Conflict of interest[edit]

Do you have a connection to Miss Universe? Your edits seem promotional. if you are not connected with it, how is it you are uploading glossy promotional photos? --Cameron Scott (talk) 07:27, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

August 2009[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Miss Tourism Queen International 2009. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you.

Miss Universe Photos[edit]

Hey Mike, I'm an administrator on wikipedia and I've dropped by to let you know that I deleted the photos you uploaded of Miss Universe contestants. You marked the images as CC, meaning that they were effectively in the public domain, but the miss universe website notes that they reserve all copyrights. You also marked that an OTRS email had been sent to verify this license, but no license was found in our database. I know this seems very "shoot first, ask questions later", but I hope you can understand our position. If you are the copyright holder and it is your intend to release these photos under one of our compatible creative commons licenses, then please accept my apologies. All we need is either a note on the miss universe website stating that the photos in question are released under a CC license or we need you to email our OTRS team before you upload the photos in order to establish the license as well as your identity. If you are not the copyright holder, please note that our non-free content policy strictly limits the use of non-free images and media for living subjects. If you have any questions feel free to ask me on my talk page, the help desk, or simply place the text {{Help}} on your talk page and someone will be along to help you out.

A tag has been placed on Miss Tourism Queen International 2009, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. 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:MR WORLD 2009.gif)[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:MR WORLD 2009.gif. 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 on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. FileBot (talk) 01:39, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists.

Use of boldface[edit]

I have removed the unnecessary boldfaces (e.g. Argentina to Argentina) in the Miss Earth 2009 in lined with Wikipedia MOS:BOLD guidelines; use boldface only in headings, sections/subsections, table headers, definition list, and volume numbers. One of the most common mistakes in most articles in Wikipedia related to beauty pageants (like Miss Universe and Miss World, Miss International, and Miss Earth is the use of boldface when stating the name of participating countries and this is a clear violation with the Wikipedia: Manual of style, which is considered vandalism if one editor would correct it and someone would undo the correction. Please refer to the MOS:BOLD and let me know your feedback.--Richie Campbell (talk) 12:57, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Manual of Style[edit]

Hi Mike. Please take note of the following Wikipedia guidelines, as an FYI, as it relate to most of you edits (e.g. Miss Earth 2009):

FYI: When a flag icon is needed more than once, the flag-and-name template, for example {{flag|Japan}}, or its shorter variant {{flag|JPN}} should be used first, but may be reduced to {{flagicon|JPN}} in subsequent uses. However, some editors feel that some tables such as those containing sports statistics (example) are easier to read if {{flag}} is used throughout. See more details in this Wiki link: MOS:FLAG.

  • Icons should not be added for exclusively decorative purposes, because aesthetics are in the eye of the beholder: one reader's harmless decoration may be another reader's distraction. Hence, avoid adding icons that do not provide additional information (for example, adding a country's flag next to its name may not provide extra information about the subject of the article). Icons should serve an encyclopaedic purpose other than decoration. When icons are added excessively, they clutter the page and become redundant, as in this sportsperson's infobox. Reference: WP:ICONDECORATION

I'm looking forward to work with you in other articles because I can see your potential, but please provide a summary in your edits to better understand your revisions/edits. Take note that a minor edit box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the current and previous versions: typo corrections, formatting and presentational changes, rearrangement of text without modification of content, et cetera. While, By contrast, a major edit is one that should be reviewed for its acceptability to all concerned editors. Therefore, any change that affects the meaning of an article is not minor, even if the edit concerns a single word; for example, the addition or removal of "not", which can change the meaning of a sentence, is a major edit. See WP:MINOR for more details. let me know of your feedback. Thanks.--Richie Campbell (talk) 13:37, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Earth 2008[edit]

I agree with all your edits in the Miss Earth 2008 article except for the deletion of the references and other information related to the contestants. Please do not revert my edit since the info is supported by third party verifiable references, otherwise it will be construed as vandalism. Thanks.--Richie Campbell (talk) 04:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Miss Globe International. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Miss Globe International. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:07, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
