License tagging for File:HildaWS-214x300.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:HildaWS-214x300.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited She-She-She Camps, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page FERA.

Encouragement

[edit]

When I was a new editor like you, I was alarmed by some of the messages that kept appearing on my talk page that let me know about all the mistakes that I had made. I got a little discouraged over this and didn't know or interact with any other editors. I begin to edit on Wikipedia in 2007, but didn't even get one message of any kind from another editor or bot until late 2013! At that time, I even doubted the existence of other editors since I had never heard from any of them. THEN the very first message I got from anyone was from an administrator that said she was going to BAN me from editing because I had written some spam! How about that for a first message?

Anyway, the purpose of this message is to let you know that you can delete anything from your talk page that you want. I've deleted some things, things that other editors wrote that weren't very nice. So this message is to encourage you in your writing. Your work has been quite amazing for being so new. You learn SO quickly and with so many interesting facts and info. Isn't that photo on Henning amazing? I was so lucky to find it - and it was copyright free. I'll do some more editing to help you out, but you are learning so fast that you are not going to need me for very much longer. I am enjoying helping. The Very Best Regards,

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vulcan blazers (May 13)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dodger67 was:
This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Vulcan blazers

[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 Draft:Vulcan blazers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of SMOKESTACK HARDY

[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 SMOKESTACK HARDY requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Hi. I'm confused too. The version I deleted contained no information, just a question from you. And there is no such page as User:BeeCeePhoto/SMOKESTACK HARDY. The log suggests that User:RHaworth restored the deleted revisions, but I don't see them. Deb (talk) 11:33, 14 May 2015 (UTC) ‎[reply]

I found it! The draft is currently located at User:BeeCeePhoto/Smokestack Hardy where it should be improved before submitting it for review at AFC. It is currently not in an acceptable state. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:40, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, any thoughts as to whats lacking, or the direction thats missing? I'm no expert, so speculation about the nature of Hardys peculiar obsession with fires, and the compulsion he had with keeping records with a germanic mindset to details points to him suffering a form of Asperger syndrome, which it would be interesting to explore, but he was normal in most respects.

I have encountered others who have the same complusion, in the 70's I hung out with a crew of Ham Radio Operators, who went about their lives normally, but had no other real interests (other than bowling league) who entered a world of postcards in their radio rooms. Some had 3000 or more collected, from around the world, that was a response sent them from a midnight contact, however brief, on the radio. Every night they entered that world, and attempted to make contact thru a ionosphere bounced signal propagated around the globe to set up a postcard mailing. Thousands of hours, night after night, mountains of days tweaking their rigs and antennas, all in pursuit of another postcard. Kind of like wikipedia editors, if you catch my drift. Robco311 11:44, 14 May 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by BeeCeePhoto (talk • contribs)

I'd have to agree with Dodger - lots of work needed. I'd recommend you spend some time looking at other articles and noting how they differ. There's little evidence of notability. Deb (talk) 13:14, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Your other draft Draft:Vulcan blazers is becomming fairly good - after a bit of a false start - so follow your own example. She-She-She Camps, which you created earlier, is also a quite decent example. It seems like you do actually know what an article is supposed to look like. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 13:34, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am very disappointed to see phrases such as "how to find it" or "I don't see them". If you follow the red link to the original page do you not see the words "moved page"? Surely you automatically follow the link to the stated destination of the move? Also Deb and BeeCeePhoto, are you aware of a useful report called contribs history which shows where the text has landed up?
I have to admit that I and probably Zackmann08 (talk · contribs) saw the shouted title and automatically assumed vandalism. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:37, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • BeeCeePhoto, I assume you are using a custom signature in your preferences that signs you as Robco311. By all means call yourself by a different name but will you please set up a signature that provides a link to your user page, your talk page or your contributions history, preferably all three so that the SignBot does not keep following you around. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:17, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Some pointers

[edit]

Okay, here are some issues with your first sentence:

"Arthur Smokestack Hardy is a professional fire Buff, Photographer, Black Fire Historian and collector of fire memorabilia who was the first African-American firefighter in Baltimore."

The words Buff, Photographer, Black, Fire and Historian should not have capital letters. You have linked "professional fire Buff" with a term that doesn't exist in wikipedia (hence the red text) and, even if it did exist, it does not mean anything like "professional fire Buff". Presumably "Smokestack" is a nickname, not a real name, so it should be inside quotation marks. And you should provide a citation for him being the first African-American firefighter in Baltimore. Deb (talk) 17:47, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, noted. The Professional fire buff is a pejorative, an inside joke among police and firemen. They buy 2-way radios, know the slang used on the job, and get there to a 'job' before the uniforms do. I will adjust it to 'fire buff', as this guy was the most famous of them all. I don't want to explain all the details, like 'buff' from the stand-arounds at a fire in the 1890's snug and warm in their buffalo coats watching but not helping, and getting water thrown on them... 'black fire historian' because he chased that info down relentlessly, so there is room for improvement in the phrasing that I won't see until tomorrow. It helps to have someone point this out now, while it's still in draft... Thanks Robco311 18:12, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

[edit]

Please take care when adding content to the Vulcan Blazers draft that you do not simply copy text directly from the sources - you must restate the information in your own words. Directly copying is not permitted (it is in fact illegal, not merely a Wikipedia rule). And before you ask, no it does not make a difference if it's from the subject's own website or even if you personally are the author of the original source text - it is still copyright of the website owner.

