Adventure Ocean[edit]

You recently created this article. It does not indicate what country or place that it is based. You should also make yourself aware of WP:COPY for images, as you have nor asserted any right to use it. MNewnham 01:45, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Link spam[edit]

Yes, it is. Please don't recreate the article and please don't do so as an attack page. A new account such as yours will be immediately cancelled. - Lucky 6.9 08:27, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for asking. There are billions of websites and simply no room here to write about all of them. The tone of the article came off as self-promotional, almost an ad. Believe me, Wikipedia just plain sucks as an advertising vehicle. So, in order for a website to get an article, it has to have a fairly high Alexa ranking and not be so self-promotional. You might be able to incorporate info about the site on your user page...which might actually be seen by more people as you contribute more. - Lucky 6.9 08:32, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure to help. Thank you for being so understanding. Occasionally, we admins get really chewed up by new users who find their contributions deleted. I really appreciate your being a good sport and please don't hesitate to call on me if you need help. Truth be told, I'm kind of a gearhead myself. :) - Lucky 6.9 08:36, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Genesis class.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Genesis class.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. AUTiger ʃ ^talk/_work 21:25, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The (primary) issue that I noted was that you didn't indicate the license at all when you uploaded the images. Even if they are provided by the copyright holder for promotional use, you still have to mark the uploaded image that way. Please read more about the various Wikipedia policies and also on editing generally (regarding the comments you left on my talk page) as you continue to edit articles. Complying with policy and conventions helps lesson the workload on everyone else. Thanks, AUTiger ʃ ^talk/_work 06:52, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image Tagging Image:Empress_of_the_seas.jpg[edit]

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Empress_of_the_seas.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. howch e ng {chat} 18:25, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Lazy susan.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Lazy susan.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —An gr 10:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Spam in Jetphotos.net[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Jetphotos.net, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Jetphotos.net is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Jetphotos.net, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Freedom floatout.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Freedom floatout.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) 20:23, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Master Lock tag[edit]

Speedy deletion nomination of Master Lock[edit]

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Master Lock, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Master Lock and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Sud Ram (talk) 17:46, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Adventure Ocean[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.

A tag has been placed on Adventure Ocean, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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. Alpha Quadrant ^talk 21:02, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
