Question from Illanser (09:13, 16 August 2023)
Hello Vacant0!, I am a member of an Organization and I would like to ask you about creating a Wikipedia Article. So, how can an organisation creates Articles about their products and Company and have the pages semi-protected (If needed)? Do we need to come in contact with MediaWiki Foundation? Thanks in advance.

Yours Sincerely, Illanser --Illanser (talk) 09:13, 16 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello . As a member of an organisation, you cannot directly contribute to the article because of conflict of interest. We already have a guideline on things like that: Conflict of interest.
 * If you are creating a new article, notability of an organisation is determined by the Notability (organizations and companies) guideline. COI guideline states that you should use the Articles for creation process for creating articles. Articles are usually semi-protected when there is disruption or vandalism. You do not need to contact anyone as long as you read these two guidelines, the most important part is probably WP:COIEDIT. Vacant0 (talk) 10:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello @Vacant0! Thanks for your reply! But, I have one more question, is it acceptable if someone uses Wikipedia to get information, store it and then use it to create a Publicly -Free- Product? Illanser (talk) 12:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
 * All text on Wikipedia is licensed under the CC BY-SA 4.0 license so you will have to follow that license whenever using text from Wikipedia in other documents. Vacant0 (talk) 12:15, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
 * We have already investigate that, and we are aware of this page and its contents. The content (Wikipedia Articles) that we may gather, experiment, change or use will not be used -Mainly- for Documents but for, research. We generally planning to use these content for AI Research and as Datasets in order to train our AI Models. We have done some evaluations and it came to our attention that the content(the 'Articles') that Wikipedia has, is high-quality providing, some details, but not too many to overload or overflow our AI Models, thus resulting in a pleasing result, that can be used and safely released in public, with a high Accuracy Score. The content that Wikipedia provides is more than enough to safely start training our AI Models (As of now: Pre-Training Phase). We just want to know if we can Take Articles from the Wikipedia, Extract, and use the Publicly available information to Train our AI Models so we can have a high-quality result. Illanser (talk) 12:33, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I think that you'll get the correct answer if you ask the question at the Teahouse. From what I know, you should just stick with following what the license says. Vacant0 (talk) 12:41, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
 * We have found what we need Here. Thank you for your time. We really appreciate that. Hope to come in contact with you again in the near future. Have a nice day! Illanser (talk) 12:45, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

8th Session of the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Serbia
Hi, I just want to say, great article! I will try to review it in the coming days. I saw it when I nominated by own Yugoslav article. Great to see other contributors getting involved in fixing Yugoslav-related articles. There is so much information that is lacking... Especially for the later SKJ. But of course, from what I gather, you're a Serb and have more access to sources than I do. I have created some good articles, but others are waiting for inspiration, such as the Committee for the Preparation of the Democratic and Programmatic Renewal of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia and the Central Committee of the 13th Congress of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia.

Again, good article, I'll try to review it when I get time! — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheUzbek (talk • contribs) 16:11, 16 October 2023 (UTC)


 * , Thank you for the comments. I do agree that there is a lot of information lacking and missing, it is up to us to fix this. I mainly picked up that article because it looked really bad and the article was completely unsourced, despite its significance on the rise of Slobodan Milošević. Feel free to review it, if you want and when you get time. Good job on Presidency of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia (I'd review it but it I don't have enough time to review long articles). Vacant0 (talk) 18:59, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Građanskisavezsrbije.png
Thanks for uploading File:Građanskisavezsrbije.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Slobodan Cvetković photo upload from 16.10.2023. help needed <3
User Nika2023 and I have been asked by the Ministry of Economy to change the current minister's photo on Wikipedia. Since we are new and unsure about how all of this works, we are in desperate need of assistance from an experienced editor. It would be of great help if you could restore the photo that our colleague uploaded, or if you could explain to us what we need to do to make the change stay on the article. The photo was taken by the ministry's camera and at the minister's request for the purpose of changing the photo on Wiki. Any assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated. All the best. Prometej42 (talk) 08:29, 17 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello . A special permission is needed from the ministry in order for the image to stay on the Commons. Please follow these instructions Commons:Volunteer Response Team. Cheers, Vacant0 (talk) 08:34, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! I hope everything will be okay this time. Cheers! Prometej42 (talk) 09:44, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I do not think that you got it right. We need a VRT license from the ministry for the image to stay on Commons. Considering that you are not the author (copyright holder), you should follow the steps here: Volunteer Response Team. I would also recommend not editing Cvetković's article as you have conflict of interest with him, this is strongly discouraged. Please follow the steps and once a VRT license is obtained, I'll replace the current image with his official portrait. Vacant0 (talk) 18:08, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

Question from Secondobrothero (16:43, 27 October 2023)
On the subject of Socialism The Wiki entry has a confusion of references to Communism. Such that some will be confused that Communism is Socialism. That is not the case as the evolve from different Philosophers at different times. Socialism is the earlier evolving in France and Communism is the later evolving in the UK through Russian Emigres. I believe that all the references to Communist sections should be remove with only references where applicable.

