Hezza, Gazza and now Zza nicknames
You seem to think I am the enemy here. I am really an inclusionist. I do not like deleting articles and much prefer to keep articles. As a result, I will leave your latest effort alone, but I do point out that what you have done by creating a new article, just before one is deleted with the same material, is against the policies of WP. If I understand matters correctly, and I may not, any Admin who comes across your new article can speedy delete it as being the same as an article that has been deleted. The new article still has all the old problems. There is no real name for the thing you are talking about, and how do readers get there? At least put a link on all articles that are linked from the article, including the one on the Prince of Wales and Macca. This of course will draw the attention of more people to your article and they may, like me, think it is unencyclopedic. You have to risk that. --Bduke 08:51, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. I was unaware that I was breaking any rules. You had invited improvement and so I sought to provide this. I did say what I was doing though maybe you missed by previous note unedr the old heading. I regret any brecah of convention. There are plenty of links already, though I recognise your point. I doubt this article is any "worse" than nicknames and is arguably more "focused". I genuinely don't think this is "unencylopaedic" and some others have that opinion too. How else are such articles presented in the many tomes that report popular language? Grateful for your forebearance and indeed for your help at an earlier stage. Anyway it's the first dry day we've had here for some time - and there's the Monaco Grand Prix - so I'll leave it there. --IXIA 09:28, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Please don't remove the wikification from dates that include day and month (and year); this is necessary in order for user's date-format preferences to show. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 09:15, 30 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. The reason for the linking is that users set their preferred date format, and linking makes the date show up in their browsers according to their preferences, regardless of how it's written in the code.  For example:
 * 26 March 2005 = 26 March 2005
 * March 26 2005 = March 26 2005
 * 2005 March 26 = 2005 March 26
 * You should see all the dates on the right in the same format, though they're written in U.K., U.S., and Japanese form respectively. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 12:19, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

When I first saw "It girl" it seemed wrong, and when I followed the link to the Wikipedia article it confirmed that the normal modern usage is reserved for Hollywood starlets and the like. That looked right to me, but do you think that the article has it wrong. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 17:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I would have to say that the It girl article seems a little "wrong". I think the introduction should be re-written. When read, it seems like it's describing a certain one person, if you catch my drift. I don't think it meets Wikipedia standards. Sorry. Nikki88 18:27, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Ambrose (bandleader)
I've jusy been doing some minor work on this article, and I found a sentence that you added recently, starting: "His major in the years leading up to the war was the singer Vera (later Dame Vera) Lynn (b. 1917)". His major what? I considered "find", "protegee", etc., but I'm not sure which was intended. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 09:44, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Dad's Army
Hello IXIA, I am pretty impressed by your Elizabeth Mainwaring article; I hadn't thought there would be so much to write about her - it rather makes the other character pages look a bit short! Are you a fan of Dad's Army? If so, you could consider joining WikiProject Dad's Army, which is a group of users working towards writing a conclusive set of articles on and about Dad's Army. Thanks! Bob 18:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Hello, I'm just wondering whether this might be better being slightly compressed and merged into Captain Mainwaring's article? I think with hindsight maybe the wikiproject went a bit overboard creating too many unmanagable character articles, when it should have really been about getting the main Dad's Army page to a decent standard. Anyway, as it's your article, I'll leave it with you. Thanks. Bob talk 15:55, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

WAGs
I like what you you have done with the WAGs article. Reads like a proper wikipedia article now.

The Verger
Aha, yes I read it earlier and added a link from the template to it. Once again, it's very comprehensive, and makes my vicar one look a bit rubbish in comparison. I guess I'll have to improve it, although you're more than welcome to - "You're not having the vicar's clicker!" Bob 21:57, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Casual chic
I don't mean to hassle you, but I thought I'd bring to your attention my request for an article on Casual chic, at the Requests page.

Thanks! TimNelson 22:56, 3 December 2006 (UTC)


 * To follow up on your request for more information, I refer you to both Dress code (Western) and Cracking the Dress Code.


 * Maybe we just need a redirect or something. But "Casual chic" is a term I think I hear more often than the others, so there should be something on Wikipedia which says something about it :).

Samantha Juste
Hi IXIA. Obviously you're right, I'm not old enough to remember Samantha Juste on TOTP (or anything else for that matter) but I'm not convinced she got her name from the character in Bewitched, especially since that series didn't start until 1964 by which time, I think, she had already chosen the name.

Re: Gamine
Oops! Oh, Lord, truly sorry: it was purely a mistake. I clicked "Edit" to copy and paste it into the Portuguese wiki, then started translating on the very same window. The wrong thing was that I should never had pressed "Save page" afterwards, only copy the translated text to Wiki-pt. I wouldn't notice it if you hadn't told me.

