Religion in Belarus

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Religion in Belarus, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://countrystudies.us/belarus/20.htm. 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.

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 15:58, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

AfD for "De Pietro"

Hello Mangostar. I noted that you nominated "De Pietro" for deletion. I think you should tell it to the creator of the article. I cannot say whether this article is a hoax or not. If there is no reference, the article should be deleted. Regards, Masterpiece2000 12:13, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

WP:FLAG in EB article

Hi there. Which part of this guideline were you referring to? I can't see anything that discourages the use of flags in infoboxes. Tim Vickers 00:16, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Redirect of Indian attidudes toward Americans

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Indian attidudes toward Americans, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Indian attidudes toward Americans is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Indian attidudes toward Americans, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Image problems?

What is the difference between the {{tl:PD-self}} and {{tl:GFDL-self}} licensing? One explicity states "GNU', but they both essaentially say the same thing. I created the picture and release it. Thanks. wbfergus 13:27, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. I have quite a few pictures on here (around 20-30), and I'd hate to have to go back and add a different if one was superceded by a newer one. I could really care less if anybody wants to cite me as the author or not. I guess some people need that extra attention, but I'm old enough now that I don't really care. wbfergus 13:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Unused images

Please stop tagging public domain images as speedy under the claim that they are only used in speedy pages. This claim only works if, once the page is speedied, that the image is covered by the CSD because it's unused. There is one a speedy criteria which refers to unused images, but only to images which don't have a free license. An image which is in the public domain doesn't become speedy-deletable just because it's unused. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 14:16, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 20:59, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Ghana-Nigeria relations

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Ghana-Nigeria relations, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://countrystudies.us/ghana/110.htm.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

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) 07:32, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Images

I don't think any image on Misplaced Pages would "significantly harm the reader's ability to understand the article". You're blowing it grossly out of proportion. The image is there in order to identify two people; and, regardless of the importance of the event it documents, it is relevant to the article. In no way does it violate fair use. The picture helps the reader understand who the article's subject was on tour with and what he looked like at the time. It does nothing but enhance the quality of this article.

US relations / POV tag

Per this conversation, can I ask why you are creating pages and immediately flagging them with POV tags? Pages on bilateral relations are indeed often helpful, but why create them out of material that you don't think is neutral? - Revolving Bugbear 21:19, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
