Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 16:02, 16 January 2020

Proposed deletion of Chris Gulker

The article Chris Gulker has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable individual appears to fail WP:BIO.

While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ttonyb (talk) 18:19, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of Chris Gulker

I have nominated Chris Gulker, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Chris Gulker. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. ttonyb (talk) 01:51, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

What a great job you are doing on the article Dave Winer

You really are pulling together so many loose threads that have accumulated over years and weaving them into a coherent, interesting article. I really appreciate the time and thought you put into making Misplaced Pages better for everybody. betsythedevine (talk) 00:17, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I've merely been been pulling the "coverage" out of the "Coverage and interviews" section, putting it into the article body instead. ARK (talk) 11:48, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Ark, please quit adding untruths to my talk page in an attempt to have an admin ban me.--Irelan12 (talk) 16:35, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Ark, the Dave Winer page is mostly fluff. A lot of those things are clearly from the company and he did not invent podcasting, rss, or anything else. Lets be fair.--Irelan12 (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

August 2011

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Misplaced Pages, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to 2011 Tottenham riots, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Hi Teapot -- thanks for reverting that piece of vandalism. I can assure you that I did not post it, although it appears under my name (please review my posting history to confirm this statement). I have no idea how this has happened, and I'm rather concerned, frankly, as it looks like my account has been compromised. ARK (talk) 16:20, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Chris gulker.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Chris gulker.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Brianga (talk) 16:09, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. The owner of the file has already given her permission via email. I have just forwarded her permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.ARK (talk) 16:37, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Thatcamp-logo.svg

Thanks for uploading File:Thatcamp-logo.svg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:48, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
