Thank you! hello, i'm a member | talk to me! 22:48, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
thanks, i dunno if i deserve one. the treatment of Qsito is appalling. instead of speedying people's first articles, we should be spreading the barnstar joy. what are we gonna do about the delete first and do wp:before later? i am agnostic about the notability of a First team though. Accotink2 talk 02:27, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think they are notable if they have: 1) won regionals multiple times (I don't want to make an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument, but they should be based on the same criteria for schools and other organization) or 2) have been widely noted in multiple secondary sources. Many FRC teams meet that criteria. Anyways, do you live in Santa Barbara? User:Antandrus is an administrator who went to Dos Pueblos High School. Anyways, if D'Penguineers survives, I'll give you another barnstar (that reviving one) :) --hello, i'm a member | talk to me! 02:34, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
you make a good case, but i can see the "First teams are a dime a dozen" votes already. nope, (i'm in wp:GLAM/SI) i came by way of the MacArthur, notice no before there. it's not the deletes that bother me, but the shoddy deletes. Accotink2 talk 02:47, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

i'm working on it, you should have seen it before i got there, read like a commercial. cheers WookieInHeat (talk) 03:19, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Santa Barbara School Districts Logo.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Santa Barbara School Districts Logo.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) 01:05, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:1717shirtlogo.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed.

You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. --MGA73 (talk) 21:57, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:FRClogo.jpg

[edit]
⚠
Thanks for uploading File:FRClogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Template:Incomplete has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for discussion page. Thank you. Tijfo098 (talk) 00:43, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Simbotics 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. ttonyb (talk) 23:35, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Turning Ten

[edit]

On Saturday January 15, 2011, Wikipedia will turn 10 years and people all over the globe will be celebrating Wikipedia on that day. No event is currently planned for Orange County Wikipedians, so I am leaving a message with some of the currently involved editors listed in "Wikipedians in Orange County, California" & "Wikipedians in Southern California" to see if we might want to meet on that day, lunch, dinner, group photo or other ideas welcomed? I will start a "Turning Ten" discussion thread on my Talk page to see if any interest can be planned for and determined. I am located in Old Towne Orange off the circle.Tinkermen (talk) 20:18, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the addition of transfer speculation to Brad Friedel as we don't tend to include transfer speculation for players for the simple reason that it is speculation. Nothing is certain yet, wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Last week everyone was certain he was moving to Liverpool. When a transfer is made and a contract signed, then we can update the article to say he has moved. At the moment he hasn't moved and it is incorrect to update the article as such in my opinion.

File source problem with File:Portrait Rached Ghannouchi CROP.jpg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Portrait Rached Ghannouchi CROP.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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
