Orphaned non-free media (Image:YandexLogo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:YandexLogo.gif. 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) 05:09, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

NICE interface modification: We need more users!
Hello. I am one of the developers of the NICE tool and the related study's contact person. I hope you have been finding the modification helpful so far. We have been gathering users for a little over a month now, but we haven't gotten as many users as we had hoped. We'd appreciate it if you would share the NICE tool with any editors that might find it useful. --E poch F ail (talk 17:05, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Full version of NICE to be released
Thanks for helping me and my colleagues test the NICE interface modification. Depending on when you installed the tool, you were only presented with a specific subset of the features we have developed. We are ready to roll out the full feature set which, we expect, will make the gadget significantly more useful. Before we do that, we'd like you to answer a few questions about your activity in Wikipedia as it relates to undoing other's edits and what you thought of the NICE features you were shown.

The survey will ask for your Wikipedia username, but you can participate anonymously if you choose. To do so, send me an email with an address I can respond to and I will have the survey software respond with an anonymous token for you to continue. --E poch F ail (talk 17:49, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Google Knowledge Graph ID
Hi, can you tell me how to create a Google Knowledge Graph ID? for example this id (/g/11hymq14zl) was previously active but now it is not. create item for id, where and how to do it.--Elshad Iman (Elşad İman) (talk) 04:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * the easiest way is to get id from Google Knowledge panel. You can not create entries in Google Knowledge Graph directly. There are few patents like and  which explain some details of how Google collects data from Websites. To be short, there are "patterns for fact extraction" (with scores) from structured data or simple text, "human evaluator" (probably just scores to pessimize information from untruthworthy websites), algorithm for representing facts as a vector, and algorithm to calculate distance between these vectors. The latter one is used to delete duplicates as soon as 2 entities are near each other. That's what highly likely to happened with /g/11hymq14zl. Wikidata and Wikipedia among other websites work as a source for Google Knowledge Graph. Adding multiple Google Knowledge Graph IDs to the same Wikidata element reduces distance between MREID elements, which leads to removal one of them. Here are some recent examples:
 * I have added 2 MREIDs here: . The next day after this change Google deleted a duplicate.
 * At the same time I've created a new item about a namesake researcher . There was no Google Knowledge Graph entry by the time of Wikidata item creation. However, one week later Google collected enough facts about this namesake and published a new Google Knowledge Graph entry.
 * There is a third namesake (yet another Andrey Simonov). At this moment Google associated wrong photo with his MREID (discussed here). The theory is that adding facts to Wikidata will lead another facts move (because wrong photo just can't have high score). Google still did not index these new facts yet. --Lockal (talk) 20:28, 10 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the information, maybe you can find out how celebrities get the blue verified mark on instagram, maybe not? I did a lot of research on this issue, but it was not the right direction.--Elshad Iman (Elşad İman) (talk) 20:55, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * This is called account verification. --Lockal (talk) 11:18, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
