Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Chariovalda, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Batavi (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

No image of Tacitus survives
Hello, Per WP:V please provide a basis and source for your statement that "No image of Tacitus survives". Please also read WP:Truth. These statements can not be issued as edicts and per WP:V need to be substantiated by WP:RS sources. Please do not revert, sans discussion here about your sources for the stated claim. Thank you. History2007 (talk) 04:23, 31 January 2012 (UTC)


 * A source of my statement is the caption of the image on this page Tacitus. The notion that this image is of Tacitus seems to have originated here which seems to be a reliable source. Where is this antique bust now I wonder? How was it determined that this bust is a faithful representation of Tacitus? Flaviusvulso (talk) 02:49, 1 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you for discussing it rather than reverting. But the way Wikipedia works, unless you have a source that says Mr X faked this image you have no basis (per WP:V) for sating that "No image of Tacitus survives" for that would be your own reasoning, which falls under WP:OR. And a reading of WP:Truth would be essential here. So we can all wonder, but in the absence of WP:RS sources the statement "No image of Tacitus survives" fails WP:V and can not be used in Wikipedia. I do not create Wiki-policy, I just follow it. History2007 (talk) 03:02, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Re: User pages
Sorry, I just realized what happened, and was going to tell you. That page ended up in the main space, like an article would. To make a page in your userspace, you need to put the word User: before the title. Want me to restore the page and move it to the correct one? Academic Challenger (talk) 03:56, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Ironically, it looked at first like you were the vandal and were posting the warnings given to you for some reason! But looking at the contributions this is clearly not the case. Academic Challenger (talk) 03:58, 7 February 2012 (UTC)


 * No problem. I was just saving some sample messages. Could you restore the page please? Flaviusvulso (talk) 04:01, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Done. I created the page User:Flaviusvulso/ForVandals by restoring, moving and redeleting the page you created. You should fix the link on your user page to go to this correct page. Let me know if you have any questions or need any other assistance. Academic Challenger (talk) 04:08, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, its all good.Flaviusvulso (talk) 04:11, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

WikiProject Dacia

How to change templates
I'd like to make a slight change to this template: "Julio-Claudian dynasty".

How can I do that?


 * It is located at Template:Julio-Claudian dynasty; remove the -helped from the braces above in edit mode here if you need further help about this. Dru of Id (talk) 03:37, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Redundant categories
I removed the Ancient women category from the Thusnelda article because it is already in the Women in first century warfare category, which is a sub category of the Women in ancient warfare category, which is under the parent category of Ancient women. Its redundant. Asarelah (talk) 01:49, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. Thanks. Flaviusvulso (talk) 01:56, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Tragedy And Hope Cover.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Tragedy And Hope Cover.png. 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:18, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Schneider Electric
Someone is blanking my change to Schneider Electric citing Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing as the reason. Not sure if they are correct in doing this. Can I put back my addition?
 * Your previous edits did indeed look to be close paraphrasing of Schneider Electric's website. However, the version you've currently added is, in my opinion, sufficiently different to be permissible. Please be very wary of taking text from sources and trying to amend it in order to circumvent copyright; it is far simpler (and more legal!) to try and reproduce the information behind the content in your own words.
