A tag has been placed on File:Cabot Guns Logo.png, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

  • It is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content [1], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. (See section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then you should do two things. First, please state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions. Second, please add the relevant copyright tag.
  • It is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. (See section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{non-free fair use in|article name that the file is used in}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.
  • The image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. (See section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

  • The image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated. (See section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)
  • It is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content [2], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles.

Speedy deletion nomination of Cabot Guns[edit]

Hello DarkestFord,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Cabot Guns for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 04:16, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

November 2014[edit]

Under construction icon

Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, with less risk of deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 07:57, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for December 24[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mrs. T's Pierogies, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Shenandoah. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:00, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Companies From Pennsylvania[edit]

Category:Companies From Pennsylvania, which you created, has been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you. Pichpich (talk) 02:57, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please explain this? The order it was in is more widely used; most articles list platforms like that. Usually, PC is mentioned first or last and then all the consoles go after or before that. (For example: Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 in stead of Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3.) As for why it's better this way, it just makes sense to list things like this. It appears organized and doesn't look random. (You know, Xbox One next to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 next to PlayStation 4, console A next to console B, iOS next to Android, Microsoft Windows next to Linux, and so on.) It's also consistent across Wikipedia. So, why do you insist on having it how you have changed it? Please explain. It looks to me as though you're ranking it from your personal opinions of the three platforms (worst to best or whatever) and that may not be the case so that's why I'm asking. Unexplained edits will confuse others. Especially when it's something as small as this. I suggest you use edit summaries in the future. That way, you will avoid confusing anybody else and therefore will not be questioned. —DangerousJXD (talk) 05:52, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you also reinstated the blockquote I removed before.

"Just Cause is all about having fun. It’s not a super serious experience. It’s not an emotional journey. What people remember about Just Cause 2 is the huge explosions, all the stuff they blew up and all the fun they had doing it. It’s not about the moment where they started to cry."

—Christofer Sundberg, CEO of Avalanche Studios

This does not say anything noteworthy whatsoever about the development. That a CEO is enthusiastic about their game is understandable, but that's downright unnecessary plugging and has no place on Wikipedia. --Soetermans. T / C 17:59, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

November 2015[edit]

Information icon Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Just Cause 3, did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. The1337gamer (talk) 21:53, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Just Cause 3. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. The1337gamer (talk) 05:57, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Just Cause 3, you may be blocked from editing. AdrianGamer (talk) 09:57, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
