Autoblock of 192.138.65.36 lifted.

Request handled by:  Netsnipe  ►  20:23, 24 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I suggest you inform your IT department at Fort Drum, New York that this address is still blacklisted as an open proxy by the Distributed Sender Blackhole List. Send this link: http://dsbl.org/listing?192.138.65.36 to them and they'll know what it means and what to do. --  Netsnipe  ►  20:23, 24 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --AbsolutDan (talk) 16:00, 13 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello - I deleted the links because Wikipedia is not intended to be a collection of links. It's also highly frowned upon to add links to websites that you run or are otherwise affiliated with (see WP:EL and WP:SPAM for further details). Lastly, external Wikis should almost always be avoided as sources of information (see Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Bulletin_boards.2C_wikis_and_posts_to_Usenet.
I do not have any knowledge of the Wookieepedia, but I did notice that someone else also does not like the link. Check out the talk page of WikiProject Star Wars (Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Star Wars). Considering this, I think those links should be removed too. You may wish to post a message to that project's talk page indicating that you wish to remove the links completely. Or you could just start removing them yourself. --AbsolutDan (talk) 15:30, 15 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image source problem with Image:Sucks Less.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Sucks Less.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:55, 27 August 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cholmes75 (chit chat) 22:55, 27 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Sucks Less.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Sucks Less.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 image 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cholmes75 (chit chat) 22:56, 27 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:35th home.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:35th home.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:41, 24 March 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. FASTILYsock(TALK) 00:41, 24 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:KenmoreCardinal.JPG

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:KenmoreCardinal.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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 18:08, 3 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
