User talk:Rbcwa

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have.  You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox.  When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines.  First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette.  Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame)  04:32, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

D.C. Heath
I was writing an article on my favorite NJ writer Gerald Tomlinson who died a few months ago, I called his widow for a picture to put in the article. Thats my favorite part of researching, calling people and interviewing them. I had a list of publishing companies he worked for and made it my task to write a stub for each one. When I was done, someone marked D.C. Heath for deletion within 5 minutes. So, I did an exhaustive search of every permutation of the name to find links within Wikipedia. Your was the only biography of someone to actually work there. Its nice when you find a connection like that. Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 00:37, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. That's an interesting story about Gerald Tomlinson. Aloha, Rbcwa 00:53, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Insider trading
Sorry, didn't mean to accuse you of spamming, but that page has been getting a lot of it from companies marketing stuff. Instead, I put a link to the Form 4s and Form 5s on the SEC's webpage, which has all the formal disclosures of trading by insiders. Also, as you know, the insider trading page is really focused on illegal insider trading: noting insider trade disclosures doesn't really illuminate the issue.

Speedy deletion nomination of International businesspeople
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. 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), 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. —Largo Plazo (talk) 17:09, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

US Cyber
Hey, thanks for your input on the US Cyber Command article. I've reviewed your blog, very informative. I want to thank you for that. It gathers together a lot of information I didn't have before. I had no idea Alexander was up for promotion. I have been able to add a significant amount of information to the article. Sephiroth storm (talk) 01:05, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi Rbwca

I have proposed that Category:International businesspeople, which you created, should be deleted.

Your comments welcome in the discussion at Categories for discussion/Log/2010 January 1. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:34, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

You might want to keep an eye out here:, could have some word about CyberCom. Sephiroth storm (talk) 00:28, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM)/9th Army Signal Command
Hey, Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM)/9th Army Signal Command probably should be looked at. Its a possible WP:Copyvio article. I wanted to warn you before I tagged it. If you need some help fixing it, let me know. Sephiroth storm (talk) 06:13, 12 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Which part? I adopted some of the article from the 972nd Signal Battalion article.  I wrote some of it.  I adopted a couple of NETCOM documents for the rest which is public domain.  The command insignia came off the now defunct netcom web site.  Rbcwa (talk) 14:30, 12 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Just looking at the history, a lot of it looks like it was taken directly from a website, not saying it was, just it looks that way. Sephiroth storm (talk) 16:46, 12 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Most of it came from the old NETCOM web site, adopted by me to some degree. Government works are public domain.  I also cite the web site as a reference.  I'll take a look at the WP:Copyvio  article and look for the non-compliant parts.  I probably won't have time till the weekend though. Rbcwa (talk) 05:19, 13 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmm, you are correct about the public domain part... I still think it sounds a little too copy and paste, personally, I would include less of the history, but I don't think much other information is publicly available on the command. Sephiroth storm (talk) 05:38, 13 January 2010 (UTC)


 * The history part could stand some aggressive summarization. Perhaps I can trim it down and rewrite it at the same time. Rbcwa (talk) 06:05, 13 January 2010 (UTC)


 * OK, I cut back and rewrote the history some. I think more could be trimmed, a task for later.  Rbcwa (talk) 02:24, 17 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Looks better. Sephiroth storm (talk) 03:51, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Asc_dui.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Asc_dui.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Chris G Bot (talk) 00:18, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:2010-05-14-USCYBERCOM Logo.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:2010-05-14-USCYBERCOM Logo.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, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:52, 23 August 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:52, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:EVNautilus.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:EVNautilus.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 00:02, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

File:IsaacNCarleton.jpg missing description details
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as: is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.
 * File:IsaacNCarleton.jpg

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

Speedy deletion nomination of Peavey Delta Blues 210
Hello Rbcwa,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Peavey Delta Blues 210 for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. TRL (talk) 03:01, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Moved to userspace
Hiya! I moved the article for the guitar amplifier to User:Rbcwa/Peavey Delta Blues 210. The article did have some issues with it, but I figured that there's no harm in you working on it in your userspace for right now. The big, big issue that I saw above anything else is that it didn't have anything to show why this specific type of amplifier has any notability outside of the company. You need coverage in sources that are independent of the subject and are from reliable sources. The YouTube link doesn't seem to be by anyone that Wikipedia would consider to be a reliable source, unfortunately. In any case, I figured I'd let you have a chance to work on it some more in your userspace. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   05:07, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Early Wright (Disc jockey)
Hello Rbcwa,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Early Wright (Disc jockey) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

File permission problem with File:EV Nautilus.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:EV Nautilus.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org, 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 take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File 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 created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 16:17, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Rbcwa, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Mississippi Military Department has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Copyrights. You may also want to review Copy-paste.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 17:42, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

Ways to improve Lisp (book)
Hello, Rbcwa,

Thank you for creating Lisp (book).

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

"There's no doubt that the book exists and the authors are notable; the question is whether there's independent notability of the book. Several of the references are from the books themselves (each of the 3 editions), and the other 2 references seems to support the existence of the book, but little else. Perhaps using these to draw out what was special or unique about the book might be helpful; or, even better, criticism. Look also for reliable sources which have the book as its primary focus."

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with. Remember to sign your reply with. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
