Orphaned fair use image (Image:Diearmbanduhr-1-.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Diearmbanduhr-1-.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 21:30, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Micronation Wikiproject

I've published a proposal to gauge the level of interest in setting up a micronation Wikiproject, which I thought might be of interest to you based on your past contributions. Comments and suggestions are welcome: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals#Micronations --Gene_poole 02:01, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and thanks for your comments. I wonder if you wouldn't mind emailing me privately: georgivs@nospam.com.au --Gene_poole 23:04, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:GOODBYEWINDOW-1-.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:GOODBYEWINDOW-1-.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 10:53, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Kaolin Mushroom Farms

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Kaolin Mushroom Farms, by Vegaswikian (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Kaolin Mushroom Farms seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Kaolin Mushroom Farms, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Kaolin Mushroom Farms itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 02:07, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Your RfA

I noticed that you blanked your RfA. Instead, you should note below your original statement that you are instead withdrawing, not blank the whole page. Good luck next time around! GoodnightmushTalk 21:56, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your RfA

Sorry your first RfA went so badly. I think you should take some time and get aquainted with Admin functions before you try again. I suggest you check out other people's RfA's. See what it is that is being looked for in an administrator and decide what areas you need to improve in to reach that point.

You said that you were interested in doing anti-vandalism work, yet I notice that in your edit history there is no anti-vandalism experience. I happen to be a recent changes patroller myself and I would happily help you to learn how to fight vandalism. It is a task that would give you some experience on the administrative and maintainance side of Wikipedia. I welcome you to send me a message if you are interested. Trusilver 22:16, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I do fight vandalism but I usually forget to write it in my edit history and it is on a small scale. ''[[User:Kitia|Kitia'']] 14:00, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kaolin Mushroom Farms Nudge

This is a friendly nudge; about 3 weeks ago, I defended Kaolin Mushroom Farms from being deleted on the basis that a) you didn't want it deleted and b) that I'd help guide you into getting it in shape. But you don't seem to have done any work on it since then. Can I offer any assistance to get you to do a little work on it? Let me know what I can do; it's not really a subject of interest to me, so really, you need to do the work, but I'll be happy to help you make sure it doesn't get deleted next time. --Thespian 10:26, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Best Friend's Day

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Best Friend's Day, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. 24.4.253.249 04:48, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cite your sources

I notice that you're adding a lot of information to articles without mentioning where you got the info. Remember, you need to cite your sources and not add Original Research to articles. 24.4.253.249 19:03, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists.

A tag has been placed on Tsuneyo Toyonaga, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Tsuneyo Toyonaga is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Tsuneyo Toyonaga saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Fairview, Erie County, Pennsylvania. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.fairviewtownship.com/history.asp, http://www.fairviewtownship.com/schools.asp, etc. in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

  • If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
  • If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Fairview, Erie County, Pennsylvania with a link to where we can find that note;
  • If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Fairview, Erie County, Pennsylvania with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Fairview, Erie County, Pennsylvania saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

There is no indication (nor does he claim) that he owns the copyright to the text on the website. I think it's still a violation. If the article can be rewritten, she might meet WP:BIO. Oh, and BTW, the correct spelling of her name is Rebeca Mauleon. --Evb-wiki 17:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. I see you've just recreated the article. However, I deleted it because it is still very similar to the original article - so similar that it is a derivative work. To escape copyright, you need to write the article completely in your own original words, and use the sources to back the facts contained it. I'll not delete it immediately, but it will be deleted shortly by someone else, or by me within a short period. Good luck, and get in touch if you need a hand. Splash - tk 20:06, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, again. Now I see you have reverted the trimmed-down article. I explained above why the article won't do in that form - it is still a copyright violation. Please don't do that again, and try to write a new article in your own original words. Actually, you might consider a simple redirect to the suggested merge target? Thanks, Splash - tk 22:43, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's been deleted before Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michelle Kim, review that decision and see whether the proposed article overcomes the problems that caused it to be deleted in the first place. Carlossuarez46 21:10, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Creating Supercentenarian Articles

Hi Kitia, nice to see you taking the initiative to create articles like Clara Huhn. Eventually we should have at least one article for the entire top 100, unless the case simply was 'anonymous' and little/no information is available.Ryoung122 02:41, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings,

Thanks for the update on Gladys Swetland. I'm bewildered as to why this 21-year-old fancies himself so important. There are a lot of supercentenarian articles, and many are aged less than 113. So, I question what the point is here...why go after a defensible target? Ryoung122 23:35, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:26855655-1-.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:26855655-1-.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Image source problem with Image:AElogo-1-.jpg

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:AElogo-1-.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:22, 7 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Bk windx2-1-.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bk windx2-1-.jpg. 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box.

Speedy deletion of Tourism in Saudi Arabia

A tag has been placed on Tourism in Saudi Arabia, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per speedy deletion criterion A1.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 23:30, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly, I do think that her death may result in the article being deleted. Coverage needed to be at least three newspapers, and it was only in one. Had she lived to become the state's oldest, coverage may have been sufficient.

However, you could argue that coverage of her 110th and 111th birthdays may also count. Thus, I suggest you find as many articles as you can, and link them to the article.Ryoung122 20:33, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Pekka-Eric Auvinen. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing.

WP:BIO

Hi Kitia

Please can you take some tine to study the notability guideline WP:BIO. I have reverted your unmerger of the articles Flossie Page and Gertrude Baines, because neither of these articles meets WP:BIO's requirement of substantive coverage in multiple reliable sources.

These articles which do not meet WP:BIO could be deleted, but I have chosen to take the time to merge them to retain the information there and to give interested editors the opportunity to improve the referencing in order to demonstrate notability. I have objection at all to unmerger if notability has been established per WP:BIO, but if you persist in simply reverting the merger without improving the articles to meet WP:BIO, then I will simply save myself the time and nominate them at AfD.

Your call. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:37, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a pity that you prefer to unmerge the articles rather than improve them, but both are now AFDed. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:58, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you removed the copyvio tag on Rassim al-Jumaili. It does plagiarize that obituary, making it a copyvio.

PROD tags

Hi Kitia

It is quite acceptable to remove the {{prod}} tag from an article if you disagree with it. However, per Wikipedia:Proposed_deletion, please note the removal of the tag in the edit summary, and also explain why they disagree with the proposed deletion.

The latest prod you removed without comment was this edit to Elaine Lorillard, but I have seen others before, such as this. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
