NowCommons: File:'83 Dodge D150 Sweptline with a slant6.jpg[edit]

File:'83 Dodge D150 Sweptline with a slant6.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:1983 Dodge D150 Sweptline.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:1983 Dodge D150 Sweptline.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 02:47, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:2009 Christmas Kokopuff.JPG[edit]

A tag has been placed on File:2009 Christmas Kokopuff.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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), 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.

Rollback of your edit to Bob Ross[edit]

A Google search of the phrase you added ("Let's add a little twiggy") to the above article returned exactly 1 hit - your edit. Unless you can provide a exact source for your claim I believe I am correct in reverting the edit as vandalism, and as such would officially (say, level3?) warn you not to make such edits unless you can cite them.

Linkspam[edit]

Hi, slant6guy. Please note it is not appropriate to add links to commercial outfits such as you did with Clifford in the Chrysler Slant-6 engine article. Please brush up on the relevant policy; it doesn't matter whether such a link is placed in an "external links" section or inline with the text or in any other manner. Also, please stop editorialising about the slant-6 and other engines. This is an encyclopædia, not a school essay. Remember, it's not what we think we know, it's what we can definitely prove that goes into articles here. Thanks much. —Scheinwerfermann ^T·_C20:31, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Alaskan Taraxacum Parachute Ball.jpg[edit]

The file File:Alaskan Taraxacum Parachute Ball.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

orphaned image, no encyclopedic use

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 files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

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

Also:

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