Miroslav Ivanović
I know this is probably not your topic of expertise, but you write a hell of a lot about Serbian politics! I recently was able to scramble some sources to write an article about Miomir Grbović, the second to last leader of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia. I managed to do that thanks to a publishing house of the Soviet Central Committee, but I have had no similar luck with Miroslav Ivanović. There is no information on this man online - or at least searchable through Google. He has some mentions in the archives of Slobodna Dalmacija.

What am I asking for. First, do you know of any Serbian newspaper that has an online and free archive similar to Slobodna Dalmacija's? Or do you have any tips on any site where I can access Serbian newspaper articles for the period 1990-1991 online? TheUzbek (talk) 17:17, 30 November 2023 (UTC)


 * I'll take a look at this tomorrow. Vacant0 (talk) 19:02, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * This is the only source I was able to find about Ivanović: https://arhiva.glas-javnosti.rs/arhiva/2001/03/11/srpski/R01031002.shtml. Newspaper archives do not seem to go back to the 1990–1991 period. Vacant0 (talk) 21:38, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late reply! I've been busy in real life!
 * Yeah, that's the only source I can find online too! Its seems that information on him is only available on non-web news archives, which is pretty annoying! So how to solve this conundrum? TheUzbek (talk) 08:20, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I found a source! :)
 * I was able to locate the news archives of Borba. However, I cannot read Serbian and I cannot copy-paste it to Google Translate either. So I was wondering if you could help? If you press this link you'll be sent to the news archive. If you in the year field pick "1990" and in the date field pick "28.05" you will get the newspaper article. I have discerned that at least page 1 and page 3 mentions "Miroslav Ivanović" by name (if I have discerned correctly, there is even a photo of him on page 3).
 * Would you help me get some info? Is there any information on his birth year or year of joining the LCY? :) TheUzbek (talk) 11:35, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Page 1: The 14th extraordinary congress was held in the Save Centre, Belgrade on 28 May. It was decided that on 29 September there would be the Congress of Democratic and Programmatic Reform of SKJ. 989 delegates were present, 521 were absent at the 28 May congress. The congress did not last very long. Ivanović said that he wanted general elections by the end of 1990. In 1990, Ivanović was 35 years old, a lawyer, and the president of OK SK of Budva.
 * Page 3: Ivanović is mentioned as an attendee. That seems to be a picture of him, if the caption is correct. Vacant0 (talk) 20:05, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you, the search continues! :)
 * I feel like I'm getting a bit closer.
 * Question, do you know the largest newspaper of Serbia and Montenegro at the time (1990)? Must be a profile of him, somewhere! TheUzbek (talk) 16:41, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
 * In Serbia, you can look at Politika, Večernje novosti, Vreme... Vacant0 (talk) 21:38, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Aleksandar Vučić – Together We Can Do Everything logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Aleksandar Vučić – Together We Can Do Everything logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:43, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Question from Gedditor (16:20, 1 March 2024)
Hello, I translated an article from German to English, using the "Translate page" function to translate side-by-side. I got this error when trying to publish: "Automatic edit filters have identified problematic content in your translation. Filter hit: Content Translation Edits" --Gedditor (talk) 16:20, 1 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I published it as a draft. Draft:Franz_Coronini_von_Cronberg Also, you're still displayed as my mentor as of 1 March 2024. Is that a bug? Gedditor (talk) 16:29, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't see any problems with the article itself but you should add inline references to everything that is currently unsourced (everything inside the Infobox and the Life and Family sections). See WP:V. And yes, I'm no longer a mentor, but my guess is that you haven't gotten a new mentor yet and because of that I'm still assigned as your mentor. Vacant0 (talk) 13:52, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Question from 00101984hjw (05:07, 3 March 2024)
Hello, Vacant0! I recently created a new article by translating its original corresponding Korean article. However, I was able to move the draft into Wikipedia's mainspace without going through any Afc reviews. Did I unintentionally bypass Wikipedia's guidelines for article creation or are articles created through the translation tool considered exceptions? --00101984hjw (talk) 05:07, 3 March 2024 (UTC)


 * You did not bypass anything, AfC is optional but recommended for beginners. I assume that the article you translated is 19th-century peasant rebellions in Korea, right? If it is, you should add inline references to the parts of the article that are unsourced. Once you add the missing references, you can remove the maintenance template that is at the top of the article. Vacant0 (talk) 12:07, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted
Hi Vacant0, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! The Night Watch    (talk)   19:29, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:Logo of the Conservative Party of Norway.svg
Thanks for uploading File:Logo of the Conservative Party of Norway.svg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kys5 g talk! 14:43, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
