Speedy deletion of Military museum Lešany

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Military museum Lešany 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 company or corporation, 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. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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 companies and corporations.

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 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.

Waldorf education

[edit]

RE your recent edits: an article about an educational system that comprises more than 1,000 schools isn't the place for information about individual schools. See the talk page. hgilbert (talk) 18:32, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please read Wikipedia's policies on Original research before editing this article further. hgilbert (talk) 23:03, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on other people again, as you did at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Museum_of_Applied_Arts,_Vienna&diff=658953726&oldid=658796951, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Personal attacks are not tolerated. If you continue you ll be blocked without further notice.

Copyrighted material

[edit]

Please read WP:IOWN or how to add copyrighted material without getting Wikipedia into troubles. Thanks! -- Magioladitis (talk)

My work was not marked as a 'potential infringment of copyright.' My work was reverted. I am deeply offended by these actions. I suppose that you can run this club the way that you want, except, I do not think you are running it according to your self professed rules. I do not believe that you, or the original reverter, have any idea of who owns the copyright to the words which I added to Wikipedia, and I am almost positive that you have no idea as to the details of Austrian Copyright law.

All that I see is that work that I did, work which the Museum thanked me for, has been reverted. And that after I corrected that ignorant reversion, you reverted it again.

So yay, thanks. Thanks for demonstrating the nature of the wikipedia process.

No tagging the article that it is potentially infringing, just revert it all.

That is a stupid process which helps to destroy wikipedia.


No. It's not. It's a way to help Wikipedia in getting in trouble. There is no reason to tag as 'potential infringment of copyright'. An admin noticed the copyright problem and warned you. You only have now to provide enough evidence that you are the copyright holder or acting under permission. If you want to help the Museum and Wikipedia, you have to act via legal routes otherwise you create more problems than you try to fix. Thanks for submitting your work but since you agree to release your contribution under the CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL, the community and the Foundation need to be sure that this is really what you want to do and what you provided really belongs to you. Thanks! -- Magioladitis (talk) 07:45, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you did these texts for the Museum, ti's wonderful and good job! Please, help Wikipedia use this material but in a way that it won't create a conflict between Wikipedia and the Museum. If you need help of how to do that, please send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation, ideally using the email template at WP:CONSENT. -- Magioladitis (talk) 07:59, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) 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. --SineBot (talk) 07:45, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
