Speedy deletion of Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, Virginia Capes

A tag has been placed on Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility, Virginia Capes 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 company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

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 (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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

your proposed deletion

I see the explicitly public domain page [1], which can be quoted exactly, and the publicly available and reliable site, [2] which can be used as a source, the public [3] and the published reliable periodical source at [4] and therefore am a little surprised at your request for deletion as Official Use Only. I intend to rewrite the article using these sources (removing the personal names except for the commanding officer, documented on the USN PD site) If you have any objections, please email me through my user page.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:VX-30 Bloodhound 700.jpg

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:VX-30 Bloodhound 700.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 23:07, 1 August 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 23:07, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:VX-30 Bloodhound400.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:VX-30 Bloodhound400.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:10, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

US Navy squadron designations

Hi, it would be nice, if you would name newly created pages for US Navy squadrons with numbers, as usual on Wikipedia. I know that the US Navy has changed in saying "Strike Fighter Squadron FOUR ONE" instead of "Strike Fighter Squadron 41" (pronounced "fourty-one"). Also the capital lettering is US Navy slang, and not common usage in English. Thank you Cobatfor (talk) 10:21, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:VX-30 Bloohound340.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:VX-30 Bloohound340.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

File permission problem with File:VX-30 Bloodhound 700.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:VX-30 Bloodhound 700.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 in|article name}} 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 21:27, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited U.S. Route 460 in Virginia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Elizabeth River. 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.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:KCEN HD 2015.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:KCEN HD 2015.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:42, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Navy Region Europe, Africa, Southwest Asia

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 Navy Region Europe, Africa, Southwest Asia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.cnic.navy.mil/regions/cnreurafswa/about/history.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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.

Re Naval Station Norfolk

I just saw your message over at WP:CP. I'm not an administrator or anything, but if Naval Station Norfolk is ultimately found to be a copyvio, I don't think anyone would fault you for moving part of its text over to Naval Station Norfolk Chambers Field. You properly attributed the text you moved, and like you said, the possibly infringing stuff at Naval Station Norfolk has been there for over 12 (!) years, so I think you'd be fine! /wiae /tlk 21:00, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Naval Support Activity Mechanicsburg. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:58, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Master-at-Arms Split/Revision

I was just wondering what decision was made when the U.S. Navy Master-at-Arms section was split from the previous article, and what decision was made to include information that is retained in the current edition? There are some aspects of the old article that I would like to see included in the current article.Taotaomona1977 (talk) 16:15, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

When I copied and pasted the article, I had to do some cleanup from the previous one. In the mix, some of it needed to be removed, because it made the article a little tough to read. All the previous information is in the old article's history (specifically, this diff, and if you want to try to reintroduce some of that into the new article, feel free. It just needs to be tweaked for length and readability. --Respectfully yours, KevCor360 (lets talk) 16:40, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

using US PD sources

To maintain attribution, it is necessary to indicate exactly what part of the article is copied from the source. If the entire article is, then say so, at least in the edit summary but better on the talk page as well.Otherwise it is difficult to distinguish from later additions from other sources.

Also, you must modify the material to at least bei n the format of a NPOV encyclopedia article. Your article on Center for Explosive Ordnance Disposal & Diving has a final line " which will upgrade our curriculum delivery technology " This is not appropriate in a WP article--it's purely promotional language. A government is quite capable of writing promotional descriptions of its activities,and we will delete it just the same as any other promotion. When you put it into an encyclopedia , remove the promotional parts to make a NPOV article. DGG ( talk ) 00:40, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
