Speedy deletion nomination of Selection of Spouse in Islamic Marriage
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Selection of Spouse in Islamic Marriage, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. 331dot (talk) 12:40, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
Reply
editHi, thanks for message. Please add your messages to the bottom of the talk page, or they may be overlooked. I deleted your article "Selection of Spouse in Islamic Marriage" because
- it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. The article was completely unsourced, and appears to be your personal opinion or an essay. We cannot accept original research. Some of it is obviously not true. I don't believe Muhammad knew about genes
- it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, and not just directed at Muslims. You consistently refer to people by honorifics, not by their names. Also note that Muhammed and other major figures have articles about them on Wikipedia which you haven't linked to
- "Salat Alshukr" has the same problems, unsourced and promotional. The non-neutral tone is even worse here peace and blessings of Allah be upon him may be fine in a mosque, but it's not encyclopaedic. Also note that there is a related article Salat
Your submission at Articles for creation: Mohammad Jahanara has been accepted
editThe article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on the article's talk page. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Use:AliAkar/Ahmad Keshvari. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – User:AliAkar/Ahmad Keshvari. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at User:AliAkar/Ahmad Keshvari – you might like to discuss new information at [[Talk:User:AliAkar/Ahmad Keshvari|the article's talk page]].
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. WWGB (talk) 11:49, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Ahmad Keshvari
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Ahmad Keshvari requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

