User talk:Wikimastername

Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Wikimastername! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on or by typing helpme at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! User:Marek69. 20:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Copyright
Hi, you've labelled the image Image:Nelson-Rolihlahla-Mandela.jpg as "The copyright holder of this work allows anyone to use it for any purpose including unrestricted redistribution, commercial use, and modification", giving a link to the Copyright Act as permission. Can you refer to a specific section of the Act which grants such wide usage? You also gave the source as http://www.gov.za/ - can you specify which page it was found on? Zaian (talk)

I added exactly where I found it-although my browser doesn't want to show the photograph? Here it is: http://www.gcis.gov.za/gcis/gcis_profile.jsp?id=1040. I also added the correct section of the Act [Amended by Act No. 56 of 1980.], although I am still seeking other sections of the Act to expand the claim. see: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Dewet/GCIS (Wikimastername (talk) 14:09, 19 November 2009 (UTC))

Speedy deletion nomination of The Company's Garden
A tag has been placed on The Company's Garden requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
