Orphaned non-free image File:Elisabeth Domitien, Prime Minister of the Central African Republic.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Elisabeth Domitien, Prime Minister of the Central African Republic.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. Stefan2 (talk) 00:55, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. TYTA Mahesh (talk) 01:07, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did, and feel free to use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do. Thank you. TYTA Mahesh (talk) 01:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 1
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Zyta Gilowska, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Paweł Wojciechowski. 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.

Bolding
Hello Gag. I would have hope that you being reverted several times by different users would have given you a clue that the bolding isn't wanted, but now I'm asking outright for you to stop adding it. In particular, bolding in infoboxes doesn't work because the party name appearance is coded, and cannot be bolded, so it looks stupid to have some bits bold and others not.

Non-free image use
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload new images. However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to a page, specifically User:Gag0409/sandbox, may fail our non-free image policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted image of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free image criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:26, 3 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi Gago409, Please be careful when copying and pasting image files into your user sandbox. Not every image file you see on Wikipedia is freely licensed or in the public domain. Certain files have been uploaded locally to Wikipedia as non-free content and there are strict limitations on how these files may be used. Non-free images are only allowed to be used in the article namespace per WP:NFCC; they cannot be used (displayed) in sandboxes. Each image you see on Wikipedia is required to have a copyright license and you can check a particular file's licensing by clicking on the image and looking at the file's page. Image use is tricky and lots of people make good faith mistakes in using them. If, however, you continue to use non-free content in an inappropriate manner, then eventually it's going to be seen as disruptive and a copyright violation, which in turn may lead to an administrator being asked to get involved. The safest thing to do when you're not sure of a particular file's licensing is simply to just not copy it into your sandbox and then ask for help at WP:MCQ. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:34, 3 March 2017 (UTC)


 * You really need to try and be more careful and stop adding non-free images to your sandbox. If you continue to do so, an administrator will be asked to get involved. -- Marchjuly (talk) 15:06, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

Any particular reason you just removed my merger proposal from this page without any comment? I followed the instructions laid out in this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xander 1993 (talk • contribs) 09:19, 23 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks! ― Tartan357  Talk 04:11, 4 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the info, I'll submit my edit with summary from now on. Even for my Sandbox pages. Gag0409 (talk) 07:20, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your attention. You don't need to do it for your sandbox pages, but it might be helpful anyway. ― Tartan357  Talk 07:26, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
