Become a great editor

Being a member of the welcoming committee on Wikipedia I encourage you to help Wikipedia in any way you can to increase human knowledge. If you have credible information about a topic with verifiable references please feel free to add to that topic. If there is no article on that topic, why not start it, with time others will add to it and it may even make the featured articles list. By doing this, I have been able to make over 2500 page edits in both new articles, article improvement etc. Furthermore, I encourage you to aim to be a member of the autoconfirmed users[[1]] group as this will greatly improve your Wikipedia experience. You can do this by making at least 10 credible edits on Wikipedia and remaining on Wikipedia for four (4) days. Check out this page for tips. .

Replaceable fair use File:2009-ChrisR.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:2009-ChrisR.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. We hope (talk) 15:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Stillpower.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Stillpower.png. 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. Melesse (talk) 10:08, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Stillpower

Hello, Steveswei, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia!

I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you worked on, Stillpower, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

edit the page
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page

It helps to explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the Help Desk. Thanks again for contributing! Nat Gertler (talk) 22:38, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Stillpower for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Stillpower is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stillpower until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Nat Gertler (talk) 03:51, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I saw by your edit that you consider this an interesting and valuable book, and can understand why you think the book should have a page on that basis. However, we require to books to be notable, and what Wikipedia means by notable is really more a matter of being noted, of having received significant attention. Before arguing against the book's nomination for deletion, I suggest you review the Wikipedia guidelines for notability before placing your argument, as an argument is best made in terms of Wikipedia policy. --Nat Gertler (talk) 04:18, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your desire to use Wikipedia to spread the word of this book. However, Wikipedia makes a very poor form of promotion. People only find the Wikipedia page when they are looking for something already, and when they find it, it's apt not to be the page as you'd want it to be, as other editors can come in and add sourced criticism. There are hundreds of thousands of books published each year, and we do need some standards as to what gets included. Should this book prove to be influential, it's like to receive the sort of third-party coverage that we are looking for; if the decision is made to delete the page now, that does not prevent the page from being reformed at a later date when there's significantly more reference out there. ---Nat Gertler (talk) 16:18, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:FlavorConnect Logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:FlavorConnect Logo.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:21, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet WP:CORP - references are all discussions of the individual products (which don't go to notability of corporation per WP:INHERITORG, database listings, or announcements from partners.
