User talk:Ross-c

Hi Ross-c, I saw your question on Wikipedia:Help_desk/Archive_6 and it is quite similar to mine on the current Wikipedia:Help_desk. I have been thinking about the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Fact_and_Reference_Check and think that, particularly for these the Internet_Archive should be used. I am interested in your ideas for a bot. PeterGrecian 17:13, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Hello Ross-c and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Unverified image

Thanks for uploading the image

Image:Karn.jpg

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the image and I'll tag it for you. Thanks, Kbh3rd 01:13, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Image:Neil Finn.jpg has been listed for deletion

An image or media file you have uploaded, Image:Neil Finn.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Image:Barbieri.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Barbieri.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Chowbok ☠ 04:54, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:River Wreake 15 Sept 2007.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Dscf0003.jpg.

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Ross-c! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 325 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Arthur Baysting - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Barbara Gaskin - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Re: Hans Kammerlander

Sorry, I am not an admin, so I'm definitely not the admin who deleted the previous version, which only admins can do, and never saw the previous version, which only admins can now see. Since the new article has the same title (which is proper), I can no longer see the previous deletion to note the deleting admin, which I did not think to do at the Help desk, though I will in the future. For now, I will make changes to the article, according to Wikipedia's Manual of Style (WP:MOS) starting with WP:YEARLINK. Dru of Id (talk) 21:55, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see where I became confused. I thought the reference to you was that you deleted the article. But, it was you telling me that the article had been deleted. Many apologies. Ross-c (talk) 21:59, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Would Category:Italian ski mountaineers be apt? See Ski mountaineering.

The German Wikipedia article Kammerlander here is much more extensive, although frequently referenced to self-published/non-independent works; a bot will most likely link his pages soon. The bibliography section there has more works, though articles do not need to have every detail. I believe it is unlikely that it will be speedily deleted or nominated for deletion in the future, as I think you've firmly established his notability to Wikipedia standards. I took his bibliography out of citebook format because repeating his name ten times in ten lines would likely fall under WP:PUFFERY; ten publications with various publishers over decades is impressive on its own, repeating his name so often seems like trying too hard. Thanks for the article, your effort, & your time. Dru of Id (talk) 14:23, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Hans Kammerlander, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Italian and Korean (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Re: Charles Clement Johnston

Copied from Wikipedia:New contributors' help page/questions#CongBio

The fact that you referenced from Find a Grave was also in his congressional bio, so I removed findagrave as a reference and moved it to an external link. Find a Grave is user-submitted, so should not be used when a more reliable source can be cited (although fine for information shown on grave markers). I also added the {{Bioguide}} attribution and the Virginia 22nd congressional district succession box. Note that Template:Find a Grave is available.

Note also that if you copy an article title from the article, the underscores do not show, which is mainly important at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion submissions, as it limits the linked search results. Dru of Id (talk) 06:05, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No article with this title has ever existed, and I can't find anything with a similar title in my recent deletions. In general, being related to someone notable doesn't transfer their notability, you need to be notable in your own right. FJimfbleak - talk to me? 16:29, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but they are proper articles with lots of info and references. This basically said "mother of Brian, wife of Murry", no refs (and it had already been deleted previously). At best, this should only be a redirect to her husband or son Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:43, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Use bold for the article title when using it for the start of the lead sentence
don't use "b." and "d.": when both dates are known, use a range; otherwise use "born" or "died"
don't link dates - see WP:MOSNUM

The article Luke Jackson (singer) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.
