Formal Request/Notification

 * Please stop coming to us for permission as to whether or not you can post things involving religion and Pokémon in articles. I am going to repeat what I have been telling you all along; get sources or stop trying to get it in. If you have sources that support your side, be bold and add your idea to the article; if you do not have sources, leave it alone.
 * Also, do not make absurd claims like "Pokémon doesn't mention any religion in the anime (especially Christianity)." Especially Christianity? If no religions are mentioned how can one be especially not mentioned?
 * Every time from now on you add something that doesn't have a source, is completely absurd, or both, I will give you a warning. Due to the one I gave you before, you only have two times to get it wrong before you are blocked. The answer to all of your questions lies in Wikipedia policy. Read through all of the welcome you have received (again), and check the see also sections on their pages for more reading. I am not trying to be a jerk, but you have worn out your welcome. I have assumed good faith as policy dictates way longer than I should have, and way longer than I was required to. This is in spite of the fact that I never felt you were doing this in good faith. Now, you only have two times to get it wrong before you get blocked, and all of your already answered questions to me will be ignored. You have been notified. --  T  H  L  21:37, 4 November 2006 (UTC)


 * It wasn't your response on the PCP talk page; it was the length of time this whole thing took. You can understand why I think you have just been messing with us, seeing as how absurd this whole thing sounds. I was trying to put an end to this thing once again, and I hope I have succeeded. --  T H  L  22:39, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

The definition of absurd. --  T H  L  02:01, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

The PCP doesn't decide what does and doesn't need sources; Wikipedia decides, and it says everything must be sourced. You would have seen that if you had taken my advice and read over your welcome again. Now, I said it was absurd because if everything isn't mentioned, how can something be especially not mentioned. That doesn't make any sense at all, at all. The fact that the section is titled Christianity emphasizes your point enough. The reason your other points were not removed is because other sources on the page confirmed them. In other words, your points were sourced. Something else you should know about me; I do not have a sense of humor; never have, never will. --  T H  L  02:01, 5 November 2006 (UTC)


 * That guy is a moron. There are so many Sabrinas, which one were you talking about?


 * The gym leader in Kanto. LinkinPark 04:34, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, the psychopath who turned people into dolls and refused to grant them the sweet release of death; I can see how you would compare me to her. Anyway, "When asked by the Judge were he lives, Hovind replied 'I live in the church of Jesus Christ, which is located all over the world. I have no residence.'" Wow, I must admit that one made me laugh. My God! --  T H  L  04:38, 5 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I didn't mean to say that you were a psychopath, but in the anime, Sabrina hasn't laughed in years before she bursted out laughing when Haunter made faces at her. I thought you would understand the reference to that event when I mentioned Sabrina. LinkinPark 04:48, 5 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I do have a sense of humor; I was just trying to make you uncomfortable by mentioning her psychopathic nature. Yes, I get what you are saying, I was thinking of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch at first. Anyway, that guy is a moron. A giant ice meteor, oooooooooooookay. How the hell did he get a PhD, even from a non-notable Christian college? That guy needs to be put down with a .45 or something, seriously. --  T H  L  04:54, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Alan Guth edits
Hey LinkinPark! I see that you have made lots of productive edits to Wikipedia. However, I think that your recent edits to the Alan Guth article were a bit silly, as I'm sure you know. Information about Guth's office probably doesn't belong in an encyclopedia. See Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. You might also be more careful adding external links, in terms of being very selective about which links are included and also formatting in the External Links section. See Wikipedia is not a web directory. Thanks for all your good work so far, and keep it up!  D a v e R u n g e r (t)⁄(c) 08:07, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi LinkinPark, I notice you are still trying to claim Alan Guth as an atheist, despite having no explicit source for the claim. Nice video link to his lectures, though. I really enjoyed them! --Michael C. Price talk 10:18, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Christian aheist
Hi! I am probably a Christian atheist in the same sense as she was. Calling it an "atheist" in some context is of course fine. "American Christians" is not really true, especially because I am not really American. ;-) --Lumidek 23:45, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Iqandglobalinequality.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Iqandglobalinequality.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 06:07, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion
A tag has been placed on Daigo Umehara, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add  on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Tdmg 04:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Re-creating deleted content
Please do not re-create the Daigo Umehara article. This topic was deleted per discussion at AfD, and should not be re-created. The article as written also qualifies for speedy deletion as an A7 (nn-bio). Please note that repeatedly re-creating a deleted article against consensus is considered disruptive and can lead to being blocked. Thank you.

Fair use disputed for Image:Image:Iqandglobalinequality.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Image:Iqandglobalinequality.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

 * The wikipedia article on ritonavir states that is the mechanism of the drug. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LinkinPark (talk • contribs)

Pancreatic cancer
You removed some information from pancreatic cancer without an edit summary. Given that both bits you deleted were supported by references, I could not explain why you deleted them. I have therefore reverted the deletion, and added a better reference for the statements on genetic predisposition to pancreatic cancer.

I note that on cholesterylester transfer protein, you use bare URLs to refer to news articles and medical journal papers. Could I ask you to provide references in the accepted reference format, with is cite journal for journal articles and cite news for news articles? This makes things much easier for readers, and on the CETP page follows the pattern that I started when I first wrote the page.

For journal articles there is David Iberri's template filler. Simply type the Pubmed Identifier into the box, and the tool will fill a standard template with citation data. The site happens to be down at the moment, but it is normally a very useful way of generating references. JFW | T@lk  08:47, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Okay, seriously, stop putting in that Marxist stuff. It's original research at best and utter nonsense at worst. JuJube (talk) 04:12, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

File source problem with File:600px-PEACE-Seal.png
Thanks for uploading File:600px-PEACE-Seal.png. 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 04:56, 18 September 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shubinator (talk) 04:56, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:600px-PEACE-Seal.png
Thanks for uploading File:600px-PEACE-Seal.png 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 uploaded by following this link. 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. Shubinator (talk) 02:29, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Hitler
Please refrain from making edits like the one you made to Adolf Hitler. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a place to wish people happy birthday. In fact, that can even be considered vandalism. Please do not make edits to articles unless they are of encyclopedic content. Thanks, WildFan48 (talk) 14:51, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Derek Lowe (chemist)


A tag has been placed on Derek Lowe (chemist), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of Derek Lowe (chemist) and leave a note on |the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Akerans (talk) 18:50, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Derek Lowe (chemist)
A tag has been placed on Derek Lowe (chemist) 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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 hangon 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)
Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization consisting of over 28,000 volunteers in more than 100 countries. The collaboration was formed to organize medical scholarship in a systematic way in the interests of evidence-based research: the group conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.

Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account. Thank you Cochrane!

If you are stil active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jonathan Wells (intelligent design advocate), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Unificationist (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

A tag has been placed on 2014 Ukrainian coup, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate,.

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 removed without delay.
