User talk:Windsok

Welcome

Hi Windsok. Thanks for your comments and advice on screenshots. I'm afraid I'm the "so long as it works" school-of-thought when it comes to the more complex nature of software (and, I suppose, technology at large). Anyways, noticing that your new to the 'Pedia, I thought I'd give you a welcome and let you know about the Australian community here. You should be sure to check out Australian resources, like The Australia Wikiportal, Australian Wikipedians' Notice Board, Australian Collaboration of the Fortnight, New Australian Articles and Australian stub articles. By the way, I've added you to the Wikipedians in New South Wales category (a sub-category of Australian Wikipedians). I hope you don't mind. Again, welcome and happy editing.--Cyberjunkie | Talk 12:16, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Myth Units Section Poll

Hello! I noticed that you have contributed to discussion on the talk page for Myth (computer game). A poll for paring down the Units section has started, and I thought you might want to vote. Please accept my apologies if this does not interest you. Thank you! Argyrios 15:58, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Tennis pictures

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your great pictures. I uploaded them in Commons ([1]). That's exactly the same licence and rights for you and it allows wikis in other languages to use these pictures. I hope that's fine for you. Best. Poppypetty 20:49, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Not a problem :) I have a whole heap of other tennis images that I have been meaning to upload, I guess I should upload them directly to commons, rather than to en.wikpedia? --Windsok 07:44, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that would be really great. Commons is pretty easy. You just have to create an account (it's as easy as in the wiki en) and to make sure that you own that you put a free licence on them (you can only upload your own works/pictures). Thanks again. Poppypetty 15:41, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism

I saw that you had given 216.214.100.185 a final warning against vandalism, but this user has gone on to "edit" several more times. I just thought I'd let you know that I caught it AGAIN today. I don't know if there's anything you can do about it, but I saw that warning and thought that perhaps you had some authority...?? Davi 15:34, 2 October 2006 (UTC)AlmightyDavi, 10:34 AM CDT, 2 October 2006

Hi. Any user, admin or not can warn a user against vandalism. See Wikipedia:Vandalism for details on wikipedia's vandalism policy. Once a user has been warned enough times, you can place them on the Wikipedia:Administrator_intervention_against_vandalism page, and they will be dealt with by an administrator. --Windsok 15:43, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

tennis again

Just wanted to give you some more props for awesome tennis photos. :) What a shame you're not down in Melbourne now! cheers, pfctdayelise (talk) 11:25, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Actually I went to the Sydney tennis again this year, and the photos are much better than last years, jsut got to get around to processing them and uploading them. Cheers :) --Windsok 00:37, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Cool! Can't wait to see them. Hope you plan to upload them to commons:? --pfctdayelise (talk) 05:54, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

I will get around to it eventually, I added one today: Li Na --Windsok 09:57, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Nice! Wow, she has some seriously killer muscles!! :o --pfctdayelise (talk) 10:49, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Noticed the new picture on Li Na's pages was your work, and checked out your pictures of Henin and others. Wow, those pictures are amazing! We need pictures of every player courtesy of you. Keep up the good work. Captain Courageous 03:39, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Image:Fairuz_Fauzy.jpg listed for deletion

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Fairuz_Fauzy.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Pyrope 08:57, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Nelson_Angelo_Piquet.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Nelson_Angelo_Piquet.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 22:39, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Lp record album.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lp record album.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 20:00, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Wollongong FC

Please do not do what you did to Wollongong Wolves, i.e. redirecting to a new article. If an article needs renaming, you can move it using the move tab at the top of the page. Cut and paste moves mean that a complicated page history merge needs to be done. Thanks, пﮟოьεԻ 57 20:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

A-League 2008-09 article

Great work on fixing up the "home and away season" section - I saw the other layout and was going to change it, but didn't have the time or energy - it must have taken you ages - and it looks much better! -- Chuq (talk) 22:45, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah thanks for doing that. It does take a long time. I did it last season and it takes forever. Cheers. Jared Wiltshire (talk) 01:53, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Vote for Football as the Australian collaboration

Hi -- I recently nominated Wikipedia:WikiProject Football (soccer) in Australia/To-do for the Australian Collaboration of the Fortnight.

This WikiProject has been inactive for a long time and with the World Cup coming up, it would be good for football (soccer) articles to be in depth and comprehensive in Australia.

If you would like to support it, click here for the project page to cast your vote

Thanks! Australian Matt (talk) 02:55, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Wollongong FC Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Wollongong FC Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

• I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
• I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
• If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
• To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
• If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.
