DYK nomination of Paul-Édouard Delabrièrre
Hello! Your submission of Paul-Édouard Delabrièrre at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Yoninah (talk) 23:15, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
In order to qualify for DYK, the article needs to be nominated within 7 days of creation, or expanded 5 times and then nominated within 7 days of the beginning of the expansion. You missed the 7-day creation deadline by nominating it more than 3 1/2 weeks after creation. Starting on July 19, the day before you began the expansion, the character count was 2,697 characters. As of right now, the count is 3,763 characters. You would need to add another 9,722 characters by July 27 in order to qualify for a 5x expansion. Yoninah (talk) 20:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
- Wow, okay. I guess I'm done with Delabrierre. Thanks for taking the time to answer me. --68.227.109.52 (talk) 20:42, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
ScotlandsPeople
Hello! You should have received an email from me regarding your application for ScotlandsPeople access - can you please fill out the form or let me know if you didn't receive it? thanks, Nikkimaria (talk) 03:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
- I don't recall receiving anything from you, Nikkimaria. Can you send it again please? Perhaps it was snagged by my spam filter. --♥Golf (talk) 03:37, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for July 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1880 Open Championship, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Andrew Kirkaldy. 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.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 08:58, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

A few features that you might find helpful:

- Important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, writing contests, and article logistics.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a set of guidelines that cover article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
- If you're looking for something to work on, there are many articles that need attention, as well as a number of review alerts.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the project coordinators or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 01:42, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
Possibly unfree File:Bert Hodson Cigarette Card.PNG
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Bert Hodson Cigarette Card.PNG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you object to the listing for any reason. Thank you. Nick—Contact/Contribs 18:07, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reminder, Nick. I wasn't positive about this file myself. Even though what I've uploaded is a copy of what I already own, that doesn't change the fact that a copyright may be claimed. If you think it is better that it be deleted, please do so. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Besides, it is a rather poor quality image anyway. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 20:32, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
Page patrolled?
Thanks once again for all your edits, this time to the George Trayser article. You have a knack for knowing what will improve an article, and you just jump in and fix it! Us contributors are very lucky to have such a talented and vigorous editor.
I received an email that the George Trayser article had been "patrolled". Is that something that I should be concerned about? I didn't see that they had made any changes. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Is there something I should be doing that I am not doing? I just don't know what a "patrol" is.
Thanks Dcj3616 (talk) 14:16, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
- "Patrolled" is nothing to worry about. That simply means that a Wiki admin has noticed it and is watching it. Nearly every single article on Wikipedia is patrolled. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 19:26, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
Cite Templates not working
This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can , contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse. |
I am noticing that the cite templates (cite web; cite news; cite book; cite journal) are not working. Is this an issue on my computer or a Wiki software issue?
--EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 04:26, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- Probably on your computer. I see them, at least here. You could upload a WP:screenshot, maybe that would help. --Edgars2007 (talk/contribs) 06:12, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for answering my call for assistance. This is a screenshot of the issue I am having with the Citation Templates.
File:Cite Template not working.PNG
- Yep, I'm seeing the same issue. It's already been raised on Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 139#Cite tool fails. Mdann52 (talk) 07:25, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oh, now it seems logical :) I thought, that you don't see them in the text, not that you can't insert them :) --Edgars2007 (talk/contribs) 07:29, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- Yes sir, this is a major problem. I hope it gets repaired quickly. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 07:36, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Alex Smith, golfer.PNG
Thank you for uploading File:Alex Smith, golfer.PNG. 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 07:46, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
Can you check something, The photo is an ALEC smith, Alternate name?Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
- He was also called Alec, so Alex Smith and Alec Smith are one and the same person. In a lot of the old newspapers, he is called Alec. I suppose something to that effect should be added to the article. I will find a citation for this and add it to the Alex Smith article. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 08:17, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

If you find time for it, I would appreciate your help with any improvements you could do at the article Christopher Wilder and Ester Textorius. Thank you.--BabbaQ (talk) 19:57, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

- Thank you so much for your help so far! Much appreciated. If you are bored sometime and want something to edit you can take a look at Forest Sami. An article I created and I think it still is something missing. I can not really say what it is but it feel incomplete somehow. So any help would be appreciated, but no hurry. Thanks again.--BabbaQ (talk) 00:16, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

- A few days ago I created an article Joan Ferguson (fictional character), it is about probably one of Australian televisions best known characters of the eighties.

