Moved images to commons

Hi, the who images listed above have been moved to Commons and is available as Image:India Gate.jpg and Image:Queen Victoria memorial, Kolkata.jpg so I'm deleting the "local" versions of them (we can use files from commons directly here). I would also suggest that you move the rest of your photos there too (with more descriptive filenames), that way all the Wikimedia projects can benefit from them and they don't risk deletion if they are not used in any articles because while Wikipedia is not a image repository Commons is exactly that ;-) --Sherool (talk) 16:10, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Zudeo.com

A tag has been placed on Zudeo.com, 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 Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page 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 its subject's notability under the 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.

Please see Wikipedia:Notability (web). -- Fan-1967 02:37, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Many websites claim to be significant because of new technology, or new marketing methods, or because they are about a significant subject. None of these factors are relevant to the standards set at Wikipedia:Notability (web). I recommend you read those standards.

The simple fact is that, since grokster, there have been untold thousands of startups of file-sharing websites. The measure of their notability is in their staying power, and the attention they receive from the market and the public. This site has yet to demonstrate either. Fan-1967 04:47, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Again, the newness of the concept is irrelevant. What the new article has, not in the previous version, is indication of serious attention from the press. You didn't actually bother to read the Notability definition above, did you? Fan-1967 06:44, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Mac Pro

I have left a more detailed response on the SuperDrive talk page, but here is a summarized answer for your question:

Mac Pro uses IDE for optical drives.

There are 2 SATA ports near the optical drive cage.

You should be able to use those ports for HDD. Freedomlinux 01:22, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Boc-tower2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Boc-tower2.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:41, 14 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sherool (talk) 10:41, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Foreign Correspondents' Club, Hong Kong

A tag has been placed on Foreign Correspondents' Club, Hong Kong requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. ukexpat (talk) 18:49, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Noble Group Logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Noble Group Logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:10, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

Laura Doyle (Author) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Laura Doyle (Author), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Jmertel23 (talk) 13:00, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, MichaelJanich. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Laura Doyle".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
