Spam in LCPlayer

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on LCPlayer, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because LCPlayer is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting LCPlayer, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Fair use rationale for File:Группа Винтаж.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Группа Винтаж.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will 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. Eeekster (talk) 01:52, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Группа Винтаж.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Группа Винтаж.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 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. Skier Dude (talk 04:36, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Search in multiple applications at once on Windows Phone

You say that Windows Phone can search at multiple applications at once (aka Universal Search). I do not see the feature and the references provided say it is not available. Could you explain why you say so? Maybe you can provide a better reference or video showing this feature. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.137.175.250 (talk) 16:45, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Windows Phone, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Verge (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Proposed deletion of Nokia PureView

The article Nokia PureView has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Written like an advertisement, not-notable enough to have it's own article.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Speedy deletion declined: Estanislao Fernández

Hello MewMeowth, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Estanislao Fernández, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: claims coverage in reliable sources, might at the very least deserve a merge or redirect to notable father's entry but definitely not deletion. If you are interested in learning more about how speedy deletion works, I have compiled a list of helpful pages at User:SoWhy/SDA. You can of course also contact me if you have questions. Thank you.

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for contravening Wikipedia's harassment policy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Your "Gestapo" remarks are reprehensible and unacceptable. Never do anything like that again. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 01:23, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

MewMeowth (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

While comparing another user to the Gestapo is considered a personal attack it was the only time I've ever done that (my second comment on Neutrality's talk page was an explanation of my original comment as the user had removed it from their talk page). The word Gestapo, while it understandably can evoke a number of emotions, was used in the adjective sense of the word in English meaning 'using the methods of the Gestapo.' As explained on my comment, I did not imply Neutrality was executing or torturing people and their response was in my opinion an overreaction, part of their bully-like tactics as displayed in their initial comment on my talk page. As per policy, only 'attacks that are particularly offensive or disruptive (such as physical threats, legal threats, or blatantly bigoted insults)' may be reported to ANI on 'first offenses and isolated incidents [clearly the case here.]' It seems to me that Neutrality's reaction and Cullen328's near-instant block were unwarranted and as administrators they should have a better understanding of the site policies.

It is important to note that the whole ordeal started after my first and only edit on Kayleigh McEnany's article (and on any U.S.-politics article for that matter) and it is the first time I've ever been brought up on ANI after 11 years and more than 1,000 edits on Wikipedia. The involved administrators' behaviour is especially worrisome considering it all stemmed from an edit on an article dealing with a contentious issue where both administrators seem to have vested interests in (Cullen328 is a self-declared Democrat and let's compare Neutrality's edit (after reverting mine) with EdJF's edit afterwards, an example of using encyclopedic language instead of using loaded words such as 'in fact,' 'indeed,' or 'repeatedly' all of which Neutrality was using.) The bully-like tactics of the involved administrators are extremely off-putting to other editors that are not usually involved in contentious articles and who like me, most of their contributions are simply an attempt to improve what I considered to be un-encyclopedic language on an article I simply stumbled upon on. MewMeowth (talk) 00:50, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Please see WP:NOTTHEM. Also, I disagree that this block was unwarranted. If you want to go around comparing people to the Gestapo, perhaps you should stick to social media. English Wikipedia does not allow this kind of incivility. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:58, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

---

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I will leave the decision about your block to another administrator. But I will note that you learned that I am a Democrat in the context of me stating on my user page that I had written a biography about a Republican, Norman Livermore, a close associate of Ronald Reagan, and that biography was quite favorable because Livermore was a person of integrity. I can state with 100% confidence that I would have blocked any editor of any political persuasion who made the type of reprehensible personal attack that you made. I have blocked nearly 2500 disruptive editors and you could study and parse all of my blocks and you would find no political bias whatsover. So, I advise you to conduct yourself differently in the future. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 01:08, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

As an entirely uninvolved administrator (who lives in the UK and is not particularly interested in US politics), I would have done exactly what Cullen328 did, except I might have enacted a longer block. An editor put a couple of standard templates on your page - templates that explicitly say they are standard notifications and not accusations of wrongdoing. Sure, they're not exactly friendly barnstars, but to compare them with the actions of the Nazi secret police is not just offensive, it's also mind-blowingly inflated hyperbole. To do it once is out of line, but if you'd apologised and agreed not to do it again we wouldn't be here. When you refused to step away from it when challenged at ANI, you left admins with no choice but to block you. Don't blame anyone else for that - it's on you. I'd advise you to reflect on that.

I'm not an admin, but maybe that's better because you won't feel I'm an abuse admin. You said at ANI "You left a notice stating I have shown interest in pseudo-science, which is absolutely not true." I had a quick look at Special:Contributions/MewMeowth and can see you edited Template:COVID-19 pandemic and created Li-Meng Yan. From the latter edit summary I see Yan is a virologist and also that you added her to to the template. I did see some mention of "whistleblower" but for the purpose of this comment, it's irrelevant. I likewise do not know or care about anything else about your edits. (I have not checked out the diffs.) The articles involved in the edits are enough to tell me that it was appropriate to give you an alert about the discretionary sanctions process for pseudo science and fringe science. As the alert specifically says, the appropriateness of your edits is also besides the point when it comes to giving these alerts. The alerts just let you know if the special care you need to take when editing such topics, and also allow you to be sanctioned if you do not take the necessary care. If you edits were already problem free, then you would have nothing to worry about. Again I do not know and do not care if that's the case for the purpose of these alerts.

I should clarify I do not know why Neutrality gave you the alerts. My point was simply from checking your contribution history, it's trivial to see you are editing in an area where the pseudoscience and fringe science discretionary sanctions regime could apply, and therefore giving an alert was reasonable.
