Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:1460097411 79e4825d6b.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 02:11, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Crime and Violence in Latin America

A tag has been placed on Crime and Violence in Latin America requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Freshwater Beach technical problems

Howdy, I just wanted to let you know there were still lots of small technical problems with the Freshwater Beach article, but that you do not really have to worry about them unless you enjoy fixing them. There are tons of people who specialize in putting commas and [[wikilinks]] etc. into articles, and they can only do this once someone has been kind enough to actually create an article worth fixing.

The technical problem that you can probably help the most on is finding WP:RS reliable sources for the article. In order to check for misspellings and alternate spellings of personal names, or to fix word choice, it is very helpful to have some outside authoritative source for the article. For instance, I changed the word "retained" to "regained", because the first word did not make sense, the second one did, and they sound the same, but without an outside source to check against I might have just introduced a mistake into the article.

Thanks again for the article, and feel free to fix any technical problems you want, but providing the reliable sources would be most helpful. JackSchmidt (talk) 17:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
