Given your work with copyrights and the fact that I have indirectly mentioned you (by link, anyway, on the talk page), I wanted to let you know that I'm working on a potential WikiProject for Copyright Cleanup issues. I do not know if there is enough community interest in such a thing to make it worthwhile, but I figure it's worth a shot. :) I would greatly appreciate any feedback on the page that you can offer. In all its infant glory, it is here. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:46, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
I have made a few attemps at modifying the BTS Group AB entry. I compared my entry to what is in the IBM entry and do not feel that I have over stepped boundries on what is a press release versus an acceptable entry. Please advise. Thanks.

Sorry to interrupt you and I hope you don't mind if I ask you to take a very quick look at Anna's cleaned-up articles and see if they seem good to you. Could you also tell her what to do about the double redirects? I have no idea. Many thanks on behalf of the gastropod project for all of your hard work!
"Almost all of the 100+ Cs were fine. Five were strange. There, as usual, the black box told me to follow the link to the temp page. At the temp page, I encountered another black box directing me to a \temp\temp page. So I didn't do those because it would not let me save the page, I think. Crosseola bollonsi, Crosseola cuvieriana, Crosseola errata, Crosseola favosa, Cytora pallida. Thanks.

As an FYI, you can tag images like this (where the source is someone other than the uploader, and it is tagged with a free license tag but no evidence is provided) as ((subst:npd)), rather than bringing them to FFD. Stifle (talk) 09:30, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

1. Is linked to a copyrighted article 2. Is incorrect. Random House sued me. My resulting counter-claim was the only legal method to defend myself.

What is not neutral about this [Kids in Need Foundation] page?? Just because I'm writing about a non-profit organization does not mean that I don't have a neutral view here. Also, everything is referenced on the page - what do you want referenced more?Buhealex01 (talk) 14:12, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for listing some images at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2009 March 17. Did you know that there is a simpler and quicker option for dealing with some images like this? If an image is tagged with a free license tag and sourced to someone other than the uploader, but there is no evidence that the given source agreed to release the image under the specified license, you can tag the image as ((subst:npd)) ("No permission" in Twinkle). It's faster than PUF (7 days instead of 14) and doesn't require typing a rationale. Stifle (talk) 15:33, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, first of all, for reading and critiquing the article. We understand that the "Declaration" is rather, well, declarative and touches upon a number of controversial issues from the church's perspective. We also understand that Wikipedia is neither a soapbox nor a discussion forum for doctrine, dogma, or religious proclevities. The long, "Declaration" is included, however, because St. Edmund's is the first parish in Wisconsin to articulate these specific issues and the "Declaration" has been repeated in the press around the world. Over two hundred and fifty parishes have departed the Episcopal Church in the last five years but few of them have "laid out" there issues in a clear, concise document. The declaration has become a "stand along" document" that is quoted by a number of commentators and pundits on every possible side of the issues mentioned. So often in issues of contemporary church history the facts are outlined but the heart of the matter is not discussed. Each point in the Declaration has a reference in current Episcopal Church policy and has ramnifications for the wider Anglican Communion (70 million Christians) - we believe - therefore - that it is a unique contribution to the body of knowledge gathered in Wikipedia. We were not trying to "slip in" a statement of belief or policy, but we honestly, sincerely thought that the Declaration adds greatly to understanding the real issues that consume this segment of Protestantism. We are not suggesting that St. Edmund's Declaration will become part of the eternal body of famous church documents, but it is certainly quoted often in discussions from Africa to southeast Asia.

Thank you for the Welcome Whpq, as you can tell I am unsure of procedures however I don't remember removing users comments from the Articles for Deletion section; I did though, remove the notice from the article itself as I was under the mistaken impression that the issue had been resolved by the administrator who stated that Notability had been established. I thought that the issue was closed accordingly. No-one made any comments on the AfD page either so then I wad doubly sure. The Admin user involved has been very helpful and I was sure that the article complied with guidelines and could not understand why the 1st user Tarheel95 nominated the article twice for deletion in the first place, after Admin Werespeil user stated to 'Keep'. Tarheel seemed inexperienced perhaps so it was my mistake, shall know better next time. Any further advice on what I need to do next would be appreciated as not much interest from elsewhere.

