A tag has been placed on List of mayors of Indianapolis, Indiana, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 172.147.47.28 13:39, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Governors of Vermont
editHi Rkt2312. Vermont has a two year gubanatorial term, and Jim Douglas completed his first term in January 2005. Vermont does not have term limits pending for this office. Your edit could be read to suggest that it does. CApitol3 15:07, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Unexplained changes
editPlease discuss the changes on the talk page first for a consensus. Bidgee (talk) 01:34, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
I assume that Bidgee is referring to many recent changes by you from Image:Australian Coat of Arms.png to Image:Coat of Arms of Australia.svg. To avoid multiple discussions on the same subject, it is probably best to limit discussion to one place. The best place is probably Talk:Coat of arms of Australia#What is the problem with the SVG version of the Coat of Arms?, where a discussion has already taken place. To summarise, the svg version is vastly inferior to the png version. The png version is an actual representation of the CoA while the svg version is not. --AussieLegend (talk) 23:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Brazil–Japan relations
editA tag has been placed on Brazil–Japan relations requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Orphaned non-free image File:2010 Winter Olympics logo.svg
editThanks for uploading File:2010 Winter Olympics logo.svg. 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 in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 05:42, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

The article Fausto Silva has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Bgwhite (talk) 20:00, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Hello, Rkt2312, and thank you for your contributions!
Some text in an article that you worked on List of Brazilian flags, appears to be directly copied from another Wikipedia article, Flags of Brazilian states. Please take a minute to double-check that you've properly attributed the source text in your edit summary.
It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on List of Brazilian flags at any time. MadmanBot (talk) 20:27, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Brazilian flags, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Presidential Standard (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Changing Australian coat of arms to svg version
editIn short .... why ? Previous discussions (see Talk:Coat_of_arms_of_Australia#What_is_the_problem_with_the_SVG_version_of_the_Coat_of_Arms.3F) have concluded that the Svg version is a poor substitute and the png is far superior. Why are you changing these ? - Peripitus (Talk) 12:40, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
Please also read commons:Commons:Transition to SVG, which specifically says, "PNGs should not just be replaced en masse the instant an SVG replacement becomes available. It is often sufficient to label the image description page with a {{vector version available}} tag, and it will be migrated over to the SVG version by editors where appropriate." --AussieLegend (✉) 13:50, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

Replaceable fair use File:2002 Winter Olympics logo.svg
editThanks for uploading File:2002 Winter Olympics logo.svg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
