Image Tagging Image:Eirini4.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Eirini4.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:Shaya&Nansy.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Shaya&Nansy.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you. -- Carnildo 05:23, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Go read the Macedonian disambiguation page before you remove Greek Macedonians from the Macedonian categories. Cheers.--Theathenae 17:49, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Greek singers or Macedonian singers

 * Be careful about the WP:3RR. I have answered your question and there is no need to start an edit war. I will revert in this case. If this matter persists, please take it to Meditation or Request for Comment since it is more a political matter. Dr Debug (Talk) 20:13, 7 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, he beat me to it. In general, you are right. The same principle applies to Cyprus; Cypriot people should be tagged as Cypriots, not as Greeks or Turks. The categories are devided by citizenship, not by ethnicity. BTW, you user page will look nicer if you change "Babel-9" to "Babel-2". The number refers to the number of languages listed. Best regards, and welcome to Wikipedia. --Valentinian 20:43, 7 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Please stop removing "Macedonian" from all the Greek artists, as you have been doing. There are Slav Macedonians and Greek Macedonians, but the category "Macedonians" clearly refers to both. Your position is as absurd as someone saying that the Pope is not Christian because he is Catholic. Αίσχος. Πως μπορείς να δικαιολογήσεις την συμπεριφορά σου; Sysin 23:08, 7 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Λες ότι η μητρική σου γλώσσα είναι τα ελληνικά, αλλά γράφεις το 'η' σαν 'ει' και λέξεις όπως "σιφονο" και "κατεγορια". Σας δίνει το ελληνικό κράτος άδειες παραμονής, και αντί να λέτε ευχαριστώ, το παίζετε πέμπτη φάλαγγα. Και πάλι: Αίσχος. Mihalis 05:58, 9 February 2006 (UTC)


 * OK, I take it back. You should not state that Greek is your native tongue when, in fact, you can't spell the word 'η'; it's as if an english speaker can't spell the word 'the'. It makes it appear that you are trying to deceive someone - and that's the reason for my harsh comments. I also grew up in the U.S., and I don't pretend to be a 'native' speaker of Greek. (and I also have to say, as a native speaker of brouklika, that you text did not appear Greek-American to me; I would have noticed. but I digress...)


 * That was not meant to "trick" or "fool" anyone but to show people the languages which I understand fluently. I'm still new on the site and still learning the rules and my way around here.  Which is why I have my user page listed as "Under Construction".  If you notice on my talk page Valentinian also corrected me on what "Babel-#" means. As for my spelling mistakes, like I said I speak, understand and read Greek fluently but have a hard time writting it especially when my computer does not have Greek characters.  Converting Latin letters into Greek is not as easy. ~Mallaccaos, 10 February 2006


 * If you are so concerned about the proper usage of categories, you should have done something about the name of the categories first. They are named "Macedonian singers", "Macedonian artists", etc, not "Singers from the RoM". Their name implies that they include all Macedonians. If their definition is to be limited to the country, their name should reflect that. sys &lt; in 05:59, 10 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I wasn't aware that I could change the categories, I thought adding/changing sub-categories are done by admins? Am I wrong about this?  BTW, I'm asking a question not being "sarcastic". Like I said numerious times before, the way the categories are set up now, by putting Greek singers under categories where it specifically says By nationalities implies those singers are from FyRoM.  I've asked you numerious times what can be done to change this, threw some ideas out there that Valentinian has suggested but have not yet gotten an answer back or any ideas.  Instead all I get are correction my spelling mistakes.  ~Mallaccaos, 10 February 2006


 * You most certainly can. In this case, there are not a lot of entries in these categories, so it is easy to change them manually without the use of an automated process. If you want, go ahead and I'll support you. The reason that this was not needed right now was that the content of the categories (artists from the entire Macedonian region) accurately reflected their title. sys &lt; in 17:57, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Your revert of my edits involved a number of changes from good to bad English and from correct Wikipedia style to incorrect. Please don't revert wholesale like this. Note also that lists of magazine covers, etc., have been discussed on other articles, and the consensus is that they're inappropriate. "Vital statistic", aside from being objectionable to many people, are inappropriate for an encyclop&aelig;dia (aside from anything else, they're changeable overnight). With regard to categories, parent categories aren't give (thus Category:Greek people is the parent of Category:Greek models, so only the latter should be used). Fair-use images shouldn't be overdone; one is enough, especially on a short article like this one; more than one isn't fair use.

