Hello, Frombelow, and welcome to Wikipedia!
The thing is that it's not particularly relevant to the tournament. I'm sure other people will have an opinion on this, so I'll leave it up to them to decide whether or not that link is pertinent, but I personally don't think it is. – PeeJay 13:17, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, did you mean to upload File:Blikkiesdorp.JPG with an invalid license? Pictures on wikipedia should be free such as CC-BY or Public domain. You can change the license or upload again with a free license if it got the chop. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 14:13, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, Frombelow, welcome to WP! May I call your attention on the possible head-on confrontation between the principles of this great invention and yours? Particularly your declaration that you see WP “not as an impartial source of information, but as a space of contestation within which a battle of who owns history is being fought” has reminded me of Don Quixote tilting at Windmills, as there seems to be a hugh consensus here that WP is not a battleground. I hope you the best. --Zack Holly Venturi (talk) 20:19, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Blikkiesdorp.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:05, 11 July 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NW (Talk) 02:05, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi Frombelow, I don't think that it is appropriate to add to Mandela Park Backyarders and similar articles categories like "Urban studies and planning organisations" or "Human habitats". Their use in the context of a South African anti-eviction movement seems misleading. Not to mention that other categories like "Organisations based in South Africa" and "Social movements" are wholly redundant because "South African social movements" is already a subcategory of both of these. Adding an excessive number of categories only contributes to the visual clutter at the bottom of the page. I will not revert your edits, but I suggest you be more selective about the categories that are relevant in an article, and those that are not.

The article The Con Magazine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
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. Randykitty (talk) 11:57, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The Con Magazine 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/The Con Magazine 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 high-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 notice from the top of the article. Randykitty (talk) 11:18, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would ask that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on The Con Magazine. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Randykitty (talk) 11:21, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Death of Nqobile Nzuza may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 21:16, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

An article you recently created, Pablo Pinedo Boveda, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Thanks for uploading File:Western Cape Anti-Eviction Campaign Logo.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
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.
