September 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page War in Afghanistan (2001–present) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing for further information. Thank you. JamesBWatson (talk) 08:59, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Osama Bin Ladin

While I agree the File:Bin Laden Poster2.jpeg is a better photo than File:Osama Bin Ladin Digitally Aged 2009.jpg, File:Bin Laden Poster2.jpeg is about to be deleted. I changed the image to avoid having nothing at all. I would suggest you read Deletion requests/File:Bin Laden Poster2.jpeg and decide for yourself if the image. Two admins are pushing for deletion, so I replaced it with one that the FBI made to make the point moot.--ARTEST4ECHO ^talk 13:15, 8 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

October 2010

Please do not delete information or images without an appropriate edit summary, as you did at Package Q Strike.--Epeefleche (talk) 07:06, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

November 2010

This is your last warning; the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Corvus cornix_talk 22:40, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

January 2011

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Gulf War. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. --S. Rich (talk) 08:27, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Osama at press conference.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Osama at press conference.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:05, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Osama_at_press_conference.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Osama_at_press_conference.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 14:25, 30 January 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey (talk) 14:25, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:AdamGadahn sept. 11 2005.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:AdamGadahn sept. 11 2005.jpg. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Human rights in Saddam Hussein's Iraq

The information you just re-added to Human rights in Saddam Hussein's Iraq is unsourced. Per WP:V, we have to provide sources for all statements that may be challenged. Once you have a source, you may re-add the info with a citation; until such time, that info should not be added to the article. Qwyrxian (talk) 11:06, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:AdamGadahn sept. 11 2005.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:AdamGadahn sept. 11 2005.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. B (talk) 02:25, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with upload of File:Gwbushoctober2001afghanistanspeech.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Gwbushoctober2001afghanistanspeech.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

your "flag" edits

I have no idea whether you think you are doing something constructive, but these edits[1][2] were not. At least try to leave behind some kind of edit summary that lets people guess what you thought you were doing. --dab (𒁳) 09:42, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And I don't think that's the right flag anyway. Can you come to talk and explain what you are doing, please? --John (talk) 05:48, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

October 2011

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Targeted killing, you may be blocked from editing. rev deletion of sourced material, without explanation Epeefleche (talk) 14:45, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. The next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Muqtada al-Sadr, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Epeefleche (talk) 14:47, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

November 2011

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Eureka Tower. 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. -- MST☆R ^{(Chat Me!)} 04:58, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
