Edit my draft please

I was creating User:Qwertyxp2000/30 Seconds (company) but abandoned it at some point. Do you want to expand my draft to make it good enough to be a true article? Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 05:50, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Close Up Logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Close Up Logo.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:47, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

The X Factor NZ

Please refrain yourself from editing and removing valid data on this page. If you continue to do so we will refrain you from editing. Thank you in advance, KiwiPino0507 (talk)

Hi @KiwiPino0507: what specifically do you disagree with me removing? Ollieinc (talk) 04:37, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Removal of Contestants pages on The X Factor NZ

Please stop removing the link to some contestants pages from the page (Lili, Dteve and Stevie. They are valid pages and the use of a link to a acts wikipedia page has been used throughout all X Factor franchises.

Please refrain from making nonconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at The X Factor (New Zealand series 2) with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism. Thank you. xfactornzedit (talk) 22:25, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

@Xfactornzedit: except those pages are still drafts; drafts should not be linked from the mainspace. Ollieinc (talk) 10:22, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Netherless. They are still valid links and page and should not be removed. It helps people who view that page find more infromation on those contestants. Please refrain yourself from removing them as it only creates a hassel for us. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xfactornzedit (talk • contribs) 10:31, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

@Xfactornzedit: if you wish to link the contestant pages from the X Factor pages, first publish them to the mainspace. Ollieinc (talk) 10:36, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Herbert Pickering

I thought I'd ask you as a person keenly interested in all things Waimakariri. Herbert Pickering was Minister of Education and died in 2009. There does not appear to be a trace of an online newspaper obituary around. Would you know why? Seems highly unusual. Schwede66 06:12, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, couldn't help you there. Ollieinc (talk) 09:55, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Kelvin Taylor Wikipedia

Disambiguation link notification for August 1

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rangiora High School, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page One News. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:03, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Is there any reason...

...for this edit? Stub templates always go after the categories! (see Wikipedia:Stub#How_to_mark_an_article_as_a_stub) Grutness...wha? 19:09, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Just so the stub template has two spaces before it. Didn't realise it had to go after everything else, sorry. Ollieinc (talk) 20:54, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

S'alright :) Grutness...wha? 01:34, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Archival

Hi, Ollieinc. I wondered if you were available to cover the archiving over the summer for me again over at Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects. If you can, let me know and I'll give you the details. Rcsprinter₁₂₃ (converse) @ 19:12, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

@Rcsprinter123: The Northern Hemisphere summer or Southern Hemisphere summer? Ollieinc (talk) 20:54, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot that you're on the other hemisphere. It's during August, my summer. Rcsprinter¹²³ (sermonise) @ 21:03, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Sure. What do I do? Ollieinc (talk) 21:12, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Same as last time - when the number of sections on the page is over 30, remove all the sections from the previous day or earlier which have been closed (with {{afc-c}}) to the correct archive (/2015-08). Like you did here. The first day you can begin is this Tuesday (4/08), and I'll be back two weeks later on the 14th. Any more questions? Rcsprinter₁₂₃ (drawl) @ 17:29, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

Nope, I should be fine thanks. Ollieinc (talk) 10:48, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Well thanks for the ONE ARCHIVE that you did. Good job that Happysailor was there to keep things ticking over. Rcsprinter¹²³ (shout) @ 14:09, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Please take action

it is pretty clear that you are attempting to utilize User:Ollieinc/Rangiora High School House Results for non wikipedia related purposes. Please convert your scorekeeping to something actually potentially encyclopedic or I will nominate the page for deletion. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:07, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

University Challenge

Hi Ollieinc - any reason for this change? With all the tables uncollapsed, the page is very long and cumbersome... Grutness...wha? 08:24, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
