Blocked
You have been blocked for vandalism for one week. To contest this block, add the text {{unblock}} on this page, along with an explanation of why you believe this block to be unjustified. You can also email the blocking administrator or any administrator from this list. Please be sure to include your username (if you have one) and IP address in your email.

If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia after the block has expired, you will be blocked for longer and longer periods of time.

Please do not erase warnings on this page. Doing so is also considered vandalism. Owen× 00:18, 18 October 2006 (UTC)Reply


{{unblock|I only posted something on the talk page which is not vandalism. I didn't put something on the main page which would be vandalism. I would really like to contribute to some other articles so please can you deblock me.}}

I'm grateful for the contributions you've made -- really! -- but you've also vandalized a number of pages over time, and you need to know that vandalism and personal attacks really aren't acceptable -- we take such things seriously. While you generally do have more leeway on talk pages, that leeway isn't absolute; see talk page guidelines, among other key policies. With that in mind, I feel you should have been blocked. Per the assumption of good faith, and hoping that you've learned your lesson, I've reduced the duration of the block so that it will last another 24 hours. Please do continue to contribute.

List of the 100 largest municipalities in Canada by population edit

Note that this edit contradicts the cited source. Don't change population numbers to some ephemeral value with no citation. Thanks. Mindmatrix 18:24, 22 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from editing. --Gary Will 23:33, 22 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

The page lists the populations as they were in 2001, not "what they would have been in 2001 if municipal boundaries were other than they were and as they were later changed to be." In 2001, the City of Montreal's population is what is listed. The City has changed since then and is now geographically bigger. We all get that. It doesn't change what the population was in 2001. --Walor 04:55, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:Hitomi promo.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Hitomi promo.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:06, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

August Underground Mordum edit

The article August Underground Mordum has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. See also WP:ATTRIBUTION. NawlinWiki 03:37, 10 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

French people edit

I have removed the image Image:René lévesque.jpg from the article, because a non-free is unnecessary there; it previously contained a free one in its place. (It would probably be usable in an article about René Lévesque, but that image already has its share of fair use images.) In addition, the file has no copyright tag, and no information on its source. Please have a look at fair use and image use policies and guidelines for more details. Thank you. - Mike Rosoft 14:37, 8 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Utada Hikaru Promo.jpg) edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Utada Hikaru Promo.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:31, 21 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Commercial use of Image:Elisha cuthbert Wire Image.JPG edit

 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Elisha cuthbert Wire Image.JPG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Elisha cuthbert Wire Image.JPG has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

Nonfree images on userpage edit

Lanny Barbie edit

I wish to point out to you that all of the other porn stars on Wikipedia are referred to by their country of origin, and not by their state, province, or whatever other subunit. For example:

Even other people from Quebec are similarly discussed:

Thus Lanny Barbie should be similarly referred to. Tabercil 23:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • It does not matter if Quebec has been recognized as a nation by the House of Commons. The fact is that it is still a province of Canada, and as I pointed out, the pattern here it to identify a person by what country they are from, not what state/province/canton.

Pimp userbox deletion edit

Someone proposed the pimp userbox (that I made) that's on your userpage for deletion at [[5]], even though it's a userbox (and therefore doesn't have to be encyclopedic) and does not meet any userbox content restrictions as per Wikipedia:Userboxes#Content_restrictions.

Unspecified source for Image:Gackt3.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading Image:Gackt3.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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 02:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 02:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use Image:Pierre_falardeau.jpg edit

 
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Pierre_falardeau.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 02:15, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Chakushin_ari_cover.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Chakushin_ari_cover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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. Videmus Omnia Talk 02:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Image:Chiaki_kuriyama.jpg edit

I have tagged Image:Chiaki_kuriyama.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you.
