Wikipedia is a collaborative project and you are welcome to edit the article if you feel there is something lacking or incorrect. Just make sure your edits are well-sourced and well-written. Some of the links provided in the above welcome message from Ali may help you. In addition, you may contact me on my talk page if you need a hand with anything.

Commercial use of Image:14bc-the-idiots-are-winning.jpeg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:14bc-the-idiots-are-winning.jpeg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:14bc-the-idiots-are-winning.jpeg has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-2.5 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:14bc-the-idiots-are-winning.jpeg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 05:44, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Re:
Concerning which article? I'm sorry I don't follow, but I've been editing an awful lot in the past hour. And you can consider me saving your ass, if I didn't add the tags the article would probably been speedily deleted.--The Dominator (talk) 06:08, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, never mind I see it, sorry I know it's annoying as hell when somebody tags a new article, but I was skimming through the "new articles" and added the references tag, I assume the article would have been speedily deleted because the article doesn't state notability, you should find another source.--The Dominator (talk) 06:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Nathan fake press shot.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Nathan fake press shot.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. 72.88.78.53 (talk) 00:45, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

File copyright problem with File:Nathan fake press shot.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Nathan fake press shot.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 verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. VernoWhitney (talk) 20:00, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Task Force Assembly: Cleaning up proprietary software advertisements disguised as wikipedia articles.
You may have found this informal sign-up sheet mentioned on the talk page for our article on some bbs hosting company called pr0b0ards, which I'm spelling incorrectly as to not incidentally give them any klout or credibility without intending so to do. Anyhow if you're interested in keeping our wikipedia free of advertisements for proprietary software, please create a short sweet and signed subheading below. Thank you, Harlequence (talk) 02:38, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with...

My talk page is messy & out of date, I'd like to clear it but archive the previous version such that I can link to it from my user page. How do I go about archiving a talk page, and where do I (in the future) search for this information so I don't need to ask a person (I tried searching wikipedia for "archiving a page" but got back encyclopedia results when I desired - but did not know how to ask for - internal policy/guidelines/tutorial pages)?

Thank you!

P.S. Upon creating this request I see a lot of links in the "help me" template that may contain the information for which I'm looking. Will go through them at my earliest convenience.

 * Help:Archiving a talk page explains how to archive talk pages. My personal way of doing it consists of three steps:
 * Create the link (in my case, on top of the talk page, not on the user page).
 * Cut the content I want to archive from my talk page.
 * Paste it into the new archive page.
 * Regarding your second question: When you search for something like "achiving a page" and there's no article of that name, the search results page comes with an "advanced" link. That will allow you to search other namespaces than the article namespace; the "Wikipedia" or "Help" namespaces will have how-to pages, guidlines and so on. Huon (talk) 23:44, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
