[edit] Phsycology stub
Hi - I've just deleted your article Phsycology stub. For future reference, stub types aren't articles, they're templates, which are different from articles, and should be proposed before creation anyway at WP:WSS/P. In any case, there's already a stub type for psychology (not spelling!) at {{psych-stub}}, as well as one for psychologists at {{psychologist-stub}}. Grutness...wha? 05:54, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not 100% sure you understand what a stub template is for... (it might be worth having a read of Wikipedia:Stub). In any case, most stub templates do have small icon-sized images. Freud wouldn't be a good choice, though, (in fact no indivifual psychologist is that good a choice) since the field of psychology is so widespread a field that no one psychologist could well represent it - and Freud in particular is a very controversial character in that field. Though some stub icons are uncontroversial choices, some are deicded only after quite a long debate, and even then there is often complaing (you should see the complaints currently going on regarding Cyprus-stub's icon, for instance). Grutness...wha? 22:18, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Book-Cover-Modern-Madness.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Book-Cover-Modern-Madness.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] License tagging for Image:Untitled-1 copy-2-.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Untitled-1 copy-2-.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] The Avenue of The King
A tag has been placed on The Avenue of The King, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

I need more time to finish this page. There is a lot more info that I would like to add. The book is based on considerable documentation coming from very reliable sources and relying on writings often unedited of the Marquise de Maintenon. About language restrictions. Can the page stay if it's about a book writen in French only? I am not sure if the book was translated to English, the title in English is just a translation of the French title. Hope this is the right place to ask questions, can somebody answer? <Yoradler5 07:12, 26 February 2007 (UTC)>
I CREATED A NEW PAGE The Alley of the King, to replace The Avenue of The King.
- Yoradler, I've responded to the question you left on my talk page. To answer your questions here, though, yes, the article can be about anything, as long as the content of the article is mostly in English. If you'd like and are able, it appears as though the the French Wikipedia doesn't have an article on this book yet - any French content or summaries you might have could be placed there. Also, since it looks as though you've made a second page about that, I'm going to turn the original page, The Avenue of the King, into a redirect to send people to the new article you've created. Good work, on both versions! Hersfold (talk/work) 22:31, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] References
Although most of it is self-explantory, external links are not references, and this requires something. Things such as a source, perhaps an alumni webpage showing she once went to École nationale d'administration, and especially the statement "finishing two years later at the head of her department, the first woman to reach this position." x42bn6 Talk 17:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Reply
Emotional conflict is a very general term in Psychology, used in all sorts of settings, workplace, prisons, home life etc. Where are the unbiased third-party references verifying the information in the article? Seems like an advert for the book and the book seems like OR. Sincerely, --Mattisse 00:26, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] This is an encyclopedia - not a place to write articles recommending a book
There are rules about what kind of article is acceptable. An article cannot be your opinion -- that is considered Original Research and is forbidden. Also the article must be sourced by unbiased third party references -- see WP:V. Sincerely, Mattisse
[edit] Reply
Sorry. I will answer you tomorrow. Too tired now. Sincerely, --Mattisse 05:01, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Try to explain
It is not a question of whether the information is helpful or not but rather a question of following Wikipedia article rules. Original research means that you are giving your own opinion which is not allowed in articles. Every statement in an article must be verified by a third party, reliable, unbiased source such as a peer-reviewed journal. It will look around for some articles to show you what I mean. You are free to post your own opinions on your user page. Sincerely, Mattisse 16:41, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sources
Most likely, a University Health Center page would not be a reliable source because it would not reference where it got its information from, eg. what journal publication etc. because it is written for the general public. Unsigned sources are not acceptable. Also, you cannot use another Wikipedia article as a source. That is not acceptable either. And although Tension headache has some sources, great chunks of it are unsourced anyway.
One of my problems has been trying to find you a well sourced article in psychology, and almost all of them are badly sourced. Discouraging. A well sourced article looks like this: Siraf, Ralph Bass, Open the Door, Richard, or in a long article Hoysala architecture. I'm embarassed, being a psychologist myself, that the psychology articles are in such bad shape.
Have you read WP:V and the other articles under WP:HELP? I wish I could help you more. You must proof that this is not Original Research by citing reliable, unbiased, third party sources such as newspapers, peer-reviewed journals etc. Sincerely, --Mattisse 18:53, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] North Korea
I know that what you had written was the truth :) It is just that there is a line between (pretty gray) between matter-of-factly describing something and analyzing a bit too much, that's all. Otherwise there is a lot of stuff we can write for many articles.. I generally don't get involved in that page, so I will let the regular contributors iron it out - when I had seen that it was an anon, I automatically assumed that it was the usual harassment that certain articles from random readers..