A paragraph has been copied from this source and another from this one (there is also a correctly done direct quote from that source). You may make limited use of direct quotes if the particular wording in the source is important enough to preserve. Such quotes must however be clearly marked as quotes by punctuation and the source must be referenced directly after the closing quotation mark. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 13:36, 15 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thats the legal jargon that I'm having issue with. Perhaps I can find a way to reword, but I originally referenced it along with all the other legal stuff. Robco311 (talk) 13:54, 15 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have just patrolled (and worked on) the article you created. The topic is very interesting. I would just like to invite you to read wp:COATRACK. Article content really has to stay on topic. Long digressions about conditions at the the time for blacks, or the subjects daughter, or husband, or school, or biographer etc. may be interesting, but they just don't belong in the article. I have cut down to directly related content and reorganized into more standard sections. If I accidentally removed relevant, on-topic content or sources, please feel free to restore it. You can copy paste it from old versions of the article. Anyways, great topic and good start. Happy editing! Happy Squirrel (talk) 01:49, 29 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed edits

[edit]

You have a long rant on Institutional racism regarding aboriginal issues.You have also said the following:


The collective failure of an organization to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their colour, culture, or ethnic origin. Thats what defines Institutional Racism. I wrote of the failure of the church to provide services in canada to the ethnic children rendered into its care, not about the residential schools. You removed that and replaced it with plagarized material explaining the residential schools. The fact that the church ran the schools needed that backdrop to show the continued, ingrained racism, not of the individuals, but of the system that allowed social workers(gov't) to remove babies from mothers, children from their families, and deliver them to a chop shop (residential schools) where TB infected kids were bedded with healthy kids whom had no immunities, abused and neglected, and left dying at a higher rate than if they had been left alone in their pagan villages. The worst of the abuse was doled out to the ones who were not christians (by Clerics and staff). Stop trying, you cannot change the past. If you want to write about the schools, be my guest. I'm writing about institutional racism - the two are not the same Robco311 (talk) 19:16, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This -[1] details the lenghts to which others have gone to remove and whitewash the extent of the crimes perpetrated against the First Nations. 2 paragraphs is not enough to go into all the attempts to cover up a 'final solution', a termed coined at the highest level of government 35 years prior to the NAZI's using it for their own pogroms against their victims. There is no need to link it to the main article, the citations in it validate every sentence made. Stories of buried priests babies being dug up and moved when the schools closed should horrify everyone, you choose to remove that truth to serve your agenda. The section is not about the Aboriginal Truth and Reconciliation Commission, it is about institutional racism. Let it stand for others to hack at, you should stand away. Robco311 (talk) 08:33, 19 June 2015 (UTC)


I have told you to put this on other well-moderated sites like the Canadian Indian residential school system or other well-moderated Wikipedia pages, and you refuse to do so. WHY? Beyond the fact that I advised that feedback from other editors help support your statements, and beyond the fact that they would probably recommend better choice of words, and beyond the fact that it would prevent an edit war, why are you resistant in doing this? It seems that if you want people to know about the residential school system, then you should tell them. You rant about not whitewashing the issue and removing the truth, and people not talking about what happened in the residential school system, but when I encourage you to tell people about it (through editing Wikipedia pages), you do nothing. You are being hypocritical. You rant that people shouldn't be silent on the residential school experience, but then you are silent on the experience.DivaNtrainin (talk) 22:28, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your timetable for me advancing your agenda is not up for discussion. I am not editing the residential scchools, which you seen intent on whitewashing, I am discussing why systematic racism occurs in institutions, and you want to clear the churches of involvement. They were involved, and you are vandalizing pages to neutralize their involvement, adding sentences to make it seem as if what happened was bad, but we don't do that anymore.(But only in the Canada section...) Your attempts to show that I should be editing an unrelated topic (residential schools) rather than showing truths about Institutional racism perpetrated by the gov't and the churches to further a racist agenda against an ethnic population smacks of... need I say it? (Institutional racism.) Making it seem that I'm refusing to edit the article on residential schools is a load of horsepucky. A nun throwing a child from the window of a three story building is an atrocity. You whitewashing articles that point out that this may have occurred is an atrocity. Your removal of sources detailing this occurred is an abomination. Your whitewashing the facts surrounding the violence perpetrated against native women, (a vagina brought to court to show what, the hole in it or that that person's life does not matter becuz' she was just an Injun...) Every article you deleted sentences and paragraphs from to try to change the facts to controversy are an affront to the tenets of good journalism, and deleting sources should be enough to get you banned permanently. this coming from a very bad writer...

