Aerophones
[edit]I noticed that you recently added the category of Aerophones to many instruments. I believe they should be removed, since these instruments are already in more specific sub-categories of aerophones (as they should be). Could you check your edits and make the appropriate adjustments? Thanks. - Special-T (talk) 22:08, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Again - PLEASE!! You are adding categories to instruments already listed in the proper sub-categories. Please clean up these edits, or at least stop doing this - others have to take the time to clean this up. Thank you. - Special-T (talk) 23:24, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
I see that you created this category and later blanked the page. A faster way to delete a category you've created yourself is to place {{db-author}} on the page. This tag attracts the attention of an administrator who can perform the deletion for you. Contact me if you have questions about this. Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 05:46, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I wonder if you would like to explain your new category schemes at the Composers Project? I think it's important that everybody knows about your work. Thanks. --Kleinzach 04:31, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- I can reedit, I have observed that in the English wiki you separate composers from song-writers.--Opus88888 (talk) 04:47, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- That's right. It's a big change so please explain it all at the Composers Project. --Kleinzach 04:49, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Cuban folk music
[edit]- Well, for the purposes of the template, since all other countries have put their main article as the link, you had best do the same. Link to Music of Cuba. The history of Cuban music does not fit the folk music genre well, though 'traditional music' seems a better label. Now, there is a not very good Cuban folk music article, and a folk music category in WP (see bottom of article). If you want to improve the Cuban folk music article, you'ld best read Alejo Carpentier's Music in Cuba publ in La Habana 1945, English transl. 2001. There's also a lot of historical material in Music of Cuba, but it's put under other headings. Plus a lot of references: I bought a whole boxful of Cuban studies on their music when I wisited Havana and Santiago de Cuba: I never imagined they might have a practical use. Then along came Wikipedia! Macdonald-ross (talk) 17:48, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
"Corn Tortilla"
[edit]In January you moved Tortilla (Mexico and Central-America) to Corn Tortilla with the comment "Short term". I think this important article has now been at a miscapitalization for far too long. Thoughts, plans? -- Infrogmation (talk) 16:53, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
- I went ahead and moved it to corn tortilla and moved the article previously there to an orphan fork to be merged, see Talk:Corn tortilla. Cheers, -- Infrogmation (talk) 17:24, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of of William Cepeda
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on William Cepeda, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Human.v2.0 (talk) 01:28, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
- OK, starting to head in a better direction, but please do not remove the speedy tag and instead leave {{hangon}} if need be; that way unless a few references get in there to validate a lack of copyright violation and admin can make the call themselves. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 01:36, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Opus88888,
It's good to see you taking an active interest in British food products.

Speedy deletion nomination of Self-taught persons

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
Thank you.
A tag has been placed on Self-taught persons, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article that does not provide sufficient context to identify its subject. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Eeekster (talk) 07:09, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
I do not believe we need to add this category to MSS. Probably every singer and carnatic musician can play the Tambura, but I doubt many are "professional" tambura players. I also feel that this whole category could be dropped, as the skill for playing a Tambura is minimal and we do not have awards for being a Tambura player, etc. VasuVR (talk, contribs) 15:27, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Amritvani
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Amritvani requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ▒ Wirεłεşş ▒ Fidεłitұ ▒ Ćłâşş ▒ Θnε ▒ ―Œ ♣Łεâvε Ξ мεşşâgε♣ 19:08, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Tortillas.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Tortillas.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILYsock(TALK) 21:30, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

The article Antonio Soller has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. magnius (talk) 21:52, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Zainidin Imanaliev
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Zainidin Imanaliev 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

YouTube videos
[edit]Hi, please remember that you can't link to YouTube videos that are copyright infringements (per WP:ELNEVER) - I removed the video link for R. Visweswaran. I also think you don't need to link Category:Indian musicians for articles like this, because Category:Carnatic instrumentalists and Category:Hindustani instrumentalists are subcategories so the top level category becomes redundant. Hekerui (talk) 09:13, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I noticed you changed Jew to Jaw. Were they all wrong? Ocaasi t | c 03:37, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, this probably needs to go on the talk page, but Wikipedia uses common language as well as specific language. So, even if there's no particular connection, if there's a widespread use of the term Jew's harp, we're in a more gray situation. Why do you think we should override common usage in this case? Do you think the article title should be changed as well? There's a way we can get feedback called requested moves, let me know if you think it would be useful. Ocaasi t | c 14:14, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
- I find it rather surprising that Jew's harp is the common name, since it just doesn't sound very modern or politically correct. This 'would' make for a good discussion on the article talk page. You might consider leaving an note there explaining the changes you made, and why, musicology-wise, they make sense. Ocaasi t | c 14:25, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Your edits at Carnatic music
[edit]A few issues:
- The previous consensus at this page was that artist names should not be mentioned, as there is too much dispute as to the order in which artist names are to be mentioned and the images to be used at this article. Therefore, please do not introduce such images into the article.
- The two other sentences you are attempting to introduce in the lead section do not appear to be appropriate to what that section of the article is designed for. Also, there would need to be some coverage of this material elsewhere in the article, but the issue is it should not be given undue weight and it should not consist of purely synthesised content. I have reverted your edit, so you will need to discuss this before it can be reintroduced into the article. Ncmvocalist (talk) 10:08, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of WIS International
[edit]Hello Opus88888,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged WIS International for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Gbawden (talk) 09:11, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Johnny Vazquez
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
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 Johnny Vazquez 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 person or group of people, 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. 舎利弗 (talk) 06:24, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

