Image copyright problem with Image:Lillias Hamilton 1895.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Lillias Hamilton 1895.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 00:33, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Adeline Knapp
You did a great job with the edit changes you made to the Adeline Knapp article. Quite an interesting woman. I happened to edit as part of the WikiProject wikify. Happy to see an image of her. I added the other references that you indicated were needed and removed the tag. Cindamuse (talk) 12:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Saka no ue no Kumo (TV series)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Saka no ue no Kumo (TV series), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Saka no Ue no Kumo. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 09:20, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

July 2010
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Saka no Ue no Kumo a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

 * Hi, thanks for the advice, I can see the point about the history and will try harder to follow the procedure in the future. Actually, I did have a look at WP:MOVE but to be honest, the procedure appeared so complex and time consuming that I really couldn't make head or tail of it, and simply wouldn't have bothered.  Looking at it again, now, I can see that was mainly because of all the well-meant warnings to prevent people from too much unnecessary page moving, but are there really so many people who want to do this for fun?  I think even vandals must have more interesting things to do.  For someone like myself, who sees a problem with a group of pages and how it can be fixed, it would be nice if the instructions would cut to the chase and explain quickly how to get the job done, perhaps after a very brief suggestion to consider alternatives. I was in a bit of a rush, but I really got the impression I was supposed to put in a nicely worded request for a move and check back in about six months.  If this could be explained without recourse to vector skins and twinkle gadgets, that would be all the better.  Your explanation is very clear: you might be just the person to rewrite the "How to move a page" section so an ordinary PhD like myself with only a decade or so of computer science training can follow it.  Oh, I can see the little "move" tab now...cute, though a little hard to find.  Well, next time.  Thanks again for the explanation and sorry for any trouble... feel free to ignore my rambling comments, but perhaps they might be useful.  Hope the reorganization helped, anyway. --Icuc2 (talk) 15:45, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Ambrose Bierce?
Congratulations on the excellent page for Blanche Partington! I had seen her name mentioned, while researching Ambrose Bierce, but didn't know anything about her until I read your article. I've made a few minor edits to Bierce's page, but am still in the dark about the letters he wrote during his final days. Do you have access to the contents of his letters to Partington, or anybody else? If so, you may be able to help fill in some of the blanks. Please post a note to Bierce's talk page, or just go ahead and edit his article, if you can add anything to our knowledge of the man. DutchmanInDisguise (talk) 00:28, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your message and the link to the Bierce site. I know I've visited the site several times, but must have missed that particular page. I will definitely try to incorporate it into Bierce's page. DutchmanInDisguise (talk) 04:22, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

I just edited the Bierce page and added a quote from his last letter to Blanche to the story of his disappearance. Please check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks, DutchmanInDisguise (talk) 03:38, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Leonie-Japan-flyer-50dpi.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Leonie-Japan-flyer-50dpi.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 '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) 04:12, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Survey: use of Chronicling America on Wikipedia
Icuc2:

My name is Donald Taylor and I'm the Wikipedian-in-Residence with the University of Maryland Libraries, Historic Maryland Newspapers Project. The Historic Maryland Newspapers Project is a part of the National Digital Newspaper Program, a joint program of the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities. We are digitizing historic state newspapers for inclusion in the Library of Congress's Chronicling America online digital collection of America’s historical newspapers.

We are conducting a survey of Wikipedia contributors who have cited Chronicling America as a reference in their edits to Wikipedia. It is the objective of our study to identify ways that Chronicling America might be made a better resource for people editing Wikipedia. We recently used Linkypedia to identify contributors who have used Chronicling America. As an editor who has made use of Chronicling America, we hope that you will take our survey.

If you are interested in taking our survey, you can do so at this website.

More information about the survey is provided before you begin answering survey questions. Participation in the survey is strictly voluntary. It should take you less than thirty minutes to complete. You must be at least 18 years old to participate. If you have any questions about this survey, you can contact Donald Taylor, Wikipedian-in-Residence for the Historic Maryland Newspapers Project, at dwtii@umd.edu, or Elizabeth Caringola, Historic Maryland Newspapers Project Librarian, at ecaringo@umd.edu.

If you decide to take this survey, please do so within a week, by Wednesday, 30 July 2014.

Thank you for your contribution to our study.

Request for input
I see you have had previous involvement with the editor Hijiri88. I would welcome any input you might see fit to offer at WP:ANI. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 18:20, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Kenji draft
Hey Icuc2, sorry to bother you with this again, but recent developments have made me worried that if I go to all the trouble of completely rewriting the article and radically increasing its coverage of the stuff you said I should, when I try to overlay the draft on the article I will immediately be reverted and forced to discuss each individual point for weeks on end as I have up to this point on the relatively tiny matter of whether "Kokuchukai" and "nationalism" should be mentioned in the lead.

Do you also think I should just give up and make "piecemeal" edits? I took your specifically requesting that the article be radically expanded to discuss literary influence, style, major works, etc. as a blessing on the project, especially in the light of your previous ANI posts, but was I wrong to read it this way? I have reverted my own removal of the Kokuchukai name-drop in the lead of my redraft in the hopes that there are no other problems. Pending discussion of course. Other users' comments were unclear, so there probably isn't a "consensus" on that issue one way or the other.

But...

Hijiri 88 ( 聖やや ) 13:07, 1 May 2015 (UTC)


 * At the moment I like the sandbox idea. Not sure if you'll ever get consensus on it--you'll only have a shot at that if you bend over backwards to incorporate everyone's suggestions--but it will make a useful reference draft in any case. Hard to tell what process would work with this group of editors.--Icuc2 (talk) 15:39, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts.

Kushibiki Yumindo moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Kushibiki Yumindo, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Hughesdarren (talk) 09:47, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kushibiki Yumindo has been accepted
 Kushibiki Yumindo, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as B-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. This is a fantastic rating for a new article, and places it among the top NaN% of accepted submissions — major kudos to you! You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the  [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&action=edit&section=new&nosummary=1&preload=Template:AfC_talk/HD_preload&preloadparams%5B%5D=Kushibiki_Yumindo help desk] . Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider.

Thanks again, and happy editing! SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 16:24, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