On 03:57, 26 April 2009 (UTC) you said: "I've removed the message box you added to the article. The message does not belong in the article. If you wish, you may add that information to the article's talk page. However, a subject's unwillingness to have an article about herself on Wikipedia is irrelevant. -- Whpq"
I simply haven't done the research on the article because there has never been a need to..no one has ever said anything about the article in four years..and I've never really understood the Reference formatting. However, I devoted my morning to learning the formatting and got some inlines in the article. Coincidentally enough, the outside resources that I used were the exact same ones you found.
Anyways, I just thought you should know that it wasn't poor behavior..just lack of knowledge. I would have rather been notified that another wikipedian could have helped me rather than just nominated it for deletion. Flibbert (talk) 18:01, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
Please tell, what's wrong with my added link? Georgiani (talk) 14:02, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello, I'm novice in wikipedia. I haven't read any policies, but tried to add my links correctly to same themes. It is not spam, just an interesting links to Georgian web-site, where electronic editions, calligraphy works, manuscript book, orthodox icons and other intellectual works are submitted. Just think, in the "Calligraphy" article of wikipedia nothing told about georgian calligraphy. Also, nothing about manuscript books or modern Georgian iconography. After my links I plan to add some articles to wikipedia, because I found very poor info in some themes. Articles about Elena Akhvlediani, David Kakabadze, Niko Pirosmani etc. can become rich. I finished to add links and do not plan to add more, as I'm not a spammer. I thought every my link will be interesting for readers. If we follow any external link from wikipedia, we'll find sales pages at corresponding sites, but it is not a reason to delete this links from wikipedia and to call their authors - spammers. If you know the more correct way how to add my links to wikipedia, please advise me. I'm be glad to follow your instructions and see my links to many interesting Georgian web-sites at wikipedia. After I'll try to add some useful articles. Georgiani (talk) 08:53, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Instead of the two of us bickering in an AFD, I'll just ask what you see as the correct procedure to achieve the goal: the only thing permitted to exist at Anti-Love Song should be a redirect to the parent album, and any effort to undo that (short of a change in actual circumstances, such as it charting) should be prevented. Deletion followed installation of a protected redirect is the only way I know to achieve that goal.—Kww(talk) 17:20, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi. When I looked at the AfD, it appeared that "delete" and "keep" sides were fairly evenly split, with no compelling consensus to close definitively from either side; therefore, I defaulted it to "no consensus". If you decide to take it to DRV, that's certainly your...well, maybe "right" is the wrong word, but I think you get what I mean. I hope that clears things up a bit.

Inre this AfD, I have been able to source the article to show meeting WP:ENTERTAINER. Its late, and past my bedtime... but I believe per this that the article can easily be further expanded and sourced. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 08:56, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
Hiya. Copy-pasted from AMiB's talk page, as he said the exact same thing:
Fair enough! I was going on appearances of the website (shoddy AfD research, in my Wikipedia?). The website has a bit of a phony-baloney "Joomla Community" feel to it which gives an impression of a walled-garden sort of publishing house - not quite vanity, in that they do have editorial standards, but those standards basically amount to "is <author> one of 'ours'?". Like a publishing version of the Heritage Foundation or what have you. However, lest there be any confusion, I defer to your knowledge, and will strike the corresponding AfD statement strike that bit about striking the AfD bit, as the AfD has alreday closed.
Thank you very much for your help cleaning up my page ATG Stores. Thanks!

Thank you for understanding that I did it without any bad intention. What I don't understand is most of the people voted to "keep" Rodolfo Valentin article,why now is placed the tag that reads " written like an advertisement"...if you analize the text itself does not have references to advertisement. What probably creates that feeling is the reason that Rodolfo takes care of so many important people, very famous people, that makes it sound like an advertisement. Users should identify that.

I was comparing the words and phrases included in the article with the ones mentioned in the wikipedia peacock terms. "Their inclusion in this list does not mean they should be avoided, simply that they must be used appropriately" I think ( it is only my point of view) that the article is conforming between those parameters. Also, it has been corrected several times by long time editors and administrators of wikipedia back in 2007-- for what I see, since then,very few changes has been done at the article.68.161.91.72 (talk) 17:37, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Regarding the article on Mauser HSc, I was the original author, with two of the listed references being mine and accepted as exhibits on a recognized gun site.
In addition to the arbitrary revision made in wording and text sequence, here are a few key errors:
- Transitional changes during the wartime production of this pistol have been noted as variations which are identified as falling within specific serial number ranges. The incorrect revision states that these variations fall within specific Werhmacht purchase orders which is simply not the case. The term Wehrmacht is incorrect as the pistols focused upon for the bulk of this unfactual revision were for the Army(Heer)procured pistols. - The commercial proofs on these pistols are not a Crown/N, but an Eagle/N (factory firing proof) which superceded the former proof by 1940 when production of this pistol began. This would be very clear to anyone holding or knowing anything about the wartime HSc pistols.
There are text re-arrangements, subjective word changes and omissions from the original article. In view of the stringent requirements by Wikipedia, I simply cannot understand how this unresearched and erroneous revision could have been accepted. Hochadler (talk) 02:13, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
I really would appreciate your help. I see you moved my comments to the Mauser HSc page. How does the dialogue continue now? And with whom? It's not an "editing war", I'm simply trying to correct an incorrect previous revision. Why didn't that reviser have to justify/prove his revision? Hochadler (talk) 00:02, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
The head of the article reads: "This article may contain inappropriate or misinterpreted citations that do not verify the text. Please help improve this article by checking for inaccuracies. (help, talk, get involved!) (July 2009)" I am trying to help...get involved, but every time I add a good legitimate link, from a good source like "The New York Times" it is removed, why?
For example in the parraph I am trying to add, I am showing as a verification for the Long Island Spa,an article from "Fox news", with comments about the Spa.
In television shows, I am adding the link to TELEMUNDO CHANNEL 47.
As an actor, I am adding as a link for verification an article from "The New York Times", reading parraphs as: ON the sweeping stone terrace of his Hewlett Bay Park home, Rodolfo Valentin was playing Rodolfo Valentin, flamboyant hairdresser and money launderer.
The parraph I am trying to add reads:
In 1984, Rodolfo immigrated to Long Island, New York and opened Rodolfo Valentin salon & Spa[1] He was featured in magazines and television shows such as Telemundo [2] and as an actor, starring in the role of hairdresser, in the independent movie directed by filmmaker Hustin Hova[3]

