Hi, you added a tocommons tag to Image:Bahro-Cave-1.jpg. Please note that non-free images cannot be copied to wikimedia commons. I have removed the tag. Cheers! --Storkk (talk) 00:28, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Please note the Ubisoft license that "grants anyone the right to use such images for any purpose, including redistribution, derivative works and commercial use, provided the image is attributed to Ubisoft." so it's a standard attribution license and thus free. // Liftarn (talk)

To the opposers in my RfA
''NB. This pertains to User:Walton One's reconfirmation RfA. I replied on his talk, reconsidered my opinion, arrived at the same conclusion, and fleshed out my !vote on the RfA page --Storkk (talk) 12:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)''

I would like to apologise for my intemperate comments during the Melsaran affair. I accept that I should have expressed myself more civilly, and should have waited for the ArbCom to explain themselves rather than jumping to conclusions and condemning them. I can honestly say that I regret my reaction.

In my defence, I would like to reiterate that I did not use the admin tools in any way in relation to the Melsaran affair. I am completely aware that it would be a very bad idea to wheel-war with ArbCom, and I can honestly say that I would never do so.

For what it's worth, I genuinely don't dislike the ArbCom. I respect the fact that they have to make tough decisions, and I understand that sometimes these decisions must be made in secret. It is true that I have a natural aversion to authority and secrecy; this is part of my character. But in future I will do my best to treat the arbitrators with more respect and to assume good faith on their part.

I served this community for seven months as an administrator, with very little criticism. I believe that I can continue to help Wikipedia by serving as an administrator. I ask you to look at the beneficial contributions I've made to the encyclopedia; I believe that the good I can do outweighs the problems with my somewhat combative nature.

Please give me a second chance. WaltonOne 13:55, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Fair enough, and thank you for your civil response. If I pass (which still seems possible) I will do my best to address your concerns; if I don't pass, I will run again in a few months, and will hope for your support then. WaltonOne 13:02, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

AfDs for really old people
''NB. this concerns a large number of AfDs that BrownHairedGirl created for individual articles on some American supercentenarians.

Re: Image:Vista-file-manager.png
Hi, again, Gurch. I saw that you uploaded the above-linked image (and tagged it GFDL), from the source http://sa-ki.deviantart.com -- I may be blind, but i can't find it on sa-ki's gallery. I have found a number of Sa-ki's images that are licensed under a CC-xx-ND license, which is incompatible with our Free images. Could you please clarify where, exactly you got it from (i.e. the link to the image's individual page), and where we can see the license specific to this image? Thanks, Storkk (talk) 18:31, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I didn't get it from anywhere, I just uploaded it from Commons so that it could be protected locally, as it was widely used at the time. The image description page at the time I uploaded it was merely a copy of the image's description page on Commons at the time; I hold no responsibility for any subsequent edits to either description page. As the image is no longer widely used (the template on which it was employed now uses a different image), the page can be unprotected and it can be deleted – Gurch 18:46, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I didn't check the commons: I didn't see any indication that that was what you had done from the image page. It's still widely used here, I think because people subst'ed the template (or they are still using the old one, it's a possibility with the archive box template). It seems like the original uploader might be the artist who created it, so I'll ask that he confirms via OTRS. Thanks and sorry for the confusion. --Storkk (talk) 18:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Musings relative to some AfD discussions
Hi! I've had some thoughts recently, and I thought I'd share them with you in hope of the potential of your input. I've admired your administrative (in the usual sense, not only confined to adminship) contributions to Wikipedia for a long time, especially relating to ArbCom. I am not, nor have I ever been, a member or Wikinfo (though I don't discount the future possibility), but I've seen countless cases on WP:AfD and other fora of notable dissension, where the major issue at hand is the insurmountable problem of Original Research. It has recently struck me that in many of these cases, it might be feasible to defuse much of the tension with a user talk template similar to uw-nor1... in style, it would be different, and more welcoming (as opposed to the warning template that it is) and would include a link and an invitation message to wikinfo that states its acceptance of OR. I don't know if such a systematic method of diverting unwanted content from wikipedia to wikinfo would be welcomed here, but I think it might be... I also don't know of any policies or guidelines that would explicitly forbid it (i.e. a template that systematically links to an external and, in some views, competing, site).

A similar template might also be applied to systematic NPOV-violators, so long as their POV is "sympathetic" (this would be especially relevant for pseudoscience, etc. articles that are continually invaded by quacks (as I see it) but who would, because of the sympathetic-POV policy of wikinfo, not be violating policy (and infuriating NPOV sticklers) if they moved over into wikinfo's welcoming arms). I'd appreciate your thoughts on this fledgling idea. I anticipate an answer along the lines of "it'll be impossible", but the short time that it has taken me to write this will have paid off greatly if you think it might be possible, and if even only a few of the acerbic discussions might be avoided by a precipitous switch to wikinfo, where they might be welcomed as valued contributors. Thanks for your time! --Storkk (talk) 18:04, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * PS. If you would reply on my talk page, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Storkk (talk) 18:09, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * In many instances such content could be integrated into Wikinfo, but it is not my place to advance such a self-serving proposal. Fred Bauder (talk) 01:09, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Template:Non-free use rationale
''N.B. This discussion pertains to errors that the template was having in parsing files with "!" in their name. I attempted to enlist the help of someone with better template experience, more is found on the template's talk page. --Storkk (talk) 14:18, 17 July 2008 (UTC)''

