Commercial use of Image:Palmerston North Square Panorama.jpg[edit]
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Palmerston North Square Panorama.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Palmerston North Square Panorama.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).
If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.
If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.
If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Palmerston North Square Panorama.jpg 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. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 03:33, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
iPass[edit]
Hi. I had a look at the iPass and I can understand your frustration. I'll keep it on my watchlist in case he/she pops up again. Sometimes if you just warn someone like this, they'll stop. Just post a warning on their talk page (warnings located here) whenever they "forget" to provide an edit summary, remove content, etc. Nine times out of ten, someone who just edits one page will stop if they're warned. I went ahead and added an edit note in the external links section warning anyone who adds additional links to get approval first. If he/she continues to ignore the warning, you can then report them. Hope this helps and as I said, I'll watch this article too and revert any unexplained edits. :) Pinkadelica (talk) 04:58, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- Cheers. What do you think about the limitations section they deleted twice without comment? [1]. Also you didn't actually remove the external link - is that intentional? Aaron Lawrence (talk) 12:53, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- You're welcome. As far as the person deleting the limitations section twice, the only thing I can think of is that that editor doesn't agree with the content. That's just a guess though. From what I read, what you originally wrote seems fairly neutral and I don't see a huge problem with its inclusion, however, it does need to be sourced. Since I'm not very familiar with iPass or internet companies in general, what is this iRoam that this person wants to include? Are they rival companies? I see you removed the link twice (from the article itself and in the external links section). If the companies aren't related, I find it very odd that this person keeps trying to slip it in. Also, no I did not intend to remove the external links section. The links you have now are perfectly acceptable. I only added an edit note (which is visible to anyone who edits the page) to warn anyone who adds links to first get approval. This won't really stop anyone from adding links, but it doesn't help someone's cause when they repeatedly ignore the warning and add spam links anyway. Pinkadelica (talk) 04:46, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
- Yep, that's plenty of references so I removed the references needed tag. Thanks for providing those, the article looks good. Pinkadelica 20:46, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
