Saint Celsa

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Saint Celsa, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Speedy deletion of Template:Campaignbox Dominion War

A tag has been placed on Template:Campaignbox Dominion War requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:06, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Val-Dieu Triple Magnum.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Val-Dieu Triple Magnum.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. Kelly ^hi! 15:44, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Restored per Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#File:Val-Dieu_Triple_Magnum.jpg. Being a product cover, it still needs a fair use rationale.--Tikiwont (talk) 10:03, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Copied from WP:REFUND. I have been reviewing the situation and here are some remarks:

There only was a boilerplate non-free notice posted on my talk page. Nothing about (lack of notice for) fair use or cover art being at the heart of the problem. TBH that is not very helpful either.
Well at least it links to Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline which mentiones two points, 1) An appropriate copyright tag explaining the basic claim of fair use. and 2) A detailed fair use rationale (FUR)
I see in the history that an actual fair use notice was already added to the page right after it being marked for deletion. Err... somewhat contradictory actions?
The tagger added {{non-free product cover}} which describes the copyright status as possible fair or cover art, maybe to adress the lack of specifics you notice above. What has been missing is the detailed FUR, rationale {{Non-free use rationale}}
A few days after being marked for deletion, a bot tagged it for resize. It was deleted regardless without being resized.
Actullay that was not the deletion reason, rather it should have been resized if kept for which the FUR tag needs to be added.
It is still tagged for being resized now. But according to [Category:Non-free Wikipedia file size reduction request] and User:DASHBot#Tasks it should happen automatically? It didnt seem to have happened over the last few days since the file was restored, though. Indeed, according to [uploads] no resizing has happened since november 24th.
Seems the bot isn't doing that. Needs to be checked.
Before I noticed the FUR on the restored image, I went looking for what to do myself. I got lost in a swamp of copyright templates and rationales. I still wouldn't know what to actually add. In fact, I now know that resizing should happen because the image was tagged that way. But I wouldn't have known without that tag. Or what size it is supposed to be at. (I can only assume now that it is max 400px in any direction because of a notice at the top of the [Category:Non-free Wikipedia file size reduction request] page)

I gather that a clear info like Please fill out {{Non-free use rationale}} as in File:Beers of Stone Brewing Company.jpg would have been more helpful, at least in my own note above.

I dont believe the photograph itself is really worth much discussion over. It's not that awesome. But the above points highlight IMO that at some points, WP processes, guidelines and "documentation" have turned wrong and could use some serious review and redesign - read: simplification. Heck, I am adding all these comments here; but it's likely not the appropriate location either.
Filipvr (talk) 13:44, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I certainly agree that rules have become complicated here. With respect to the fair use of non free imags, its role in a free encyclopedia has been somewhat controversial, so maybe it is even somewhat more convoluted than usual. I'm not that versed there myself, so I take the opportunity to review a few thinsg and aswere above in detail. I would be great if you stick around to follow-up either with particular topics or helping others. mIght be a useful wiki project becuase many FURS can be fixed easily. --Tikiwont (talk) 09:34, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Brasserie de l'Abbaye du Val-Dieu

A tag has been placed on Brasserie de l'Abbaye du Val-Dieu requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mt king ^(edits) 21:17, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