- Thank you, Sfan00 IMG. I have added some additional explanation about this photo on the summary. Don't know if it will suffice but I certainly hope so. If not, do your thing and remove the photo. The picture that was so graciously provided to me is not of any financial value to Deconamic, as she is trying to sell this statue on eBay. Once the item sells, the photo will likely be deleted from her computer. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 08:45, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
Hello! Thank you for taking initiative in getting permission to use this photo on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, the current information provided is insufficient to allow its use. Freely licensed media on Wikipedia must allow works to be use for commercial purposes, as well as modifications. The email you provided in the description of the photo does not address these issues. If you can get the owner of this photo to license it that way (see further information at file copyright tags), then the issue will be resolved. — ξxplicit 02:13, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

- Sfan00 IMG, please delete this file immediately if you would please. Picture is probably from around 1935, not as old as what I thought. It could be earlier but I just don't have any proof. I have already taken it down from the article for Ernest Whitcombe. Thanks, --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 09:17, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:ApawamisScoreCard.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:ApawamisScoreCard.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Replaceable fair use File:ApawamisScoreCard.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:ApawamisScoreCard.JPG. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
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) 21:10, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Image Sourcing
Thanks. can you conisder updating other uploads (so Commons can use them?) Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:59, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, as I can find time I will add sourcing to all the pictures I've uploaded. Thank you for your good work on pointing out issues with uploaded images. --EditorExtraordinaire (talk) 09:03, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
Usual sourcing enquiery, but from a quick google, the T Hodge, you've noted here would appear to be a notable illustrator on Golfing topics in their own right. Maybe you could consider doing some more research with view to a basic stub article at the very least. (In terms of the image, it would be nice to have a date of death to confirm it's out of copyright). Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:09, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi, if you want a challenge you could help me improve the article about Eva Nazemson which is up for possible deletion. She is a known name is Swedish tv and celebrity world. And has presented several game shows and participated in such. The article is below standard as present I admit but deleting a notable article because of that feels wrong. So if you find time for it and want a challenge you could take a look at what can be done. Thanks.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:58, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Better source request for File:JohnShippen-c.1899.JPG
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:22, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

If I need other pictures I'll have my brother upload them himself. If those or my newly uploaded pictures get deleted, I will retire from Wikipedia and never return. Thanks for your help and advice.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Bernard Nicholls story.pdf
A tag has been placed on File:Bernard Nicholls story.pdf requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file that is not an image, sound file or video clip (e.g. a Word document or PDF file) that has no encyclopedic use.
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 "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.

Non-free rationale for File:Myopia-Hunt-Club-Scorecard.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Myopia-Hunt-Club-Scorecard.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

File source problem with File:Old.Golf.Balls.JPG
Thank you for uploading File:Old.Golf.Balls.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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:09, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

Thomas Hodge
I notice that the article says "Hodge died in 1907 in St Andrews, Scotland." but ref 1 says "When Hodge left St Andrews in 1893" which seems inconsistent. Nigej (talk)
- Actually, Nigej, I am very much "assuming" he died in St Andrews but don't know that for a fact. It's a likely spot since he lived there. Perhaps you can do some digging on your end and come up with something (maybe the probate records you often cite has something on him). Feel free to edit this article as much as you'd like as I always enjoy having your input which is always informative and interesting. --♥Golf (talk) 08:49, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- There is a Thomas Hodge died in Hampstead in 1907 aged 80: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2NBK-63P . There is a Thomas Hodge here https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/Calendar?surname=hodge&yearOfDeath=1907&page=2#calendar . "of 10 Quex road Kilburn Middlesex died 20 May 1907" Mentions Jane Frances Hodge (widow), Tom Kenwyn Hodge (accountant), Sine Mairearad Hodge (spinster). Latter two are presumably his children. We find eg Jane F in St andrews in 1881 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KMVB-NXP, Tom K also in St Andrews in 1881 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KMVB-NXB and Sine M in 1891: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KSFF-R85 so must be right family.

Non-free rationale for File:QuailCreekGCC-Scoreccard.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:QuailCreekGCC-Scoreccard.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:23, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Myopia-Hunt-Club-Scorecard.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:Myopia-Hunt-Club-Scorecard.JPG. 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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:25, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

Bot automation at Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement
Greetings WikiProject TAFI members!
Over the past two weeks, there has been extensive discussion on introducing bot automation to assist with maintenance of the Today's Articles for Improvement project. A bot has now been approved for trial and will carry out the weekly duties. The bots first run will occur around 00:00, 22 November 2015 (UTC) (midnight on Sunday).
If you have been assisting any of the weekly maintenance tasks, please refrain from doing so this week. The bot needs to be tested and proven it can do the job, and it only gets one chance per week. The tasks will include:
- Adding the new scheduled article to Wikipedia talk:Today's articles for improvement and removing the entry from Wikipedia:Articles for improvement
- Set up the schedule pages for the new TAFI, except the adding of an image and caption
- Adding {{TAFI}} to the new article for improvement, remove {{TAFI}} from last week's article and add {{Former TAFI}} to the talk page
- Notify relevant WikiProjects that the new TAFI is within their scope
- Send a mass message to everyone on the notification list of the new TAFI selection
Updating the accomplishments and archiving selections is still done manually, along with daily tasks such as adding approved entries to the articles for improvement page. These will become automated in the near future.
We hope the bot proves to serve well, and by carrying out the routine housekeeping tasks we can boost the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the project. MusikBot thanks you for your service in helping with the weekly tasks in the past, and for your cooperation during this trial period :)

License tagging for File:George Cumming, golfer - c. 1907.PNG
Thanks for uploading File:George Cumming, golfer - c. 1907.PNG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 16:06, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited George Fotheringham, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page South African Open.

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.

Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.Hi
