Formatting[edit]

Hi. Thank you for creating the Gary stockdale article. In the future, when you reference shows, etc, in the article, don't use the bold tag, use the link. (Two square brackets, either side). This way, those who read your article can easily jump to other relevant articles. Anyway, I appreciate your contribution, along with all the others who contribute to Wikipedia. If the link is red, the article does not exist yet and shows where an article is needed.

Also, I think the image you uploaded is unnecessary, there is a system in place that shows that a link is a PDF file, the "PDFlink" template as documented here: Template:PDFlink.

It yields something like this:

  • "White Paper: PDF Primer" (PDF). (167 KiB)

Here are some links that may be useful:

I hope you enjoy your stay.

Thanks, vlad§inger tlk 20:36, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Gary Stockdale, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to contain material copied from http://garystockdale.com/bio/, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to 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 license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Update regarding copyright concern[edit]

Since we do not yet have verification of permission by the processes set out above and sufficient time has passed since the placement of the notice, the article Gary Stockdale has been deleted for copyright concerns. This deletion is not necessarily permanent. If you have already sent a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) and GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (if you are not the copyright holder or have co-authored the material, release under CC-BY-SA-compatible license alone is sufficient), the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed by the Wikimedia Communications committee. Likewise, if you have not yet sent a letter, you still may (or resend it, if you believe your original may have been lost), and the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed.

As Wikipedia does not require proof of identity on account creation, it is essential that we receive external proof of authorization in order to ensure that we remain compliant with US Copyright law. It is also essential that we verify that copyright holders understand the extent of the release they are authorizing, in that our licenses permit modification and reuse in any forum, even commercial publication, as long as authorship credit is maintained and future copies are compatibly licensed.

Please note that once permission is verified, the material may be evaluated and altered to meet Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Although we appreciate donations, we cannot guarantee that material donated will be retained.

Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 01:59, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
