July 2009
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page CS Ovidiu has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bblog(?:cu|fa|harbor|mybrain|post|savy|spot|townhall)?\.com\b (links: http://ovidiu-online.blogspot.com/). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest). If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 23:59, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Matt Clark.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Matt Clark.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 21:34, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Possibly unfree File:Matt Clark.JPG
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Matt Clark.JPG, has been listed at Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

The article Corbally United has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:37, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "Limerick Desmond League"
A page you created, Limerick Desmond League, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a club or other organization, but it does not indicate how it is important or significant, and thus why it should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for organizations in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Falcon8765 (talk) 20:02, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of R. Dolhain F.C.
A tag has been placed on R. Dolhain F.C. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Proposed deletion of Glenn Piessens


The article Glenn Piessens has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Article about footballer who hasn't played in a fully-pro league and which fails the general notability guideline.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jogurney (talk) 18:56, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Divinity 2 Ego Draconis Box Art.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Divinity 2 Ego Draconis Box Art.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

License tagging for File:SG-1000 Logo.svg
Thanks for uploading File:SG-1000 Logo.svg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 22:06, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Freewar


A tag has been placed on Freewar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding 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. TheRealFennShysa (talk) 18:57, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

That Cleanup Tag you left in the X³: Terran Conflict Article
You left a cleanup tag, but from what I can see those points have been addressed (mostly by yourself). What purpose does that tag serve now - you did not advance any further rationale on the talk page (actually, you never wrote there at all). Coould you please state what issues need cleanup - or can I remove that tag? Thanks, Wefa (talk) 17:13, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Crystal kcontrol.svg


A tag has been placed on File:Crystal kcontrol.svg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding 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.

Replaceable fair use File:Panorama Jales.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Panorama Jales.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 03:33, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Image tagging for File:Encyclopædia Britannica.svg
Thanks for uploading File:Encyclopædia Britannica.svg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

Non-free rationale for File:The Football League.svg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:The Football League.svg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable.

Orphaned non-free image File:Logo Stade Bordelais.svg
 Thanks for uploading File:Logo Stade Bordelais.svg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:57, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 23
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Guild 2, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Patrician ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/The_Guild_2 check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/The_Guild_2?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

File:Guild 2 Character creation.jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Date format
I noticed that some of your recent edits changed dmy dates to mdy format. Please mention why that is desirable in the edit summary. WP:ENGVAR says that spelling and date styles should not be changed without good reason. That good reason needs to be explained somewhere. Johnuniq (talk) 06:36, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Missing cite in Metallurgy during the Copper Age in Europe
The article cites "Cunliffe 1998" but no such source is listed in bibliography. Can you please add? Also, suggest installing a script to highlight such errors in the future. All you need to do is copy and paste importScript('User:Svick/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: User:Svick/HarvErrors.js to your common.js page. Thanks, Renata (talk) 20:22, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Semitic languages
, in your recent set of edits on Semitic languages you removed a large number of in-line citations from the lead section, as you wrote with the objective to "avoid fill up the lead with unwanted, unreliable sources". Much as I agree with your desire that unreliable sources should be removed from Wikipedia wherever possible, I don't see how you want to reach that goal by removing the only citations in the article from facts that clearly need to be referenced, such as population figures that happen to be only presented in the lead. So in that sweeping de-sourcing you removed references to, for example, Owen's Oxford Handbook of Arabic Linguistics, which, as far as I can say, is neither fulfilling your criterion of being unwanted (as this figure of 300 million speakers is not referenced anywhere else in the article, but was in fact quite contested at some stage), nor is it by any reasonable standard an unreliable source. Please revisit your edits and make sure that all facts from which you removed the references are sourced at least once somewhere else in the article, in order to fulfil Wikipedia's much more important requirement to provide reliable sources, which trumps any beautification efforts according to the MOS. BTW, I don't really see any reference in the MOS amounting to a justification of your desire in the note you left behind. Here a relevant citation from the MOS: "The lead must conform to verifiability, biographies of living persons, and other policies. The verifiability policy advises that material that is challenged or likely to be challenged, and direct quotations, should be supported by an inline citation. Any statements about living persons that are challenged or likely to be challenged must have an inline citation every time they are mentioned, including within the lead" and "there is not, however, an exception to citation requirements specific to leads". With this is mind, I believe that your edits are overshooting the intended goals. I'll give you some time (until after Christmas) to rework it to accomplish what you want in an acceptable manner (meaning: adhering to the Wikipedia citation requirements), before I need to revert your edit as a whole.

 * Thanks for taking to heart my previous comment. Now that I see you at work at this, I'm not worried that you'll get it done in good time, so please forget about what may have sounded like an ultimatum to you. Two small content related comments: Ethnologue places the population of Amharic speakers nowadays at 31.8 million, which is twice as much as you state. Secondly, Amharic, since last year, is no longer the sole national language of Ethiopia - it has been joined by Tigrinya, Oromo, Somali and Afar. Best wishes, for now, LandLing 13:00, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
