== Stubs ==

Hello,

Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from ] instead of using simply <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki>, if you can.

Thanks!
For computing-related articles, you can use <nowiki>{{Compu-stub}}</nowiki> or pick a more specific category from ]. Thanks! ] 04:39, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

:Okay, I will only use the generic stub template in the most dire of emergencies from now on. ] 06:08, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

==Edit summaries==
<p>When ] there is a small field labeled "]" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:</p> ]<!--

--><p>The text written here will appear on the ] page, in the ], on the ], and in the ] of users who are watching that article. See ] for full information on this feature.</p><!--

-->

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. <!-- Template:Summary --> ] 16:12, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Misplaced Pages better -- thanks for helping.

I work on the ] project and I've noticed you putting the wikify tag on tons of articles. (You're certainly keeping us busy!) I wondered if I could ask you a favour? There is a bot which usually changes '''<nowiki>{{Wikfy}}</nowiki>''' to '''<nowiki>{{wikify-date|September 2006}}</nowiki>''', but it doesn't seem to be working at the moment. Would you mind adding the date specific tag from the begining for the time being? It would make it a bit easier for us to keep track of where we are! Thank you :)

== PROD of ] ==
Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the ] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.


As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{Tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the ]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at ], use a tag such as {{tlp|non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at ]. See ] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Hello! You prodded this article with the reason of "LOL". Thanks for helping to rid Misplaced Pages of junk, but I have two suggestions if you would like to continue prodding deletion-worthy articles:
* It's helpful to leave a more understandable deletion reason, because the reason appears e.g. in the table at ].
* In the case of ], ] via the {{tl|db-attack}} template would have been quicker.
Thanks again and have a good day. ] 07:02, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
:I see. I appear to have been under the mistaken impression that the "prodding" system was somehow automatic, but my entries appear to be under scrutiny. I will have to make my comments less frivolous from now on, it seems. ] 07:04, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading ''']'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the ] 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the ].

== Wikification template ==

As someone who updates and works on the wikification progress template, what do you think of this recent trend of updating it every 5 minutes when 1 article is done?

Do you have any thoughts on these updates? ] 12:55, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
:In my opinion the updating would be best done by a script, or better yet, a hardcoded category-count-constant.

ANI discussion

Your swift response to Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Something strange for you to consider is required, with an explanation of what is going on. Daniel 11:26, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I created that account and had it blocked to create mischief. Salad Days 14:03, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
You've been blocked indefinitely. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 14:49, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Oh Salad Days, you're such a good contributor! I wish you hadn't done that. Hopefully you will appeal in order to lighten your block. The Evil Spartan 14:46, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes, that does seem a little severe. Salad Days 14:50, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Maybe you should have thought about the consequences before you did this. Sean William 14:52, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
The consequences apparently have no sliding scale? It's either "you're blocked," or you're not? Salad Days 14:53, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Agreed. Stupid thing to do? Yes. Indef block? No. Too far. We don't indef block valuable regulars who lose their cool once. We don't even indefblock regular vandals who do that. This is hardly a preventative block. This user probably could have become an admin if he/she had wished. The Evil Spartan 14:55, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
I agree with The Evil Spartan that an indef block for a first offense is a bit unfair. Jayden54 17:30, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your support. Good luck! Salad Days 19:13, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
The block isn't punishment, it's to protect the project. This wasn't a silly prank or a 3RR, it was a premeditated disruption of high order. He registered a username and committed deliberate vandalism with it to get it blocked. This user will probably not become an admin, not with this misstep in judgment as an indicator. - CHAIRBOY (☎) 17:42, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Not the first time, either... . Endorse indef block. Daniel 23:49, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Missing image Image:Bulwer'sPheasant.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Bulwer'sPheasant.jpg, by Strangerer (talk · contribs), another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Bulwer'sPheasant.jpg is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Bulwer'sPheasant.jpg, 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. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:59, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Planning another dead-end page update?

It's been a while since the last one - "my" T section is just about empty. But more editors seem to have become active on the other pages after the N-way split, so I understand it if you want to wait a while still... --Alvestrand 08:22, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Cool Beef

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Cool Beef, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but yours may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. 172.129.222.212 12:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Battling green eye shades, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Icehelmet.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Icehelmet.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 Misplaced Pages (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 Misplaced Pages 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. BetacommandBot (talk) 20:07, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:AnrLogo.svg

Thanks for uploading Image:AnrLogo.svg. 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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

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 Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 21:36, 16 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 21:36, 16 February 2008 (UTC)


Fair use rationale for Image:Ata island.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ata island.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Misplaced Pages's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 10:41, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Religions.png

Thank you for uploading File:Religions.png. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 13:23, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Green Corps

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Green Corps, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
