Multiple-prism grating laser oscillators
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Multiple-prism grating laser oscillators, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.opticsjournal.com/laseroscillators.htm.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:01, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/International Conference of Laser Applications
Please refrain from addressing editors directly in AFDs such as you've done in Articles for deletion/International Conference of Laser Applications. Focusing on the article and it's merits rather than individual editors will lend more weight to your arguments.--RadioFan (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * This AFD has been cleaned up a bit to make it clear who is responding and to what comment. If you wish to express that the article should be kept please change your initial entry there to keep rather than the current comment.  Also consider using the : character to endent comments to make it clear that you are responding to another editor's entry.  This will make it easier for others to read and add their thoughts on the AFD.  --RadioFan (talk) 15:45, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:FJ DUARTE-N SLIT INTERFEROMETER.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:FJ DUARTE-N SLIT INTERFEROMETER.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Welcome, but be careful
Welcome to Wikipedia. Here are suggested readings: WP:SECONDARY and WP:COI. The gist of these guidelines are:
 * Wikipedia prefers citations to reviews and books, not primary journal references (tens of thousands appear annually). Citing secondary sources is the encyclopedic style.
 * Do not cite yourself or your colleagues. It's called conflict of interest.  Many new editors cite themselves mainly.  Such behavior is inappropriate although new editors make this mistake.  Happy editing. --Smokefoot (talk) 01:25, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Conflict of interest
Hello, Corrigendas. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
 * instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you.--Srleffler (talk) 05:41, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

You should not be promoting your book or your website on Wikipedia. Do not post references or links to either one.--Srleffler (talk) 05:41, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
