Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. The Tom 22:22, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked for twenty-four hours for violating 3RR. SushiGeek 22:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

{{unblock|Please unlock me because I didn't known that rule. I'm new and I haven't had time today to read rules.}}"

Should have expired by now, but saying you didn't know about a rule when you've a warning about it just above from 30 minutes before the block seems somewhat inconsistent. --pgk^(talk) 07:25, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

When you get new messages you get a large banner saying you have new messages on every page until you click the link to view them. If you choose to ignore messages, then it is your responsibility if they contained something important. --pgk^(talk) 19:09, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mitrovica

Please do not change the name of Mitrovica, Kosovo to its Serbian name. Please do not use Wikipedia for activism on Kosovo like you did by adding the word "Serbia" to the page on Mitrovica. Please discuss on the talk page before you make edits. Klungel (talk) 15:05, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism on Mitrovica, Kosovo

Please stop your disruptive editing. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Klungel (talk) 21:00, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What's up Klugel :)

I don't now who's vandal here you or me? :) You are changing officially recognized international name of this place to another name of your language.

Best regards to you my friend,

--S T E V A N ^(talk) 13:51, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You keep changing the English name in the Serbian name. You refuse to participate in the discussion on the talk page of the article on Mitrivoca, Kosovo. In addition, you disrespect the neutral point of view polici of Wikipedia, changing the word "Kosovo" to "Kosovo, Serbia". Stop that. Be open for reason. Be neutral. Do not start edit wars.

Warning on Balkan related articles

In a 2007 arbitration case, administrators were given the power to impose discretionary sanctions on any user editing Balkans-related articles in a disruptive way. If you engage in further inappropriate behaviour in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. Thank you.

License tagging for Image:MortoiSerbi.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:MortoiSerbi.JPG. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:07, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:FSS small.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:FSS small.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:22, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:FSS small.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:FSS small.png. 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).

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Megatrend University, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 07:04, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Logo-left-en.png

Thanks for uploading File:Logo-left-en.png. 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.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:09, 23 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:MortoiSerbi.JPG

Thanks for uploading File:MortoiSerbi.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 {{permission 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. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 11:49, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
