This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Elias Yfantis, and it appears to be a substantial copy of http://wiki.phantis.com/index.php?title=Elias_Yfantis&redirect=no. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 14:40, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Omar Hernandez Garcia

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Omar Hernandez Garcia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  – iridescent 23:58, 23 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Red or Dead.jpg

edit
 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Red or Dead.jpg. 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.

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 images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 11:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Epsp.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. Peripitus (Talk) 11:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  • If you hold the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on [[Talk:File:Bravo Raúl.jpg]].
  • Or alternately drop me a note about this file if I have misunderstood something.

Olympiacos / Fair use

edit

Wikipedia has a fair use policy which places specific limits on how non-free images such as Image:Olympiakos4.svg can be used. In particular, decorative uses, such as those you added in this edit are not permitted. Oldelpaso (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I see you have reverted my changes without discussion. The Manual of Style dictates a common layout used as a house style in Wikipedia articles. My changes were made in order to bring the article in line with it, please engage in discussion rather than simply blindly reverting, and do not remove cleanup tags without good reason. Only the first word of section titles should be capitalised, and the article title should not be repeated in them - see WP:MOSHEAD. Flags should not be included in titles, or in front of links - see WP:MOSFLAG. I converted the squad layout because the version I used is standard across Wikipedia and has the consensus of the Football Wikiproject. If you think a different squad template should be used, I suggest you bring it up there. Fair use logos are only permitted in specific circumstances laid out by the fair use policy. decorative use such using the Olympiacos crest in squad templates is not permitted. Thank you for your time. Oldelpaso (talk) 18:17, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
If you agree with the points other than the squad template, then why have you reverted most of the changes? I have removed the "2009/10 lineup" since it is original research, which is not permitted. If you wish to use a different squad template then please discuss it at Wikipedia talk:Wikiproject Football. The standard template is based on the consensus of a large number of Wikipedians, and every football club article should use it. Every other club in the Greek top division uses it, as does every club in the English, French, German, Scottish, Dutch leagues etc. Why should Olympiacos be different? Oldelpaso (talk) 15:05, 4 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
I figure if the club have www.olympiacos.org as their website then that might well be their preferred spelling. I'll refer to them as Olympiakos if you prefer. You might want to familiarise yourself with the page Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. The case for using a different squad template appears to be that Olympiakos is, to borrow a phrase from Barcelona, Més que un club. But Olympiakos fans do not own the article. Again the "2009/10 lineup" should not be present. It is unsourced, and an example of crystal balling. To answer your question I am from Manchester - indeed I once went to a friendly between my team and Olympiakos. Oldelpaso (talk) 09:43, 5 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'd like to request your input at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football#Olympiacos_F.C.. Oldelpaso (talk) 10:26, 5 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

That red template is indeed against the rules - at least for the English Wikipedia. It may be allowed on the Greek Wikipedia, as I have seen, but it definitely is not in this place. --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 10:55, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, I'll start with Wikipedia:Accessibility, in combination with Wikipedia:Colours#Using colours in articles. The way the squad is displayed in the "red template" makes it very difficult to read the actual content. If colors and/or other formattings are used, they should help to provide quick access to the desired information, in contrast to what they do on said table. Further, it is not necessary to display more data than the player's name, his position and number and his country. Everything beyond this dataset violates WP:NOT#IINFO. Finally, just take a look at every other football team article in here, they all use the Fs template. This template has been agreed upon as consensus by the football project, a place where any issues regarding football articles are being discussed. If you have a problem with the current consensus, bring it up on the talk page of said project. Any more questions? --Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 13:53, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop assuming ownership of articles such as Olympiacos F.C.. Doing so may lead to disruptive behavior such as edit wars and is a violation of policy, which may lead to a block from editing. Soccer-holicI hear voices in my head... 10:49, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of List of Olympiacos F.C. Managers

edit
 

A tag has been placed on List of Olympiacos F.C. Managers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

There is already another article on the same issue

You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Sthenel (talk) 01:51, 28 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
