Hi, 3d engineer, and welcome to Wikipedia!

On behalf of the Wikipedia community, I would like to thank you for your contributions. You're already off to great start. I see a future for you among the throngs of Wikipediholics! If you need assistance with titling new articles, please see the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. For general questions go to Wikipedia:Help or the FAQ. If we've been so inattentive as to not have the answer in any of those places, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Finally, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. If you have any more questions after that, feel free to ask me directly on my user talk page.


Additional tips

edit

Here are some extra tips to help you get familiar with Wikipedia.


You can find me at my user page or talk page for any questions. Happy editing, and I hope to see you around.

Vengeance engine

edit

Like you said, the Unreal engine is a base. The article on the Vengeance engine explains that it is based on it. By the way, please sign your comments with ~~~~--Drat (Talk) 21:16, 19 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unreal engine

edit

Per your restoration of the previous version of the article, did you read Talk:Unreal_Engine_technology#Copyvio_comparison, and in particular Bunchofgrapes's comment that

Note that I said "in theory". Nysin is also right that that an article on another wiki is not a Reliable Source. The core Verifiability page says that information not verifiable from reliable sources does not belong in Wikipeida.

? Even if the copyright issue were to disappear, most of the article would be inappropriate in Wikipedia. Nysin 13:36, 6 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Personal knowledge is not an allowed source for articles. Full stop. Please read and understand Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Verifiability. If you cannot understand these core policies, you should not edit Wikipedia. If you continue to revert the article to your preferred version, you may be blocked from editing (though it wouldn't be me who does the blocking, since I've been involved in the content dispute here.) —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 15:28, 13 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Again

edit

I see my previous message did not sink in.

Let me make this simple: Do not edit Unreal Engine unless if you also cite a Reliable Source for your information within the same edit. You have been given a great number of pointers to pages describing the core Wikipedia policies of No Original Research and WP:Verifiability, but have shown no indication of reading or understanding them. Stop wasting other editors' time, please. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 04:46, 17 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unreal Engine

 

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Unreal Engine. See Wikipedia:Copyrights. Copyright violations are unacceptable and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Your original contributions are welcome. --Drat (Talk) 14:06, 23 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Read this!

edit

Before you make any futher edits like this one, you MUST provide and cite evidence for your claims, from reliable sources that can be independently verified. I don't care how much you know, even if you know more than the guys who coded the damned engine; Original research is forbidden on Wikipedia. People have asked you to follow the rules but you persist in not doing so.--Drat (Talk) 16:32, 25 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Cite your sources!

edit

I see you still haven't gotten the hint after more than year. Either provide citations for your claims about the Unreal Engine and related articles or do not edit these articles. I don't care if you work with the engine on a daily basis (as your username implies); the rules apply to you as much as anyone else. Providing/changing information based wholly on your own expertise, with no reliable, independently verifiable sources is original research.--Drat (Talk) 02:40, 21 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

 

A tag has been placed on Too human uses modified ue3 image, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} 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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. H2H 05:06, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Unrealed-toohuman-3.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Unrealed-toohuman-3.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, 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, 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 Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 06:09, 9 August 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Zedla (talk) 06:09, 9 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Original research

edit

Two years and you still don't seem to get it. You can't just poke around in files and then use the info you've gleaned; that's original research. You can't use screenshots of said poking as evidence; you have to cite published, reliable sources.--Drat (Talk) 06:12, 9 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Proposed deletion of YETI (game engine)

edit
 

The article YETI (game engine) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG. Topic lacks significant coverage from reliable secondary sources.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
