Unspecified source for Image:Brisk cutting-japuraalwis@yahoo.jpegcom.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Brisk cutting-japuraalwis@yahoo.jpegcom.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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. 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 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 15:08, 11 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Dhandu Monara
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Dhandu Monara, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Dhadu Monara. 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.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and 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) 09:15, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Sri Lanka Air Force Rescue Mission on 29th July 2008
Hi, Japuraalwis! The recent article you created, Sri Lanka Air Force Rescue Mission on 29th July 2008 may be tagged with. It also has no references. As the article deals with a topic related to a very sensitive subject (Sri Lankan civil war), it is important that it should be verified with reliable sources. The links you have given will not be counted as 'reliable' sources. I have tried to find some sources that can verify this, but have been unsuccessful so far (sources such as defence.lk cannot be used alone and independent sources are necessary). The article may be deleted if it is not improved. Thanks. Chamal   Talk 12:47, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Gin River
While trying to find coordinates for the Wakwella Bridge, I looked in various articles which give a clue as to where the bridge is. One of those is the article for the Gin River. I'm reworking this article, adding categories and such. It needs references, links to relevant articles, and expansion if at all possible. Ask if you have any questions, please. - Denimadept (talk) 18:48, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Pooneryn
A tag has been placed on Pooneryn requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader.

Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 06:47, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
