Please read my comments on that article's Talk page regarding it's current confusing nature. -Drdisque 17:57, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have proposed deletion of the /Temp page you created because I have copied what you have completed to the correct title above. After doing that, I have also removed all of the incomplete work marked with simply a note that something will be added. It's all there in the history for your convenience once you're ready to resume work. Remember that when you create an article in the main space, it's available for all to see. If you want to create temporary pages for work in progress in the future, I would suggest you do so in your user space and then copy it over to the mainspace once it is ready.

I'm glad you have decided to take on creating these rather complex articles. They're an excellent contribution to the project if you ask me. Good luck with them. Erechtheus 13:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to Adelaide Wikipedia Users Group meetings[edit]

Hi, in case you're not already aware of it, a group of Adelaide Wikipedians has been meeting on a monthly basis since April, with the aim of improving the scope and quality of articles on South Australian topics. We meet at UniSA's City West campus, and our 23 July meeting will have a guest speaker from the National Trust of SA.

This coming Sunday, 6 July, we will be holding our first Edit-a-thon. This will be an opportunity for new editors to come and learn either basic or more advanced editing from very experienced wikipedians, so if you know anyone who would like to get some practice, please let them know - and beginners will be very welcome. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 05:38, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Morphettville Park Cricket Club logo.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Morphettville Park Cricket Club logo.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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 {{permission 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}} 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. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 14:44, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
