ϢereSpielChequers is wishing you a griffin's claw full of Seasons Greetings! Whether you celebrate your hemisphere's Solstice or Christmas, Diwali, Hogmanay, Hanukkah, Lenaia, Festivus or even the Saturnalia, this is a special time of year for almost everyone!
Spread the holiday cheer by adding {{subst:User:WereSpielChequers/Dec21}} to your friends' talk pages.
The article Sophia Tolstoy's rebuttal of her husband Leo's accusations has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
content of the page as well as sources have been added to the page of Sophia Tolstaya. This page is now duplicative, the topic does not have sufficient notability in itself and the title of the page is misleading (because the response consists of two separate novellas, which need not be referred to as one item)
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
Happy Holidays
[edit]
Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. ―Buster7 ☎

| Great work on List of paintings by Amrita Sher-Gil. It shows just what you can achieve with consistent effort. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:32, 30 October 2024 (UTC) |
- Thankyou kindly @Philafrenzy: . Still a long way to go. What is the correct licence for her paintings please? Whispyhistory (talk) 06:00, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- If only there was just one simple answer. Any painted in India must be considered first published there and will qualify for the Indian public domain licence. Those painted elsewhere probably need a licence relevant to that place. In addition, every one also needs a licence explaining why it is out of copyright in the U.S. because Wikimedia Commons files are hosted in the U.S. and files must be out of copyright in the original country and the U.S. as well. (This rule is often ignored) Philafrenzy (talk) 19:45, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you... will go through as I have many more to add and I want it to look perfect. Whispyhistory (talk) 07:20, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
