Winnipeg Article

Please review this post once again. You are continuing to behave in the same manner and are downgrading the Winnipeg article.

While I appreciate the improvements you've made to Winnipeg, I must again ask you to please explain what you're doing. You have shown a persistent unwillingness to explain your edits, despite being asked to repeatedly, and a tendency to edit war. You add material[1] and then immediately remove it [2]. You remove material without explanation [3][4][5]. You have continued to change the location of this picture (e.g., [6]) when the consensus on the article's talk page is to put it on the right. And all of these diffs are just from this evening; the same problem is repeated almost nightly. The habit of making a dozen edits in a row, with no edit summaries, makes it almost impossible to follow what you're doing.

You do not own the article, and you must take other editors' consideration into account, or else it is disruptive editing. This is the last time I'll ask before asking for administrator intervention. justinfr (talk/contribs) 01:13, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Please ensure that you enhance the article, not diminish it. --142.161.161.211 (talk) 11:20, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:August 15 2007 downtown 175.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:August 15 2007 downtown 175.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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 19:06, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to Winnipeg. Thank you. -- Taroaldo 01:40, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

• Please use the edit summary when editing articles. None of your recent edits have included an edit summary. This makes it difficult for other editors to quickly see what kinds of changes have been made. Thank you. --- Taroaldo 03:16, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Winnipeg. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. -- Taroaldo 04:25, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Winnipeg

Hello, thanks for your edits to Winnipeg. When you're making changes, please be sure to include an edit summary so that other editors can quickly see what edits you've made. justinfr (talk) 19:57, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi again. In the editing window, there's a box that looks like this:

Please include an informative edit summary in this box when you're making changes to articles, such as you did to Winnipeg. I reverted this edit because it removed content without explaining why. Please don't do that. justinfr (talk) 02:27, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Recent edits

Hello, just a note about your edits to Winnipeg. When you see that your edits have been reverted, please go to the talk page to discuss them instead of getting into a edit war. I've created a section for discussion there. See WP:BRD. Also, please do not remove large blocks of content without explanation, as you did with this edit. justinfr (talk/contribs) 11:41, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Image:Ca-mb-br.gif

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Ca-mb-br.gif has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[7][8]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because images on Wikipedia need to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License or another free license, which allow anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-3.0}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file, please understand that the vast majority of images found on the internet are not appropriate for Wikipedia. Most content on the internet is copyrighted and the creator of the image has exclusive rights to use it. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others - do not upload images that violate others' copyrights. In certain limited cases, we may be able to use an image under a claim of fair use - if you are certain that fair use would apply here, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list. If no fair use rationale applies, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Pegasus «C¦T» 01:44, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Br-mb-crest.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Br-mb-crest.gif. 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:04, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Copyright problems

Hello. Concerning your contribution, History of Winnipeg, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). This article or image appears to be a direct copy from url:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winnipeg. As a copyright violation, History of Winnipeg appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. History of Winnipeg has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at Talk:History of Winnipeg and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
• If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:History of Winnipeg with a link to where we can find that note.
• If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on Talk:History of Winnipeg.

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you. HalfShadow 01:10, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

USDA plant hardiness zone for Minneapolis

You edited Minneapolis to say that Minneapolis has a USDA plant hardiness zone of 5. Are you sure about that? All of the garden centers around here say that we're in zone 4, and I checked a 1990 USDA plant hardiness zone map and it says that Minneapolis is in zone 4.

Could you recheck on this? Thanks. --Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 02:38, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello

I see you are keeping them on their toes.

Humidex and wind chill units

Neither humidex nor wind chill is is a measure of temperature, and neither is expressed in degrees Celsius. It is incorrect to apply those units and convert them to Fahrenheit degrees. —Michael Z. 2009-02-16 17:19 z

File permission problem with File:Whitehorse Yukon Canada Sept 22 2008.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Whitehorse Yukon Canada Sept 22 2008.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

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 Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia: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.
