Orphaned non-free media (File:TWO.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:TWO.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 23:22, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Dreamcast
As you may have noticed, I have reverted your edits to Dreamcast. This is not in any way to prevent you from editing it or anything, but simply because the edits did not improve (and in fact slightly damaged) the article. So as to avoid any further edit-reverts, I thought I'd discuss it. So as to keep this concise etc, I'll post separate points with separate edits. Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk ) 11:18, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Quotation
Your first edit, the addition of the quotation, was not detrimental in itself, but it didn't really add anything to the article. Quotations should be used sparingly, if at all, if paraphrasing is not sufficient to convey the sentiment; they should not be included simply for the sake of it. The quote you added appears to have dealt with the Sega Saturn, rather than the Dreamcast - while the Saturn is relevant to the article and the creation of the Dreamcast, it should only be over to such an extent as to give the Dreamcast's conception context. A quote such as that might be appropriate if it also contrasted the Dreamcast with the Saturn, but as it was, it wasn't really relevant. Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk ) 11:24, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * It was an important quote. Bernie Stolar's lack of confidence with the Saturn was what influenced the creation of the Dreamcast. The quote shows his opinions of the older console more than "The Saturn is not our [Sega's] future.", which this is too brief.--Capsoul (talk) 17:00, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't deny that and there are certainly ways in which it could be worked into the article, it's just that in the context it really isn't necessary. Simply sticking it at the beginning doesn't add to the readers understanding of the topic and is in fact likely to cause confusion, especially since it isn't mentioned in the prose. For an example of how it could work, take the part where he says "It was too difficult to develop for therefore the games were not fun and the games weren't there." - that could probably be worked in in relation to a bit talking about the Dreamcast's ease of development (although doing so would probably be a synthesis and therefore a policy violation, but you get the general idea). You should also bear in mind that the Dreamcast article doesn't really go that in-depth on the development and origins - that's done in History of the Dreamcast (which is linked at the top of the "History" section on the DC page), so it may be suitable to put the quote in there somewhere, probably in the "Origins & Design" section in relation to why the Saturn was discontinued so quickly (anything else would probably be synthesis again, although it'd have to be seen on a case-by-case basis to tell for sure). If you do do that then the main text should be expanded to take it into account. Also, the quote does not have to be separate from the main text if it works as part of it. Hope this helps. Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk ) 19:28, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * OK.--Capsoul (talk) 19:44, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Splitting to "Launch"
This, again, is not something that is necessarily detrimental, but in this case it is. Splitting launches up into Japan and other regions may well be appropriate, but in this case there just isn't enough info about any of them to justify their own section. Also note, that you split it into "Japan" and "North America", but the "North America" section also contained info about Europe and Australia in the first sentence (and probably throughout - I didn't give it a thorough read). I would say that given the amount that is written about each that, at most, the different regions' launches might deserve their own paragraph, but certainly not their own heading. Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk ) 11:33, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * They need more detail.--Capsoul (talk) 19:50, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, but again don't forget about the History of the Dreamcast page. Also, if you split them, add the info either before or at the same time, otherwise it will be harder for users to navigate/understand in the meantime. Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk ) 19:58, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Quality of life, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

File:Dreamcast prototype 1.jpg
Hello again. I have reverted your edit to History of the Dreamcast and I thought I should explain. First of all, the image is non-free so requires a fair use rationale to be used on a page - for more info on this, see Non-free content. Also, without one it will be auto-deleted after 7 days from when it was uploaded. On to the use in the article itself, non-free images may only be used, as I said,when there is some rationale for their inclusion - they must show something that significantly improves the readers understanding of the subject and cannot be replaced with free images. I don't think that image does, and if it does what it shows should be at least discussed in the article. <font color="#900">Alphathon  /'æl.f'æ.θɒn/ (<font color="#900">talk ) 15:07, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:EABF06.png


A tag has been placed on File:EABF06.png 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.

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," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). 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 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.

File permission problem with File:Googletvlogo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Googletvlogo.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. C T J F 8 3 19:04, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Dreamcast prototype 1.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Dreamcast prototype 1.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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:19, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Google Chrome Extensions Gallery.png
Thanks for uploading File:Google Chrome Extensions Gallery.png. 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) 18:06, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

So, why is my CMYK image worse?
I'm sorry but my image illustrating CMYK is undeniably better. Care to explain why you removed it? --Capsoul (talk) 21:00, 8 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Because the colors you used are 100% combinations of RGB primaries, rather than having any relation to CMYK. –jacobolus (t) 21:45, 8 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, I can understand this as the CMYK colours of my image are not the printout versions as stated by the articles. But, the RGB combinations seem to suit them better as they are not mixed by other colours that do not make them.


 * As for the image itself, I really think it should be replaced. Because frankly, it looks unprofessional and unsuitable. I would be happy to change the colours of my diagram to suit this one. --Capsoul (talk) 01:30, 9 June 2011 (UTC)


 * First, “RGB combinations” are entirely unacceptable. As for your image replacement, (a) Your newer version still has poor color choices, (b) the prior image to my eye looks better – what do you find “unprofessional” about it? (c) the prior image is a vector image, whereas your version is raster – why? (d) why did you make the change as a minor edit? –jacobolus (t) 04:41, 16 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, I did the change the colours of my image to match with the prior one. But, it keeps showing the older image with the RGB combinations in the article. I also do not know how to save an SVG file. --Capsoul (talk) 10:39, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

"Unfinished creative work" to "Unfinished Work"
Hello, I undid your page move of "Unfinished creative work" to "Unfinished Work" as per WP:CAPS which states, in part, "For page titles, always use lowercase after the first word, and do not capitalize second and subsequent words, unless the title is a proper noun." "Unfinished Work", in this situation, does not appear to be a proper noun therefore it goes against the accepted guideline. If you have any questions or comments you can reach me at my talk page.