Barbara Ferris Article
Hello,

Why is Barbara Ferris' Article written as though she were dead? All of the text speaks in the past tense. As far as I know she's still among the living. -- Michael David 15:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Many_Rice-Davies_in_Private_Eye.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Many_Rice-Davies_in_Private_Eye.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 21:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Many_Rice-Davies_in_Private_Eye.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Many_Rice-Davies_in_Private_Eye.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 01:40, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

 * The above templated message explains pretty clearly why the image was deleted. Do you have any specific questions about this image or our policy on replaceable non-free content? (ESkog)(Talk) 23:05, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
 * The problem is simply that for living people, we can only rarely justify using non-free images to illustrate them, since a free image could reasonably be created. That means that the image is what we call "replaceable". In this instance, both I (the tagger) and another admin (the deleter) felt that the image was clearly replaceable by a free image.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Nikita VHS cover.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Nikita VHS cover.JPG. 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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. BJBot (talk) 01:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Plum_Sykes.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Plum_Sykes.JPG. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calliopejen1 (talk) 07:37, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

New Amys
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article New Amys, 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add  to the top of New Amys.

Thanks for uploading Image:Alec Douglas-Home - D R Thorpe.JPG. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

The following images also have this problem:

 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? (ESkog)(Talk) 19:01, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:Beverly Bivens EP.jpg)
 Thanks for uploading File:Beverly Bivens EP.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 19:22, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Panel of What's My Line.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:Panel of What's My Line.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.

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 uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:26, 12 November 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 06:26, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Janet King


The article Janet King has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines for fictional characters.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Neelix (talk) 19:31, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of Janet King
I have nominated Janet King, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Janet King. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns.

Speedy deletion nomination of Michelle Dockrey


A tag has been placed on Michelle Dockrey 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.

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; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), 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. 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. VQuakr (talk) 08:29, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Effie Gray
Hi, IXIA, I see that you have read the book "The Model Wife". I have not yet read it, and I can't get hold of it before I need to say something about Effie Gray in a university context. Would you be so kind as to tell me whether there is any detailed discussion in the book about the question of what aspect of "her person" Ruskin is supposed to have found disgusting? Sorry to bother you about this. Thanks. Paul B (talk) 19:10, 16 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm pretty familiar, having written this book . I find the menstural blood argument odd, since anyone as familiar with the Bible as Ruskin was would be very well aware of the concept of menstrual cycles. We also know he consulted a medical expert and that there was a medical statement concerning Effie's lack of deformities, which suggests to me that something about the shape of her body was the issue rather than its fluids. Still, that's very helpful, thanks. Paul B (talk) 14:18, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

How Did You Come Up With This Information?


Is this your interpretation of the source?Curb Chain (talk) 02:14, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

In the diff, you added "'. Welch's rise to fame, as Florence + the Machine, coincided with the publication of Franny Moyle's study of the private lives of the Pre-Raphaelites (Desperate Romantics, 2009) and its dramatisation by BBC television in the summer of 2009.".

File permission problem with File:66 North skirt (3).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:66 North skirt (3).jpg, which you've sourced to photo of street poster for 66deg North skirt. 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 take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

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 File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File 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.

Usborne on Wodehouse
Hi. It seems that you are quite knowledgeable in this area. Might I ask a question?

I have started reading some Wodehouse again after a gap of maybe 20 years.

I recall that there is a book by Usborne where he gives his personal opinions about which books are better and worse. I believe it is from that book that I know that Something Fresh is a good one.

Do you recall which Usborne book I am thinking of?

 * Sin bin. Do not try to fix the POV in any article involving our fellow countrymen in either Cymru or the Old Sod, or face the wrath of fanatical nationalism.
 * They are even worse than the Québécois over here.
 * Neither of those books is ringing a bell for me.
 * I am thinking of a paperback (Penguin?), not long, oversize?, yellow(ish) cover. He looks at Mulliner -- which ones are good. Uncle Fred -- what's good. Golf, what's good.
 * My favourite used bookshop here recently received a shipment of remaindered US hardcovers.
 * Everything with "Jeeves" in the title went quickly.
 * But not Mating Season, which I've read before, because of its Jeeves-less title.
 * Another shopper was aware of Psmith.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Seven Dials Mystery - Agatha Christie II.JPG
Thank you for uploading File:Seven Dials Mystery - Agatha Christie II.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Sophie Gray


A tag has been placed on Sophie Gray requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
 * disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
 * is a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 14:00, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Inviting you to take place in a discussion about Chris Mullin page
Hi, how are you?

As you know, right now the Chris Mullin page leads directly to the basketball player, which I find a tad ridiculous, as outside of the US, hardly anyone has heard of him, and in Britain when they say Chris Mullin they clearly refer to the politician Chris Mullin (politician).

I've started a discussion on the Talk:Chris Mullin page, under the title Talk:Chris Mullin, and would really appreciate it if you could voice your piece there.

Thank you! Maxim.il89 (talk) 00:57, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ledshire


The article Ledshire has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Element is entirely unsourced or primary sourced, and does not have significant coverage in reliable third party sources as required by the WP:GNG. A search reveals nothing to establish WP:Notability, with passing mentions at best."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
