Trini

Nice to meet another Trini here. Hope you're enjoying it. If there's anything I can help you with, let me know. Guettarda (talk) 03:05, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Nah, I'm not in Trinidad. Been back and forth a bit since I started grad school in 1994, but I've been in the States the last 6 years. And yes, I discovered Buhwamoder thanks to Facebook. Guettarda (talk) 03:53, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

RE Re: How does a free program become un-free?

Lift

I removed the following entry...

• Lift, an unreleased 1996 Radiohead song

...from the Lift disambiguation page because it conflicts with WP:DABSTYLE which says "Include related subject articles only if the term in question is actually described on the target article".

There's no mention of "Lift" on the Radiohead page.

I removed it three times with the following edit summaries:
[1] Undid revision 390176334 by Aavindraa - Include related subject articles only if the term in question is actually described on the target article
[2] Undid revision 394462734 by Aavindraa (talk) - please see WP:DABSTYLE - Include related subject articles only if the term in question...
[3] Undid revision 394544891 by Aavindraa (talk) - please see User talk:Aavindraa#Lift - thanks

If you think the entry should not be removed, please can you explain why either here or on the Talk:Lift page. Thanks. 86.147.206.66 (talk) 10:46, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Funny that you removed it 3 times, and now it should remain permanently there, as the song has it's own dedicated page. Avindratalk / contribs 17:29, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Signature

Hi. Please please reduce the amount of code in your signature. See WP:Signatures for our guidelines, and detailed explanations of why large signatures are a problem. It should be at most 255 characters, and yours is currently 399 characters long (which takes up 3 entire lines in the editing box). Thanks! -- Quiddity (talk) 20:33, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

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.

The screenshots

Hello there, I've just seen your update on the picture of the CCleaner, first thanks for the update and then would you please tell me which program do you use to take screenshots? Cause I found your uploads very smoothly, Thanks! Nima1024 (talk) 21:12, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

The program is called Window Clippings. Avindratalk / contribs 22:00, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

File:The_king_of_limbs.jpg

Yes, I am very happy indeed. For the record, the image is not "my version" in any sense other than its having been uploaded by me. It is the version of the cover included with the album when downloaded. In future, please observe Wikipedia:Civility and refrain from telling other users to "go away". I was not remotely rude to you and there was no need to respond in that manner. Thanks. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 23:22, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Dolphin Logo.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Dolphin Logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

Controversial topic area alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor. — Newslinger talk 08:05, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
