Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the 
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Addbot (talk) 15:37, 4 March 2012 (UTC) (Leave me a message)
Welcome once again. Thanks. --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 17:57, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Lehigh County Historical Society, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by ClueBot NG.
- Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
- ClueBot NG produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
- The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Lehigh County Historical Society was changed by Sarah E. Thayer (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.855517 on 2011-10-07T15:56:07+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 15:56, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
Deletion pending for File:Harry C Trexler Portrait.jpg
[edit]Hello, Sarah E. Thayer. Some time ago, a file you uploaded — File:Harry C Trexler Portrait.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) 23:05, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
File permission problem with File:Harry C. Trexler Portrait.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Harry C. Trexler Portrait.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. AntiCompositeNumber (talk) 23:37, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hello Sarah, I have not been able to find an email in the OTRS system for this file. If you have sent the email, you should have received an automatic response containing a ticket number. If you have this ticket number, please let me know what it is. If you have information about when the image was first published (if ever) and who created it, that information would also be very helpful. Thanks, AntiCompositeNumber (talk) 23:42, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Donald P. Miller moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Donald P. Miller, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia), as is positioning of the article from a neutral point of view, with neutral language. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 22:15, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Jake, Thank you so much for your timely response regarding the Donald P. Miller article. I appreciate your concerns and will be taking this back to the team who researched and developed the article. We are big fans and supporters of Wikipedia and want this article to be the best it can possibly be. As we work to comply, it would be extremely helpful if you could be a little more specific about exactly what your concerns are related to the sources. Also, if there are any other suggestions you could give us, it would be of great help, and we would be very appreciative. Thank you again for your guidance. We admire all the good work you and your colleagues do at Wikipedia.--Sarah Sarah E. Thayer (talk) 16:58, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
