Fair use rationale for Image:Otona No DS Kao Training.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Otona No DS Kao Training.jpg. 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Your recent contributions

I came here to comment about this edit: What you did doesn't do what it seems you thought it would. Rather than "add project pages rather than talk pages", your change will only change the sorting of non-mainspace pages. For example, if the template were on Category talk:Nintendo articles by quality, the entry will now be sorted under "C" (for "Category") instead of "N" (for "Nintendo"); it will not make Category:Nintendo articles by quality actually show up in the category.

In checking your contributions prior to writing the above, I notice you've been going around nominating things for deletion and commenting on talk pages "This should be deleted". As was mentioned by SMcCandlish here, it would be better if you brought these deletions up at WT:NES. Anomie 13:38, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment. I now see that my edit did not do what I thought it would. I am kinda new around here and am still trying to see how things work. I probably shouldn't be experimenting like that and for that I am sorry. It seems that you understand what I was trying to do; maybe you know the correct way to do it?

As for my deletion addiction, I am just trying to make Wikipedia a little less bloated; I find it hard to get to the pages I am looking for as it is. Judging by the members list you don't seem to be a part of WikiProject Nintendo, and may not be able to help me. I was just wondering if there is some kind of "code of conduct" for WikiProject Nintendo or maybe for all WikiProjects or even all of Wikipedia in general. Do all matters have to go through some sort of voting process or is there someone in charge? I never know if I have the right to edit certain articles and don't want to mess anything up. --bse3 20:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, there is no way to add an article to a category by placing something on the talk page. For a "code of conduct", it's just generally to be polite and ask for opinions if you're going to make major changes to something, nothing terribly formal.

For editing articles, Wikipedia encourages you to be bold, but not reckless, so go ahead and edit any article where you have useful information to contribute. At worst, someone will revert you and you can discuss the matter on an appropriate talk page. If you're unsure about something, or again if you're going to make major changes to a high-profile article, ask for feedback on the article's talk page before doing it. It also helps to be familiar with the manual of style. And don't forget to cite reliable sources for new information you add, especially when it's likely to be challenged or when adding information to articles that already have good sourcing.

CfD nomination of Category:Nintendo Setting articles

I have nominated Category:Nintendo Setting articles (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at the discussion page. Thank you. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:48, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

It doesn't seem to have many articles in the category, as several articles have been merged and redirected. Feel free to fil it up and let them know not to delete it if that is your intention, otherwise it will be deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 04:07, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Indianapolis 500 Legends.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Indianapolis 500 Legends.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:11, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Nintendo task force membership update

I am currently gauging the active membership of the Nintendo task force. I have split the members list into an "active list" and an "inactive list" and have moved all members (except myself) to the "inactive list". To confirm that you're still an active participant in the task force, please go to the membership list at WP:NIN and simply move your name from the "inactive list" back onto the "active list". If you no longer wish to be a member, simply remove your name from the list. After two weeks (around 23 March 2009), I will remove all names on the inactive list. Thank you, and hope you're still interested, MuZemike 20:29, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Nintendo task force membership update

It's that time again to update membership status with the Nintendo task force, which we try to do every 3-4 months to keep our membership up-to-date.

All participants have been placed on an "Inactive participants" list. To confirm that you're still a member of the Nintendo task force, simply go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Nintendo#Members and move your name from the "Inactive participants" list to the bottom of the "Active participants" list. If you are no longer an active member in the task force, you may simply remove your name altogether. After 1 month, on October 1, all entries under the "Inactive participants" list will be removed. Hopefully you can stay with us and continue to work on Nintendo-related articles. Regards, MuZemike 17:49, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Nintendo task force membership update

Hello,

It's that time again to update membership status with the Nintendo task force, which we try to do every 3-4 months (though it's been actually 6 months since the last one) to keep our membership up-to-date.

All participants have been placed on an "Inactive participants" list. To confirm that you're still a member of the Nintendo task force, simply go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Nintendo#Members and move your name from the "Inactive participants" list to the bottom of the "Active participants" list. If you are no longer an active member in the task force, you may simply remove your name altogether. After 1 month, on 1 April 2010, all entries under the "Inactive participants" list will be removed. Hopefully you can stay with us and continue to work on Nintendo-related articles. Regards, –MuZemike 17:27, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of D-Link G604T Network Adaptor

The article D-Link G604T Network Adaptor has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

There is no verifiability, its all original research and its not a notable product. Find at least one neutral review, or really this article should go.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jez t e C 19:06, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:50, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Spy Games- Elevator Mission Cover Art.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Spy Games- Elevator Mission Cover Art.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:48, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
