Welcome, and fair use images

edit

Hello Jarphi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I've reverted your edit to List of Premiers of Alberta. Though I understand that your edit was a good faith attempt to improve that article, it was against Wikipedia policies. Specifically, you added two copyrighted images to the article. In general, Wikipedia does not allow copyrighted images. There are exceptions, as described at Wikipedia:Non-free content. The images you added fall within those exceptions for the purposes of the articles about the images subjects (Harry Strom and Peter Lougheed), but do not fall within those exceptions for the purposes of List of Premiers of Alberta (the rules are quite complicated, and you shouldn't worry about it if you don't fully understand them). In any case, I see that you've been making useful edits for the better part of a year, so thank you for that, and again, welcome, and please don't hesitate to contact me if you ever have any questions.

Bonnyville population controversy

edit

Thank you for adding this to Bonnyville. Hope you didn't mind the revert but I thought it might be helpful to be consistent with the approach taken at Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo#Demographics on a similar controversy. Hope this accomplishes what you set out to do and thensome. Cheers, Hwy43 (talk) 07:48, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Alberta provincial electoral districts, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Camrose and Highwood (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

File:Pro Life Alberta Logo.png

edit
 

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:16, 10 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Redistributed Alberta election results

edit

I notice that the new Alberta ridings Airdrie-Cochrane and Chestermere-Strathmore have the same numbers for the re-distributed results. I expect that only one of these is correct, but I don't know which one. What is your source for the re-distributed results?Tunborough (talk) 21:17, 20 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Good catch, thank you! Got them from @kylejhutton, not sure if there's a more authoritative calculation somewhere. Jarphi (talk) 21:54, 20 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
