Himesh Reshammiya

[edit]

Hi, I removed the {{cleanup}} template from the article, because there were no reasons mentioned on the talk page or in the edit summary. Later, I realized that you did post some comments on the talk page, but removed them later. If you put any template, please mention a reason in the edit summary or on the talk page. utcursch | talk 02:28, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what do you mean by "dotted box"... Can you provide more details or a screenshot? utcursch | talk 12:01, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uploading Photos

[edit]

Hi, if you can get a freely-licensed (see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Free licenses) image from somewhere, just upload it to Wikimedia Commons. This way, it can be used for Wikipedias in other languages as well.

Most of the images found through a Google search will be copyrighted, and they cannot be used for Wikipedia.

Some images can be considered as fair use (see Wikipedia:Non-free_content#Images). These include posters, promotional material released for publicity etc.). These can be used as fair use, but their use on Wikipedia is deprecated, and you've to provide a detailed fair-use rationale (see Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline). utcursch | talk 07:51, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Himesh Reshammiya vandalism

[edit]

Actually, the vandal user made two successive edits (see the history of the article). You undid only one of the edits. utcursch | talk 13:18, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:16, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
