July 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Sandra Dee Robinson has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://zoopeeps.wordpress.com (redirect from http://www.zoopeeps.info).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 18:50, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page Sandra Ferguson do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia.

The article Laurel Neme has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no independent sources - very little google coverage to establish WP:notability. We need sources about her - not by her.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. noq (talk) 14:11, 1 August 2010 (UTC) inadvertently spelled the name wrong, and hence could not find appropriate citations.Hence, I understand the deletionZooaction (talk) 16:13, 13 August 2010 (UTC).[reply]

    • I am still unsure about why Laurel Neme is slated for deletion as I added third source references following the warnings. Please advise-thanksZooaction (talk) 16:13, 13 August 2010 (UTC).[reply]

A tag has been placed on Ken Zaretsky requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. noq (talk) 14:12, 1 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Awcc-header.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Awcc-header.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:05, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Speedy deletion of "Celine Cousteau"[edit]

A page you created, Celine Cousteau, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, organisation, or web content, but does not indicate why its subject is important or significant.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on File:Awccnew logo.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

This is intended as a friendly reminder, and an offer of help. Please read the talk page on the article.

Compliance with Wikipedia's policies[edit]

File:Coyote awcc.jpg, File:BearcubsAWCC.jpg, File:Corwin-deer.jpg, and File:Natl-geo-moose.jpg have all been deleted as they have previously been published on the web and you have not complied with our copyright policy by verifying your identity. You have been previously notified of these issues and how to comply. Please review Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you continue to upload content onto Wikipedia (text or images) without verifying your identity or the permission of the copyright holder, this account will have to be blocked from further contributions in compliance with the United States Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act. If you have any questions about the copyright policy or the verification process, please feel free to let me know.

In addition, File:Safe image.jpg] has been listed for copyright review at the Possibly Unfree Files board. When an image is deleted for lack of permission, the proper response is to follow the permission process, not to upload it again under different name and different license tag. You will need to follow this process for File:IUCN-BSG-New-Logo-Header.jpg to verify the approval of the copyright holder for the license.

Based on your edits, in addition to this I must point out to you Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest. It seems very evident that you are connected to the subjects about which you are writing. If you wish to continue, you must conform to this guideline. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:42, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree File:Sandra dee robinson 23.jpg[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Sandra dee robinson 23.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Kinu t/c 18:46, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Additionally, as has been conveyed to you many times above, please stop uploading content that is copyrighted to Wikipedia. Several of the maps, etc., for the AWCC article have been deleted, because they were clearly copied from that organization's website. Perhaps what is worse is that every file you have uploaded claims that you created the work or that the work is in the public domain, when clearly some of the celebrity photographs, etc., are from other websites. Please refrain from doing so in the future; it damages your credibility and brings additional scrutiny to your activities. I feel that you have information to contribute, but copyright policies are taken very seriously on Wikipedia, and further transgressions may result in a block. Thank you. --Kinu t/c 18:51, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Revisions are acceptable, but don't start blanking the article piece by piece. Let the AfD run its course, and, if it ends up deleted, the closing admin will take care of it. For example, some editor may come along and decide that the article can be rescued; if you've already removed large parts of the article, that's 1) less likely to happen and 2) much harder to do. I'm not saying that the article won't be deleted, just that you shouldn't be the one to do it. Qwyrxian (talk) 00:19, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removing templates[edit]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. You have removed conflict of interest tags several times, on more than one article. JamesBWatson (talk) 16:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Several people have made it clear that someone close to the subject has added something to the article. That claim has been verified by me and I have accepted every deleted photo and modified the article myself to convey a neutral perspective. There is no need to continue to add management lables, as the advisements already stand on the page. We clearly got the point and are striving to improve the article and provide updated citations. Your continued placement of COI Tags after efforts to remove the coi were taken, conveys that editors are not interested in resolving issues, but may rather enjoy labeling the pages. Constructive advice has not once been shared. What needs to be done to remove the labels? Why has no one attempted to fixed that other than myself? Soon I may delete both pages because making an effort to comply with requests has not yielded any help with the articles. Feel free to delete the articles as this is time consuming to fix them only to have them relabeled. The process does not make much sense. It's purely punative and not constructive.Zooaction (talk) 19:06, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what you are saying, and I fully accept that you have tried to move towards a more neutral account. However, I do not think that an editor with a possible conflict of interest is well suited to assess how successful their own attempts have been. It is better to let an uninvolved, objective, editor to make that judgement. JamesBWatson (talk) 20:22, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

thanks. I appreciate it and hope things can be resolved sooner than later.Zooaction (talk) 06:37, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Since starting contributing to Wikipedia on March 11, 2006, I've made over 72 000 edits which would make me in the top 125 of all Wikipedian users and third among WikiProject Ottawa users behind Bearcat and SimonP and second among editors from the Greater Ottawa region." Is this guy impressive or what?Zooaction (talk) 06:36, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No offense intended to the editor, but edit numbers alone are not impressive, as there are tools that will help you do dozens if not hundreds of edits an hour, wheras finding the information and citations for an article and getting them set up right takes time. Both types of editing are VERY important to WikiPedia, but those of us who write and cite will never rack up those kinds of numbers unless we go full time (probably not even then). More impressive is that he's stuck it out for over four years, putting up with us newbies.
Back to the topic: If you hold off a bit I will go in and edit the B.E.A.R.S. section and check the rest and remove the tag for you. I'm working on a couple of other articles at the moment, but will get back to it. The main issue that I have is that the facts in the current article do not match the proposal to the state (for instance 9,700 sqft for the proposal and 11,000 in the article), and I can't find anything public that supports the article. I realize that this is probably the difference between plans and "as built" (or maybe there is a total in the proposal that I haven't spotted yet because I haven't read it all the way through yet), but that doesn't help for Wikipedia articles unless I (or someone else) can verify the new information somewhere and cite it properly. I will do my best with the sources that I have dug up by then. Donlammers (talk) 12:32, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Jordan Schaul, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Zoo Talkin' Radio, you may be blocked from editing. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:43, 13 December 2010 (UTC) ‎[reply]

Your contributed article, Sandra Dee Robinson[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Sandra Dee Robinson. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Sandra Ferguson. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Sandra Ferguson - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Gobonobo T C 14:23, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
