Speedy deletion nomination of File:Judd Trump.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Judd Trump.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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.

Justify your reverts or don't do them.
I corrected an error on the Stuart Bingham page and you reverted it without even explaining why. And yes, it was an error - the excuse that 'he only had two at the time' doesn't work because he actually only had ONE at the time, so either way it's wrong. 2.31.10.231 (talk) 22:47, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

June 2013
Your recent editing history at Template:Scottish Open (snooker)‎ shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Hey BlueFire10

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Edit summary
Please don't make such ridiculous edit summaries. Both archives (original, new were from the same url. Armbrust The Homunculus 11:52, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
 * No, the url is not the same as one ends with 179638,00.pdf and the other with 179640,00.pdf. The content is of course the same but the archivelink should be from exact the same url. --BlueFire10 Let's talk about my edits?  11:59, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

2013 International Championship‎
Before you make any nowrap-fixes please set you monitor to 1024x768 resolution. I have done so, and no name breaks to two lines. Armbrust The Homunculus 15:45, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I set it to your resolution but still Liang Wenbo in the quarters and Graeme Dott in the semis break over two lines. With my version this was not the case. So these two players have to have the longest width in the cells. In the semis it's obvious that "Graeme Dott" needs more space than "Ding Junhui" even with the bolding of Ding. --BlueFire10 Let's talk about my edits?  16:00, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Did you see it on the German Wikipedia? There the flags are in the same cell as the player. If not, than your monitor needs to be configured, there are no line breaks on mine. However with you version, Ding breaks in two lines in both the QFs and SFs. Armbrust The Homunculus 16:05, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
 * No I saw it here in the English Wikipedia. I just checked the line-breaking at an other monitor and there it seems to be like on your monitor. Even with the same resolution different players had different lengths. So sorry about that I didn't think that this could be the case. --BlueFire10 Let's talk about my edits?  16:27, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

May 2014
Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made&#32;to List of world number-one snooker players: you may already know about them, but you might find Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Armbrust The Homunculus 12:56, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Nickname tables
Your version looks like this to me, and therefore I combined the tables for now. I have made a test in my sandbox. Does it look balanced now? Armbrust The Homunculus 12:19, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, it looks good now, like this on my screen. --BlueFire10 Let's talk about my edits?  12:51, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

2014 General Cup
I see you highlighted the players advancing from the group in the above article, which makes sense, but this has not been done in previous General Cup articles nor in the Six-red World Championship articles. So should the highlighting be removed or should it be kept & the other articles altered? &#9733;&#9734; DUCK IS JAMMMY &#9734;&#9733; 16:16, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I see by your contributions you've gone ahead & highlighted the advancing players from the groups in other articles, which is probable best. The Championship League will still have to be done however. Thanks for correcting the AT2 title world snooker didn't exactly make it clear. &#9733;&#9734; DUCK IS JAMMMY &#9734;&#9733; 20:16, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Should the advancing players in the Championship League articles also be bold, only the 4 greens who do their group play-off or also the fifth player in orange who goes on to the next group? --BlueFire10 Let's talk about my edits?  20:22, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure, the fifth player doesn't go through to the play-offs, but they do continue in the competition. So should that be classed as advancing? I'm uncertain, hence I didn't go ahead & highlight them myself, but the winners' group could be highlighted. &#9733;&#9734; DUCK IS JAMMMY &#9734;&#9733; 20:41, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * What about the idea to highlight the players with a green background in bold and those with an orange are highlighted in italics? This could be better than all 5 players in bold as the 5th player is special and has indeed a different colour. Then we would have 2 different background colours and also 2 different writing formats. --BlueFire10 <sup style="color:#E3A857;">Let's talk <sub style="color:#008000;">about my edits?   16:58, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That sounds like a perfectly sensible solution which I would be in favour of. &#9733;&#9734; DUCK IS JAMMMY &#9734;&#9733; 00:18, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

2014 UK Championship
Hi, except for repairing one factual error, all of your recent changes on 2014 UK Championship (snooker) seems rather non-sensical to me. This biggest problem I have though is with the referencing: why delete perfectly good references in favour of another? Poll3tj3 (talk) 19:11, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The chronological order of centuries with players who are equal can you also find on other snooker tournament articles. The reference with the WPBSA draw I added the one with results in it and also a reference with results of the BBC which is also in last years' article. And you don't need to have the match list of the world snooker scoring when you also have the draw with results which is better and also on other tournament articles. --BlueFire10 <sup style="color:#E3A857;">Let's talk <sub style="color:#008000;">about my edits?  19:21, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * So your argumentation is basically that this is better because you can also find it like this in other snooker tournament articles. While some consistency is probably good have, this in itself does not sound like a very valid argumentation to me. Changes should make a text better, in my opinion. If not, other people, like me, will get the feeling that you're trying to "own" an article. Poll3tj3 (talk) 19:41, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Do you want an alphabetical order of equal centuries when on all other tournament articles it's done chronologically in this case? And what's wrong with an additional reference of the BBC with results? What is with highlighting the centuries in the box of the final? That is surely sensible to have. You really want to tell that all in my edit was needless? I don't think so. --BlueFire10 <sup style="color:#E3A857;">Let's talk <sub style="color:#008000;">about my edits?  19:54, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I believe most of them were needless, and I tried to explain why. And as I said, the main thing to me is the referencing. Nothing wrong with adding one, but you deleted two references as well, which were even actually used while writing the article. Poll3tj3 (talk) 20:18, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
