specific way if you have been compensated in any way for your editing. If you have questions about how to do this, feel free to ask here. Melcous (talk) 02:06, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

October 2018

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:51, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Drm310 hi, thanks for this. I tho k I’ve done it, but as you can probably conclude, I’m not very good at this!

Multiple accounts

You still appear to be using two accounts, this and Sadpastie, which is not allowed and can lead to you being blocked. Please explain. Melcous (talk) 21:00, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Response

(talk) I was made aware of this and and now only using rankxgirl. Be assured there was not to commit foul play or ‘puppety’ - a term I have just been made aware of, but simply that the rankxgirl account was not linked to an email and I had forgotten the password. If I have used the sadpastie account recently it is purely in error and likely that the devise signed me in automatically. I am more than happy for this account to be deleted. RankXgirl (talk) 06:07, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you used the Sadpastie account to send an acknowledgement for one of my edits. This means that you are still logging into Wikipedia with that account. Please log that account out of Wikipedia, clear any session data from any devices you use, and abandon the account forever. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 17:45, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And you have again used the Sadpastie account to comment on the talk page of Rachel O'Riordan about an edit you made using this account. You need to immediately stop using multiple accounts. Melcous (talk) 08:07, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You now appear to be editing while logged out to avoid this question and the scrutiny. Please explain. Melcous (talk) 12:30, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(talk) On the contrary - I'm hugely proud of the edits I made. My sadpastie account is not in use and if you have the facility to do so, please delete it. I realise that edits were made when I wasn't logged in - this is becuase i had to reset my password and it took a while. For what its worth, I think that following my edits the page is now much more functional, informative and fact based. Again, apolgies if I have acted in a way which is not permitted. I'm genuinely just trying my best and am learning with each edit that I do. I am more than happy to put all of these edits in my name.

(talk) I also thought that I had declared my connection to the subject? I'm quite happy to just leave the article alone if that resolves the concerns.

You were advised as a user with a conflict of interest that you should not be editing the article directly at all, but should instead propose any changes on the talk page. That you have added a huge amount of content to the article, some of which is promotional, while logged out, looks like you were trying to avoid doing that. You should not edit it again. Melcous (talk) 13:28, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
