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 Itschner Award requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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 or image 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 your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Engineer Branch (United States)

[edit]

I have never heard of an Engineer Branch (United States) as opposed to the United States Army Corps of Engineers. So I've put it up the article up for deletion. Comments welcome. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:02, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Hawkeye7. Please don't delete it and remove that tag immediately. This is a common misconception that was erroneous all over Wikipedia pages concerning the US Army and Engineers. The US Army Corps of Engineers is a branch of the US Army, like Infantry, Aviation, Field Artillery, Adjutant Corps, etc. As a branch, it overseas both combat and construction Engineering in the US Army. There is another organization, also called the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) which is a predominantly civilian organization which manages the navigable waterways of the United States and also manages large construction contracts for the army. The organization USACE, is overseen by the Engineer Branch of the US Army. It is confusing, hence the misconceptions.

See this link from the institute of Army Heraldry: http://www.tioh.hqda.pentagon.mil/UniformedServices/Branches/engineers.aspx and then look at the USACE logo (United States Army Corps of Engineers ) to see that these organizations are distinct. USACE, the Engineering organization, is not the component of the US Army which is responsible for breaching or laying minefields and constructing vehicle fighting positions in combat. This is self-evident when you read the US Army Corps of Engineers Wikipedia page. You should remove your tag from the Engineer Branch article immediately before it is deleted and this misconception is perpetuated. Thanks!WIKI1Q2W3E4R (talk) 14:49, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The tag is only to let editors know that the article is at AfD. It does not cause the article to be deleted. If you attempt to remove it, it will be restored by the Snooty Bot. Join the discussion at AfD. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:31, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi - an end result of this is that the {{about}} template at the top of the USACE page is circular and points back to itself. JMOprof (talk) 17:32, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed it. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:24, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hugh Mott, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fort Leonard Wood (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.

Removing AfD template

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Engineer Branch (United States). Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. This is an automated message from a bot about this edit, where you removed the deletion template from an article before the deletion discussion was complete. If this message is in error, please report it. Snotbot  t • c »  15:36, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Main-Radweg Map.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Main-Radweg Map.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 13:51, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Roman Monuments, Cathedral of St. Peter and Church of Our Lady in Trier UNESCO World Heritage Site, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CLT (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

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 La Pulquería requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Widr (talk) 18:46, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article La Pulquería has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence of notability

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

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.
