Flagged for Speedy Deletion (copied from article's talk page)[edit]
I am building this page for a member of the Ashram led by Louix Dor Dempriey. She doesn't have a wiki account or know how to build a page so I'm doing it for them. Mseanbrown (talk) 19:08, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Doesn't matter. You can't create a Wikipedia article by copying and pasting copyrighted text from another website. If the ashram wants to license their text to Wikipedia, including the right to alter it, then they have to do so explicitly; see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 20:04, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Louix Dor Dempriey.jpg)[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Louix Dor Dempriey.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. BJBot (talk) 16:45, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
Gateway[edit]
Greetings. You'll find that Heechee is already linked in the article, and the book series has a navbox at the bottom of the article. If you want to include the series list in the article, it would probably be best in its own subhead. - Denimadept (talk) 21:30, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
