Re: Bust of Cristiano Ronaldo
Just FYI, I did submit a deletion review request, which was almost immediately close for being the wrong venue. Unsure of what else to do, I created this RfC if you care to comment there: Talk:Bust_of_Cristiano_Ronaldo.

Thanks! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:54, 15 May 2018 (UTC)


 * the admin may have been mistaken when closing the deletion review. His comment This is a content issue looks wrong – I think it is a notability issue. You could him to explain his reasons and advise on how to proceed. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:36, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I tried pinging them, but no response. Either way, the RfC is now ongoing, so we'll see how that turns out. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 00:56, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

Links to other language Wikipedias
Well, I'm sorry about that. I didn't know that there was such a convention, and I felt that a straightforward link looked much better. You can tell that it's an interwiki link because it appears in lighter type than a normal link - at least, it does in my browser. I would have thought that the interpolation of an abbreviation like "cy" would be confusing to most people, who would have no idea what it meant. Feel free to revert and I'll start a discussion on the MoS talk page. Deb (talk) 08:02, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

The license of the YouTube seemed fine to me, could you explain, please? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:10, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
 * although the YouTube page you linked says, in my view this is not sufficient evidence that the YouTube user had obtained a licence. This text could indicate how a licence would be obtained if someone needed one.


 * In addition to WP:ELNEVER, please see WP:YOUTUBE, WP:LINKVIO and External links/Perennial websites. Although none of these explicitly say so, in my view we should only link to a commercial recording if the website or account is clearly controlled by the record company, or a performer, or by a major reputable organisation. Neither the YouTube page you linked nor the YouTube user's about page indicate this.


 * You could ask about this at Copyright problems. Regards, Verbcatcher (talk) 16:13, 11 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for explaining. I only wanted to help readers to listen to an excellent recording, but trust that they'll find it without help. For me, it comes up on top, before our article, which is pretty unusual, - normally when I look for more sources on a topic the first thing google finds is my stub article ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:19, 11 June 2018 (UTC)


 * If it makes you feel any better, the first minute of this recording is available as a free sample through the Hyperion Records link in our article. Verbcatcher (talk) 16:45, 11 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Don't think my feelings matter ;) - look for "medical" on my talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:50, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your edit war.210.19.117.130 (talk) 11:17, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I am not edit warring, please see Edit warring. Please also see Dispute resolution, which I am trying to follow at Mary Hopkin. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:48, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * You are edit warring and it is aggressive, bullying and tiresome. Please desist. There is no reason to keep removing the TV section from this article. None at all. Please stop your harassment and bullying or you will be blocked from editing.27.131.59.42 (talk) 16:33, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks...
... for this. I found the closure comment unnecessary and inappropriate, but I don't really know what to say or do at this point. I have no idea how my behavior is related to a topic's notability. I'm glad you said something, but I am still very concerned about how the discussion/closure appears to others on the article's talk page. Very unfair, and I still think a notability discussion needs to be had. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:01, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * As far as the RFC closure is concerned we should wait for a reply on the editor's user talk page. If the response is unsatisfactory we could challenge the closure, see WP:CLOSECHALLENGE. If you think the remarks concerning you are grossly unacceptable then you could raise the issue at Administrators' noticeboard, but I don't think they amount to a personal attack and I suggest giving yourself an opportunity for seconds thoughts before taking any action. Verbcatcher (talk) 23:17, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * No, no, definitely not an attack. I'm not grossly offended, I just don't think my actions in any way justify leaving the topic alone, or denying a notability assessment. I'm happy to wait for a reply from the closing editor. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:21, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * "come back after six month(s) with significant new evidence of coverage and create an article" just means the same conversation will have to be had later than sooner. Very frustrating a clearly notable topic can't simply get a notability assessment. I don't get it, but whatever... --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 21:45, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:14, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

The school is a religious school. Very heavy on the whole Christianity faith. I assumed it was theirs because it is not something out of their reach. The school is owned by a church. So only bible stuff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.242.98.167 (talk) 23:46, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