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this: The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature. When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 09:05, 11 February 2006 (UTC)


 * To create a category you can either go to a similar category and modify the address in the address box of your browser, or place a link with the desired name (e.g., Category:Greek deep-dea divers on a page (perhaps the sandbox; in this case, use the one in my message above), and then click on the link. You can then create the category just like any article, adding the parent categories in the way you normally add categories to articles.  When naming a category, it's best to look at how other categories of the same type are named.  For example, you wouldn't want to create a category called Category:Deep-sea divers from Greece). --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 17:29, 13 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, I shoudl have said: it's a good idea to look at similar categories to see what other parent categories might be suitable. For example, Category:Models by nationality. --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 17:46, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Request for edit summary
Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 0% for major edits and 0% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 1 minor edits outside the Wikipedia, User, Image, and all Talk namespaces.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear inpolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 03:28, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Categories
Gia su, Mallaccao,

Welcome to Wikipedia. I notice that you've been very busy in categorising Greek people lately and have been setting up new categories indicating where people are from. I think this is a bit premature as there are many Greek categories out there which are completely underpopulated. In addition, this is the English-language Wikipedia and terms like Attiki, Kritiki and Macedon mean nothing to 99.9 percent of the people using it. I suggest you talk to other Greek users of Wikipedia before rushing to create new categories. A good place to announce your intentions would be the Greek Wikipedians' notice board.--Damac 14:57, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Characters of The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants
Hi, generally characters in fictional works don't get their own articles. In Notability (fiction), "Major characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be covered within the article on that work of fiction. If the article on the work itself becomes long, then giving major characters an article of their own is good practice." As it stands now, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants could use some expansion. Perhaps the two articles for the characters could be merged? --Christopherlin 04:19, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Herbert von Karajan
Hi Mallaccaos. Thanks for investigating the issue. I've restored the section in rewritten form with the Kozani version. It is perhaps not an ideal source, but at least we now have a reference. If somebody finds a really good source saying otherwise, the article can always be updated. Regards Valentinian (talk) 20:16, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

(Image:Anastasia Perraki1.jpg)
Hello, Why have you listed the Image:Anastasia Perraki1.jpg for for deletion? Regards. ~Mallaccaos, 17 May 2006


 * Hi, Mallaccaos. This image is a magazine cover, and as such, it can only be used in an article aboutthe magazine itself. The current use of this image illustrating the Anastasia Perraki article is not acceptable. It's not fair use.
 * I'm sure there should be some free pictures available for using in this article. Our role as good Wikipedians is to find them. Regards, --Abu Badali 22:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, Abu badali. I've read the discussion over at the Template_talk:Magazinecover and from what I gather there is no clear and conlusive restrictions reached that the magazine covers, in this case at the Image:Anastasia Perraki1.jpg, can not be used. Plus it mentioned the magazine in the Anastasia Perraki article since she worked as a model for it. and the modeling agency she works for, from where the picture comes from is hyper-linked on the image page. Regards. ~Mallaccaos, 17 May 2006


