COPACO[edit]

You're welcome :-)

I truly appreciate your contributions. Many articles about Italian politics are too short and bare (one random example: Ministero della Difesa), so any improvements are welcome. I have yet to see one of those reach featured article status. And yes, writing in English is better, so that all the other editors can understand what we are saying.

Now, about the questions:

1) I had a quick look at your edits and I could not find any faults, but if you have any doubts about Wikipedia policies please feel free to ask. I should add that I am being somewhat inactive these days, so I might be unresponsive. If that happens, you can use the help desk, or contact another administrator, if needed.

2) Yes, that was not the right way to move the page. However, such mistakes can be easily fixed by administrators by performing a history merge, so I will simply merge the two pages in COPACO. Usually, page moves are discussed on the article's talk page, so please write a message there to explain the move. I don't think there will be any objections, considering the parallel with SISMI, SISDE and CESIS, and the fact that COPACO is the most widely used name for the committee. It is not necessary to contact the original author directly, but feel free to do that if you wish.

No need to beg forgiveness, helping users is what administrators exist for. And again, welcome :-) Mushroom (Talk) 07:53, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Guardia Costiera.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Guardia Costiera.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. 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.
