License tagging for Image:FIANZ Silver Jubilee 16-11-05 Three presidents.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:FIANZ Silver Jubilee 16-11-05 Three presidents.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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:

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. 02:09, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Christchurch Mosque photo

I have reduced the size of you photo on the New Zealand page and reverted it in South Island, You will probably get reverted in the Mosque and Islam page by somebody else. Because of the way you have added the photo to each page it looks huge and messy. Please see Wikipedia:Picture tutorial for information on how to reduce the size and otherwise format your photos in articles. - SimonLyall (talk) 06:16, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Traugott von Sauberzweig

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot.

Proposed deletion of Voja Miric

The article Voja Miric has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Josef Fitzthum Article

I would like to bring to your attention, the invalid picture of "Josef Fitzthum" on his own Wikipedia page Josef Fitzthum. Are you sure it is uploaded to Wikipedia under that filename? If so see if you can fix it. Feedback would be appreciated. Adamdaley (talk) 11:04, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Abdullah,

I have been advised that the picture of "Josef Fitzthum" will be and hopefully transfered (by the person who uploaded it left him a message) to Wikipedia Commons and that it is clear of Copyright. Hopefully we will be able to get a copy of the file to put onto his article. Adamdaley (talk) 06:07, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers. I am not particularly IT adroit but I read a lot and have a house full of books (esp. WII). I cannot figure out that Josef Fitzthum image thingy; the image is there on the German language page. My Deutsch-sprach is not good enough I guess !?

The image of Josef Fitzthum has been uploaded by an anonymous user with an IP address. Thanks for your help on this article. Adamdaley (talk) 23:18, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. In Bosnian-Herzegovinian Infantry, you recently added links to the disambiguation pages Fez and Tyrolean (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Mazhar Krasniqi

Hi Abdullah, I noted that you have a list of references at the bottom of the article, but they were not linked to the claims made. On checking some of your recent work I saw that these have the same problem. The correct procedure for referencing the points you are making is to use the reflist function under the references heading. Take a look at the edit version of Albert Pitt for an example. You will see the references are within ref and /ref in the text, which in turn link to Reflist under references. An example if you look at this in edit mode.^[1] which then ends shows up in Reflist

Disambiguation link notification for January 20

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.