 * Mallaccaos, I'm affraid I don't agree with you. In Template_talk:Magazinecover, there were some objections, but all were refurted based on already existing Wikipedia policies.
 * By the way, mentioning the magazine just for justifying the fair use claim is no good.
 * Please note that all such images can bring to Wikipedia is trouble. See the Talk:Halle Berry aticle for a case where the persistence against the misuse of fair use images made some users to come up with a completly free image of these actress. Regards, --Abu Badali 22:45, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Abu badali, I've read the Talk:Halle Berry aticle as well as the Template_talk:Magazinecover and Template:Magazinecover. I do not see anything which places the Image:Anastasia Perraki1.jpg on grounds for deletion. I've read the Template:Magazinecover template rules. Were are these specific Wikipedia policies in which the objections from the Template_talk:Magazinecover have all been refurted and resolved with images being absolutely deleted? By the way, the magazine is not mentioned in the article just to justify the fair use claim policies. Its mention was in the article from day one, before I even picked which picture to up load for the article, because it talks about the modeling jobs she has had. I didn't even realize I was following Wikipedia rules when I did it since I just now noticed that such a rule for magazine covers exist. Regard. ~Mallaccaos, 17 May 2006
 * To make a long history short...
 * The image is now tagged Promotional, which is cleary a mistake. It is a Magazinecover.
 * According to the text on Template:Magazinecover (that you have read), magazine covers can only be used to illustrate the publication of the issue of the magazine in question, which is not the case here.
 * Orphaned fair use images are to be deleted (see orfud.
 * Someone even tried to change] the Magazinecover template for allowing this kind of use. But his change was promptly reverted as it was against the item #7 on WP:Fair_use.
 * Any other problem, just let me know. Best regards, --Abu Badali 00:45, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Manto Mavrogenous images
Hi Malloaccaos, thanks for uploading Image:Manto Mavrogenous2.jpg and Image:Manto mavrogenous.jpg. However, I think you might run into copyright problems with the "bookcover" license tag you have chosen. First, the pictures don't really look like book covers, second you didn't name the book, and third, as I understand it, the "bookcover" fair-use rationale works only for the use of a picture to illustrate an article about the book. - However, I think there may be a legitimate way out: There's another license tag that says that photographs of paintings are "public domain" if the original painter has been dead for so many years (70 or 100), if I remember correctly. That's probably applicable, could you check please? Thanks, Lukas (T. 09:02, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for reacting so quickly. Actually, I've made another correction (hopefully), I dug out the actual tag I was thinking of: {PD-art}, which seems more applicable.

 * Another one: Your new Wonderwoman pictures can certainly not be tagged {PD-art}. That's only for works whose creators died more than a hundred years ago! I don't know what exactly is more appropriate here, probably some variant of "fair use", as long as you use them only to illustrate the articles about these particular figures. I'd strongly recommend you read up on the relevant policies before uploading any other pictures. Take care, Lukas (T. 09:37, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Greek Sweets of the Spoon
this page has parts that are a direct copy-paste of here and as such are a violation of copyright... Please see here on how to fix the problem. Also on the talk page I left you a note as to WP:NOT... &larr; ΣcoPhreek  contribs talk &rarr; 06:06, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Moved from Talk page of article

WP:NOT *8 Instruction manuals - while Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instruction - advice ( legal, medical, or otherwise), suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes. Wikibooks is a Wikipedia sister-project which is better suited for such things. Note that this does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia. If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at Wikihow.
 * Not that you didn't work hard but this is not an appropriate article for the above listed reason.... &larr; ΣcoPhreek  contribs talk &rarr; 05:39, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
 * It would have been much appreciated if peoples articles are not deleted before given the editor of the article to make corrections, or chances on issues raised within articles before hand. ~Mallaccaos, 7 June 2006
 * While I do understand your frustration, the article violated several policies of wikipedia (noted above), If you had taken the copyrighted material out of it and the "how-to" section you would have been left with an empty article. Since that is what there currently is, you can start over with a clean slate. Make sure to rewrite information you find on the web into your own words, avoid plagerism, verify the availability of your images (don't just stick a GFDL tag on an image you find), and I'm sure you'll have a great article. &larr; ΣcoPhreek  contribs talk &rarr; 15:47, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Evelina Papantoniou4.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below).

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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.

Image copyright problem with Image:Tatiana Papamoschou.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Tatiana Papamoschou.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu Badali 12:38, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Elena Asimakopoulou.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Greek Sweets of the Spoonbook.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Greek Sweets of the Spoonbook.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Unspecified source for Image:Eva Kaili.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Eva Kaili.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Ancient greek pomegranate pins.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ancient greek pomegranate pins.jpg.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Aksioupoli3.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Aksioupoli3.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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.

File source problem with File:Julia Alexandratou 6.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Julia Alexandratou 6.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, 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.

Proposed deletion of Despina Caldis


The article Despina Caldis has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The subject of the article does not meet any of the notability criteria as outlined at WP:ENT, nor has she been the subject of any independent coverage that I could find while searching for references and therefore fails general notability as well.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

AfD nomination of Maria Athanasiadou
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Maria Athanasiadou. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Maria Athanasiadou. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:12, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Animus (American ensemble)


A tag has been placed on Animus (American ensemble), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate,. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. VQuakr (talk) 08:20, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Vanessa Kapatelis SilverswanII.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Vanessa Kapatelis SilverswanII.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:15, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
