Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page The Milestones has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=76379706678.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.

File permission problem with File:Mizraab-carnivalderock.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Mizraab-carnivalderock.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 {{OTRS 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 in|article name}} 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. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:20, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, please don't just remove the tag I placed on that image. Since the image was previously published on the band website, you need to provide proof you are entitled to treat it as your own. If you are a representative of the band, please provide evidence of it in one of the ways described above. Thank you, – Fut.Perf. ☼ 05:51, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Ab khud kuch single cover.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Ab khud kuch single cover.jpg. I noticed that 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, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:19, 16 April 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 03:19, 16 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Newcastle United F.C. Reserves and Academy#Notable former Academy and Youth Team players

You have reverted changes to this section but have you read the text presenting the section? It says:

Many players from the Newcastle United Academy go on to have careers in professional football, whether at Newcastle United or at other clubs. The following is a list of players who have represented their country at full international level and/or have played regularly at a high level of club football. Those in bold have been capped at full international level.

Still you have re-added Alan Shearer. He never played for the club before he was an adult. You have also re-added Matthew Grieve and Ben Tozer. Neither of them are full internationals or have played regularly at a high level of club football. There are several other examples. You should go through the list again.Keallu (talk) 20:46, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alan Shearer did played for Newcastle boy's club (therefore the academy) before moving to Southampton. Also, Matthew Grieve played for Stockport County in League Two. Secondly, Ben Tozer also played for Newcastle Academy for a year and played for the reserves too. Dewaar (talk) 16:54, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Newcastle boy's club is not the academy for Newcastle United Football Club as far as I know. He did not graduate through the academy. If you look at his profile, Newcastle United is not mentioned as a youth club but Wallsend Boys Club is. Three games for Stockport County is not really regarded as regularly at a high level of club football. But it seems it must end as a discussion on the page and involve others opinion than ours. We do not agree it seems :-) Keallu (talk) 20:06, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. :-) Dewaar 08:01, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DASHBot you are not

Hi there. Since you are obviously not DASHBot, can you please not add <!-- Automatically generated by DASHBot--> to material which you edit, like you did here? It is very annoying to try to work out how DASHBot could have possible made an edit, only to discover that it didn't. Best regards. --Muhandes (talk) 23:45, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, the reason DASHBot could not have done this edit is that the reviews box was not put in the right place, DASHBot will always put it in an existing reception section or right after the infobox, which are the valid locations. --Muhandes (talk) 23:46, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:S&Z - One Light Year at Snail Speed.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:S&Z - One Light Year at Snail Speed.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 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:41, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Pakistan national baseball team.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Pakistan national baseball team.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content 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 "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.

Wikipedia and copyright

Control copyright icon Hello Dewaar, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Pakistan men's national field hockey team has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. This is your final warning. Further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 20:31, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment.

March 2023

Information icon Hello. Your recent edit to List of homeopaths appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or self-promoting in violation of the conflict of interest and notability guidelines.

Request reason:

Hi, Thanks for informing me about this and I just got a notification, my account has been compromised and it was being used by someone else without my knowledge. I have taken actions against it and just recovered the account. Please note, I have been part of the community for a long time and have been very conscious of the community rules as well as have contributed a lot in many ways to a number of articles. I would be grateful if I can be unblocked, I will make sure things don't out of hands again. Thank you. Dewaar (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Since you say someone else operated this account, it is now compromised and may not be unblocked. Please read WP:COMPROMISED for more information. 331dot (talk) 17:27, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

Yes it was compromised but I recovered it right away only when I got an email from Wikipedia about the account getting banned. Thankfully I got it back but now it needs to be unblocked. Dewaar (talk) 18:04, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Yes, but as we said WP:COMPROMISED accounts will not be unblocked. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 18:20, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dewaar (talk) 18:04, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please place new posts at the bottom for proper discussion flow. Someone else will review your request, but did you read WP:COMPROMISED? We have no way to know if you are the person who took control of this account or the original operator. This is why compromised accounts are not unblocked. 331dot (talk) 18:20, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Mizraab members

A tag has been placed on Category:Mizraab members indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 06:57, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