It is a fact that the text for article National Institute of Nutrition, Hyderabad was largely based on its homepage, it is not a copyright violation, it can be termed as a mild form of replication based on a Primary source. Anyhow the article has to be based on a verifiable referable source and as per wiki policy no original research is allowed. Therefore this article about this institute was based largely on the information provided by NIN site and ICMR homepage. Also please note that no images was used by me in this article, the image about Pasteur Institute is taken from Wiki Commons.

I'm going to start an investation but first just want your second opinion, (An unbiased quick look, my judgement may be clouded).
Just suspicious because the two other accounts Susy parker and Nicole reutman both were created within seven minutes of each other and have really only edited on the Rodolfo Valentin and the Sofia's Hair 4 Health articles.

"References needed" is alright, I just thought the Wikify tag implied that plus the fact that the prose needed to be "encyclopedified."

I was recently engaged in a edit war on the Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari with a particular user, User:Rob lockett. I followed your edits to the Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani in which you removed material this same user copied from another website. I then realized that this user was doing the same thing on the page I mentioned, Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari; he copied the material he added in his edits from this website: [[2]]. It seems obvious that this would fall under the same rule, however, I am hesitant to remove it myself because the outcome of that edit war was that we would discuss matters first on the talk page. It seems that this user's section should be removed without discussion. What do you think? Supertouch (talk) 14:22, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
“ | They also refute the claim that al-Ibanah was his final book. The scholar al-Kawthari states:
The Ibana was authored at the first of his return from Mu‘tazilite thought, and was by way of trying to induce [n: the Hanbali literalist] Barbahari (d. 328/940) to embrace the tenets of faith of Ahl al-Sunna. Whoever believes it to be the last of his books believes something that is patently false. Moreover, pen after pen of the anthropomorphists has had free disposal of the text—particularly after the strife (fitna) that took place in Baghdad [n: after A.H. 323, when Hanbalis ("the disciples of Barbahari") gained the upper hand in Baghdad, Muslims of the Shafi‘i madhhab were beaten, and anthropomorphism became the faith (‘aqida) of the day [4]]—so that what is in the work that contradicts the explicit positions transmitted from Ash‘ari by his own disciples, and their disciples, cannot be relied upon [5]. This is borne out by hadith master (hafiz) Dhahabi[6], as well as Ibn ‘Asakir’s Tabyin kadhib al-muftari. |

…are terribly unhelpful, since they just sit there for years. I've seen tags dating back to 2005 on this wiki, because nobody can ever be arsed to fix the article; one big pile of "Nobody cares".

It is true Andayil is one of the promiment families in Perevumba, palakkad. Their contribution to the preservation of culture, values, tradition is tremendous. I am not from Andayil, but I know about this family very well. Please don't delete this article.

Hello
I am from Ramakrishnan from Peruvamba, Palakkad. It is true that Andayil is one of the popular families here. The world has to know that families like this also exist. This family is a source of inspiration for other families. Everyone likes to have alliances with this family. So, it is requested that this page be preserved.

