Singapore Airlines A380 Incident
Hi, I have reverted your edits to Singapore Airlines regarding the A380 engine failure. On Wikipedia we only include notable incidents, this is not classed as notable. Have a look here: Wikipedia:AIRCRASH this will guide you in what accidents / incidents you should include in articles. Thanks --JetBlast (talk) 23:57, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Bahrain A320.jpg
![File Copyright problem](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Bahrain A320.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.
If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Karthik Nadar (talk) 14:09, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you! I've added copyright information on my last upload: SVGE90.jpg.
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Bahrain A320.jpg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/48px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on File:Bahrain A320.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, 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 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. ww2censor (talk) 05:16, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
LOT Polish Airlines Flight 016
Can use additional help on live updates to LOT Polish Airlines Flight 016 accident. Ajh1492 (talk) 14:39, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- Sure, I'll add as many details as I could as soon I as hear about them. :)
Please add a source for that picture. Did you take it yourself? Did you find it somewhere else where it is licensed under a CC license? If no source is added, the image will have to be deleted. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 21:01, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, I found it on the Aviation Herald. As far as I know, the Aviation Herald does not copyright their pictures and allow them to be released to the public freely. IF I'm wrong, just post back and I'll immediately remove it.
- You would need to link to the page with the picture, and the page in which AH states they release their photos to the public domain. See Wikipedia:Donating_copyrighted_materials#You_cannot_donate_what_someone_else_owns. If you are unsure about something, consider asking at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. PS. Just to be clear: I appreciate you trying to add the photo to the article, and it needs one, no doubt. But we have to do it in a away that is legal, and show everybody who visits the page that we've done so. The accepted way of doing so is to clearly state where does the photo comes from, and prove that it is free for us to use. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 21:10, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- I have just added the link. I appreciate your help! I do not like to get into problems. If there are problems with the link, just post back. EmadIV (talk) 21:14, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the link. The photo clearly states: "Reuters/Peter Andrews". Can you show me where "Reuters/Peter Andrews" release the photo under a Free Art License? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 21:56, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- A bit of a check shows that the picture was actually taken from a YouTube video. It seems like it may be copyrighted. I will certainly ask the video author; and if proven, I will remove the picture. Apologies for the trouble caused.
- If you find the author, consider asking them to license their work under a free license. If you secure such a permission, the photo can be kept. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 23:38, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
- I have sent the author a message asking for to license the work. Please do not remove the photo until I receive a reply (probably in a few hours).
- I encourage you to sign your post on your talk pages, as otherwise we have no timestamp. I hope you'll get positive replies or be able to obtain freely licensed photos another way. We very much appreciate your involvement, but unfortunately, laws are laws, and Wikipedias is one of the few places that actually pays them any respect. As a non-profit NGO witha tiny budget, the only one in the Top 10 most popular sites, we cannot risk a lawsuit, or other troubles, and try to be a good citizen. At the same time, we (I) fully support free culture and hope that those ufriendly, unwieldy laws will change. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 16:30, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Jigsaw camouflage
Hello EmadIV. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Jigsaw camouflage, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not blatantly vandalism or a hoax. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:26, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button
or
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 18:11, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
speedies
Please be more careful:
- After Malik left you the note above about Jigsaw Camouflage, you just put back the same incorrect speedy tag again -- I removed it.
- A7 only applies to the things specifically listed on that template: people, groups, organizations, etc. not Nanjing yunjin brocade , a type of cloth.
- for Oksana Grishina you seem to have twice misread the article, as indicated by the comments on the talk p.
In addition, you've been not understanding the difference between A7 and G11--A7 is where there is no indication of plausible importance. An article that is highly promotional but about someone or something that might well be important should be tagged only G11. An article that is straight description about a person or group for which there is no likely claim of importance should be tagged only A7. An article that is straight description about some thing which is not a person or group etc. but for which there is no indication of importance must go to WP:PROD. And in many cases, you will find WP:BLPPROD very useful.
Please read, slowly and carefully, WP:Deletion policy and WP:CSD before doing any more patrolling. I reread them myself every once in a while to make sure I'm not drifting. We need patrollers, but we need it done right. Yo've made many good catches, but what you do needs to conform to the guidelines. CSD in particularly is interpreted narrowly, and can not be used in a wide discretionary fashion. DGG ( talk ) 18:14, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
November 2011
Hello EmadIV. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know however, regarding jabiru airport, that tagging articles for speedy deletion moments after creation as lacking context (CSD A1), content (CSD A3) and articles created through the Article Wizard, is too fast. It's best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), pure vandalism (G3), and copyright violations (G12) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks. →Στc. 18:35, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. →Στc. 18:35, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion declined: Verne Fiedler
Hello EmadIV. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Verne Fiedler, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 20:41, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for quickly backtracking and not dragging me through AfD on a brand new article, I wish more people responded that way and didn't go for delete prematurely. Thanks!Westernstag (talk) 00:30, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

