File permission problem with File:Aircraft tire growth and minimum clearance allowance.png

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Aircraft tire growth and minimum clearance allowance.png. 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}} 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. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 19:14, 26 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

It's not a problem as the owner (Goodyear) I listed himself is not the originator of the graphic either. The originator is supposed to be from Sonny T. Chai and William H. Mason"Landing gear integration in aircraft conceptual design". The same graphic is in chapter 6 page 50. I just choose to take one from a professional for more practical credibility.

Qaher 313

edit

Your edit mentions that the Iranian article is "In defense to international critique". Do you have proof for that? Did Iran publish it for that reason ? It is just your strange assumption.

Do not add emotional, journalistic expressions. Sarmadys (talk) 14:19, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

It's more than obvious. If Iran didn't do it in defense of international critique why would Iran not publish it when it was unveiled like everyone else. You demand articles saying so, and more than one was given. What else do you want? Check the logs. You are being hypocritical accepting articles by the same aviation journalist (David Cenciotti) when it was convenient and dismissing others when not. Instead of dismantling political issues you further them by your edits. You gave named journalist expert titles when it was convenient while dismissing others when not. None were correct. I corrected those with articles & profiles stating their status. You did add your own opinion yourself. You diverted from the statement in the article quotations and added your own wording that diverted impressions. I'm sorry but unlike my article and news contribution you did more modification than not. It appears you are the one who has a problem here. Otherwise why would you challenge everyone writing on that article? Aren't you the one who is actually emotional? Mightyname (talk) 16:19, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
I did object to the Aviationist.com website, not the Flight global (David Cenciotti). I objected to your added phrase and the conclusion which was NOT from the article. The conclusion that the list of spaecifications published by MehrNews did not match the mockup was your, not David Cenciotti's. MehrNews is a news agency. It publishes follow-ups to different stories. That does not mean it is in response to anything.Sarmadys (talk) 17:05, 10 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
If you haven't realized the Aviationist.com is by David Cenciotti, the primary source. Flight global citing him doesn't change the fact that it's the primary and that it's accepted by other experts or aviation publishers. MehrNews happens to be the Iranian newsite to the world. You got to be ignorant not to realize it has governmental influence written all over it. Mightyname (talk) 11:56, 12 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Storm SRTV at AfC

edit

I'm reviewing your submission at Articles for Creation. Could you explain why you've named this article Storm SRTV instead of GAARV? It would seem the military will use the term GAARV to refer to the vehicle instead of the commercial name. We don't yet have an article for the GAARV so I'm thinking this article would belong there. Please advise. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:43, 4 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Simple, GAARV is the abbreviation of the project, competition, bid and award. It's not the vehicle's real name. People don't call the F-22 the ATF either. I admit over time people may come to call it that it just depends on popularity of use. At this point I decided to go with the normal nomenclature scheme for products, meaning producer name + product name + number etc. And it may not be exclusively be used for this role or sercive either.Mightyname (talk) 00:09, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Ok. I spelled out SRTV to avoid the little-known acronym in the title. Create a redirect at Storm SRTV if you so choose. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:37, 7 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at AfC Storm Search and Rescue Tactical Vehicle was accepted

edit

Replaceable fair use File:Combustion efficiency of aircraft gas turbines.svg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Combustion efficiency of aircraft gas turbines.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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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 (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 18:25, 12 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

The graphic is already own created media via a SVG file by redrawing the very photographic graphic from the original source. But whatever. Mightyname (talk) 10:34, 16 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi

edit

Nice to see you back. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:37, 30 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. I'm looking up some project request lists to see if there's something with enough sources to create articles about. There are just too many requests with little to go on, though. Mightyname (talk) 18:20, 1 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi

edit

You wanted 2013 Xinjiang ethnic clashes deleted. Why? All the best: Rich Farmbrough20:56, 12 August 2014 (UTC).

As I already said on the talk page the article only lists the links to those articles without any content of its own. And those are also covered in more detail in another collection and summary of the overall theme: Xinjiang conflict. If you want something like per year listing then it would lead to dispersed links & information yet does not contribute anything. It's not helpful and it's more like censorship by making things hard to find. You could as well create a full timeline listing of all years. This, too, has been covered by the infobox in the Xinjiang conflict article. It's my suggestion to keep things neat, concise and easy to find. Mightyname (talk) 02:04, 13 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Mitsubishi X-2 Shinshin

edit

The article you created, Mitsubishi X-2, is redundant to the Mitsubishi ATD-X Shinshin article, which I have moved to Mitsubishi X-2 Shinshin. I've redirected the page you created to the new title, but I didn't copy over any of the information you added. Feel free to look through the new article and in any missing information from the Mitsubishi X-2 page. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 08:32, 30 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