I have a question pertaining to material copied from websites. You helped me previously in a related instance, however now my question is broader. On several pages I have edited I have found in more than a few instances that entire sections, and sometimes entire pages, have been copied from an unrefernced website. As I am relunctant to remove an entire page, so I have begun, on a few pages, to reference that material from the original source book - that is, if it seems worth keeping. What would the Wikipedia policiy be regarding this? Am I am wasting my time trying to salvage these pages? Supertouch (talk) 00:32, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

The info provided on the salafi(now ghair muqallid)was not neutral,even the name means salafi means early muslims and theire followers i.e. Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat.So i made it neutral.Those who call themselve "salafi" today,are almost entirely known as ghair muqallids(they use the term themselves).So it's wrong to neutral any article?It's not a reason for banning me.Where were you when wahabis moved the article Ahle Sunnat wal jamaah to brailwi and edited the article saying that the muslims commite shirk etc.?Will you ban them first?Please don't disturb the neutrality of wikipeadia by getting side of wahabis,those who has started litratuar terrorism on wikipedia by writing against islam and telling muslims as mushrik(ALLAHu AKBAR!).Please reply me as soon as you can. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Coercorash (talk • contribs) 14:14, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

I disagree since at least three different books sharing the same title are mentioned on this disambiguation page. Only one of them is represented by a created article, ok, but the two others are just waiting to be created. Disambiguation is for different things sharing the same name, with or without a corresponding created article. It seems obvious to me... not to you? Kintaro-san (talk) 19:44, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Edit: one thing more, I just noticed that you removed the italic type from the role-playing game title... but I'm quite sure about this: non-traditional games aren't written in the italic type. But games that are personal works, with a copyright and so on, are typed in the italic... Chess and poker: not in titalic. Monopoly, Ars Magica, Donkey Kong etc.: in italic. Am I wrong ? Salute!

The sad part of the story is they are only accepting 46 test patients.

Hi Whpq, this material came right from my source Novelos Therapeutics.
Actually the site www.glutoxim.ru is a sister site and they borrowed this info directly from Novelos since they speak Russian and needed an english translation.
As you stated, it "appears" and that is all appears.
Now, kindly correct your removal.
If you require further evidence I could have Dr Pazoles or Harry Palmin the CEO of Novelos Therapeutics verify this statement? Harry Palmin helped me with this literature.

Hi, what should be the right tag? What I see it has wrong is that it starts giving a history of money in general instead of talking about the distinction between cash and money in general, about the etymology of the word... etc. The ideas of the last two sentence are part of this and I guess should be placed earlier. franklin 16:33, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi again, I forgot to link the article i am talking about. It is cash. I read in the wikification project that a point for using the tag is "No specific lead paragraph and/or has no section headings". There is a leading little sentence but part of the leading content is far bellow. And the history of money (that doesn't have much emphasis in cash in particular) is not given in an independent section. It kind of fits, I guess!? Maybe what you had in mind is that there is a more appropriate tag for it? franklin 17:04, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for explaining the de-prod. I'll let the article develop for a while, maybe try to clean it up, see how it develops. I don't think that a Fullbright scholarship, or a Rhodes for that matter, are enough on their own for notability. Perhaps though, more sources will emerge.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Lisduff (County Cork), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Lisduff. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

I see no purpose, or indeed support by policy or guideline, for removing the name of the state and nation from the above stub - you may be surprised how many people are unaware where Fresno is - and even the specifics of the area, since it indicates the notability of the subject (a neighbourhood of a couple of thousand against tens of thousand). Not everyone wishes to click the links, either. Under the circumstances I have replaced the State and nation details to the article. LessHeard vanU (talk) 17:39, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Dear Wikipedia Staff,
I am very depressed because I was facing problem with my article “Dawood Group”. I have tried a number of times to update my page. But every time revert changes take place only because somebody has put the information about my page. Below is the Group current information which is available on Wikipedia.
The Dawood Group is a leading Pakistani holding company[1] founded by Ahmed Dawood,[2] tracing its origins back to the early 20th century. The group owns companies ranging from fertilizer, textiles, finance[3] and computers.[4] The group has been accused of poor labour practices and using violence and torture to repress organized workers[5].
I have tried a number of times to update it but all in vain.
1. If Group is accused of poor labour practices then how should we start Dawood Hercules a joint venture 2. Why Group starts a not for profit organization named “Dawood Foundation” the largest charitable organization with the assets of 50 Millions Pkr 3. Why Group donate to Al-Shifa Trust Hospital 10.5 million Pkr for a modern complex hospital (http://www.memon-world.net/welfare_inst4.htm) 4. Why Group starts Dawood Engineering College 5. Why Group starts Dawood Public School for Girls 6. Why should our Chairman would be Honorary Consulate of Italy in Lahore 7. Why should Chairman of Dawood Group runs PPAF (Pakistan Poverty Alliviation Fund) www.ppaf.org.pk
Dawood Group is example of Best labour practices not violence. Below are some links from other sources which will prove our Group Status.

I humbly request you to make a brief research about Dawood Group. Dawood Group a well reputable organization internationally and nationally. The Current information on Wikipedia is damaging our impression worldwide. Kindly remove the current information and allow us to put proper reliable and trustworthy information on Wikipedia. I would be grateful.
Best Regards Kashif Nazir

Hi Whpq. I see you're an experienced editor, and I saw that the person from Dawood had tried to contact you as well. Do you have an idea of what is going on at the Dawood Group article?
