November 2009[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Eve. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also useful when reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. You've edited a number of articles since you started, never using edit summaries. That alone makes it likely your edits will be reverted if it isn't clear why you made them. I don't understand your recent ones and am reverting those that don't make clear sense to me. Dougweller (talk) 07:53, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Abraham. 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. You changed a direct quote so that it no longer read like the original. Please don't do this again.

As you've ignored me, I've asked about your actions here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Judaism#Problem_editor.3F. Dougweller (talk) 09:30, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Mishkan-TimnaValley.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Mishkan-TimnaValley.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILY_sock^(TALK) 21:13, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

April 2010[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Kohen Gadol. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Edit summaries are a vital part of the communication we expect between editors, and if they are not used, your edits may be reverted because you have provided no reason for them.

Images[edit]

Hi, currently all images you uploaded are nominated for deletion for lacking copyright information or sources. You can check them out here. Regards Hekerui (talk) 11:23, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding these images. Also, once again I am asking you to use edit summaries. Wikipedia is a collaborative project and communication is vital. If you are not going to communicate you may be blocked from editing. Please respond to this. If you don't, I shall assume that you aren't seeing these for some reason and block you until you do respond. I don't mean to be unfriendly but we need to communicate. Dougweller (talk) 19:13, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for You have continued to refuse to communicate and have continued to upload images which may be copyright violations. You are blocked until you start communicating and demonstrate an understanding of our image copyright policy. Hopefully you will do this soon and be unblocked.. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

File permission problem with File:Rambam prayer.jpg[edit]

File source problem with File:HebrewHaggai.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:HebrewHaggai.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 website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:21, 29 April 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:21, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