Template:idw-pui
Hey, Storkk - was there a reason you removed the autosignature from the template? I've restored it for now. Videmus Omnia Talk  13:46, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi, I removed the auto-sign, because most templates don't have one (see all the uw templates, for example, or the vast majority of the idw templates). Usage of most talk templates that I have seen, requires signing separately. This inconsistency caused me to sign twice when I used this template, so I changed it for consistency with the others... Cheers, Storkk (talk) 13:51, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the reply - the image deletion user warnings are also used by some monobook javascripts (most notably User:Howcheng/quickimgdelete.js) - the removal was causing the user warnings to not be signed. I didn't realize it until SineBot left a nastygram on my talk page. Videmus Omnia Talk  13:55, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * That it's included in some userspace javascripts is a problem, as I really think it should be consistent with the other warning templates, and javascript tools cannot be edited except by the individual users. I don't yet have a good idea how to solve this. --Storkk (talk) 14:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Your edit to Charge of the Light Brigade
"Sic" doesn't necessarily mean that something was spelled wrongly, just that it is as written in the original and not a transcription error. I suppose I should have made it a link, as here, so that this was more obvious. I'm now standing back waiting for countless helpful corrections into the modern spelling. May I revert, including the internal link, or even using the less common variant "thus"? --Old Moonraker (talk) 08:31, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Your rollback request
Hello Storkk, I've granted your account rollback in accordance with your request. Please remember to use rollback to revert edits that you are absolutely sure are vandalism: if in doubt, don't use rollback to revert. In addition, misuse of the rollback feature, either by reverting good-faith edits or revert-warring, can and will lead to its removal. For more information, see New admin school/Rollback. Good luck.

Having the page published vs. deletion and vs. redirection
Hi Storkk (talk), obviously having a redirect is better than having the page deleted, but I would like to run for the page being published. In My Humble Opinion this David Carrett was a key master planner in the 1969 italian Piazza Fontana bombings for Nato interests in the Cold War exactly like Abu Hafiza is nowadays for Al Qaeda. As I wrote to RGTraynor in "David Carrett discussion page" (...) by the way, don't you think that Abu Hafiza should go through AfD too then? If you google  "Abu Hafiza" psychiatrist  you will find *ONLY* 293 results. That's far less than the 905 results that you find googling with the italian keywords   "David Carrett" "Strage di Piazza Fontana"  . (...) Thanks for your attention. Absolutely Trustworthy (talk) 20:00, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The very simple way of solving this is for you to revert RGTRaynor. The discussion will then take place in the wider community once it undergoes AfD. In fact... hold on... i'm doing it now. Please continue all this discussion there. Thanks. --Storkk (talk) 09:25, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Hello, the permission given on Talk:Stephen Soldz is not enough to comply with Wikimedia policy.

Unspecified source for Image:Hadad.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hadad.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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 01:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? --MifterBot (Talk • Contribs • Owner) 01:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Licensing templates
Yea, they should be left soft. When people like Google index our site, they do not want to index the non-free content for legal reasons. So our devs have worked out that they can tell a page is non-free is it has the tag form. Since a lot of our older templates have extensive discussions surrounding then, Fairuse in for example, I made them soft-redirects. That prevents people from using them as an image license tag, but still provides a connection for people reading older discussions. Could you please go and undo your redirects? When all the tags were standardized, all images were moved over to the new names and all the image upload tools were changed as well, so no pages should be transcluding the old tag names, unless people are adding them manually and noticing the softredirect. Thanks  MBisanz  talk 10:53, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem, I should probably go back and leave some sort of documentation with the soft redirects, since your not the first person to have this question, I'll try to get to it tonight.  MBisanz  talk 10:58, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Images
Hi. I don't know much about copyright rules here, so I hope you can help in fixing the problem. First, this depiction of Mulla Sadra is found throughout the internet, in various modified versions, and is featured on the covers of a few publications so I assume that it is an old one, possibly dating from his time, or from a few decades later, and thus in the public domain according to Iranian copyright laws, since it is almost certainly more than 30 years old. As for this picture, apparently, it belongs to Reuters and I believe that the tag I placed is convenient and allows the fair use of the photo. As for this photo of Jamil Sidqi al-Zahawi, is what taken more than 50 years ago, since the person depicted died more than 70 years ago, and is thus in the public domain according to Iraqi copyright law and I don't see why it is still under discussion.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Yule logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Yule logo.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) 10:28, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Please help to translate this pali-language sentence into English
Hello, Storkk. Sorry for interrupting you!

Since both of us don't know pali-language, I may need your help on translate this sentence.

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:46, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:47, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Original pieces of art, reinterpreting "real life" models
Hi Storkk, First big thanks to have informed me of the current discussion[] for all the pieces of art I created and gave (free licence) to Commons. Your French is 1000 times better than my poor English ! ;). Could-you please help me in some way to check if this problem is not a wrong point of wiew matter according to the fact that I made an artistic and original interpretation of real models ? Thanks again. Martino75 (talk) 13:06, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
