[edit] Sources for Potem Falls
Hello, good work on Potem Falls, and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. From what websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Potem Falls? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET if you wish to review some of the different citation methods. Thanks! BRIAN0918 03:18, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Black Rock Falls.jpg

|
Thanks for uploading Image:Black Rock Falls.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stan 05:44, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Barr Creek Falls.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Barr Creek Falls.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Stan 04:16, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Salmon Creek Falls.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Salmon Creek Falls.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -SCEhardT 22:46, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging for Image:LimekilnFalls.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:LimekilnFalls.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] image upload - copyright
I have uploaded a bunch of waterfall pictures I have taken on my camera. While uploading, I have tried to give as liberal a copyright notice as possible... I don't care who/how the picrutes are used (I don't own and don't want to own any of the waterfalls :-) ). Still folks keep bouncing my pictures - don't know how to move on.
I want these pictures be restored or I can load them again - but, can some one point me to an easy page that suggests best possible selections to make in image upload page - so that no one will ever delete it for copyright/ownership reasons. I don't even need credit for the pictures I have taken (I am not a professional photographer - let these pictures be in place until some professional puts up a better picture there).
- Mark'em as Public Domain ({{PD-self}}), and strongly assert that they are your own work. That's the best I can think of, anyway. --maru (talk) contribs 00:24, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- I assume you're talking about Image:Salmon Creek Falls.jpg, Image:Black Rock Falls.jpg, Image:Barr Creek Falls.jpg, and Image:Mill Creek Falls.jpg? I've re-uploaded the last three for you and given them appropriate copyright notices, but I don't have a copy of the first.
- For future reference, when you upload images you've created, select "Copyrighted, author releases all rights" from the license dropdown menu, and add a brief description of where and when you created the image to the "summary" box on the upload form. --Carnildo 06:06, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Aragalur.PNG
Thanks for uploading Image:Aragalur.PNG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:LimekilnFalls.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:LimekilnFalls.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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you created this image yourself, please look at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#For image creators, select one of those tags, and add it to the image. To do that, simply go to Image:LimekilnFalls.jpg, click "edit this page", and add the appropriate tag. Be sure to remove the current tag indicating a lack of licensing!
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me at User talk:Angr or at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. —Angr 20:27, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Barnstar
Hey, Thank you very much for the barnstar. I really appreciate that. That was a great gesture. That will encourage me to participate in wiki with more zeal. Thanks a lot. Gnanapiti 22:56, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the Barnstar!
Just when I was getting really discouraged too, so thanks! Sincerely, Mattisse 00:47, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re:the Barnstar!
I doubt whether I really deserve it but thanks a lot anyway. That was a really encouraging gesture! Sincerely, sumal 05:22, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanx
Thank you for the barnstar! Like Sumal, I also think I really don't deserve it, I haven't done anything lately, but appreciation is always nice :) Thanx again, ImpuMozhi 17:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the Barnstar
Thanks for noticing my articles. As you saw, I'm a great fan of South India especially the Western Ghats. I see your footprints around Protected areas of Tamil Nadu and that you've started a few nice articles about places in Tamilnadu. You may be interested in joining Protected areas of India and starting Wikipedia:WikiProject_Protected_areas_of_India#PAI_All_States__Start_articles about Protected areas of Kerala or Protected areas of Karnataka article which are missing but needed. I think you're from Salem Dt. What I remember most of that place is the awsome Mangos which are famous all over the state. Regards, Marcus 18:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks a lot, but...
Hi Pinecar - thanks a lot for the Barnstar. I'm really puzzled though - I made a minor change to the Software Testing page (which was removed), so why do I deserve one? Robinson weijman 22:41, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

- Well, now I've seen your explanation, I'm very grateful. To be honest, I thought you had made a mistake! But thanks again - it's great to be appreciated and does wonders for my enthusiasm! Robinson weijman 19:46, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dhanyavad, but...
Namasté Pinecar, sorry, I just logged in today. I saw the barnstar here. As I see you seem to give this also to other people. From your edits here I see you are since long in wiki active. But I feel like I have not so much contributed like others on the article Software Testing. So I am not sure about it. As I see you come from India? ----Erkan Yilmaz (evaluate me!, discussion) 22:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for Barnstar
Hi Pinecar, Thanks for the Barnstar, though like Erkan I agree that I have not contributed much for Software testing.. but still it felt good.. Digitalfunda 08:03, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] AfD nomination of List of PIN Codes in Tamil Nadu
An editor has nominated List of PIN Codes in Tamil Nadu, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of postal codes in India and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. Jayden54Bot 18:27, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] LogLogic
A tag has been placed on LogLogic, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you feel that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) 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 the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. ··coelacan 05:54, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion
I have deleted User:Pinecar/sandbox/Universities as it consisted mainly of non-free images (CSD U3) To contest this, please see Deletion Review or discuss it with me. GDonato (talk) 22:38, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. You did have non-free content on the sandbox page (Image:MIT Seal.png, Image:CardSeal-1.gif, Image:Hmc seal.png) and others. This content is not allowed outwith the mainspace (articles) per WP:FAIRUSE. I have no intention of deleting the university pages as they are mainspace. Thanks, GDonato (talk) 16:17, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
