Helpme

I can use some help here... I am working on a WikiPage concerning a Programming Language. I would like to add some SourceCode examples of different language features. The problem is that the Wiki Auto detection of code (the dashed box around it) is not always working. Sometimes it breaks up one code example into several boxes. Can you point me to an example or article that explains how to do it correctly? Also a RTF to WikiCode convertor would be great for SourceCode examples...

Thank you Very much! Talandor 09:59, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

There isn't any autodetection of code, it just that when a line starts with a space,

like this one,

it is shown with the crazy box; preformatting. So you just need to start each line with a space, like in the C++ example.

The tags <nowiki> and <code> and <pre> may also be useful. I'm not sure about an RTF to Wikicode converter, perhaps try googling or ask at the Help desk.--Commander Keane 10:06, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I got permission and an image from the company who makes the Chrome Compiler to use the Chrome logo on the Wikipage I made. When I upload that image it gets deleted... Am I not allowed to do that?

My most sincere apologies for the long delay -- it seems nobody in the IRC channel is quite sure of a good answer for your question. Please post to the help desk for centralized discussion -- you're bound to get a better answer, there. :) Luna Santin 13:46, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Chrome-150-White.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Chrome-150-White.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 05:03, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Chrome-150-White.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Chrome-150-White.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 19:09, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
