License tagging for Image:Symposiumsmall.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Symposiumsmall.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 06:05, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Deletion of M. Agarwal[edit]

Hey, I'm a new user here, and I just wanted to say that it makes me really sad that you deleted my article on Milan Agarwal. Yes, I read the guidelines on biographies and on notability, but I must object because who is to say whether someone is notable or not anyways? At UC Berkeley, Milan is quite notable, but since you don't attend the school you probably don't understand the magnitude of the Asian Business Association. I don't understand what the point is of deleting someone's article ONLY based on "non-notability", which is a completely subjective criteria anyways. I'm contributing to a database of general knowledge with facts and content - it's not like I'm putting up some stupid crap. Even the editors who nominated the page for deletion said it was a "nice bio" and that it was a shame to be deleted. I really don't see any harm in keeping the page - if you would like me to edit it because I'm violating some other guideline, I would be more than happy to do so. Personally, I think that the criteria of non-notability came about because people will get jealous of people who have profiles on Wikipedia who aren't rockstars, political figures, or someone with "distinguishable hits on Google" (another completely subjective criteria, btw.) Just thought I'd let you know my opinion. --Joiberrie 7:09, 7 May 2006

Hello. I deleted the article via easy consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Milan Agarwal. I agree that notability can be subjective, but our guidelines help us make it more transparent. Unfortunately we get so much 'stupid crap' from students who think that their band/film club -- we have to be consistent. I'm sure the Asian Business Association is held in very high regard in UCB, but I very much doubt the rest of the world cares. Regards. The JPS ^{talk to me} 09:55, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Milan![edit]

Wow...I never thought that you would be a Wikipedian! I haven't seen you for a long time...did Monali learn how to drive yet?
Yeah...you're probably wondering who I am, but I don't really like to reveal my identity online. I was also in cross country and track...ring any bells? My sister was also in your class... (I hope I don't sound like a stalker!) If you who I am, please don't write my name in any response (I'm a little paranoid).
Anyways, leave me a message on my talk page or or click here to email me. I know you're not actively contributing to Wikipedia, so I don't expect an instant response. Have fun in UCB. =D Jumping cheese ^Contact 00:53, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
