File copyright problem with File:Trilogy Competition Select Fire White Background.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Trilogy Competition Select Fire White Background.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 01:40, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Trilogy Competition Select Fire White Background.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Trilogy Competition Select Fire White Background.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.

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 01:40, 8 September 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 01:40, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Super Mario Bros. z

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Super Mario Bros. z requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. HalfShadow 20:56, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mail(armour)

Hello, your edits to this article are not helping anything in an already bad article. References can not just be from some web site article with no references and you can not just copy whole sections of an article and cut and paste the information into an existing article. Do a google book search and find a PUBLISHED source that someone can go back and read to see if the information is accurate. Read this guide first. There are plenty of books and allowable sources published on the subject to find reliable references in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability Samuraiantiqueworld (talk) 23:36, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- The references you used are from a web site article, were did the writer of the article get his information? Just because an article was badly written is not excuse to continue in that direction. References are supposed to come whenever possible from verifiable sources such as published books. To get actual verifiable references you can do a google book search using the terms such as "chain mail,mail armour, chain armor" etc and see what books come up, then you read these books and see if you can find information which confirms what the article says of not. This process takes time and I am already working on trying to salvage several butchered unreferenced crappy articles but in the meantime adding more unreferenced of not properly referenced information makes no sense. If you want to actually help that would be great but adding more material before checking and verifying the material already posted is not the way to go. What I do is make a list of references on the articles talk page and then start reading...take a look here on the article "jutte". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Jutte If you are serious about helping then start finding some real references that can not be challenged by anyone.
