Between the Flags Article Deletion
Why was article Between the Flags Deleted?

It was not advertising it was an article containing information regarding a company and a logo such as the Speedo article, but was not blantant advertising.

According to the guidelines for Blatant advertising. Pages which exclusively promote some entity and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic. Note that simply having a company or product as its subject does not qualify an article for this criterion. Matt121matt121 02:23, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * There is no assertion of importance of the company, no source of any kind together with big pictures of the company product. --WinHunter (talk) 16:05, 21 October 2007 (UTC)


 * That would be the reason why I created an article for it because I have not been able to find out a direct link for the company, etc.
 * I marked it as a stub so other users would know to add on to it. Matt121matt121 21:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Article length aside there is no assertion of importance of any kind. Please see WP:COMPANY for more details. --WinHunter (talk) 23:42, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

I've just reverted a WinBot edit. It looks like the bot replaced the word "subst" with a template message reminding users to use "subst". In any case, the existing messages don't make any sense following the bot's edit. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:32, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually it looks like this happened more than a few times. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:34, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I will review its recent edits. --WinHunter (talk) 15:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Can you take a look at this?
Hey, Can I get you to take a look at this article? It looks like the content calls for CSD, but i'm not sure if I should let someone try and clean it up before going to that step. Thanks! --Amaraiel 14:01, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Shmuel Yanai Deletion
I have posted 2 pictures of boats of Aliyah Bet commanded by Shmuel Yanai. The pics of the Haviva Reik and the Henrietta Szold were provided by Paul Silverstone (he had provided permission for use) - what needs to be done to allow display of these pics? They show how small these transport vessels were, and in what bad shape they were in - ading to the story of courage the reality of risk of both crew and passengers. Please tell me how I can show pics of these boats and meet your requirements. SZAgassi 11:42, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:HK ocean park logo.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:HK ocean park logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  PxMa 23:27, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I believe the rational is now added. --WinHunter (talk) 08:58, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Deleted images in Saskatoon neighbourhood articles
I was wondering what the proper way of avoiding speedy deletion of images should be, like the ones I added to several of the Saskatoon neighbourhoods. These were images where the author gave me permission to use them on Wikipedia under a GFDL license. Up to now, I have uploaded the file and used it in the article; then informed Wikimedia Commons (permissions@wikimedia.org) of the original file URL, the corresponding Wikipedia image URL, and the article that the image was used in. Several of the ones I have added were deleted because Wikimedia did not review the image fast enough and remove the speedy deletion code in time. If there's a better method for me to add these images without them being deleted, please describe it on my talk page. Thanks. Drm310 04:59, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Note that you uploaded the images under a non-commercial license. If the image is released under GFDL please provide a source and tag the image with the correct image tag (GFDL tag i/o non-commercial) accordingly. Thanks. --WinHunter (talk) 13:58, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Not again...
That was weird, wasn't it :-) Don't worry; it's a known problem :-) Happy editing! -- Agüeybaná  15:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for blocking BoricuaeddieBot. Looks like my RfA was the one of the only ones that he didn't get to, which is amusing since I'm actually Jewish! Haha. GlassCobra 15:13, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
