License tagging for Image:Bellsyscolors.GIF
Thanks for uploading Image:Bellsyscolors.GIF. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 20:05, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:GoldenBoyATT.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:GoldenBoyATT.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 13:54, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

MCI Group Holdings
Another editor has added the " " template to the article MCI Group Holdings, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Image tagging for Image:Brooks arthur.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Brooks arthur.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

Proposed deletion of Killer (game)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Killer (game), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Seems like original research, no references provided. Fails WP:NOTGUIDE policy.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. =Axlq 05:47, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Nice article
I came across your article on Arthur Raymond Brooks, and thought it well written. If you are unfamiliar with the referencing/citation process, I might be able to help you complete that. I do believe that with citations in place, this article would be accessed as B class.

Also, as the main contributor to List of World War I flying aces, I am trying to recruit writers for this subject. One of my objectives is to complete the breakout of aces by nationality into national lists. For instance, the Canadians have already been broken out by Trevor MacInnes.

Is your interest in the American aces? If so, I don't know of anyone working on them. You could have your own little bailiwick by default.

 * Thanks, George. As you can see by the date (16 June 2009) I don't make a habit of visiting on a regular basis.  I am quite the novice when it comes to writing articles so any help in improving my article would be appreciated.  I am a pilot as was my father-- who introduced me to Ray Brooks at a fraternal gathering of pilots in New Jersey in the 1980's.  I discovered during this meeting that he is a true American hero.  Subsequently,  I began collecting any information I ever came across about him.  I do not consider myself qualified to be the editor you seek; I thank you for the offer.  Regards:  Thor21.

How to verify copyright permission for article Section Manager
Hello, Thor21.

Thank you for your interest in donating material from http://www.k0rm.net/ to Wikipedia. Since we do not currently have a method in place to verify the identity of account holders at account creation, we must verify such donations through external processes. The article has been blanked to allow time for that verification to proceed.

The simplest way to verify is to place a release on that external website putting the material into public domain or co-licensing it under CC-BY-SA and GFDL, which permit modification and reuse, even commercially, as long as authorship credit is given. This release is irrevocable and must continue to be displayed, or the material may need to be removed. A statement such as the following would be sufficient: "The contents of this website (or page, if you are specifically releasing one section) are available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License 3.0 and the GNU Free Documentation License, unversioned with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts." If you decide to take this route, please put a link to that release on Talk:Section Manager so we can restore the contents.

Alternatively, you may choose to send an e-mail to the Wikimedia Foundation from an address associated with the original publication to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org] or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the CC-BY-SA and GFDL. There is a boilerplate release form at Declaration of consent for all enquiries which can be helpful. Please provide a clear link to the website in your e-mail and specify by name the articles on Wikipedia in which the material is being used. Once your e-mail is received and processed by a member of the Communications Committee, the article's contents will be restored if your release is legally sufficient. Please make a note that you've done this on Talk:Section Manager to help guard against premature deletion of the page. You can compose a note or very simply paste the following on the talk page, brackets and all:

If you decide you don't wish to release the material into public domain or under the terms of CC-BY-SA and GFDL, you are welcome to rewrite the text from scratch at [ this temporary page]. As long as the material is otherwise compliant with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, it will be used to replace the previous contents. Please leave a note at Talk:Section Manager saying you have done so.

If you are not familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, you may wish to review Starting an article or Your first article. If you are closely related to the subject matter, you may also want to read our conflict of interest guidelines to get an idea how best to proceed. It may be necessary once permission is verified to address other concerns in the text, if it is otherwise inconsistent with our policies and guidelines.

We apologize for the additional steps necessary, but as copyright is a matter of legal concern, we must ensure that we not only protect the rights of copyright holders, but also guard the Wikipedia project against inadvertent infringement.

The article will be revisited in about a week to see what additional steps have been taken or may be necessary. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to let me know at my talk page. We also have a help desk which is typically manned around the clock by volunteers.

Thank you. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:22, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page User:Ldanika/Magyar Televízió has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary.

KFLY (Radio Station)
This is an automated message from 173.45.72.122. I have performed a search with the contents of KFLY (Radio Station), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: KFLY. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. 173.45.72.122 (talk) 05:42, 15 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Please do not remove valid copyright notices as you did here without addressing the issue. As the bot explained, you cannot copy content from one page to another without providing attribution. To do otherwise is a violation of the copyright of our contributors. I have corrected this instance by moving the history to join the page, but in the future please be sure to use the page move function as described above. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:28, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Wikipedia. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.
