Rustam school moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Rustam school, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Jalen D.

File:Waitrose & Partners.svg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Draft:Rustam school

Hello, Berrely. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, Draft:Rustam school.

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:23, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in London, North West London

A tag has been placed on Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in London, North West London requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Orphaned non-free image File:Hereward House Logo.svg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Hereward House Logo.svg. 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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Ntx61 (talk) 11:26, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:2019 Grays Incident Lorry Shot.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:2019 Grays Incident Lorry Shot.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{Non-free fair use}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Replaceable fair use File:St. John Ambulance cadet peforming first aid.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:St. John Ambulance cadet peforming first aid.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:06, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

Finland is not part of Scandinavia

Finland is not part of Scandinavia. It has never been, even when it was under Sweden's rule, it was not considered to be part of Scandinavia. The Finnish culture is very different to the Scandinavian ones, before Christianity spread to Northern Europe, Finns worshipped different gods to the Scandinavians, the mythology is different, the traditions are different. Yes Finland adopted certain things from Sweden when it was under it's rule, Finland also adopted things from Russia when it was under its rule yet it is not considered to be a Slavic, because it is not. To say that Finland is a Scandinavian country just because centuries ago it was ruled by a one, is the same as to say the Scots are English. Ask any Nordic person whether Finland is part of Scandinavia and they will say no, look at any school book used in Nordic countries and in none of them will it say Finland is part of Scandinavia. Geologically and culturally Finland is not part of Scandinavia. The Finnish language is not related the Scandinavian languages, the closest language to Finnish is Estonian and Finland has a lot in common with Estonia, yet Estonia is a Baltic country not Scandinavian not even Nordic. Just because a misconception is widespread it does not mean it is true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.130.44.44 (talk) 17:36, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Apologies! I'm not denying what you are saying but the reason I removed your edit was that it wasn't cited to a reliable source. For example, you could have cited the text to this Worldatlas article as well as that, you also removed another country. Add the information again with citations, and I'm sure it won't be reverted. Also, I suggest creating an account to stop you being flagged by the system, and sign your posts with four tildes like this: ~~~~ to make a signature.

Rollback granted

Hi Berrely. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! – Juliancolton | ^Talk 17:49, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Draft: Meredith McCrindle

Thank you Berrely for your prompt review! Wow! Thank you! I am totally new to Wikipedia and still learning the format and rules. I have a marketing back ground and tend to write in the promotional, but have really tried to make the content more objective. My edits are specifically switching from a promotional format to just the straight forward facts. By eliminating the promotional aspect I am hoping to establish notability. The subject is known to me as a student. Please let me know any other suggestions you might have to improving this page. Thanks so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harpmom39 (talk • contribs) 23:41, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Harpmom39, apologies, I made a mistake! I failed to notice that your article was in the draft space and as you did not add an edit summary simply thought you were vandalising the page. I have reverted your article back to the prior version.

Apologies,

Hi Berrely

Thanks for getting back to my edit, im not a vandal and I cannot understand why you didn't authorise my changes, im very new to Wikipedia and want to male productive changes.

With Kik Messenger, my addition is factually accurate and I've added two references, what else do I need to do?

Thanks, — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dogsdantra (talk • contribs) 10:58, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Dogsdantra, I'm very sorry, please add back the changes. Your edit was flagged by an automatic system, and, generally anything to do with fetishes are involved with vandals. Often people who dislike things vandalise their Wikipedia article to say bad things about them, and I thought you where doing that.

Deepest apologies, Kaveh

Hi Berrely

I've tried again and written it slightly different in the hope that you could approve this time. Im trying to learn Wikipedia as I have been donating to them for years and I believe in it strongly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dogsdantra (talk • contribs) 11:11, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
