Replaceable fair use File:DianaVickersPromo.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:DianaVickersPromo.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. AnemoneProjectors 00:41, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:DianaVickersPromo.jpg
[edit]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 File:DianaVickersPromo.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. 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 as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — 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 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 that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ukexpat (talk) 14:19, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
Hey, Anemone! Yes, Postwar1 has been my profile since I've forgotten the pass to my older profile. I've been able to recover it, so, Postwar1 is not the one I use anymore.
- That's ok then. AnemoneProjectors 21:23, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
- To be safe, you should redirect the User:Postwar1 to User:Postwar and redirect User talk:Postwar1 to User talk:Postwar. — SpikeToronto 18:11, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi Postwar. You added some interesting information on the Re-Volt article at Nov 17th 2010. I've been talking a bit with one of the developers behind Re-Volt v1.2 and we're quite curious about this. Do you have any further information related to the purchase and We Go Interactive Co Ltd? Thank you very much, MeshQuake (talk) 20:41, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
Increasing image width to 256 pixels?
[edit]Hello, PostWar. I noticed that you have edited multiple articles and all instance you have increased the width of the images to 256 pixels. May I ask why? Fleet Command (talk) 07:12, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know. Well, should I undergo medical treatment? Postwar (talk) 08:16, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- Your medical treatments are none of my business; but your changes to Wikipedia are. I asked because I though 256px is a new consensus and wanted to know the details. but If you don't know why you are doing a specific edit, well, I say don't do it! Cheers.

Thank you. — SpikeToronto 18:07, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Problems with upload of File:16691.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:16691.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.
To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:06, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test on the page S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl worked, and it has been reverted or removed. However, if you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox instead. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Sir Lothar (talk) 07:16, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- This was not a test. The game itself is not based on any movie. It only contains ideas from the Strugatsky brothers' books. Postwar (talk) 10:13, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oh sorry for test template, then. As far the article IMHO it's loosely (but still) based on Andrei Tarkovsky's film Stalker, so the category is OK. Sir Lothar (talk) 12:39, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:16691.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:16691.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Speedy deletion nomination of Reactor Zero
[edit]You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
A tag has been placed on Reactor Zero requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you can assert the notability of the subject, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Salih (talk) 13:57, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Edit summaries
[edit]Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.
Optical disc
[edit]Is there a consensus to replace the names of the media such as DVD or CD ROM with the somewhat vague "Optical disc"? Your edit summaries are empty so you don't point to any discussion. Optical disc is too vague in my opinion when we are already describing the exact release media. Why would we want to change it to Optical disc? --Bill (talk|contribs) 20:36, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
- My edits made are actually based on guidelines. I didn't quite understand it myself, so I asked a few questions regarding this topic here. You can read through all the answers if you want. Postwar (talk) 11:34, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. Which guidelines are you following? --Bill (talk|contribs) 21:55, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- These, of course. Postwar (talk) 22:12, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- That's a large set of guidelines.. Can you tell me specifically where you read that you must use "optical disc" over the exact media. I am looking at the infobox guideline and it actually gives an example of Blu-ray disc and DVD-ROM. --Bill (talk|contribs) 22:34, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
- This section refers to a Template:Infobox video game (where it says "Infobox: Contents should adhere to the template documentation, see below for further information."). You should click on that link, then just head down to this section and search for the "media" field, which clearly explains what are the only values possible. That's what I'm following. I advise you to do the exact same thing, unless you disagree with it. Then feel free to start a discussion at the talk page if you want something to be improved.

I'm not going to argue the point on this one. I don't have much experience with video game articles, and I'm not a PC gamer (console man myself) so I don't know much about this cloud computing business or services like OnLive. My interest in the article is in relation to the Alien topic area as opposed to the topic of video games. I've just been intermittently fighting anons who add "OnLive" and "cloud computing" and the associated release dates to the infobox, since I asked at the VG project and found that there's a consensus against this, as it's not a platform. I figured that cloud computing was the medium associated with OnLive, which is why I removed it. I may have been mistaken in that regard. --IllaZilla (talk) 22:05, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Check out the optical disc information on this page and tell me if we need to generalize such info. Discuss the edit on mainstream game pages like that first, before you move on to smaller ones like Ninja Gaiden 3. Relax. --AnddoX (talk) 00:58, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, that article really needs to be improved. So thanks for the heads up. As to what you've said on-topic (what parameters we should put in a "media" field): it's already been discussed here. It's even been included in the guidelines (if you dare to read). Now if you've got a problem with this, go on, put up a fight. Postwar (talk) 01:29, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
A beer for Postwar!
[edit]This is in appreciation of the edit war we're having. You're my one true rival, I hope we both better our skills by duking it out! AnddoX (talk) 23:58, 24 August 2011 (UTC) |
Re OnLive inclusion for Just Cause 2 as a platform
[edit]NOT Vandalism; OnLive is an actually cloud gaming service (that's why under distribution it says "cloud computing" too. Look things up before edit! 50.98.171.95 (talk) 01:36, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Yo, Postwar. I got your back today and reverted vandalism by 50.98.171.95. (see above)
I look forward to seeing you in a future battle!
- OnLive is a legit platform; that was NOT vandelism. Children of the dragon (talk) 20:24, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- Legit platform? Since when? Postwar (talk) 21:22, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
- Go to www.onlive.com & try it out yourself. For someone who lacks such knowledge of the modern gaming technologies, you really shouldn't be thinking so highly of yourself.Children of the dragon (talk) 03:40, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- What are you you trying to prove? Do you think it was me who rejected the idea of OnLive being treated as a platform? You're wrong because there is general consensus regarding this. OnLive is not a gaming platform but a cloud computing service of which dozens exist (Gaikai, OTOY etc.). So what you're proposing here is like filling Steam and Origin in every video game they distribute. Postwar (talk) 09:07, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

I've just spotted. The other user moved the Talk page. Then posted on it. Because he's done that its impossible for the system to move it. It now needs an admin. Will start the WP:RM process to get it sorted out later. Will wait to see if the other user accepts the facts about WP:OWN. If he moves the article again a Requested Move debate will be the best way to go rather than start a move war. - X201 (talk) 11:03, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

[edit]You did not provide edit summaries, so it was unclear what you were doing. Personally, I'd prefer keeping the archived link of the original page that was cited. Plus the second time you changed the link, you did it in a different citation format than the rest of the article uses. I don't particularly mind if you change it back to the updated link (I still think linking to the original archived page is best for verifiability purposes), but if you do make sure the citation style matches the other weblink refs in the article (cite templates aren't used).

License tagging for File:TwosunsSpeced.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:TwosunsSpeced.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

ArbCom 2019 election voter message
[edit]December 2024
[edit]Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Conversion therapy, you may be blocked from editing. It is time to stop playing games. You need to stop edit warring to get your favourite anecdotes into the article. DanielRigal (talk) 19:43, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
Conversion therapy and MEDRS
[edit]Wikipedia takes its medical information seriously, and has requirements for reliable sources that go well beyond even our normal requirements for reliable sourcing of information -- see WP:MEDRS for more detail. The type of "someone said something on the Internet" sourcing that you're using to edit-war into Conversion therapy doesn't even meet our usual standards for reliable sources or for showing that something is worth including, much less our statements for medical claims. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 19:46, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
