Edit Summary Request[edit]

I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky or even vandalizing. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! -- Kukini 20:05, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great! Don't forget to sign your talk posts with tildes. Kukini 20:18, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image tagging for Image:184752426 e27a47b17d o.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:184752426 e27a47b17d o.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Moyles Complaints[edit]

Well the actions all refer to Moyles' actions; I don't think it matters too much but, lets say that he was to do something controversial on a tv show; that would be inappropriate for the radio show article. By keeping it all at Chris Moyles, we assure that everything will be in the same place, making it easier for the reader. Robdurbar 06:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

2010s_in_fashion[edit]

You may want to take a look at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/2010s_in_fashion, as this substub/article start was nearly speedied this morning. I don't know if you were planning on adding more information from reliable sources, but your input would be valued. -- nae'blis 15:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fashion project invite[edit]

Your edit history shows you haven't done anything in a couple of weeks. I wonder if you are still interested in the project. But if you are, and even if you aren't, based on your comments on 2000s in fashion that suggest you a) have a great deal of expertise in fashion and b) are as appalled as I was by how much of a mess most of Wikipedia's fashion articles are, I would like to let you know of the existence of WikiProject Fashion, which aims to remedy that. Perhaps you might be interested in joining and contributing more regularly again? We need all the help we can get, and editors who describe themselves as "serious fashion academics" would be most welcome. Daniel Case 05:40, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Chris Moyles protest.jpg[edit]

Hi there. I have tagged an image you uploaded, Image:Chris Moyles protest.jpg, for deletion in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policy. The image's licence at Flickr requires non-commercial use only; such images are incompatible with Wikpiedia policy and may be deleted at any time. — mholland (talk) 16:17, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Andrewgroves.jpg[edit]

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Image:Andrewgroves.jpg. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.wmin.ac.uk/mad/page-519 in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article [[Talk:Image:Andrewgroves.jpg|Talk page]] and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Andrewgroves.jpg]] with a link to where we can find that note;
If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article [[Talk:Image:Andrewgroves.jpg|Talk page]]. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Andrewgroves.jpg]] with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Andrewgroves.jpg]] saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — mholland (talk) 16:29, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Chris Moyles protest.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, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. 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. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

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. ^demon^{[omg plz]} 16:45, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Cocainenites.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Cocainenites.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}} 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 04:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Mangostar (talk) 04:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
