Links to internet groups

Hello Sap.prabhu. I wish to inform you that Misplaced Pages rules do not allow insertion of links to web groups blogs or chat rooms. Please see WP:NOT#SOCIALNET. Please take care about it. --Deepak D'Souza (talk • contribs) 08:47, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the information, will take care.--Ashok Prabhu (talk) 08:13, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Kavale Mutt

While you are editing Kavale mutt, please take a little time to format the article in a manner appropriate for WIkipedia, and to add appropriate links. An explanation of the subject for those not already familiar with it would also be a good idea. See Misplaced Pages:Help and Misplaced Pages:Manual of style for more information.

Hi. You removed some tags (wikify and cleanup) from the article mentioned above. Please don't do that without addressing the issues mentioned in the tags. Thank you. DJ Clayworth (talk) 16:32, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Ok DJ, YOu may put that back if you wish. I thought I have had taken care of wikifying it etc. I tried to put that back but I did not found exact 'text' to put it back. Thanks --Ashok Prabhu (talk) 08:13, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Kavale Mutt Swamiji.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Kavale Mutt Swamiji.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, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. 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 per Misplaced Pages's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:12, 7 February 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 05:12, 7 February 2010 (UTC) {{helpme}} Help me fix this.

Help me

{{helpme}} Need help in setting the copyright things for the images that I have uploaded. I could not find a way to edit it. please help.

I have moved this to the bottom of the page - new entries on a page are added to the bottom, unless you are replying to a specific message, in which case you reply after that message.

You say that you created the images yourself - but I notice that none of the images appear to have meta-data (which says which model of camera was used, the settings, etc).

I think your best bet would be to ask about this at Misplaced Pages:Media Copyright Questions. Leave a message there - but first read the blurb near the top of the page which explains about how to add a copyright tag. Assuming that this does not help, you'll need to explain which image(s) you need help with, where you got the images from, and ask if they would explain how to tag them. Good luck! -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 15:14, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Please read this!

At the moment, there is no one on the IRC channel for helping editors who can help you with the copyright tags. Read the section above titled "Help me", which explains where to go to get help with this. Regards, -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 16:03, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello. 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. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.

Hi, I don't think you'll get your answer by someone who responds to {{helpme}}s. I think you have best chance if you ask at WikiProject India, probably at their translation department. Svick (talk) 13:14, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
