Help me!

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Why are my hyperlinks for references not colored blue like most references that I see on other articles? I used the "Cite" templates. Check "Why U" and "Distributed Processing Technolody".

TIA.

This edit looks ok to me. Could you give an example of the problem? PhilKnight (talk) 19:01, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Echoing PhilKnight, your pages look perfectly normal to me.Primefac (talk) 19:04, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that the problem is with Google Chrome. It appears normal with IE and Firefox. With Chrome, the hyperlinks (only in the references) are not blue.

Ways to improve National Young Composers Challenge

Hi, I'm Skamecrazy123. Mjschiff, thanks for creating National Young Composers Challenge!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Whilst the references are there, and seemingly notable, they need to be linked to the relevant text in the article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Skamecrazy123 (talk) 17:08, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Skamecrazy123 - Thanks for your help. I have added links to the references and removed your comment. Mjschiff (talk) 16:55, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:DPTController.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:DPTController.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) 23:05, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Steve Goldman (September 14)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I would not resubmit as there's still nothing establishing both his own independent notability and substance.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Steve Goldman and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Deletion pending for File:Steve Goldman headshot.jpg

Hello, Mjschiff. Some time ago, a file you uploaded — File:Steve Goldman headshot.jpg — was tagged with {{OTRS pending}}, indicating that you (or perhaps the copyright holder if you did not create this image) submitted a statement of permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. Though there is often a backlog processing messages received at this address, we should have received your message by now.

If you have not submitted (or forwarded) a statement of permission, please send it immediately to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.

If you have already sent this message, it is possible that there was a problem receiving it. Please re-send it to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.

If we don't hear from you within one week, the file will be deleted. If we can help you, please feel free to ask at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 15:35, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Why U

The article Why U has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't meet WP:ORG. The PDF sources don't even mention Why U, they're about some other organization. The ones about Why U are self-published.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
