A tag has been placed on File:WindSeeker Canadas Wonderland April12011.jpg 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 that looks like this: 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 copyright problem with File:Knotts Windseeker Concept 2.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Knotts Windseeker Concept 2.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. 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 uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Themeparkgc  Talk  01:27, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Knotts Windseeker Concept 2.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Knotts Windseeker Concept 2.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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 20:05, 28 April 2011 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. 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. jcgoble3 (talk) 20:05, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. One of your recent contributions to Canada's Wonderland has been reverted or removed, because it contains speculative or unconfirmed information about a future event. Wikipedia has a policy called "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball", which discourages such edits.

Fair use rationale for File:Knott's Windseeker2011.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Knott's Windseeker2011.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.

 Thanks for uploading File:Knott's Windseeker2011.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. SchuminWeb (Talk) 15:37, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:CW WindSeeker.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:CW WindSeeker.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

the file is a non-free image with incomplete rationale but claimed as fair use.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Themeparkgc  Talk  04:12, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I am prepared to believe that you took this photo. So why on earth did you apply a fair use tag? I suggest that you re-upload it to the Commons, properly identified as your own work and selecting "Multi-license with CC-BY-SA-3.0 and GFDL". &mdash; RHaworth 10:00, 31 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Here's a quote from Dom497 from my talk page:
 * I asked my friend if he had a good picture of WindSeeker (he went this past weekend). He asked me if it can be from FB (he has an account) and i said probably not. So he emiled his own picture to me and said i can put 'own work'. It turns out later that it was another persons photo from FB and he just sent it to me. So that picture is out and will be deleted.
 * Hopefully this clears it up a little. Themeparkgc   Talk  10:37, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Outdated message on Talk:WindSeeker

A tag has been placed on Liam Gerrad requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Psyclone (ride), please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

AGT Season 6 Round Chart
Hi; Even though we did do the chart that way last year (where we colored and bolded in every contestant), it sparked a discussion months later over the article's accessibility. It turns out that the editor who posted that was right, because we overused color highlighting per the policy WP:COLOR, and also overused bold text per WP:MOSBOLD. The multiple colors are also not very good for people with color-blindness, and for people with e-readers and some mobile devices. It also is a strain on the eyes.

I'm suggesting this year we do a more Britain's Got Talent (series 5)-like round chart. In my opinion, the chart done in that article looks cleaner and is accessible to everyone. Gamer9832 (talk) 15:54, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Re:BioShock 2 GAN review
Hi, I just saw the review that you left for BioShock 2. While I agree that the article is not GA-ready, I have a few concerns about your review: First, plot sections in video games and other media generally do not have references- they are implicitly sourced to the game/media itself. Second, "A few more pictures" will not help the article pass GAN, as pictures are not a requirement there or anywhere. In fact, for most reviewers it would stand out as a problem, as all BioShock 2 images are copyrighted, so using them as decoration would be a violation of fair use laws. Thirdly, I'm surprised that you only raised those issues, given that the Gameplay section has a huge tag on it, Multiplayer goes into excessive detail on the modes, Development has a big table of hardware requirements for no reason, Music is a single sentence, and Reception has a longer table than prose (and has a cite-needed tag). Those are issues that I saw just by scrolling down. You reviewing articles for GAN is really appreciated, but it's not helpful to nominators or their articles to not tell them about the serious issues. -- Pres N  17:02, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Promotional material uploads just changes what the fair-use rationale is on the image page, it doesn't change the fact that the image is still copyrighted. Wikipedia fair-use rules are pretty straight-forward: if the image is copyrighted, you need a good reason to include it. Most video games should have 2- the infobax image to identify the subject, and one really good gameplay image to show what the game looks like, the ui elements, etc. You can sometimes get away with another if there's other aspects of the game that need an image to explain (like the characters), but you can't just throw in images and say "oh, this image shows this area of the game, and this one that". Do remember, though, that at WP:WIAGA it says that images are not required for a GA; you should just have them if they're easy to get and are needed. -- Pres N  18:06, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

-Thank you for your time and effort on the review, it is appreciated! Mordecairule 14:11, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Non-free content criteria
Hello Dom. You will have noticed that I nominated some of your images for deletion. You should read (again if you already have) Wikipedia's non-free content criteria. Images that are replaceable, like a rendering of a roller coaster track from Canada's Wonderland, are completely replaceable by a photograph of the ride, and therefore are not eligable for use on Wikipedia. The same goes for the nightly Starlight Spectacular. If you can take a photograph of it, a fair use image of it can not be used here. If you have any questions, let me know, I would be glad to help. --kelapstick(bainuu) 06:42, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Re: WindSeeker A-Class???
I'm not too sure, since most wikiprojects don't really use A-Class. One thing I would say for any further article improvements is to either go through a copyedit at WP:GOCE or to put the article up for peer review at WP:PR, or both if you're looking at FAC in the future.

 * I tried to look somewhere else that say that the ride cycle is different but youtube is the only place I can find. I know I am not wrong but the ride cycle is a major difference that we should point out, but there can't be a better source that a video of the actual ride itself. Giggett (talk) 19:45, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Well I don't have my speakers working right now but just by looking at the video, you can see that the swings don't start going out until the ride goes higher than Silver Bullet. This is one of the modifications Knott's has added to the original ride cycle the other 3 have. Giggett (talk) 21:24, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I never said anything about rotation. I said that the swings at Knott's don't start expanding outward until it reaches the height of Silver Bullet (about 100 feet or so), unlike the swings at Canada where they start to expand as soon as the ride grabs speed. Also, the swings at Knott's only stay at the top for like 20 seconds or so (you can see this on any youtube video), unlike the swings at Canada where they stay at the top for a full minute. But like you said, who cares anyway. :P I'm just glad that the article is up at GA class, I can't even get my own articles up to B class. Giggett (talk) 05:20, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