File permission problem with File:Ahmad Keshvari.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Ahmad Keshvari.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 on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:14, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Mazda Publishers.png
editThanks for uploading File:Mazda Publishers.png. 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 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:54, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Chess with the doomsday machine, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://downtowndartmouth.ca/index.php/events1/chess-with-the-doomsday-machine/.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.
If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Cerebellum (talk) 10:59, 5 December 2014 (UTC)I have deleted the article; it clearly constituted promotion of both the book itself and the ideas contained in the book. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for promotion of any products, or for political campaigns.
The book itself appears to be notable and probably deserves an article, but as it stood, it was better to scrap all of the contents and redo it from the scratch. If you did not save the contents of the article, and want to either re-write it, or find an alternate outlet for it, please e-mail me and I'll send it to you. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 08:05, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
- I have marked your userspace draft User:AliAkar/Jewish Supremacism for speedy deletion as promotional. As a matter of fact, your article promoted the book and its ideas, and minor tweaks will not change anything about it. If you want to create an article about the book, you need to redo it from the scratch. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 12:44, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
- Once again, I am not going to restore the article; if you re-create it in this form, even as a user space draft, I am going to mark it for speedy deletion once again (or just delete it myself). If you disagree with the deletion, you can challenge it at deletion review; as far as I am concerned, the case is closed. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 13:00, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
I assure you, I am not deleting your article (or marking it for deletion) because of my personal bias. In fact, I do oppose the policies of Israel in the Palestinian conflict. Rather, I am deleting it because it is outside the scope of Wikipedia, for reasons I have already explained. (I haven't read the book, so I can't comment on its factual accuracy, but it is my opinion that anything written by an anti-Semite and a Holocaust denier is a priori suspect.)
For example, a user has attempted to change the article Homeopathy to state as a fact that the procedure is a fraud. While I don't believe in the efficacy of homeopathy, either, I have reverted the edit and tried to explain to the user that such statements of opinion do not belong in an encyclopedia. (See [1] and [2].) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 15:23, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Topic ban on Jews and Judaism needed for AliAkar. Thank you. Ian.thomson (talk) 16:44, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
- Your draft has a lot of material that uses sources that don't discuss the book. The whole content paragraph for instance - that needs to show how Duke defines the term, and anything other sources that meet WP:RS say about Duke's definition. Not definitions from other sources. The section "The book purposes" also has material not about this book. It doesn't make a lot of sense either. The section on "writing method" would need to come from other sources, not your own analysis, see WP:NOR. Dougweller (talk) 13:24, 25 December 2014 (UTC)
December 2014
edit Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Jewish Supremacism. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Attempting to present FRINGE opinions as fact can be considered a form of disruptive editing. Ad Orientem (talk) 22:17, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
I have rewritten your additions to the article Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam. As just one example what was wrong with your contributions, it is not acceptable for Wikipedia articles to refer to Israel as the "Zionist entity" (except in direct quotes when they are needed to demonstrate a point; in this case, the quote needs clearly marked as such). See the policy of neutrality. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 14:05, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
- I think there are a few words missing there, and that it should read: "As just one example of what was wrong with your contributions ... in this case, the quote needs to be clearly marked as such)." ~ P-123 (talk) 22:46, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Copyright of government works
editYou say that a "government website published a picture from Iran-Iraq war" - which website is it?
The copyright status depends on the laws of the individual countries. In the United States, works of the federal government are ineligible for copyright, so they may be freely uploaded to Wikipedia (or Wikimedia Commons). This is generally not true for other countries, or even for works of the individual U.S. states.
For example, in the Czech Republic official works are ineligible for copyright. This includes text of laws and other regulations, court decisions, drafts and official translations of such works, publications of the Czech parliament, municipal chronicles, state and municipal symbols (e.g. the Czech flag and coat of arms). It generally does not include photographic and other media works.
In any case, it needs to be verified that the work is indeed in the public domain; even if a work is found on the government website, it might not actually be a government work (or even if it is a government work, it might not be one which is excluded from copyright by the country's laws). If the work is not in public domain, or when there's doubt, you may want to contact the administrator of the website and ask them to clarify its copyright status; once the copyright holder is known, you may ask them to release the work under a free license or into public domain. (A free license must permit third-party commercial use and creation of derivative works.) See the guideline on requesting copyright permission. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 07:35, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi @Mike Rosoft: Thanks for your attention to this matter. If we and also administrator of the website don't know the copyright holder of a photo, what should we do for upload this photo in commons?
AliAkar (talk) 08:52, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- If the author/copyright holder of the image is not known, and it is not obviously in public domain (e.g. a historic work of art hundreds of years old), then it must be assumed to be unfree, and can't be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 09:56, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
Indenting
editHey AliAkar! Please keep indenting in discussion pages so that one can follow the discussion. As you see, you did not respect this in the DYK discussion page. Thanks Mhhossein (talk) 03:23, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Mhhossein: I used your notification and edited the DYK discussion page. Thanks AliAkar (talk) 07:35, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
Quotations
editPlease note that quotations from citations must be copied exactly and not altered in any way. This is a rule in Wikipedia - see WP:MOSQUOTE. I have mentioned this twice in the edit summaries and once on the Talk page, but you are still altering quotations! Please could you remember this rule and keep to it! ~ P-123 (talk) 09:32, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
DYK for Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam
editOn 25 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that the Iranian missile architect Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam was known as the father of Iran's missile program? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
Warning on deletion at Ali Khamenei
edit You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 13:18, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- @Ism schism:About all of my deletion in this article, I said my reasons in talk page and then deleted. I stated that:"All of the deleted sentences are personal idea about Khamenei and these person are not important person. These person have partial judgment about him and the writer of this section used several invalid link that now these are dead link." I think the deletion sentences has serious issues regarding balance, neutrality and comprehensiveness. Please say your reasons for restore the sentence. Please say your idea about sources and search the sources. AliAkar (talk) 14:10, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- They are sharing their personal view yes, but because they are notable scholars/journalist like Vali Nasr they are acceptable. To delete their views and perspective is not the norm, and must be done only after consensus is reached on the talk page. Let me know if this doesn't make sense. Thank you. Ism schism (talk) 15:28, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- Also, dead link is not a reason to delete. It is a reason to find a different link to the source or proper citation of status. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 15:34, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know how I may assist you. You have some valuable contributions to make, I just want to make sure you know the rules that editors work within for editing articles. Thank you for your hard work. Ism schism (talk) 18:26, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for your attention and your reasons but I think this person has a negative vote about Khamenei.AliAkar (talk) 06:33, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
edit Hello AliAkar, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Ahmad Motevaselian has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing.

