Nothing to do with POV, it's to do with reliable sources, which you haven't provided. You will continue to be reverted until you do. Thanks. --Rodhullandemu 18:55, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Note that each ISPs removal of the blacklisting is on a schedule specific to the ISP - I think it's being tracked at the related Administrators' noticeboard. Mr. Bene (talk) 20:49, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with File:Switzerland.gif

Thanks for uploading File:Switzerland.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Speedy deletion of Down-down

Hello Kreb, this is a message from an automated bot to inform you that the page you created on May 5 2010, Down-down, has been marked for speedy deletion by User:109.224.134.102 (note: page has no mainspace links, and 2 edits). This has been done because the page is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader (see CSD). If you think the tag was placed in error, please add "{{hangon}}" to the page text, and edit the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. If you have a question about this bot, please ask it at User talk:SDPatrolBot II. If you have a question for the user who tagged the article, see User talk:109.224.134.102. Thanks, - SDPatrolBot II (talk) on behalf of 109.224.134.102 (talk · contribs) 02:27, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Moving pages to create redirects

Hi there! From looking at your contribution history, you seem to move (rename) a lot of pages only to immediately move them back to their original names. If you're doing this just to create redirects, there's a much easier way. If you want to create Article B as a redirect to Article A, then you can simply create Article B with its only content being #REDIRECT [[Article A]]. That way you don't have to do a double move, and it's much easier to fix if you make a mistake (like you did with Rail transport in South Africa). There's more information at Wikipedia:Redirect, or feel free to ask at my talk page. Cheers, htonl (talk) 01:57, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Lindner.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Lindner.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Template:North East railway line

Speedy deletion nomination of UK road A1175.svg

A tag has been placed on UK road A1175.svg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article talk page, file description page, file talk page, MediaWiki page, MediaWiki talk page, category talk page, portal talk page, template talk page, help talk, user page, user talk or special page from the main/article space.

If you can fix the redirect to point to a mainspace page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you are fixing the redirect. If you think the redirect should be retained as is for some reason, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. DASHBot (talk) 18:11, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Riot (disambiguation)

Hi Kreb, I reverted your edit to Riot (disambiguation) based on the guidelines here: MOS:DABRED. Unlike regular articles, disambiguation pages are supposed to provide links to existing data only, not suggestions to future articles. If you know of an article that mentions the upcoming film, please include it. Leschnei (talk) 12:41, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Jersey passport

Hi Kreb. I expect you're right about "registered". But the article is surely still wrong to say that just living in Jersey can ground eligibility for a Jersey passport. Please correct that, if only by removing it. Errantius (talk) 12:12, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
