Better source request for File:Hildegard Trabant.jpg

edit

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 03:08, 13 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Explaining

edit

I patrolled your page. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all. DS (talk) 20:29, 22 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs

edit

Thank you for your recent articles, including Czesław Kukuczka, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:58, 28 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

edit

Thank you for your recent articles, including Czesław Kukuczka, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:58, 28 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hildegard Trabant, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Battery. 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.

Orphaned non-free image File:Hildegard Trabant.jpg

Hello Brewer Bob,

If it is not on the Stasi file then my statement is most likely incorrect, I have been cleaning up the English language pages of Berlin Wall victims using the pre-existing text. I think most of them are literal translations of the German language pages, so I wrote statement based on what the original text implied. Sorry for the error.

- Yungmemelord (talk) 23:20, 13 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I don't think she engaged in communication with her murderers, but I'm obligated to leave your edit alone; maybe she did, and you obviously had a reason for saying so. Stasi files and records are not all inclusive, and sometimes include lies. Thanks again for your interest in Frau Trabant. Brewer Bob (talk)