Institutional racism

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 13:59, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I am someone who is aware of the situation....sources easy to find. See here. As for copy and pasting just need to add an attribution See Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. On a side note there is a tool for google books to help make the refs normal see this link. -- Moxy (talk) 13:31, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I hope we're talking about the same thing, The article that was noted after 2min and deleted by NeilN was the Australia section of Institutional racism. I had just transferred it from the sandbox and started adding the cites when he did that.

The portion with the copy and paste unsourced text that removed my 2 paragraphs is the Aboriginal Truth and Reconciliation Commission (Canada) titled section deleted by DivaNTrainin back a couple of days ago when she initiated an edit war over it. It was edited here[1] and dthe main portion deleted here [2]

Those were three great suggestions you just made, Thanks, I will try to make better use of them in the future. About the Canada reverts, I made sure to ref everything I put in my two paragraph with citations, but claiming that I was soapboxing the other editor replaced my text with the residential schools, which was not on topic. Yet it has been allowed to remain. Without sourcing. Or references. Or any explanation on how it refers to Institutional racism. Why is this not reverted by other editors? I defer to your greater experience at this than this bad writer.... Robco311 (talk) 13:50, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Watch inspection

[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 Watch inspection requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.ballwatch.com/global/index.php?option=com_company&task=history&lang=. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 removed 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vulcan blazers (January 27)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vulcan blazers (February 3)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by LaMona was:
You need to remove the long discussion from this - if you want to keep it, it can be move to the talk page. I marked some areas where you need cites (there are others, but I couldn't spend the time to go through the whole article). You probably have the info in the articles you have, and you can use articles more than once, but you need the cite close to the fact. (See wp:cite for the best way to do that.) You cannot cite blogs or other informal social media. Using the congressional record is iffy because it is unedited speech, and is generally considered original research. Ditto court documents. The section head "Tax exemption denied" is contradicted in the text that follows.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Homer B. Roberts

[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Homer B. Roberts, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.collisionworksokc.com/2016/01/02/black-history-month-pioneering-african-american-in-the-automotive-industry-homer-b-roberts/.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Hi BeeCeePhoto. The copyvio detector shows your temporary page Talk:Edward Davis (automotive pioneer)/Temp is an 89.5 per cent match for the webpage http://www.detroittransithistory.info/AroundDetroit/EdDavis.html. This is only marginally better than the original page. Sorry, but I am deleting it. I see you have received warnings about adding copyright content to the website as far back as May 2015, so this is your final warning. Please don't do any more editing until you have read and understood our copyright policy. Any further copyright violations will result in you being blocked from editing. — Diannaa (talk) 21:12, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to be sure you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  — Diannaa (talk) 23:43, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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

Request reason:

As on the issues brought forward today, no administrator or anyone one else has noted on my talk page or in any message that I should stop trying to correct the sentences flagged as copyvio by re-writing or editing the text. For this reason I would think that anyone imposing a block would by at least thru courtesy, do so. If @ Diannaa (talk

To be unblocked, you need to convince us that you understand the copyright policy and undertake not to breach it in the future. You have not done so, and I am having trouble even parsing what you wrote below. BethNaught (talk) 09:48, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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.

BeeCeePhoto, I posted a final warning to stop adding copyright violations earlier today; it's immediately above the block notice. Posting copies of articles that you know violate copyright onto talk pages is not okay. You would know this if you had read and understood our copyright policy, a Wikipedia policy with legal considerations. You can't add copyright content anywhere on this wiki; not in articles, but also not in talk pages, sandboxes, or anywhere else. — Diannaa (talk) 00:06, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, that did not show up earlier, I was attempting to correct the copyvio. I'm still working with limited resources and can only check what I'm alerted to. It is not my intention to vandalise, I also work hard at not doing copy vio, all the info I use is referenced below the article. As I go over these I'm finding the vio to be on a page that didn't show up in my google searches while reading on the topics. It seems that after I remove the lines noted it's for something else. I also was unaware that 2-3 words constitute a copyvio, how are you to put facts or dates in if that is the case? I also see the quotes highlighted, even tho they are given attribution and sourced. Help me out here, to make this all work the pages where you talk dont always show what later appears, so your comms are in the dark. The corrections I did so far today I hi-lighted on the talk page to get assistance, not as a means to aggravate you or anyone else, I wanted to correct the piece, not vandalize... I took out the sentences by comparing to the website url, but you deleted it without letting me know if it was something else.... Robco311 (talk) 00:30, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All I can do here is repeat myself: You can't paste copyvio content onto talk page to work on it. — Diannaa (talk) 00:37, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
