Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear : Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:

Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes. Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advise, please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~&#126;). The software will automatically convert this into you signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! FCYTravis 09:13, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Michael Cormican
I have deleted the article you wrote because it does not assert the encyclopedicity of the subject. Please examine WP:NOT, specifically WP:NOT a general biographical database. If you have a reason why Mr. Cormican is encyclopedic, let me know and I'll help you improve the article. Thanks, and I hope you find other great ways to contribute to Wikipedia.

 * Please don't resubmit deleted content unless you change it significantly enough to merit a reevaluation. If you believe that the article should be undeleted, please explain why at Deletion Review and Wikipedians will vote on the issue. Thank you. // Pathoschild 18:55, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I have deleted the article again; please take the above comments to heart; as it stands, the article smells slighty of vanity, as it is identical to your user page. Lectonar 09:40, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Hello.
 * My recent attempt to write, cite and source a more fulsome article on my father's book and making Canadian medical history has been taken down. I was wondering, given your offer in the past, if you could review the March 20, 2024 version and help me draft and learn how to better present this article as notable given his accomplishment(s) rather than leaving it as/to the current redirect which is to a list of candidates without any further context to his more notable/recent achievement IMO (ie. medical first and published author)? Thank you in advance. David cormican (talk) 16:24, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Image:0MC-39y.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:0MC-39y.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. – Quadell (talk) (random) 20:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:David Cormican.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:David Cormican.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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. NotifyBot (talk) 13:54, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Image licensing
Hey there...

I am going through a number of images that have some minor licensing issues. I came across Image:David Cormican 141.jpg which you uploaded. The licensing on this image is not complete as it was uploaded many years ago. I wonder if you could follow the link to the image page and correct the licensing with a GFDL license (or other free license). If you have any questions or issues, please drop me a note on my talk page. Thanks. --Jordan 1972 (talk) 01:31, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of David Cormican
A tag has been placed on David Cormican, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information.

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. ▫  Johnny Mr Nin ja  00:20, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
