I like the logo, for what it's worth :) I've added a favicon too. It's just the DC logo, I tried various figures but I just couldn't get them right at 16x16 pixels. If you want to replace it, you just need to upload a file as favicon.ico - but I hope you like it! (you probably won't see it until you have cleared your cache and refreshed - these favicons are sticky) -- sannse (talk) 15:27, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Admin So how do you get to ba an administrater?

Darth Steves Please revert the changes made by the user "Darth Steves" and the anonymous user from IP 24.238.191.123. I have tried to communicate to Darth Steves that this is a DCAU wiki, and not a DC comics wiki, but he continues to insert information and lately, images, from the comics.

I hope you will not consider his request to be an administrator at least until he grasps the scope and purpose of this wiki.

yea, I think we should change it from a DCAU to a DC comics wiki, because the DC comics have many good aspects that the DCAU do not have. Steves 14:10, 26 May 2006 (UTC) I want to be clear that my statements were not intended as an attack on you. I was just trying to communicate the purpose of this wiki to you and prevent entries that fall outside its scope. I also feel that DC comics are typically excellent, however that is not the purpose of this wiki. There is a wiki project for the DC comics universe, and if you prefer to write articles about the comics, that would be the place to do it. Of course, if you want to write about the animated universe, you're certainly welcome to do it here. You can find the DC comics wiki here DC Database Project (sorry to clutter up your talk page, Tim) --BoneGnawer 15:45, 26 May 2006 (UTC) Admin Thanks for the promotion and vote of confidence. --BoneGnawer 12:56, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Rubedeau I think it's in your best interest to ban this uses, as he doesn't seem to grasp the concept of "copyright". All he did was submitting writings from other sites, clearly without permission.

Restricting Edits to Registered Members It looks like most copyright infringements are done by unregistered users. It would probably be a good idea to restrict edits to registered members, like in DC Database Project. Just a thought. ThailogTalk

You still haven't answered my question. It's very annoying to see anonymous contributors taking content from other sites. I really think that closing the Wiki to unregistered contributors would discourage that. I was able to find two copyright violations [1] [2] and seeing as this anonymous user is submitting things galore, he probably took the other stuff I can't track down from other sites too. Your thoughts on the subject?― Thailog 22:29, 3 January 2007 (UTC) Also, you might wanna consider appointing a new Admin. BoneGnawer has been absent for over a month. ― Thailog 16:34, 1 January 2007 (UTC) Needless to say that this user is Mockingbird‎. Also, the two weeks are up. What's it gonna be? Bureaucrat, admin, or nothing? ― Thailog 18:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC) Absent Admins Please read this. I've been waiting for some answers for weeks. You and BoneGnawer have been absent for almost a month. ― Thailog 16:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Today was a perfect example of how much we need an active admin/bureaucrat around here. I see here that potential administrators must have a unanimous vote of at least three users. I'd nominate myself there, but we hardly have that many active users, so that might be useless. So, I'd like to nominate myself here, if that's ok. I log in every day and am one of the two most active members. It's just very counterproductive to have edit wars with uneducated users who conduct themselves in such uncivil manners, all the while trying to get some work done. Please take my request into consideration. ― Thailog 18:59, 1 January 2007 (UTC) Links to keep an eye on

Warp Darkmatter moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Warp Darkmatter, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

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 Warp Darkmatter requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://foxsfantasticalden.blogspot.com/2016/03/blosc-profiles-warp-darkmatter.html and https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/fantasmic/warp-darkmatter-t598.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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.

[edit]

Control copyright icon Hello The Evan McClintock! While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. JW 1961 Talk 22:00, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
