Speedy deletion of Image:Arms of Adolphus. Duke of Cambridge.PNG

A tag has been placed on Image:Arms of Adolphus. Duke of Cambridge.PNG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:NZdollar Queen.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:NZdollar Queen.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Misplaced Pages: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. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy. 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.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:34, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Template:British flags

Both of you; nothing on the talk page, so that's just edit-warring pure and simple. Any more and I'll invoke probation. Black Kite 15:42, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Astrotrain stop edit warring on the Ulster Banner issue as you are on Portal:Northern Ireland/Intro and other articles. You have failed to provide WP:RS when ask on numerous occassions to support your claims, failure to do so means your edits are WP:OR.--Padraig (talk) 22:55, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Flag

This addition is pretty provocative and inconsistent with any other article in the series. The really isn't any encyclopaedic need for it, as already made clear by BHG. Please don't re-add it. Rockpocket 23:00, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Looking through your recent contributions, I have come to the conclusion that there is justifiable concerns being expressed about your focus on adding the Union Flag and Ulster Banner to a number of articles. These flags are contentious and thus we should ask ourselves what do our readers gain from having a flag on an article vs the inevitable disruption and bad feeling that their presence can invoke. I just don't see much benefit here. The flag is not official, therefore its representative value to us is minimal.

There is a rapidly decreased tolerance for this sort of edit-warring since the ArbCom. You, I know from your comments elsewhere, are aware of what has happened to other editors who have pushed their luck. Please don't put yourself in that situations, since if you continue with these sorts of edits without getting consensus you will be placed on probation. The chances are this will be the last warning you will get. Please heed it. Thanks. Rockpocket 23:44, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
