Mito

Hi Mito, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 13:33, July 18, 2005 (UTC)

External links

The guidelines for external links on wikipedia are at Wikipedia:External links. Generally, the only links that should be included are links to official websites and websites offering high-quality, extensive coverage of the topic. There shouldn't be more than one or two of those, usually. Advertising and websites that aren't directly related to the article itself should not be listed. Hope this helps; feel free to ask for clarification if something doesn't make sense. --Spangineer (háblame) 14:06, July 18, 2005 (UTC)

Miss Universe

Mito, I did not remove your trivia section on the Miss Universe page. As I described in my edit summary, all I did was update the category. Please feel free to view the page's history to see the single change I made. - Rachel, July 19, 2005

Donald Trump is already mentioned and linked in the introduction of the article, so it isn't necessary to link to him again. Also, for whatever it's worth, if he wasn't, then the appropiate place would be in the 'See also' section. This is one of the tips that can be found on Wikipedia's annotated article.

Well, to propose most articles for deletion, the place is Wikipedia:Votes for deletion, although that can be intimidating for relatively new editors (articles that are simply vandalism, or meet one of the other Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion can be deleted on sight, which is requested by adding a {{delete}} or even better {{db|put reason here}} tag). In the case of Miss Universe Organization it would be simpler to just add any information you can find that is correct, but missing from the Miss Universe article, into that article, then replace everything in the 'Organization' version with just #REDIRECT [[Miss Universe]]. That would accomplish the "merge" suggested by User:AntonioMartin's merge tags, so then the merge tag could also be removed from the Miss Universe article. The final step would be to remove the link to the Org. article from the main article, since it would just take anyone that clicks it back to the main article. Niteowlneils 01:07, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Nadayearwood.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Nadayearwood.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 00:59, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Image:Scolosse.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Scolosse.jpg. I notice 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. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 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 any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --Chowbok ☠ 01:20, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for File:River island logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:River island logo.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 01:06, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:River island logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:River island logo.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Cloudbound (talk) 20:19, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