- I am sure you don't also maybe you missed my edit summary where I mentioned that I was going to be working on this article from scratch and to please not delete. You could save yourself work by contacting the editor or waiting a little more than a minute after its creation.Westernstag (talk) 00:40, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
- I actually tagged it for deletion under A7, meaning that it was about an animal but did not indicate credible importance. A closer look at it proved otherwise. —>εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 20:11, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for signing up for this project. It is a very busy and active project with lots going on and we can always use more help and especially a fresh set of eyes. If you haven't done so already you might want to add Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft to your watch list as this is where much of the background discussion occurs. You may also want to watch Wikipedia:New articles (Aircraft) as this is where newly created articles get listed for peer review. Having a look over these new articles is a great way to get a feel for how things are done on the project and also most new articles need reviewing anyway. If you have any questions you can leave me a note or post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft, either way you will get a quick response. - Ahunt (talk) 23:58, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

You left a very decent message on the author's talk page, but it turns out the account was blocked on November 10 as a confirmed sockpuppet of User:Bertrand101.
That situation dealt with, I ask that you take a look at what happened to the stub Abento left us,[1] and see that User:Bluemask has expanded and adequately souced it to create a suitable start class. I believe notability has been established.
Might you consider a withdrawal? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 04:16, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Rollbacker Status ? real ✔ or fake?
Sorry to bug you but either your rollback userbox has some bug or you don't have rollback rights in Wikipedia.When I clicked "verify" of "This user has rollback rights on the English Wikipedia. (verify)" ,it took me to a page which was this.If you did have rollback rights then your verify result would be like this.If this is some bug then contact your administrator who has given you rollback rights.Else as I believe that you don't have rollback rights and I would suggest that you remove this userbox.Vivekananda De--tAlK 11:09, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- I do have rollback rights on Wikipedia. Take a look at my contributions for a handful of rollback edits I made. —>εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 11:55, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- According to your user rights thing, you don't have rollback. Are you using the rollback feature in Twinkle? That works pretty much the same, but it isn't the same as being a rollbacker, and doesn't entitle anyone to use the rollback userbox. I can't see any recent Twinkling, though. When you look at a history page, after the title and edit summary bit, do you get rollback in brackets in ordinary type, in bold type in a funny colour, or not at all? (Only there if it's the latest edit on a page.) Peridon (talk) 16:37, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

