Vandalism?

I am confused, while I don't know the accuracy of what is being stated here, how is it vandalism?--Maleko Mela (talk) 10:25, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

I might have pulled out too much about the land forces (I'll look again) but if you think the bit about the development of the Hawaiian navy and a huge deadnaught fleet is anything but vandalism then feel free to reinsert with sources. Nthep (talk) 10:30, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
I see. My point was just that I don't understand calling it vandalism when we have such a strict definition on Wikipedia for what that is, but I am not interested in actually re-adding that yet. Maybe, if it turns out to be accurate. I do know the Kingdom did have a navy, just not to what extent that was. But don't worry, eventually i intend to research this out with RS when time permits. Do you think the article is bad enough that it needs some clean up?--Maleko Mela (talk) 10:49, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
I take your point but I think it's so outlandish a claim that Hawaii had a navy that size to meet the definition of vandalism as opposed to just unsourced material. Nthep (talk) 11:24, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Why did you remove my uploaded pictures???

Why did you remove the pictures I had uploaded to BMW E12. What is wrong with you people?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Farzadhosseini (talkcontribs) 16:59, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

they weren't licenced at all or incorrectly and you hadn't resolved that, despite being given over a weeks notice. Nthep (talk) 17:21, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Huh?

Do you know who I am? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sumdawg (talkcontribs) 03:51, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

File:TNANG.gif Deletion

Good afternoon! Sorry I wasn't able to respond to your notification for deletion for http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=File:TNANG.gif. I went to fill out the required section but saw that it had already been removed. The source for this object was the Tennessee Air National Guard/US Air Force. Fair use is established by the fact that it was created by a US government entity, and is being used for identification purposes. Could you please do an un-delete? Thanks! nf utvol (talk) 19:58, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

I will restore the image once I understand what the response to the original deletion is, namely where specifically did the image come from. If it's the state of Tennessee then it's not necessarily a PD item (unlike works of the State of Florida) but if it's of Federal creation source then it is almost certainly PD. Nthep (talk) 20:25, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
Hmm, it's definitely produced by the TNANG, but I'm not sure if that qualifies as something created under the auspices of the State of Tennessee or USAF. It's literally been years since I uploaded it, so I'm not certain where I found it originally. If the person who created it did it while the unit was Federalized, then it would definitely be, not sure otherwise though. It's a fairly rarely used device, and the TNANG's site kind of sucks, so it doesn't have any images. I've seen it on a number of ANG publications though. Regardless, I think it's pretty easy to give a fair use justification as an identifying badge of a military organization, even if it isn't public domain. Much better than a picture of an airplane that the TNANG doesn't even fly any more, which is what is currently used on the page.nf utvol (talk) 22:34, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Ok it's restored but you need to add a valid licence or a fair use rationale, othrwise it'll get deleted again. Nthep (talk) 08:28, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
Done, thanks!nf utvol (talk) 17:24, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014 Nepal Premier League, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Round-robin (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.

A favour?

I'm having a bit of trouble with File:IggyAzaleaLIVENYC.jpg, Laura has asked me to upload a better quality version of the image but I can't as I edit from opera and don't have pc access. The same with Julia's File:Iggy Azalea Work Converse Dirty.jpg , this because the files are too large for my phone to upload. Could I perhaps ask you to do them for me please? Laura's better quality version appears on the file's flickr page, and Julia's version I will need to e-mail to you. Sorry for the inconvenience but I'd really appreciate it, as my phone's not capable of doing it for me. (Sad I know, LOL). Regards.—CoolMarc 07:02, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Sure, not a problem. Nthep (talk) 07:39, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Removal of Greeny Games Studio

Hi,

You removed my page 'Greeny Games Studio' under A7. No indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content, events). How does one indicate importance?— Preceding unsigned comment added by GreenyUk (talkcontribs)

@GreenyUk: Please read our notability guidelines. --k6ka (talk | contribs) 17:06, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
You should also read the guidelines on WP:Conflict of interest as your username suggests that you are connected with the company. Nthep (talk) 17:34, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Request for comment

Hello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:46, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Pumpie's sockpuppets

Hi, I'm Marianian and I am able to detect the modus operandi of Pumpie's sockpuppets. Pumpie is currently blocked indefinitely due to this.

