License tagging for File:WoodSpoon.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:WoodSpoon.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 05:08, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group
Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.

I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!

Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page. Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 02:41, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

File:Priezd-griboedova-v-sp-kriv.jpg needs authorship information
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Priezd-griboedova-v-sp-kriv.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template.

If you have any questions please see Help:File page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 04:06, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 04:58, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 09:18, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Tenant (Office 365) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Tenant (Office 365), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?)

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:28, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Password Change Notification Service


The article Password Change Notification Service has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP: NOTABILITY and lacks any information or citations which makes it inclusion as an article worthwhile."

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Totalvision


A tag has been placed on Totalvision requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.cinematheque.fr/fr/catalogues/appareils/collection/objectif-anamorphoseur-de-prise-de-vuesap-03-2430.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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.

Draft:Totalvision
Hi. I've moved this to draft, where you can work to try to bring it up to the required standard for inclusion and then submit it for review. Please do not move it to article space yourself. Deb (talk) 20:26, 25 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, Kdmitry,
 * I see you didn't follow this advice and recreated this article back in main space. That was not appropriate. Liz Read! Talk! 01:44, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, good evening Liz. Frankly, I am a bit surprised that after many years of writing articles this is a new rule of some sorts. 1) I get it, translating a page form French is not a Wikipedia article a) I have done my best to actually create an article. If you think it should be a draft first... well alright, let's mark it as a draft.
 * Would you pint me to the a rule where articles must be created a drafts? How new is this rule? Thanks! Kdmitry (talk) 02:40, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
 * There is no rule that articles must be created as drafts. There is also no rule that you can't translate from a Wikipedia article in another language - but that's not what you did; you translated from a copyright article on another site. However, in view of your failure to follow the guidelines first time round, you were asked to submit your article for review when you recreated it. You have also removed tags that were placed on your article second time around. Deb (talk) 09:20, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Deb, I see that you are a volunteer administrator and a veteran of Wikipedia, I do appreciate your time and work. As an admin you should have a clear timeline of events, right? So let's review:
 * 1. Author creates an article based on a translation of copyrighted material (not good)
 * 2. The article is tagged for speedy deletion (rightfully so)
 * 3. Admin Deb marks an article that was tagged for speedy deletion as a "draft" and suggests to re-submit it as a draft (alright, that's doable)
 * 4. Author comes back to re-write the article in a required fashion to find that his article is fully deleted -- draft or otherwise, it is gone for good
 * 5. Author re-writes a new article putting a lot of effort and research into it. It is published in the main space since the author considers this article worthy of Wikipedia standard and notable enough for the world to preserve the knowledge about cinematographic history. This particular Author has done so for many years without any issues, in fact not even being aware of "draft" mode existence up until admin Deb has mentioned it. Naturally, Author hopes that others will contribute to the article whenever it is necessary to enhance the material.
 * 6. Another reviewer Onel5969 marks an article as "not notable", and "Uncategorized", since the author neglected to add categories, leaving the review open to a wide audience vs pointing to somebody with some kind of knowledge of the subject, or an interest in a specific category.
 * 7. Author follows the rules and adds "notability" references, clearly following Wikipedia rules, then he removes the "not notable" tag exactly as Wikipedia rules guide him to do
 * 8. A day later admin Deb returns to the space to chastise the Author for not following her advice (pardon me if I am wrong with my pronouns), saying that there's no RULE that prevents a user from doing exactly what he did. Moreover, she mixes up multiple events saying following your failure to follow the guidelines first time round and you were asked to submit your article for review while in the same sentence saying There is no rule that articles must be created as drafts. Additionally, admin Deb forgoes the history review of the current page and says You have also removed tags that were placed on your article second time around, while Wikipedia rules are clearly saying: Maintenance templates (or "tags") are not removed automatically. Even if you fix the issue(s) described in a maintenance template, the tag will remain in the article until you or someone else manually removes it. The mechanics of removal are usually as simple as clicking "Edit" at the top of the page or in the section involved (if you're not already in edit mode), removing the code that produces the display of the template, and leaving an edit summary, and saving the page.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Maintenance_template_removal
 * The author has clearly done so by fixing the issues found and has added a comment while removing that tag, exactly as prescribed:
 * Removing "notability|1=Companies|date=August 2022" tag. Added context, categories, and more references should demonstrate the notable value of this entry. Totalvision was a European counterpart and competitor to Cinemascope in North America from the 1960s-the 1970s. The film format war is the rough equivalent of the VHS vs Betamax format war of the late 1970s into 1980s. It is significant to preserve references to that era and events for all who are interested in the cinematography's history
 * So, while I appropriate your vigilance @Deb, I believe that you have your facts a little bit confused and possibly overreacting. Thank you for your time. Regards. Kdmitry (talk) 18:21, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what the issue is you have here Kdmitry. You rightly accept your wrongdoing in posting a translated version of copyrighted material which I detected, and you accept that was not an appropriate action. deb should have deleted this outright rather than draftify, but that's by-the-by and we have resolved that matter. However, the advice/suggestion to you, that you were asked to develop any future iteration of the article in draftspace is entirely reasonable and based on the uncertainties surrounding your understanding of copyright and what is an appropriate article. I don't think there is any contradiction in the statement, as it's clearly stated writing a draft first is not mandatory (or a rule as you note), but that you were asked (as a voluntary action) to do so, but not required. The mention of moving maintenance tags may be due to a lack of additional sufficient/appropriate references to support the prose, though I do observe the additional of what appear to be two offline foreign-language sources. I do have concerns over the sourcing of the "Italy" section though.
 * For what it's worth, I think you have made a fair effort to address the copyvio concerns I raised and when I cross-checked, could not identify any copyvio issues on the current article. I am not wholly sold on notability, however as I noted to deb, that would only really be a matter of discussion if someone decided to raise an AfD.

 * Hello, Kdmitry,
 * Frankly, I am not a bit surprised that "after many years of writing articles" (during which you've made a total of only 425 edits to the English Wikipedia), you didn't know the rules about copyright violations. You know them now so next time you won't get such an easy ride. When you create a new article, please make sure that it meets the Wikipedia criteria for inclusion or it will get deleted. If you're lucky, it will just get moved to draft. If you are so unfamiliar with the guidelines that you think IMDb is a reliable source, I recommend you don't remove tags on articles you've created without first checking with someone more experienced. This is why you should have used the AfC facility second time around and you are very lucky that the article wasn't deleted a second time. You are the only one who is confused about the order of events.
 * Our guidelines are frequently tightened up, so you need to edit more than once a year in order to keep up with them. My advice to you is not to go around thinking you are hard done by until you actually have some experience of creating acceptable articles. Deb (talk) 08:31, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Ruralscope moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Ruralscope, is not suitable 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.
