Unspecified source for Image:Samat Smakov.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Samat Smakov.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 19:54, 29 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Genisock2 19:54, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Tnx. I took this image from this portal - www.lyakhov.kz/football I don't think that Mr. Lyakhov (site's creator) against. And also I think that this image is public, not commercial Uvik 0:57, 19 June 2007 (CET)

Position by round 2011-12 Premier League
For me is a nonsense the PbR for Premier League because there isn't the matchdays like other league and so for me it is a random table. Stigni (talk) 09:36, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

This table has been removed twice today. Before adding it again I would suggest that you read the appropriate section in the talk page.--Spudgfsh (talk) 19:20, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Kazakhstani
Hi, I am writing regarding your recent move. As I've learned there are dozens of articles starting with Kazakhstani - including an article Kazakhstani. So I am not convinced that the word does not exist.--Twofortnights (talk) 11:45, 14 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, there are many articles but it is still a wrong word. There is a word describing the population - Kazakh. "stan" means land. It's like to say "Englandman" instead of "Englishman". Uvik (talk)

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 Uvik. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Uvik~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 03:29, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

×== Kazakhstani category moves ==

Hi. Can you explain why you are mass moving these without discussion? The page for Kazakhstan clearly shows the demonym to be Kazakhstani. Thanks.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 13:43, 31 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello! Believe me, there is no such word as "Kazakhstani". The word Kazakh is correct. It's the same stuff as in Russia there are two words: "Russian" and "Rossiyanin" - it is polythonym, and used only inside the country. Uvik (talk) 13:51, 31 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reply. I think something of this nature needs to go through the requested move process, and possibly an WP:RFC too. I'll flag it up at WP:ANI for further input and alert you about it.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 13:58, 31 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the understanding and cooperation. The truth is on my side, I'm honest person Uvik (talk) 14:00, 31 July 2015 (UTC)


 * No problem. My thread is here. Thanks again.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 14:02, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Election articles
Hello Uvik. I have reverted all your moves of the election articles for two reasons. Firstly, some of your moves were WP:Cut and paste moves, which are not allowed (if you cannot move an article using the move tag, you must use the WP:RM process). Secondly, the titles you created were contrary to the relevant naming guideline, WP:NC-GAL, which states that a demonym must be used. If you disagree with the use of Kazakhstani, then you have to use Kazakh instead.

I see that several other editors hve concerns about your approach to this, so I suggest you start a centralised discussion on the appropriate demonym rather than make unilateral piecemeal moves. Cheers, Number   5  7  14:18, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
 * And in the meanwhile we return to the pre-move situation. If there is consensus for the move (which I doubt very much), everything will be moved properly according to the consensus.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:21, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Do not change Kazakhstani to Kazakh
Kazakhstani and Kazakh have two totally different meanings. And this is per our own article on Kazakhs. Kazakh is only for ethnicity where Kazakhstani is for all citizens of the country. Please don't change the words without consensus. I see you were reverted already on several articles. Fyunck(click) (talk) 03:53, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
