BulgarsHi, I don't think that I made an unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. My intention was to improve the article, because as it is written, it is wrong. I am from Bulgaria and I think I know our history quite well. For example, there is no single evidence that Bulgars were Turkic people, as the very first sentence of the article states. This is misleading. Bulgarians were Huns indeed, and they could be trace through our ruling dynasty Uokil back to China and the Yuezhi people, who were European nomads (Tocharians) in northern China. The article in its present form is also misleading about our language and religion. Why are you doing this? Pavel Staykov — Preceding unsigned comment added by PavelStaykov (talk • contribs) 03:00, 20 February 2015 (UTC) BulgarsHi again, I saw just now what was the problem : The Huns and the Bulgars were the same people. I admit that this sentence should be corrected, though it is a truth, but it is more precise to say The Bulgars were children of the Huns. (or sth like that) See: A history of the First Bulgarian Empire by Steven Runciman (http://promacedonia.org/en/sr/sr_1_1.htm#007_1.) Nevertheless, this is much less misleading, rather than to say that Bulgars were Turkic people, which is not true. This is only a hypotheses, and most probably it is false. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PavelStaykov (talk • contribs) 03:44, 20 February 2015 (UTC) Email notification It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox.

Brendon SmallLook at this citation for the entry "Brendon Small is a fan of pee." at the 1:00:00 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvLoJBhbg24 It is factually accurate and I believe the subject in question would find it funny. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.89.226.29 (talk) 22:15, 18 March 2015 (UTC) Govinda KCThank you for pointing out the nature of the article. I understand the new portion on the fifth fast to have more promotional and blow by blow details of the latest protest. I will tone it down soon. I have tried to make the page as referenced as possible. Also, I understand wikipedia's concern of making it more encyclopedic than promotional. If you could point out a particular section, I could work on that. Rabindahal (talk) 06:02, 3 April 2015 (UTC) Lexalytics Montreal ImageThank you ESkog!

You have speedy deleted this file https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Reinhard_Gammenthaler_practicing_Baddha-Padmasana.jpg under the criteria of Unambiguous copyright violation. This is my mistake as I was unaware of the image policy at the moment of upload. Now I have received the permission from copyright holder to use this photo under a free license, but the file is already deleted. The confirmation letter of his permission is sent to OTRS, so such deletion criteria is not appropriate anymore. Is it possible to reconsider the deletion? What should I do to use this file? Can I upload the it one more time and put OTRS-pending tag or the file can be restored only by administrator? I would appreciate your consideration. Thank you!

Please forgive me for any misunderstanding that may have occurred because of this. But i looked at the page your referring to and i can tell you 100% it was not me. Kind Regards, kane0091 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kane0091 (talk • contribs) 15:50, 30 May 2015 (UTC) Could you please explain...You closed the discussion on the fair use use of File:Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar.jpg as delete. But you didn't explain your reasoning. I think nominator @Stefan2: takes an extreme view of fair use. You did not explain what you thought was wrong with my explanation of how Stefan erred in this discussion. I did not see or respond to his final argument in the discussion -- which I think was nonsense. I don't think Stefan2 has made enough effort to understand the argument of those who disagree with them. People have a right to make "fair use" of images that meet certain criteria. When an image meets the criteria for fair use people have a right to re-use that image, without regard to the photographer's potential loss of income. I've done my best to understand Stefan2's arguments. Stefan2, however, seems to think we can't allow wikipedia contributors to make fair use of images, when one of our readers might re-use the image in a context in which the fair use criteria weren't met. When we re-use an image under a CC or GFDL license, we honor our obligations to state it is being re-used under that free license, even though our readers might re-use that image, ignoring the obligation to state it is being re-used under a free license. We all understand that we can't be held responsible for how our readers use images, so long as our use clearly states their obligations. I see our obligations in just the same way when we re-use an image that legitimately meets the fair use criteria. Our readers may see a fair use image that we are making legitimate fair use of, and see a context where they too could re-use it in a manner that is a legitimate fair use. When our readers re-use an image, and their re-use also meets the criteria for fair use, then neither the WMF or are reader is, in the wording of WP:NFCC#2 making use of the image "in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted material." Legitimate fair use trumps the photographer's right to make a profit from their photo. States grant photographers, and their estates, a (limited) right to make a profit from their photos. They do so because doing so is seen as in the public's best interest. And states also grant a right to make fair use of images that meet narrow criteria, because they think fair use is in the public's best interest. I suggest it is obvious that the right to make fair use has to take precedence over the photographer's right to make a profit, or no image could ever be used in a fair use context. Legitimate fair use -- use of an image that genuinely meets the criteria for fair use -- does not interfere with the photographer's right to make a profit, because, when an image meets the criteria for fair use, the photographer has been stripped of the right to make a profit. I have explained this point to Stefan2 before, and, as in this discussion, he argues from the fallacy that we have to prevent the possibility that our readers will re-use the image in a way that doesn't meet the fair use criteria.
Note his point 2 -- here Stefan2 is essentially stating that we are responsible if our readers re-use an image we used, but do so inappropriately. We all recognize we have no such obligation when we use CC images, and Stefan2 has made no effort to show we have this obligation when we use an image that meets the criteria for fair use. We are all fallible. I too am fallible. There may be a passage in a wikidocument that explicitly imposes the obligation Stefan2 keeps implying we are under. But, if so, he has never been able -- or willing -- to cite that passage. You closed this discussion, without explanation. If I take this as your endorsement of his reasoning, then I would like to ask you if you can cite a passage from a wikidocument that says we are responsible when one of readers makes a further re-use of an image we used appropriately, but they did not.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas. In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you. Nomination for deletion of government pictureYou recently nominated for deletion File:Accumulated rainfall in the DR due to hurricane Matthew.jpg saying that "surely there are government sources who make maps such as these freely available..", but unfortunately, legally speaking, there is no such thing as government free images in the Dominican Republic, unlike in most countries, since our backward copyright law does not provide it. That's why nobody can upload logos and emblems of the government ministries nor official portraits of government officers nor any file done by a government employee as part of his/her duties, when in other countries, those files are copyright free. For an example just see this deletion.

MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 20:33, 12 November 2016 (UTC) A new user right for New Page PatrollersHi ESkog. A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right. It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best. If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR.
