Both Vary and I seem to think that if the articles are radically shortened and put in a list of 10th Kingdom characters (per WP:FICT for lesser important characters), there'd be no need for deletion. I'd even be willing to do the grunt work. Would you please return to the deletion debate and consider changing your vote to a shorten, merge and redirect into a list? - Mgm|(talk) 09:29, 23 August 2006 (UTC) Middle-earth tenseThnks for your recent edits to the Middle-earth related articles. I have only one objection: using of present tense. WP:WAF indeed states that articles on fictional characters are to be written in present tense, but M-e related pages are among the few exceptions. The reason is that not a book plot is being discussed, but rather a history of a world - indeed, as JRRT himself wrote, the history of our own world. A consensus was reached on WT:Me to use past tense, and before editing pages to present the discussion at least must be renewed - though there's little hope in changing current standards.

Chris (talk) 20:55, 6 September 2008 (UTC) Your additions to the List of Fictional AstronautsThanks for your additions to the list I've tended to focus on the literary side of things and left the film/TV side of it slide. In answer to your question about the Zeus crews from Dr Who I'd suggest that you put them in the 'Futuristic' section. It's what I did with 'Hunter-Killer' where you have something that does not quite fit into the orderly sequence of things. Just remember to include both date of publication and the date the episodes are supposed to be set which is the 1980's from memory.Graham1973 (talk) 11:57, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
I saw that you've changed the reference format for Apollo at Go. I'd like to propose we reformat the whole reference section (Books at least) to conform to the same format. Obviously it's going to be quite a time consuming task, so perhaps we split it?Graham1973 (talk) 02:09, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Samuel scott leaping from a bridge.jpgThanks for uploading File:Samuel scott leaping from a bridge.jpg. 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) 22:09, 15 June 2011 (UTC) FeedbackHi.

Re:File:Dewey_Smith_through_viewport.jpgThank you for uploading free images/media to Wikipedia! As you may know, there is another Wikimedia Foundation project called Wikimedia Commons, a central media repository for all free media. In the future, please upload media there instead (see m:Help:Unified login). That way, all of the other language Wikipedias can use them too, as well as our many sister projects. This will also allow our visitors to search for, view and use our media in one central location. If you wish to move previous uploads to Commons, see Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons (you may view your previous uploads). Please note that non-free content, such as images claimed as fair use, cannot be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons.

MiddlemoreHi Gildir, I've just started a page on Thomas Middlemore, and when I clicked on the tab 'What links here' I saw that you have made a page on him (more extensive and better than mine) but haven't uploaded it yet. Apologies. These things happen. Would you mind incorporating your material to mine? I only made the page because a user oddly linked Middlemore in the Les Droites page that I started to a page on the saddle company and I told this user that I'd start a page on Middlemore himself. Had I known of your work I'd have added to it when you uploaded it. Ericoides (talk) 17:57, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
No problem re Maund; it's nice that you're starting all of these interesting pages. I don't do DYK any more, but I see that you do: it would be good, if you can be bothered to do so, if you could propose a hook including Middlemore, Cordier and Maund (best be quick as Middlemore was written on 12th; 17th is therefore the deadline). How about ... that on the first ascent of the Cordier Couloir on the Aiguille Verte, Thomas Middlemore, John Oakley Maund and Henri Cordier were "nearly obliterated by rockfall"? Ericoides (talk) 21:15, 16 January 2013 (UTC) Thank you for the suggestion, Ericoides. I have now made the nomination, using your suggested hook as the first of three alternatives (see below).

File source problem with File:Alberto Ascari.jpgThank you for uploading File:Alberto Ascari.jpg.

As I wrote in my reply on that, I would prefer to keep the image there (as it is indeed a defining part of the article), but couldn't find the original owner (the image's information links to a user-upload on Youtube, which is clearly not the copyright holder). So if/when that is sorted out, it is probably best to keep the image off, though if you can find the original owner of the video and update the image's information, that would make it easier.

(Opt-out instructions.) --DPL bot (talk) 09:11, 14 August 2018 (UTC) Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Ergo Sum 23:46, 23 March 2020 (UTC) Honesty about my editHello there. I saw that you removed my edit, which is "Krankenschwester...Krankenschwester...Ich kann nicht atmen...du auf meinem Atemschlauch stehst". You said that this is "probable vandalism". It's not "probable vandalism". The reason why I did that is that I found this subreddit which claims that Albert Einstein's last words are "Krankenschwester...Krankenschwester...Ich kann nicht atmen...du auf meinem Atemschlauch stehst". Unfortunately, there's no link to back up the claimed last words. I simply searched "walter aldridge albert einstein" and there's no website or books about it. So, in my mind, I decided to put the claimed last words, hoping that someone came across it and will search for any sources to back up what it's said there. If they don't, then they'll remove it. I'm gonna leave you with four questions:
I'll reply as soon as you replied. Emotioness Expression (talk) 10:36, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

It's okay. Next time, do some searching to confirm the claim made by people on Wikipedia. Also, you're welcome. And also, it's a lesson for me that if I stumbled upon a fake source, don't fell for that trap. Instead, just look at what its content is and do some searching about the claims it made.

