User talk:Francopoulo

Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Francopoulo! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on or by typing helpme at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 16:01, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Lexical markup framework requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kannie | talk 17:51, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure if I'll be much help, but you may need a disambiguation page. --Kannie | talk 22:05, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Re:Your message
No, the notability warning of Lexical markup framework is not valid now. As its present form the article has all ability for encyclopedic standard. Second, the cleanup tag is present because the article need more relevant internal links, need more references and citations. You can read the policies on Citing sources, Only make links that are relevant to the context. Please try to link the relevant words in the article and provide more references. Thanks.Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 16:22, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * You can remove the cleanup tag now. Regarding citations, try to use inline citation. You can read the policy on Inline citation. This gives a better understanding to the reader that every fact mentioned in the article is verificable. Thanks. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 17:57, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it is possible. You can create a redirect page titled "ISO-LMF". By creating this redirect page, when ISO-LMF is typed in the search field, the reader will go to the Lexical markup framework page. You can read the policy on Redirect.

Multilingual notation
Another editor has added the  template to the article Multilingual notation, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Proposed deletion of Paradigm pattern
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Paradigm pattern, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Phlegm Rooster (talk) 06:52, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Scribo
A tag has been placed on Scribo 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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

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.

 * Hi, I have deleted Scribo as being non-notable organisation. If you need it back as a user page, say User:Francopoulo/Scribo, please ask me. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:12, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Gil Francopoulo
Hello Francopoulo,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gil Francopoulo for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Barney the barney barney (talk) 13:36, 5 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Please don't write about yourself, Gil. See WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY, WP:COI. Barney the barney barney (talk) 13:43, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at Gil Francopoulo
Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from Gil Francopoulo. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps: Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willing to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 14:13, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says [ Click here to contest this speedy deletion].
 * 2) This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.


 * You can talk to me on my talk page like any normal editor. Have you read WP:COI and WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY? Barney the barney barney (talk) 14:58, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Notability
Please look at WP:BIO which is our policy on biographical articles. Also, please look at WP:RS about the reliable independent sources needed to prove the notability. I would suggest looking at WP:AUTOBIO as well. By the way, Barney is a human editor, and like all of us is a volunteer with other lives to lead. It is not compulsory to enable email, and we use it mainly for things that are better not posted on talk pages (things such as information on identifying certain vandals, and other confidential stuff). We all have talk pages. Peridon (talk) 17:05, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Flag icons in infoboxes
Please do not add flag icons in (biographical) infoboxes as they are usually discouraged. See WP:INFOBOXFLAG. Finnusertop (talk &#124; guestbook &#124; contribs) 17:57, 11 September 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.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Francopoulo. All or some of your addition(s) to International Speech Communication Association has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 16:40, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
