Cricket biographies edit

There is currently a section on WT:CRICKET about the application of WP:NOTDIARY. We don't add the sort of match by match scores that you did on KL Rahul. Please try to understand why. Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:31, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

You will have seen the notification pop up. I'm assuming you bothered to read this. In that case please stop making similar edits - I've just undone two more on other cricketers' articles. They are not needed and starting to become disruptive. Blue Square Thing (talk) 22:07, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

February 2023 edit

  Hello, I'm SunDawn. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Dubai Police Force, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 04:39, 9 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Your edit to Dubai Police Force has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa (talk) 14:38, 18 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of File:GHIATH-Smart-Patrol-Exterior-3-800x533.jpg edit

 

A tag has been placed on File:GHIATH-Smart-Patrol-Exterior-3-800x533.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://www.topgear.com/car-news/suvs/w-motors-reveals-ghiath-smart-patrol-giant-police-suv. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

Orphaned non-free image File:ANB bank new logo.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:ANB bank new logo.jpg. 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) 17:14, 4 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