ZimZalaBim talk 17:00, 24 August 2020 (UTC) Harvnb/harvid in List of last wordsI HATE the harv method because it adds a single citation in the references section for every single entry, AND you can't thereafter hover over the footnote number and see a pop-up of the actual citation details (just the harv shorthand). You undid a good method already in use and I'd really like to re-do it for you. I much prefer the method that was already in the article, such as <ref name="Shields 196"/> and then adding a page number after it, if needed, like this: <ref name="Shields"/>{{Rp|196}} This method does NOT add extra citations. There is one single entry in the references list, and each use of the citation gets a tiny page number after it. There's a sample of how this is done in the History section of Tsavo Man-Eaters#History. Take a look. Normal Op (talk) 21:44, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Regarding Special:Diff/1039261243: EranBot reviews all edits over a certain size and screens them for potential copyright violations. Each of the bot's reports is reviewed manually before any action is taken. Because there are a lot of Wikimedia mirrors (external websites that copy from Wikipedia), sometimes there are false positives. In this case, your edit was matched to a Wikipedia mirror. Because you properly attributed the copying from the 1978 article, there is no issue here and you should feel free to restore the edit and ignore the bot. Hope that makes sense; let me know if you have any questions about that.

Fram (talk) 17:42, 11 February 2022 (UTC) Hi, don't worry about it. My colleague based his article on the obituary, and it was only when I looked into it later that I found the story had holes. I'm not to Wikipedia so I'm still learning how to edit sources. I've found that BU Theological Library has more issues of Zion's Herald from the late 1800's/early 1900's, and from them I found that Abrey Kamoo joined the church in 1885. I also found a marriage record on Ancestry.com that showed her son William Kamoo married Sadie Williams on April 4th or 5th, 1889 by Reverend John Hood at the First United Presbyterian Church in Boston, now Newton Presbyterian Church. Sadie Williams was born about 1865 in Cedarville, New Jersey, to Henry and Ann Williams. The marriage certificate lists William as a "porter" born in New Orleans and Sadie as a "domestic". People's Temple merged with different churches over the years and is now Old West Church in Boston. Sadly they don't have any records of Mrs. Kamoo, so I would recommend the BU Theological Library for more info. I hope that helps! https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NW54-F29 — Preceding unsigned comment added by HenshinforPie (talk • contribs) 15:53, 18 February 2022 (UTC) Don't gild trashI hate to upset you, but with your edit you made a bit of vandalism 'prettier'.

February 2023Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as April 1963. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Please see the following links for more information: https://copypatrol.toolforge.org/en/?id=96370794 https://api.ithenticate.com/en_us/dv/20220511?lang=en_us&o=96370794 MrBauer24 (talk) 13:05, 22 February 2023 (UTC) Copyright on March 1966Did you, in this edit, copy from here?

The story takes place after a successful Moon landing in July 1969. However, the story alludes to a previous successful Moon landing by a Civil War era engineer named Franklin Grimsby, who landed on the Moon on 11 July 1865. It's currently listed under the 1969. --Roland 20:13, 2 May 2024 (UTC) Hello, Gildir, Category redirects are different from article redirects. Please look at the code/template on this page so you know how to format a category redirect properly. Don't feel bad, few editors have a reason to create category redirects so few know how to make them. But it's very simple, you just use a different code. I just thought I'd point it out in case you wanted to correct any others you have made. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:52, 19 May 2024 (UTC) Thank you

Hello Mandsford, we've discussed about your plan to revert my edits I did between March and May of this year and I need to know this. So about the "which article is "notable" and which article isn't" talk back in late May, I wanna know why in one of your changes on the June 17, 1963 section you did not put the infamous Vietnam riots in the top? Wouldn't that be more notable? I fail to see how that is not notable then the articles on that section. You probably know what I'm talking about since I just saw your edits in June 1963. Also, I wanna know more about why my edits aren't allowed for the 1960s wiki pages. Are my edits breaking any rules here or is it just because you don't like the way I changed all the stuff in order of how my sentences they have? I am genuinely curious about why it is a big deal. Arcadia (talk) 09:05, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
My apologies for the long statement. We may hear more; however, I would recommend editing articles as you see fit, in that Wikipedia is the encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Mandsford 15:50, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Rauchut.jpgThank you for uploading File:Rauchut.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale. If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