List of recorder music
[edit]Hi Opus. I'm about to comment out the changes you made to List of recorder music because it is a "list of Wikipedia articles on music written expressly for the recorder". I can see why you added van Eyck, but as yet there is no article on Der Fluyten Lust-hof. I originally meant the list just to point to articles on music for the recorder, not to be a list of composers who have written for the recorder. Do you think this should be widened, and if so can you undertake it? I have neither the knowledge nor time to generate a comprehensive list. If you would like to take it forward, perhaps we need to give some thought to changing the lead, and possibly dividing pieces from composers? I don't wish to be accused of WP:OWN, so a consistent approach from someone else would be welcome. BTW, user:Oiyarbepsy the added {{unreferenced}} tag which I think is quite wrong in a list and merely distracts readers. I did challenge him on his talk page, but he seems quite convinced that he is right and will never be proved wrong. As the creator I felt it inappropriate to remove the tag from a reviewer. Perhaps you would care to consider the matter and only if you disagree with him change it. Regards, Martin of Sheffield (talk) 23:31, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
- User talk:Oiyarbepsy/2014#List of recorder music is the discussion in question, where I said: "However, if lists are exempt from needing sources or if you have a third opinion, I'm willing to be proven wrong, but only if I am wrong, which never happens :)". The I'm-never-wrong comment I thought was an obvious joke. Again, Martin, if you can show I'm wrong, I'm perfectly willing to remove the tag. Also, my personal opinion, red links are okay on this page. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 00:54, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
- No prob. Hope to create the article Der fluyen in the future. --Opus88888 (talk) 02:06, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Conjunto huasteco1.jpg
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:Conjunto huasteco1.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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 16:27, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi there! I'm curious about the page you created on the philosophical concept of unicity. In looking for other sources to flesh out the article, the only references to unicity as a philosophical concept I am coming across are those attributed to the medieval muslim philosopher Averroes, generally referred to as Averroes unicity thesis. The basic premise is that all human intelligence is part of one unified intellect, which is entirely different from the concept as presented in the article as it stands.Even the spanish language citation that you've provided doesn't seem to support exactly what you've written. I'm not a philosopher (just a very amateur student of philosophy), so before making any changes I thought I would check with you for clarification. Many thanks nerdgoonrant (talk) 15:39, 14 December 2016 (UTC)

The article Saoco has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
The article, as it stands today, is simply an acknowledgment that the drink exists. I think that it requires a bit more in terms of sourcing.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Capt. Milokan (talk) 11:48, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from La Calavera Catrina to Skull mexican make-up (your addition has since been removed). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content.

Copyright problem: Ghulam Hassan Sofi
[edit] Hello Opus88888! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Ghulam Hassan Sofi, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted material from other websites or printed works. This article appears to contain work copied from https://web.archive.org/web/20120324054246/http://www.groundreport.com/Arts_and_Culture/Melody-king-of-Kashmir-Ghulam-Hassan-Sofi-remember_2/2911690, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate your contributions, copying content from other websites is unlawful and against Wikipedia's copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are likely to lose their editing privileges.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
- Have the author release the text under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License (CC BY-SA 4.0) by leaving a message explaining the details at Talk:Ghulam Hassan Sofi and send an email with confirmation of permission to "permissions-en
wikimedia.org". Make sure they quote the exact page name, Ghulam Hassan Sofi, in their email. See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If you hold the copyright to the work: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en
wikimedia.org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License and GNU Free Documentation License, and note that you have done so on Talk:Ghulam Hassan Sofi. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted "under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC BY-SA), version 4.0", or that the work is released into the public domain, or if you have strong reason to believe it is, leave a note at Talk:Ghulam Hassan Sofi with a link to where we can find that note or your explanation of why you believe the content is free for reuse.
It may also be necessary for the text to be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries for a template of the permissions letter the copyright holder is expected to send.
Otherwise, you may rewrite this article from scratch. If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Ghulam Hassan Sofi saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.

The article Ball pump needle has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Source does not indicate notability
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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.

Tortita
[edit] Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you created or have recently made significant changes to, Tortita (Mexican food), may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for pages, so it has been blanked and redirected to Fritter#Mexico. Three typical reasons for this are that: (1) the article's subject appears to fail our notability guidelines; (2) the article is unsourced; or (3) the sources used in the article are unreliable. The page's history is preserved and it is possible to restore the article: If you believe that this page should remain included on Wikipedia or that this action was taken in error, then you may revert the edit that blanked and redirected the page.
Wikipedia:Your first article has more information about creating articles, and you may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. Dclemens1971 (talk) 16:00, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
