Articles

Hi, Wikipedia content can be used by any person or organization for any purpose (including commercial) and republished by anyone without your permission (i.e. the Wikipedia content is used in Answers.com). If you are only giving permission to display your articles on Wikipedia unfortunately they'll have to be deleted. Arniep 14:45, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, if you own the copyright I don't think you need to add the tags at the bottom of the articles. Arniep 19:09, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to make a note on your site that its content is GFDL. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 21:29, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Talk pages

It's a matter of personal preference. I personally reply on the other person's talk page so they actually get the message. Others insist on not breaking up the conversation and reply on their own. To do this, however, you have to keep checking the other person's talk page which I find to be a pain. Either way works, though. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 22:28, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there!

Hello! I see you've experienced reincarnation. I remember you from your previous life ... missed you. I miss your former project too - it was a good project. Look forward to seeing you around here. David Cannon 22:56, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

I saw your David L. Aaron page - the material is pretty interesting. Have you any references? I clicked on http://www.doom-chronicle.co.uk/, but it took me to http://www.ecounties.co.uk - Enter Shropshire! Thanks, Crosbiesmith 23:07, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi you need to format images like this [[Image:abc.jpg|thumb|ABC]] you can also put left or 000px where 000 is a numb from 100-500 to resize the image. Regards Arniep 00:14, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

Redirects to non-existent pages, or redlinks, do not work, and are generally deleted fairly soon after they are created. You have created redirects to a couple redlinks; if you think the articles already exist on WP, you should double-check spacing and punctuation, since any minor change will mean that the link won't work. In general, though, redirects are a great thing, and I wish people would make more of them. Cheers, Mak (talk) 00:01, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I just didn't want your work to be for naught. Cheers, Mak (talk) 00:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Charles George Cabot

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Charles George Cabot, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Charles George Cabot. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Deleted article

Question on license

Hello, I'm curious if you have permission to license your contributions under GFDL - I am concerned by the tag I saw at the bottom of one of your articles saying that copyrighted text is included and used with permission. Is that the normal GFDL license? If so, it may be worthwhile to edit your template to indicate this. I should note though that if you wrote the text but did it for a newspaper, they may be able to claim copyright for your work, depending on the legal arrangements you have with them and the jurisdiction. --Improv 07:06, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of John James Holliday

An editor has nominated John James Holliday, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion.

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John James Holliday and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

James E. Robinson

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article James E. Robinson, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of James H. Wear

I have nominated James H. Wear, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James H. Wear.

Thank you for your time. --Michael White^T·C 15:47, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

References needed for article

in the article Frederic W. Lincoln, Jr. you provide a link to a weblog (guess its yours), but i couldnt find the source material on the blog. if there is a particular page where it exists, can you provide the link? I suspect a lot of the references for an article like this would be in print only geneologies, which i believe you can reference if you give title, pub date, etc. I dont believe your weblog is an appropriate reference. Now, if you could publish a book documenting the life stories of these people, that would be cool.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 15:52, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Doom-chronicle! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 0 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Ellison C. Grayson, Jr. - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
David G. Ball - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
David Acheson - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

William DeWitt Alexander

Hello, I just started an article on this fellow because I did some on his relatives already. Noticed you had the name on your page. Feel free of course to add, I will leave it in the "start" state. Is this the same one you have in mind? One question I had was of whom was he a namesake? One source mentions William DeWitt Hyde, but the William DeWitt Hyde in this article comes after him.

Proposed deletion of Ellison C. Grayson, Jr.

The article Ellison C. Grayson, Jr. has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced BLP of likely NN government functionary.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

File permission problem with File:Robinson, Pauline.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Robinson, Pauline.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Wikiacc (¶) 20:35, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
