The Wind's Twelve Quarters
It might have been a small edit to change "forward" to the correct "foreword" but I'm a librarian (Ursula K. Le Guin fan) who appreciates such attention to detail. Have a Barnstar!

Russian word "креатура"

Stellar association‎
I took the liberty of reverting your revision of the "Stellar association‎" redirect. The topic of stellar associations (or associations of stars) is discussed at Stellar kinematics. The Association (astronomy) topic discusses a quite different topic. Sorry.&mdash;RJH (talk) 19:40, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Just look at this article: Association (astronomy). It is linked now even 2 times to Stellar kinematics article. Isn't that enough? Thx for informing. Soshial (talk) 23:13, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Riba.ogg


A tag has been placed on File:Riba.ogg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

''This file is not supported on Wikipedia, suggesting deletion per not working when attempted to be played. Notice is also on page.''

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria 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.  JoeGazz  ▲ 18:54, 20 March 2011 (UTC)


 * You may use a freeware program, like Audacity, to convert your WAV files into the OGG format that is supported by Wikimedia and reupload this file, should you desire. –  Ker αun oςc op ia◁ galaxies  19:19, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Dmitry Alimov.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Dmitry Alimov.jpg. 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 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 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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 20:34, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

eBook format - DRM Free / Support
Hi - I reverted your change, because 'DRM Support' appears to be more appropriate: ePub books 'support' DRM, but do not have to be DRM'ed (there are people who supply non-DRM ePubs for example) SO - if we changed the column to be DRM free then ePub would have to have to have an entry of 'Sometimes'. Likewise Kindle and, I suspect, all other formats that are sometimes supplied DRM free. (So, for eg, check if Baen supply that format). Thanks, Jtowler (talk) 16:56, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of German exonyms for places in Latvia, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Abrene and Sauka. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
