[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Mn-flour.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mn-flour.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 15:45, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] THE GARAGE

The difference is notability. Did you have Lordi appear on stage? Even so, the other article The Garage (night club) has limited notability. See Wikipedia:Notability for details. Adding citations will definitely help. And, please do not remove the notability tag! Thanks -- Chris 73 | Talk

This is a battle of perspectives, I'll assure you Britney Spears is just as important to Europe as Lordi may be to the United States. This is a matter of your opinion and you haven't shown me much else than that. I'll try to comply as best as I can to your demands as an Administrator, but I am confident THE GARAGE is quite notable. I'd rather prove this than send you dozens of lesser notable Wiki entries to be deleted just to go against your opinion. Davumaya 11:47, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Let me quote "Notability is not subjective

Subjective evaluations are not relevant for determining whether a topic warrants inclusion in Wikipedia. Notability criteria do not equate to personal or biased considerations, such as: "never heard of this", "an interesting article", "topic deserves attention", "not famous enough", "very important issue", "popular", "I like it", "only of interest to [some group]", etc.

Notability is not judged by Wikipedia editors directly. The inclusion of topics on Wikipedia is a reflection of whether those topics have been included in reliable published works"

Did Britney spears appear in the garage? In any case, I may be wrong about the notability of this article, but so may you. If you want, I can list the article at WP:AfD, where a larger number of editors decide if it is notable or not. -- Chris 73 | Talk 12:08, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Well basically you are not the first person I have met on Wiki who decides what is notable or not because they don't like it or something. I read a lot of stuff on here that contradicts the idea of notability. For example, if a band breaks up, are they notable because of prior fame and awards or is it because a fan community still exists? And the reason I react so abrasive to the citation monster is that I read plenty of Wiki articles that have no citations in them whatsoever for the most outrageous statements. Certainly you can see my frustration if you are trying to outright judge my article for deletion on first glance. Though I applaud you for taking the time to do so.

This is part of the new page patrol. There is an awful lot of - xcuse me - crap coming in at Wikipedia in any minute, and it is tough to decide what is worthwhile and what is not. (See here for the latest new articles). I also agree, that there are a lot of articles with very dubious notability on Wikipedia. In any case, I am still not sure about the article. My preference would be to have more people look at it, that is what the "notability" tag is for. If you don't mind, I would like to add the tag again. if the topic is notable, the tag will be removed eventually by another admin. BTW, If i would have been 100% sure of the non-notability of the article, i would have deleted it right away. I hope you understand -- Chris 73 | Talk 12:46, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spoken articles

Hi. I've noticed that you appear to have been working on converting the articles Urban planning, Urban design and Architecture into a spoken version for over two months now, according to your entry on the In Progress section of Wikiproject Spoken Wikipedia. If you are no longer working on the article, please either remove yourself from the list, or notify me so I can do so, so other editors will know they can work on the article instead. If you don't reply within a week, I will assume you are no longer working on the article. Cheers,  Panser Born  (talk) 19:39, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I've replied to your query on my talk page, so the conversation stays in one place. Cheers,  Panser Born  (talk) 12:07, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
