Nomination of Villyan Bijev for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Villyan Bijev is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Villyan Bijev until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Zanoni (talk) 23:09, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Your latest edit at Icelandair

Hi Pontuskóngur, would you please mind giving some reasons why you reverted my improvement effort? I can understand that such a large re-writing creates criticism, but I had expected it to be of a limited extent, not just blatant reverting. In my opinion, the re-written article had been in a better shape than the version you reinstated:

• The content concerning Loftleiðir is included there, so no need to have it at Ielandair, too.
• The section on the volcano eruption was too detailed, so I shortened it (by removing general aspects of the eruption which are better suited for the main 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull article). That's the only part I deleted some parts.
• I updated the fleet (the 767 is gone according to the source), since you reverted it it's wrong now.
• I added a table with entry/withdrawal dates of aircraft types, which is a common feature at other airline articles.
• I added more incidents.

From this reasoning, I just cannot see a reason why a total reverting should be suitable. I appreciate your thoughts and comments. Best wished --AdAstra reloaded (talk) 11:08, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

edit: I started a discussion on this matter here. --AdAstra reloaded (talk) 11:25, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 9

Hi. When you recently edited Icelandair Group, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages VITA and IGS (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

File permission problem with File:Icelandair Group CEO, Björgólfur Jóhannsson.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Icelandair Group CEO, Björgólfur Jóhannsson.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} 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 on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 12:31, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation

Your upload of File:Birkir Holm.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

Disambiguation link notification for January 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kurt-Caesar Hoffmann, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Baltic.
