Orphaned non-free image File:Mopilot logo.gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Mopilot logo.gif. 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:21, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

Note on your edits for the backlog drive

Hi Turtlecrown! Just a note about the edits you made - not all search engines have the same search operators as Google. Yes, most participants will probably use Google but I, for one, don't and presumably a chunk of other people won't either. The instructions were written (not by me) with the specifications that they're for Google because they do only work for Google searches. I don't want to revert your edits because I think there's some good stuff in but I would encourage you to put back the places where Google is mentioned as such. Let me know what you think and if you want to include instructions for search engines like Bing, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, etc. Thanks! Kazamzam (talk) 14:14, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello! As far as I can tell I didn't remove Google from anywhere, I just grouped the two existing explicitly-Google tips ('If searching on Google, use "" (double quotes)...' and 'For Google, use - (ie. dash)...') under the main bullet 'On Google and some other search engines:' with "and some other search engines" being my addition. They still specify that they're for Google but if you think the "some other" part is too broad/misleading I could remove that? Turtlecrown (talk) 22:45, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
My apologies! I was looking at the edit on my phone (first mistake) and the preview of the changes was limited. Looks good now on desktop. Thanks so much and sorry for the mix-up! Kazamzam (talk) 20:35, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
No worries! Turtlecrown (talk) 06:37, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
