Better source request for File:Aladdin Franchise Logo.png
[edit]Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Elisfkc (talk) 17:33, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

Re: Was my edit worthy of being reverted?
[edit]Re your message: It was restored by Katastasi, so there is no need for you to put it back. You did the correct thing by trying to discuss the issue with the other editor. I'm not sure why your edit was targeted. The blocked editor was being disruptive and went on a revert spree in an act of revenge regarding a different article. I think you were an innocent bystander that turned into a mess. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:44, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

The article Cantina Laredo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

- @24.251.234.124 Hey there! As @Sjö already mentioned before, " government-funded (or partly funded, as in this case) organizations can be reliable sources and are not excluded just because they are government-funded." Windyshadow32 (talk) 08:34, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
We should start allowing Russians and China to edit our Wikipedia, if that's the case. SAD. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.251.234.124 (talk) 10:27, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
You will allow Government non profit to give reports on gun violence. You may think you're educated, but you are actually not. Eisenhower even gave the speech, I'm sure a mod would know about the Military Industrial Complex, and that man was the most powerful man in the World's History. (He had nukes, when no others did) Don't be naive to RAND my fellow human.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:2021 American television series endings
[edit]![](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 Category:2021 American television series endings requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!
