User:UWECMatSci100

I am requesting confirmed rights for the permission to upload images to the page Hycrete as part of a project assigned to me in a Materials Science class. The images are copyrighted but we have emailed the company for their permission to use them and have received confirmation. UWECMatSci100 (talk) 02:02, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Yostkr

I work for Sonoma State University Preserves and was asked to edit the Galbreath Wildlands Preserve page. I would like permission to upload the pictures they want me to put on the page. Yostkr (talk) 19:11, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, one more question - What are these photographs depicting? -FASTILY (TALK) 21:43, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Chesteria 785

I am requesting permission to upload fair use images (video game screenshots). Thank you! Chesteria 785 (talk) 19:21, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
 Question: Please list the games you would like to upload images for and why the articles for those games need those images. -FASTILY (TALK) 19:32, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Answer: No problem, I would like to add a screenshot of the mobile version of Phase 10 to the Phase 10 entry. Chesteria 785
Why does the article need the image? There is no mention of a video game version of Phase 10. Adding this image would be an outright violation of Wikipedia non-free content criterion #8. -FASTILY (TALK) 20:06, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize, I should have been a little more thorough with my answer. I would be expanding the article to include mention of the mobile versions of the title and using the images to support this entry. I was also hoping to do the same thing with the Rubik's Cube article as it makes no mention of the mobile versions of the game.
Please expand the articles first, then upload the files (At any rate, you'll be autoconfirmed by then - i.e. the system will grant you the ability to upload files) -FASTILY (TALK) 20:24, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good, thanks a lot!

As your account stands you can edit 95% of Wikipedia, why not start with those until your account is autoconfirmed ? Mlpearc powwow 15:03, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

 Question: Can you describe the WP:COPYRIGHT status of the WP:IMAGE, and the anticipated page. And, as Wikipedia has no deadline, can you explain why it's so urgent to upload it quickly? (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:20, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Carl Frederick, author

Reason for requesting confirmed rights Carl Frederick, author (talk) 10:35, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

By way of relevant background, I am Carl Frederick, the author and copyright owner of the book titled: "EST: Playing The Game* The New Way *The Game Of Life".

The information on me and the book, (previously submitted to Wikipedia) was done by a third party, without my knowledge or consent.

I am requesting that the information currently on the site under my name be removed, and that this version be substituted in its place. I would also like to remove the hardcover edition cover image shown on Wikipedia, and insert the book cover from my current Amazon/Create Space publication.

Finally, I would like to change the heading for my piece, from "EST Carl Frederick" to read "Carl Frederick, EST Author"

Please advise what additional steps (if any) are required before this action can go into effect, and thank you for taking your valuable time to read the submission.

Sincerely,

Carl Frederick — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carl Frederick, author (talk • contribs)

  •  Not done Of course the article about you was written by someone else - on Wikipedia we're not permitted to write about ourselves. Not only do we have a very different perspective on our notability, but we have massive conflict of interest. Although you may be able to edit for errors, add proper 3rd party sourcing (not your own website), and remove edits that contradict our biographies of living persons policy, you should not be the primary editor on articles related to you. Be careful not to remove validly-sourced material. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:00, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"He is currently filming Men in Black III for a 2012 release playing Agent J one of his more popular earlier roles, making this his first major starring role in four years."

  •  Not done If you make the note of what needs to be changed on the article talkpage, I'm certain that WP:CONSENSUS will have it included. Don't worry - you'll be able to edit the 5% of Wikipedia that is semi-protected in no time! (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:43, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Doon School is not protected and you have been actively editing it. Is there something you need to do that requires confirmed status? GB fan 16:26, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I am notable to add pictures on the page. Though I added a few, they were removed later on.

{{subst:rfp|TheCircusLA|I am making this request regarding my own user page -- Gregory Paul Martin. I am Gregory Paul Martin and wish to edit my bio. I cannot remember the password to my account, and when I request an email enabling me to change it, it does not arrive in my InBox.} TheCircusLA (talk) 00:57, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You can verify my identity by contacting Jimmy Wales. He very kindly helped me in removing some incorrect data put on the page about me some time ago -- which is the reason the page is now locked.

Please contact me about this asap at my personal email -- gregorypaulmartin@gmail.com

Thank you, GM
