April 2016

Hello, I'm ArglebargleIV. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Previous 22 to 42 days— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ArglebargleIV (talk) 18:48, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there - sorry again for this confusion. We created a page for RISD Bill Kramer and it linked to the other Bill Kramer. We thought we were simply removing those links. We did not mean to be disruptive

Bill Kramer

Can you hang on please and explain what is happening here. It appears that the article on Bill Kramer was until today about the Wisconsin politician and now is about the VP as RSID. Subsequently you have removed all links from articles about Kramer the Wisconsin politician. Usurption of articles like that is not a good idea. If there should be a separate article about Kramer (RISD) then it should be created as a new page with disambiguation as necessary. Nthep (talk) 19:02, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there - sorry again for this confusion. We created a page for RISD Bill Kramer and it linked to the other Bill Kramer. We thought we were simply removing those links. We did not mean to be disruptive.

OK. I suggest you have a look at WP:Articles for creation and create your article on the RISD Bill Kramer there. The it can be worked out what the two articles should be called. The only thing now is your use of we. All Wikipedia accounts must only be used by one person, not a number of people. If there are more than one of you, will you please create separate accounts (one of you can keep this one). Nthep (talk) 20:59, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - I will. in the interim, can someone unlink the Bill Kramer on the Academy Museum and Hollywood Museum page from the Wisconsin politician that went to jail. Those are different Bill Kramers. That is actually what started all of this. Thanks so much - and really sorry for this

Done. Nthep (talk) 21:05, 23 April 2016 (UTC) PS can you remember to sign your posts on talk pages like this with ~~~~[reply]

Awesome...thanks so much. Signing off with the four dashes. I'm trying to learn how to do this properly! 63009kb (talk) 21:08, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry - just one last thing - the Bill Kramer link on the Hollywood Museum pages: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Hollywood_Motion_Picture_and_Television_Museum. Is still linking to the wrong Bill Kramer. Can you delete that link? Then we are good. So appreciate your help. Thank you. 63009kb (talk) 21:24, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I tried to create the new Bill Kramer page with the one you started for me (and linked to the Academy Museum page). It deleted what I entered. 63009kb (talk) 21:29, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That as partly my fault, I missed a bracket out. Should be all good now. Nthep (talk) 21:36, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. Thanks so much. Really appreciate your help. 63009kb (talk) 21:38, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 19:08, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making test edits to Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Bill Kramer with this edit, even if you intend to fix them later. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. –Qpalzmmzlapq T C 19:20, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. I'm not sure what you want to achieve by removing links to Bill Kramer, but what you are doing is concidered disruptive to the Wikipedia project. Please state what you wish to see happen, and we will help you make that happen. If you don't, I'm afraid you will be blocked. -- The Voidwalker ^Discuss 19:33, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I welcomed this editor a little more than an hour ago and he is already being warned about getting blocked. A little less heavy-handedness might lead to retaining more editors. Buster Seven Talk 19:38, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Buster7, this editor has only been active an hour and has already had a case brought against his editing on ANI. Right now, the edits are disruptive and people are trying to get his attention so he stops and discusses them so they don't have to undo more of his edits. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:50, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Liz, Understood now that I investigated a bit. But my message still has worth. I know that we get too many disruptive editors that waste valuable time. I also know some editors that started on the wrong foot and have become quality contributors. Not that this editor has potential. I see that his unwillingness to understand is a sure sign of his intent. But some editors that mis-step DO have potential and we can't forget that in our battle to protect the Encyclopedia.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bill Kramer (fund raiser)

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 Bill Kramer (fund raiser) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.risd.edu/about/leadership/cabinet/bill-kramer/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Crow^Caw 22:02, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Crow - the Bill Kramer (fund raiser) page is legit. The RISD page text that was used as a basis for it is not copyrighted - its Bill Kramer's bio which was expanded for the page. This was established because their is another Bill Kramer that is being linked incorrectly. 63009kb (talk) 22:21, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please return to the article and address the tagged issues. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:35, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - will do - it will be tomorrow. Still learning about proper citations, etc. Thanks... 63009kb (talk) 03:15, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Bill Kramer.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Bill Kramer.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:18, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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

A tag has been placed on Bill Kramer (fund raiser), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.