Thank you.
A tag has been placed on Jewish Supremacism (My Awakening to the Jewish Question), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ian.thomson (talk) 08:01, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

Copyright problems
edit Your addition to User:AliAkar/Jewish Supremacism (My Awakening to the Jewish Question) has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. You appear to have copied at least some of the text from a review of the book which appears on the author's website. Psychonaut (talk) 11:15, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
It also appears that you copied or moved text from Basij into List of Iranian commanders in the Iran–Iraq War, and from Ahmad Motevaselian into List of people who disappeared mysteriously. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Psychonaut (talk) 11:24, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
Wikipedia rules and policy
edit- I know you mean well, but re-creating the David Duke article broke some Wikipedia rules. For now, you should delete the article. When you are more familiar with Wikipedia rules, you can create it again, but go by the rules. I will help you, but for now please delete it. I think you are just not aware of Wikipedia rules, I will help you understand them if you like. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 12:13, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- I think they have problem with the subject because they could improve the text and add negative idea for balancing the text. But they say several reason for delete the page and all of reasons have POV.AliAkar (talk) 12:28, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- The best thing you can do is create an article going by policy, when an article is controversial like this one, it must go be written by policy almost 100%. You are still learning about these policies, and need a little more time. For now, just delete the article. When you understand how to use Wikipedia policy, you can create it with other editors in the future. For now, you need to demonstrate that you are still learning. If you delete the article, I promise I will help you learn how to work within the rules and policies. In creating articles, it is usually better to work with other editors, they can help each other so we all work within the rules. You have made good contribution, and created some good articles, if you work by the rules, there are many more contributions you could make. Let me know how I can help. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 12:36, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- How can delete my userspace draft page? Can you edited the article and add your idea in the article? They wants ban me, So what should we do?AliAkar (talk) 12:42, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- If you decide to abandon your draft, just put (sent as title) at the start of it. It will be deleted shortly.
- It is best to completely delete it, until you have become aware of the rules. This will show other editors how you are trying to work within the rules. You need to try to work with them so they know you are trying. I will let other editors know that you are trying to comply with rules. To show good faith, first delete the aerospace. Then we will start working on an article for Iraq-Iran War. Thank you. Ism schism (talk) 12:55, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

- if that didn't make sense - please read and use this - [3], it will show you how to delete it. Thank you. Ism schism (talk) 13:03, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- I done the work and delete the page.AliAkar (talk) 13:08, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you. By doing this you are showing other editors that you are willing to work with them, and trying to work within Wikipedia rules/policy. Currently, only a few editors want to have tut out banned. Most editors just want you to not be able to work on Jewish articles until you learn about the rules. You may not think this is fair, and it may not be, but it is the best outcome possible at this time. I will work with other editors, and try to show how you are working to be a constructive editor. After a while, you might want to make a statement on the discussion. It is always best to be humble, and not argue. Just remind people you are trying, and apologise for any confusion. Then, we will find an Iraq-Iran War article and both work to improve it. Thank you for being constructive. Ism schism (talk) 13:17, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- You've stated your case well. It's best to leave it alone for a few days. It doesn't help to keep making arguments. There are other editors arguing for you, let them make the case for you. The best thing to do is start working on an article. Do you know which article you would like to start with? Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 13:51, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- I am very sad because they deleted my article about Ahmad Motevaselian and have very bad behavior with me. I don't know what should I do!!!AliAkar (talk) 13:56, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Lets put it in userspace and work on it together. There were copyright violations, we can make a better article that will pass all policy and rules. Ism schism (talk) 13:59, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Ok. I put it in userspace draft and work with you.ThanksAliAkar (talk) 14:01, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

- Thank you. Lets talk about sources (WP:RS) and POV (WP:NPOV) on its talk page. I can also do some copy editing. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 14:20, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Please explain the Wiki rules and policy for me with simple language.ThanksAliAkar (talk) 14:25, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- I will, thank you for your patience. WP:RS means we must only use Reliable sources. Ask yourself, "is it from a news agency, or a general website?" News agencies are generally the most reliable. People can go to the news website and see for themselves that you have presented the information accurately. WP:NPOV means that you present the information as a neutral presentation, no analysis, no personal opinion added. I'll continue to explain as we work on the article together. Ism schism (talk) 14:33, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for your cooperation. OK, I understand the meaning of these rules.AliAkar (talk) 06:26, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
