  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - SUN EYE 1 16:45, 15 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the guidance. I was only testing things and never knew there exist a https://test.wiki.x.io/wiki/ page.

Orphaned non-free image File:Vikram, from Mahaan, Mahaan.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Vikram, from Mahaan, Mahaan.jpg. 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:34, 16 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Chiyaan61 announcement poster, Chiyaan61.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Chiyaan61 announcement poster, Chiyaan61.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 seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 13:28, 17 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

the image used is an non-free promotional content and i think it comes under fair usage policy. AvRam (talk) 14:52, 17 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia uses a more strict policy than fair use. Any non-freeimage must meet all of the non-free content criteria. If you are challenging the deletion, you need to post the reason at the file's talk page where an administrator will review it before making a decision. -- Whpq (talk) 16:53, 17 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Neelan K. Sekar

edit
 

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 Neelan K. Sekar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Neelan K. Sekar. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, 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 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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

thanks for letting me knew about the discussion.
How can i participate on this ?

please be more careful

Hi. While using Twinkle you seem to have mistakenly nominated the page about Twinkle for speedy deletion, also sending a notification to User talk:AzaToth in the semi-automated process. I understand that as a new editor you might make mistakes with these tools. That said, I'm concerned that you did not realize what you did nor did you make any effort to undo the damage done (which was fixed by other editors). You have no user rights at present and that condition may continue if you have difficulty taking care in your editing. Chris Troutman (talk) 16:48, 12 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Twinkle. Cassiopeia talk 01:45, 13 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