- It is confusing. If you do a lot with vandalism, you could apply at WP:RFPERM. If you're only fighting now and then, stick to Twinkle. (I got it, and hardly ever used it. I used to do everything manually then. Caused a bit of a stir at my RfA - someone with no automated edits at all. Peridon (talk) 19:49, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
- This issue has been resolved.I congratulate you on your splendid work.Can you explain this.
- You answered to this post at "11:55, 17 November 2011" by saying that you did have rollback (I guess you were mistaken about twinkle and rollback right).See this
- Then suddenly at "11:59, 17 November 201" you came to know about "Rollback Right" and posted your request for permission at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Rollback even before Peridon talked about WP:RFPERM.See this.
- And strangely nobody told you about this difference because Peridon answered at "16:37, 17 November 2011" ,a good one-half hours later.Thus you already knew about the difference between "Twinkle" rollback and "Rollback Rights".See I know that I have no right to speak about what a user can place in his userbox and I am sorry about it.Vivekananda De--tAlK 05:18, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
- It's OK. I wouldn't like to lie about something I am not. My work is heavily focused on patrolling new pages (take a look at my contributions, more than 500 of my edits are to do with speedy deletions).

Your rollback request
Hello EmadIV, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism/spam/blatantly unconstructive edits, and that using it to revert anything else (such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with) can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning, depending on the admin who becomes aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, then don't use rollback and instead, use a manual edit summary. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 14:26, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

hey hello
hello,
I don't see any valid reason to blank the article before afd.
84.106.26.81 (talk) 06:40, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
I was talking about this
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CETI_Patterson_Power_Cell&action=history
If it isn't obvious, if the article should be nominated for AFD it should be nominated without removing the reliable sources first. Because people have to vote for or against this article it is important to actually have the article and not the 1 line of content. Not that the article is finished, I didn't really get a chance to finish it because of the afd. The user who nominated it obviously couldn't see I was working on it.
You understand?
So the article should be made visible so that people can vote on the AFD. That is the only issue at hand.

Consider withdrawing, it would never be deleted anyway. Notable articles will always be notable. You are confusing lack of content with lack of notability. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:43, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

- A normal Wikipedia reader won't bother to do that. It was simply a single sentence that did not state anything except its location (this revision), not even a reference. I've withdrawn the AfD. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 14:58, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Your revert on N ray
Why did you revert [this edit] ny me, adding an original research template to an unsourced sententce which said: "However, this spread of nearly identical pathological science in history shows that the phenomenon has greater breadth than the usual patriotic self-deception that is assumed." As I explained in my edit summary, this sentence seems like original research to me, because it expresses the opinion that is neithe attributed or sourced. You say in your mesage on my talk page that my edit was unconstructive, what was unconstuctive about it. Perhaps you might ask yourself whether you would make that revert if I was a logged-in user. If the OR tag offends you, would you object to the use of a citation needed tag as a comprimise? Thanks, 137.43.188.87 (talk) 16:01, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your addition to this article. I just want to explain why I removed the information you added. Although it is, as you said, included in the references, Wikipedia policy states that we can not simply copy and paste from other sources, but have to rephrase the text. The information in that format is also quite complicated to follow for anyone (such as myself) who doesn't really understand what it is talking about. If you can find a way to rewrite this information in a way that is easier to follow, and insert that into the page, it would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise this information is unfortunately not going to be able to be placed in the article. Regards, Harrias talk 12:57, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'll be rewriting the text now. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 12:59, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

Status Quo
Please can you clarify your unsubstantiated accusation? In complete innocence I added a new name to Status Quo. In my locality, Status Quo are commonly referred to as 'The Repetitive Two Chord Wielding Middle Aged Men'. Are you even from the UK so as to be qualified to contribute to this issue of vital importance?
I look forward to your response.

