License tagging for Image:UFano.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:UFano.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 09:06, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Using "Show preview" button instead of "Save page"
Dear Charles, welcome to Wikipedia! I really enjoyed the page you have recently created.

Quick tip: when composing or editing a wikipedia page, and if circumstances permit, consider using "Show preview" button instead of "Save page", to check how your edit in progress would look like when published. Of course, remember to hit "Save page" when you have to leave your computer. Rememer, that each "Saved" edit will be stored in Wikipedia indefinitely (check out the "history" tab on top of each page), as long as the article exists. This way, I think, using "Show preview" will eliminate a lot of need for unnecessary storage of past intermediate versions on Wiki servers. Xenonice (talk) 04:49, 23 January 2008 (UTC).

Image copyright problem with Image:RR Georgetown.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:RR Georgetown.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 04:58, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Katharine Blodgett Gebbie


The article Katharine Blodgett Gebbie has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no reliable references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. KGirlTrucker81talk what I'm been doing 13:53, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! 220  of  Borg 05:23, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

File source problem with File:F4-Plot of the Gamma function.png
Thank you for uploading File:F4-Plot of the Gamma function.png. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

WP:ERA
I get it, I prefer BCE/CE as well. But arbitrarily changing it like that, is a serious no no. It's basically policy to never change established styles, neither is preferred by policy, and to unilaterally change it, and then edit war over it, is a quick way to a block around here. If you really want to change it, argue it on the talk page. But I know from experience, it's pretty much a losing endeavor.  He  iro  04:53, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
