Vuelta Mexico Telmex edit

Hi, Sorry if I've over-written your last amendment to the Vuelta Mexico article, but I'd done a major cleanup and then had an edit conflict when I came to save it, so I replaced your version with mine. I think it's an improvement, but can't spot what difference you've just made which I've lost. PamD (talk) 09:24, 29 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

("Edit conflict" just means that two people are trying to work on an article at the same time, nothing to do with any disagreement! PamD (talk) 09:26, 29 March 2009 (UTC) )Reply

Hello - I can tell you're anxious to improve this article, but please be careful not to remove maintenance templates until the issue it relates to is taken care of. In this case, the article relies on one single source right now (cycling news). An article should rely on multiple sources - ideally all content in the article should be sourced. Thus, this article needs additional sources, so the {{refimprove}} tag should remain. Regards, --AbsolutDan (talk) 03:35, 30 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Good job finding those sources for Vuelta Mexico Telmex. I have removed the {{refimprove}} tag. Keep up the good work! Best regards, --AbsolutDan (talk) 01:51, 1 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Disputed fair use rationale for File:Vuelta mexcio final.png} edit

Thank you for uploading File:Vuelta mexcio final.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

File copyright problem with File:Vuelta Mexico Telmex.JPG edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Vuelta Mexico Telmex.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. — neuro(talk)(review) 02:26, 31 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Clan Armstrong edit

Hello, thanks for your messages. Please take your claims to the article's talk page. Your edits contain links to family crest websites, and not to reputable sources. Yes, the Domesday Book is a reliable source, but as far as I know the Armstrongs don't appear in it. Find some google book sources or other reputable, scholarly sources and then post to the article's talk page, where other editors can weigh in. Thanks.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