- “In my locality, Status Quo are commonly referred to as 'The Repetitive Two Chord Wielding Middle Aged Men'” We need references to support that claim, and besides, Wikipedia deals with international matter, not local matter. You are welcome to add the content but you need to include verifiable sources (not including blogs, YouTube, Facebook, etc). →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 15:20, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
List of American Civil War Generals (Confederate)
I am working on the article, including a plan for reorganizing it (already started) and eventually shortening it considerably. I have explained this in some more detail on the talk page and made a brief note at the end of the introduction so I won't repeat that here. Because of these explanations which serve a similar purpose but also show some plan to deal with it, I have removed the "too long" tag. I ask that you read the explanation on the talk page for my complete thoughts. If you really disagree that the explanation is good enough to show that there is recognition about the length of the article and work is being done on it, and you want to put the tag back on the article, go ahead. I will not remove it again until I have actually reduced the size of the article. However, I don't think the tag is necessary since I am going to work on the article in line with my explanation whether it is tagged or not. I worry that the tag might invite someone else to precipitously remove material that I want to abbreviate or remove in a disciplined way, or might even scare off some readers who think the article is defective. As a list, however, it is not really meant to be read from end to end at one time - by most readers, at least. Maybe there is too little interest for these worries to be serious but that is part of my thinking, which I did not think appropriate to state on the talk page because it might attract the adverse action that I mention if it were so publicly advertised. Donner60 (talk) 09:58, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. Your explanation is reasonable, I won't add that tag again. It will certainly be bad if a user deliberately deleted content because of that tag. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 16:13, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Camilla Lackberg: Ice Princess.
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Camilla Lackberg: Ice Princess., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article talk page, file description page, file talk page, MediaWiki page, MediaWiki talk page, category talk page, portal talk page, template talk page, help talk, user page, user talk or special page from the main/article space.
If you can fix the redirect to point to a mainspace page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you are fixing the redirect. If you think the redirect should be retained as is for some reason, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this:
which appears inside of the speedy deletion (
{{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). 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 article's talk page directly to give your reasons. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Achowat (talk) 16:26, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Knyvett v Christchurch Casinos Ltd
Hello EmadIV. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Knyvett v Christchurch Casinos Ltd, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.

This is my first experience working with Wikipedia (as you can probably tell) and I was tasked with creating pages on the past Attorneys General for our Historical Committee project (I work for the current AG) and was taking information that we have on our AG website. I had asked someone in our office if I needed to cite everything they cited on our website or if I could just site our website and they were unsure.
January 2015
I deleted all the information except for Wickliffe Stratton which I re-wrote. As I progress through this I will be adding information that we discover through our research. As long as I put it into my own words and cite where I found the information am I good in that respect? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Washington State Attorneys General (talk • contribs) 18:38, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- Absolutely! That is exactly what wikipedia is about. Don't worry about bots tagging your page; if you have reworded the text and bots have tagged your page as a copyvio, myself or another user will simply remove the tag and state so on the talk page. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 18:43, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
How will I know when my page is available to view by the public? I have done a search in Google and it is not coming up. I am trying to read all the tutorials on creating pages but do not see anything.
- Your page is available immediately, however, it might take some time before it turns up on Google. Couple hours, max days, and it will turn up. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 20:44, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
In my research I found a page titled List of Attorneys General of Washington and it references our AG website (which is what I tried to do) but it has not got dinged for copyright. Is it because I cited it wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Washington State Attorneys General (talk • contribs) 20:10, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- The issue is with copying the text directly into the article. However, adding it as a reference is actually recommended as it verifies the information. You can add a link to the AG website at the end of the article, under a 'References' subheading, and include small in-text references that look like [1]. You can do that by pasting the AG link with reference (<ref></ref>) tags, like <ref>www.websitehere.com</ref> , in front of your text. I'll add the reference for you in your article as an example. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 21:02, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

I just got tagged again by someone else for my page being a duplicate page? Well yes there is another page out there that list all of the Washington State AG's but our page is actually from the AG's office and will be a complete historical biography of each AG. The other page just pulled information directly from our website (not by us).
I contested this but I fear this will happen each time I add information about the other AG's. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Washington State Attorneys General (talk • contribs) 21:35, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- About that, it is a valid tag unfortunately. In this case, why not add the information from your article to the existing one? There is no point of having multiple pages on each topic, so duplicate topics are tagged for speedy deletion. Try searching wikipedia for the topic before creating a new one. The page the tagger referred to was this one. →εϻαdιν ΤαΙk Ͼδητrιβμτιoης 21:49, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