It has come to my attention that Hannah Undel may belong to Pumpie, pending CheckUser, because it created many s-line templates on its first day, and made cut and paste moves to metro articles (see WP:DUCK).

What it means for you is that, if you detect those kind of edits from an apparently new account, it may well be a sockpuppet of Pumpie: not all but if you would like to look back at all the reports please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Pumpie.

Other telltale signs of a Pumpie sockpuppet includes, but not limited to: broken Greek translations and capitalising "Railway Station" despite general convention not to. The sooner we catch the user's sockpuppets the less of the editor's "damage" we have to deal with.

Cheerio! --Marianian(talk) 16:14, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

I did have a look at the Pumpie SPI when I was looking at Hannah Undel's edit history and while you might well be right, it didn't quite fit, her edits are more to Spanish stations than Greek and the capitalisation was in the right direction to lowercase station from uppercase Station, albeit done wrongly by cut and paste but trying to be right. I await the CU outcome with some interest. Nthep (talk) 16:21, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
I forgot to emphasise that my intelligence shows that one of his sockpuppets did edit Spanish stations as a cover before making the move to the target. I think we need a brief WP:LTA page to help aid detection. --Marianian(talk) 16:31, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
You were right, thanks for the heads up, I know what to look for in future. I see they were straight back with another sock. Perhaps a LTA page is needed. Nthep (talk) 09:08, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Deleted image

you deleted my photograph before I had a chance to get a copy for my records. Could you e-mail it to me please?Rodolph (talk) 11:27, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

New Iggy Azalea image

Hi Nthep, I've sent you an e-mail with regard to an image of Iggy Azalea a Flickr user wants to donate. Did you receive it?—CoolMarc 17:40, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Just done it, you'll find it at File:Matt Klopot - 2014-04-25 - Iggy Azalea @ Danforth Music Hall 017 (14049980184-.jpg Nthep (talk) 18:03, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Thanks a billion! will add it to the article shortly!—CoolMarc 18:12, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Pictures Removed

Hi, you removed my pictures on my Stonechat Jewellers draft because there was no evidence of permission. The photos were from my Stonechat Jewellers website which I own and manage. How do I prove that I own the rights to the photos? Thanks for your time and any information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RamallahCC (talkcontribs) 12:18, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi, there are two main ways. The first is to amend your website to include a [Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright#Copyleft_licenses|copyleft]] notice on your website for the relevant images, preferably a Creative Commons license. The other is to follow the process at Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries and email Wikipedia with a release licence for the photos. If you go down this route you need to use an email address that is linked to your website i.e. from stonechatjewellers.ie Nthep (talk) 19:16, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the information. I have submitted the images now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RamallahCC (talkcontribs) 11:48, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Rose (film)

I am trying to create a page for a film that I work on called 'Rose' TWICE in the past hour the page has been deleted and yet I am fully licensed to write about this film? What is going on?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Stuart Bannerman (talkcontribs) 19:15, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Well for a start don't just cut and paste the plot summary from IMDB, then read the notability guidelines for films (Wikipedia:Notability (films)) so that you understand what is required of a film article. Nthep (talk) 18:21, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

The Wikipedia Library: New Account Coordinators Needed

Hi Books & Bytes recipients: The Wikipedia Library has been expanding rapidly and we need some help! We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more Account Coordinators.

It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine. If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at my talk page or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz@gmail.com.

Although other stations do not have a logo, St Pancras does and it is a prominent and recognisable part of the station, displayed instead of the Network Rail or TOC logo. The station is used by many people as a shopping centre or to access hotels, people who are not just boarding trains and they use the logo to recognise the station. There are appropriate fair use templates on the image.   JaJaWa |talk  04:27, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
