Response
editYou should first follow the first steps of the dispute resolution process before going to arbitration (they'll just redirect you to that page you if you don't). I'm not sure what the dispute is about, but you should first try talking to the user on their talk page or on the pertinent article's talk page. MahangaTalk 18:51, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- I would recommend doing the same. Also, for a first level header, you would type in

Malformed request
editI've removed a malformed request you made at WP:RFAR. I would urge you to accept the advice of the above two users - arbitration is the last step in dispute resolution. That being said, if you do decide to file a request for arbitration, please complete the form before saving the page. –xenotalk 14:46, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Thank you Xeno when you say "malformed request" I assume you mean I was taking to long filling out my draft? Sorry about that I just realized I was supposed to draft it somewhere else and then paste it into the form. On your other point however I have done other steps before - I entered into discussions and requested a third party opinion. Should I have done more? Middlemarch2256 (talk) 16:18, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- Yes - or you could draft it in place using "Show preview" to view it and tweak it to your liking prior to saving. I only took a brief look at the talk page but it still doesn't seem ripe for arbitration. You could consider a WP:RFC on the talk page if discourse isn't resolving the problem. And then there is Mediation. The committee will likely reject any request at this point as premature. –xenotalk 16:21, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Okay Xeno I am doing what you advise right now. RFC it is. Thank you!Middlemarch2256 (talk) 17:21, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
File source and copyright licensing problem with File:19-MAR-1982 ugh.pdf
editThanks for uploading File:19-MAR-1982 ugh.pdf. 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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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:Non-free content, 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 files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 02:49, 10 March 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 02:49, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
