Dubious image uploads
You have uploaded a number of images with the claim that they are "self-made" however this does not appear to be true. A specific example of this is : Image:Chinese Dongfeng Missile railway transport.jpg which appears to be copied from SinoDefence here: http://www.sinodefence.com/strategic/missile/images/df25_03large.jpg

I would ask you now to review all of your image uploads and remove the "self-made" claim from any that you did not photograph. By mislabeling such images, you cause significant damage to the project, and may bring liability for copyright infringement on your own head.

Please tag any images you have uploaded in error with db-author and they will be deleted. Megapixie (talk) 04:36, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * As far as I can tell - you didn't take the images in question. If you did - please upload a small portion of either image at a higher resolution, so that it is possible to verify your claim. If you really did take the photos then that shouldn't be a problem. But the probability is that you just ripped them off sinodefence or some random Chinese forum. If you continue to make these claims without providing some substantiation I will be push for getting both your account and IP address blocked from this site and commons.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Type 092 Launch Ceremony y1981.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Type 092 Launch Ceremony y1981.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://blog-imgs-31-origin.fc2.com/m/u/d/mudainodqnment/viploader921664.jpg. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites 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 modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines 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 "Click here to 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. 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.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Otherjoke. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Otherjoke~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:58, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
