editHi Foxy Husky! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Russian Civil War that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. Remsense诉 20:32, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Loafiewa. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Maxim gun have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Additionally, as you have already been told, please do not misuse the minor edit checkbox. Loafiewa (talk) 14:18, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2024 Singapore oil spill, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CNA. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

New message to Foxy Husky
editHey, could you please explain a bit why you're replacing more common types of lists in infoboxes with {{Tree list}}
? In my view, if one contemplates a tree, it is almost certain that the better solution in an infobox would be to simplify the list instead. Remsense诉 05:17, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- oh i thought
{{Tree list}}
is a bit more easiler to branch to the army and stuffs - then in this case i apologise for changing the list to
{{Tree list}}
Foxy Husky (talk) 06:01, 5 August 2024 (UTC)- If we need several branches for something, we shouldn't be putting that thing in the infobox, which is meant to be as brief and simple as possible, per WP:INFOBOXPURPOSE. Remsense诉 06:02, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:2MASS J0437 mapgraph.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:2MASS J0437 mapgraph.jpg, which you've attributed to https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/aa5df0. 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 {{permission 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. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Uploading images
editHi Foxy Husky! I wanted to let you know that uploading images on Wikipedia requires that the images be released by the holder of the copyright under a free-content license, such as CC BY or CC BY-SA. Have you ensured that your images comply with these requirements? If they do not, they need to meet all ten non-free content criteria. I have nominated a few of your image uploads for deletion as copyright issues are taken very seriously here. Please let me know if you have any questions. Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 05:32, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Standard Notice: Syrian Civil War
editThis is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in the Syrian Civil War and ISIL. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor. |
As a note, per these community-authorized general sanctions, there is a one-revert rule in place for all articles related to the Syrian Civil War and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, broadly construed. This means that an editor in this area may make no more than one revert per article per 24 hour period, unless an obvious exception applies. Please let me know if you have any questions about this. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:30, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
