User talk:Cdsmiley~enwiki

Hi, I just came by to say what a great article Anne Isabella Milbanke is (it's linked to the front page at the moment in the new articles section - called "did you know"). I'm going to do one thing to it, which is to change the curly quotes and apostrophes into straight ones, which is the house style, but I wanted to let you know how much I'd enjoyed reading the article. I know a little about Byron, but knew almost nothing about his wife. :) I see that you're new, so here's a welcome message with a bunch of links you might find useful:

Welcome to Wikipedia!

You might find these links helpful in creating new pages or editing existing articles: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.

If you want to see what other users are doing at the moment, have a look at recent changes. This is a good way to find random articles you might be interested on working on, or you can simply enjoy reading what other wikipedians have to say. Every article has a Talk page (like this one) where you can raise questions or suggest a direction for an article to take. When you make edits to a page, it's a very good idea to add a few words to the summary field to let other users know what you just did (anything from typo to rewrote article)!

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!


 * If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.

 * If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

Again, welcome! :) fabiform | talk 10:54, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

She Walks in Beauty
Hi, there. I saw that you appear to be a promising editor, but that your article on the intriguing poem She walks in Beauty is likely being deleted as I type. There's quite a good reason for that; Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and just including the full text of a poem falls rather outside its scope. (Personally, I find that including it wouldn't hurt, but has possibilities of setting a dangerous precedent... agh, I'm too tired to think about this right now.)

Where it would be appropriate is the admittedly more obscure sister project of Wikisource, which deals in just this sort of thing. Unless Lord Byron's works are somehow not in the public domain, of course.

If the poem's notable enough to warrant an article, then one about its metaphors, impact, fame and suchlike could perfectly well include a Wikisource link to the text, but I don't know enough of the author's works to tell. -- Kizor 00:15, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Anabella_Milbanke.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Anabella_Milbanke.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. 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 Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:31, 16 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. OsamaK 19:31, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

NowCommons: Image:Eliza.jpg
Image:Eliza.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:Image:ElizaPoe.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case:. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 20:10, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Cdsmiley. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cdsmiley~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 22:52, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
