External links

Hi... I am trying to add profile links to models wiki pages for My Fashion Database. I received the following message: It appears you are adding external links to many different Wikipedia pages in rapid succession. This is often a sign of people spamming Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites. before you continue you may wish to review Wikipedia's policies of external links and spam as these may help you decide whether these links are appropriate for Wikipedia. Please feel free to ask at the Help Desk if you have any questions. If you want to add references to the article, please, read WP:References for an appropriate way to do this. If you're sure you still want to make this edit, go to the bottom of this page and click 'Save page' again, and it will be submitted as is. If you were not trying to add links to many pages, and you received this message in error, you may report this error.

How do I go about create My Fashion Database links on Wikipedia without them being considered spam??

(Alexis0517 (talk) 20:44, 29 September 2010 (UTC))

I'm sorry, this probably isn't the answer you are looking for - but, at least it is an answer.
  • External links should only be used when they add information to the article that could not otherwise be added. If a website is a reliable source, then the facts it gives should be included in the article, using it as a reference. If it is not a reliable source, it does not belong. Usually it is acceptable to have one or two links to some 'official site', but it's not appropriate to link to some arbitrary database. This is all covered by the external links policy.
  • In addition, Wikipedia is absolutely not to be used to promote things. You've got a conflict of interest regarding that website. Therefore, you should not add links to it. You could suggest the links, on the article discussion page ('talk page') and let others decide if they are appropriate - as explained in WP:BESTCOI.  Chzz  ►  20:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

University of Exeter

Just wondering why you felt the change I made to the University of Exeter page regarding the current Sabbatical Team was not constructive and therefore reverted? I removed the team which left office last academic year and altered the heading for the current team, a change which I felt was necessary in light of the start of a new academic year.

Definition of BLP

Regarding this edit. You may want to re-read WP:BLP, taking special note of what the L stands for. Also, {{No footnotes}} is the more appropriate tag to use when references are listed in the external links section, rather than in inline citations. Regards, The-Pope (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Sorry for appearing rude, I just get very annoyed spending time on non-BLP articles when we're trying to clear the backlog... and of the net-25000 decrease in uBLPs this year, I've probably seen 10,000 of them. If his death wasn't clearly stated twice in the article (opening line and category) I wouldn't have bothered notifying you. We have a big enough task as it is, we don't need to be distracted onto non-BLP articles.The-Pope (talk) 01:30, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Kuala Lumpur population

The populations in the table are all based off a single source, having the KL population changed is an anomaly. Would it be okay to change it back with a note saying that figures may be different? It'd be better to have all the populations from one source. If you can provide a better source, that'd be good. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 07:11, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:41, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

The article Osama Khalid Khalifa has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

fails WP:ATHLETE; never competed at the highest level

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Tassedethe (talk) 16:25, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

GOCE drive invitation

Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors

The latest GOCE backlog elimination drive is under way! It began on 1 July and so far 18 people have signed up to help us reduce the number of articles in need of copyediting.

This drive will give a 50% bonus for articles edited from the GOCE requests page. Although we have cleared the backlog of 2009 articles there are still 3,935 articles needing copyediting and any help, no matter how small, would be appreciated.

We are appealing to all GOCE members, and any other editors who wish to participate, to come and help us reduce the number of articles needing copyediting, as well as the backlog of requests. If you have not signed up yet, why not take a look at the current signatories and help us by adding your name and copyediting a few articles. Barnstars will be given to anyone who edits more than 4,000 words, with special awards for the top 5 in the categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words".

Non-free rationale for File:Liverpool FC.svg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Liverpool FC.svg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

If 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 Fadzilah Kamsah 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so 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. 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Epeefleche (talk) 21:25, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Professional Squash Association.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Professional Squash Association.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:08, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
