Great Neck High School image deletion

Hello -

I logged into Wikipedia for the first time in ages today, only to find an image I had posted, Great Neck High School, had been flagged as a copyright violation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Sweintraub.

I found this somewhat humorous, as the user, DueAmici (a banned sockpuppet), accused me of stealing the image from my own website. Had DueAmici performed even a cursory search, he would have found that I, Steve Weintraub, am also the writer of the website in question, jamesbetelle.com. I also never attributed the date '1923' to the image, but 1931 [1].

As for the image itself, it is my own scan from my private collection. It's a page from Architectural Forum, December, 1931 (the magazine folded in 1974). I'm not concerned so much for the image itself; if you deem it still violates copyright to post on Wikipedia, that is fine. I just don't like the notion of being accused of theft or plagarism. I'm hoping this violation notice, or at least the portions accusing me of falsifying information, may be retracted.

Thank you,

Rolando Gomez, Second Nomination for AFD?

Why are there second nominations after passing a first AFD? You might want to see this, since you participated in the first AFD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rolando_Gomez_(2nd_nomination)#Rolando_Gomez Thanks! 72.191.15.133 (talk) 06:37, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Deleted Myst image

Hey there. I noticed you deleted Image:Nexus-Interface.jpg a while back. Since this image is covered under {{Attribution-Ubisoft}}, would you be able to restore this file so that it can be moved to Commons? Please let me know if you have any questions/comments! — OranL (talk) 16:50, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh well. Thanks for your time anyway! — OranL (talk) 20:42, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

restoration of Steve Diet Goedde?

Apparently, Steve Diet Goedde's page was deleted re G12; however, the person in question (Goedde) is under the impression that everything that was written on the page was not a copyvio, but in fact specifically sanctioned for Wikipedia. There's more discussion here, in Goedde's LiveJournal account. Would it be possible to undelete said page? (Admittedly, it's been over two months since it was speedy'ed...) --moof (talk) 13:25, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Request for block

Greetings ESkog - may I request your blocking capacity to re-block User talk:130.156.140.2. They/he/she have been at it again. Cheers! --Technopat (talk) 17:10, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I agree with the broad general principal of not blocking, but the trouble with school accounts is that too many of my colleagues just let the kids do whatever they like during Friday afternoon PC session, without having given any prior general guidelines, etiquette, etc.. Nor do they bother to monitor use/mis-use. One of the results of this is that many other colleagues are no longer using Wikipedia as a resource because of the results of vandalism - which range from dates having been changed to ... well, you know what is to be found. So if they find that they can no longer use the school account, albeit temporarily, maybe they'd be just that little bit more responsible. Wishful thinking? Regards, --Technopat (talk) 08:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

If you don't know, you should not delte it. Learn first.

To: Eskog

Eskog let me respond to you as polite I can be while relaying my position to you.

I know you a math teach of a high school, not a History, Language or English teacher. Before you taking your hand a decision to delete or assessment someone work, which is a free help to Wikipedia site. You send me this message “Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism.” First, the word “nonsense” means garbage, junk, and small talk. Second, the word “vandalism” means sabotage, harm, destruction. In another expression to you, the history of my city is garbage, useless items, and insignificant, my posting to you is a crime, waste to the site. For a educate men like you say you are, you should know that your words are out of contest, the correct history of my town which I add to Wikipedia in Spanish for you is nonsense and a act of vandalism, Spanish is language is not nonsense or a crime unless you are a racism person, let me know. I bet you, you will feel the same if someone make those comments about your city, town, root, you do not want a stranger from other country writing the history of you town, well I feel the same way, and every race should be suitable to write they own narration. Who know the true better? Whoever keeps writing about Boca de Yuma they are copying and pasting stuff, they find on Google, some of that stuff is my writing. I am here trying to help Wikipedia by expanding it the contest of Boca de Yuma. You should know I already send to my lawyer the message you send me because it wrongdoing, and a dishonor to Dominican people especially to Boca de Yuma community.

As you can see I am no playing game here, I need to speak to Wikipedia administration on referent to this issue. I want my city to be excellent represent around the world since Wikipedia is international website. I will be posting one more time this time in Spanish Wikipedia site and also en English Wikipedia site if you have any question feel free to get in touch with me at bocaino@yahoo.com or www.myspace.com/bocaino Thanks you in advance for you time.

Honestly,

Rhadamés

Chef McCall image deletion

Greetings!

I noticed that you deleted a photo from my own user page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Venster Can you please tell me what violation I committed? This page was not 'live' as I thought I could use my own user page as a testing area. Also, the photo in question has no copywrite, as I got it from the subject himself. Please tell me what the proper way to submit an image such as this would be.

THANKS!

You edit mad quick. Or are you just a lifelong fan of Sigurd Holter?67.102.1.85 (talk) 22:16, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Regarding article Boselli Foundation-

The image you deleted was created by me and was not a (I9: Blatant copyright violation: from http://www.bosellifoundation.com/) If you had actually bothered to compare the two images, you would have seen obvious differences. If I had been able to copy the logo from the foundation's website, I would have used it and cited the source as such. After looking at your talk page, it seems you may be a bit too eager to delete prior to ascertaining all the facts. At the least, you should leave a comment on the talk page of the editor of the work you propose to delete. Mgreason (talk) 05:03, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I had read through the copyright sections, and didn't find any guidelines that covered this situation. Are you suggesting that a user-created image of a logo should still cite Non-free use media rationale referencing the organization's webpage? Mgreason (talk) 13:14, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Phillips Exeter Alumni

I don't know what is the issue with the Barbaro alumnus- but all of the people that keep removing Barbaro information are confused. I see from the list that there is some big issue surrounding this family- but you are 100% confused somewhere along in the process- and I don't know where the confusion stems from. He is listed in the alumnus record which you can check with the school- and the linked information is accurate- so the problem is with a few of you editors- it is not the problem of Exeter, or Barbaro , or the accuracy of this list... so if you have some issue, with all due respect, that is your problem. Because from what I can see, someone got mixed up on accuracy way way back, and never got things straight. I will not remove a noted alumni from my school, when he is listed in the alumni sourcing which you can check at the school, and which is provided below and when the link provided is also presenting accurate infromation. It is Wikipedia that is wrong, confused etc.- not the link.Ex-men (talk) 17:49, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
