How to Add Images

How to add images without deletion .... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saein Hamza (talk • contribs) 15:26, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

To add an image to Wikipedia, it needs to be free or under fair use. And, if it is fair use, it needs a fair use rationale. The images you've uploaded were copyrighted, and presented without a rationale, so they were quickly deleted. Copyright law on Wikipedia is confusing, but you can read Wikipedia:Finding images tutorial for more information about finding free content, and Wikipedia:Non-free content to see if any pictures of Tanveer Ashraf Bhatti or Azad Chaiwala qualify for fair use. Good luck on any future articles, Tenpop421 (talk) 15:52, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages

Please note that disambiguation pages like Robert Brown are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:

• Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
• Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
• Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
• Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
• Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
• Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory
• Do not add articles to acronym or initials disambiguation pages unless the person or entity is widely known by that name (in which case it should be stated in the linked article).

Thank you. Leschnei (talk) 23:08, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Apologies, i was going by MOS:DABRL, which states red links should not be used if the article is "unlikely ever to be written, or are likely to be removed as insufficiently notable topics". I assumed that inclusion in the DNB was enough to warrant notability, and likely later creation. I won't include such red links in the future if you think its unwarranted. Thanks, Tenpop421 (talk) 23:26, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

The sentence before the one that you quoted says that "A link to a non-existent article (a "red link") should only be included on a disambiguation page when a linked article (not just other disambiguation pages) also includes that red link". In other words, it's perfectly fine to include a red link under the conditions that you quoted, but the entry should also include a 'blue link' and that linked article should use the red link. Hopefully someone will write articles for Robert Brown (painter) and Robert Brown (divine) (maybe you?) or mention them in another article, but until they do, there is nothing for readers to click on to find out more about them. Leschnei (talk) 00:11, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Noted, will check for blue links in future. Thanks, Tenpop421 (talk) 00:17, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Philip Stell

Please take more care when editing postnominals (or doing anything else): he was a brilliant man but not an FRS. PamD 08:41, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

• Really, @PamD:? According to the Times' obituary, the BMJ's obituary, and Plarr's Lives of the Fellows, Philip Stell was an FRS. Do you have a contradicting source you're going by? Tenpop421 (talk) 17:12, 17 October 2019 (UTC) Disregard that, I am stupid. Advice noted. Thanks, Tenpop421 (talk) 17:15, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

• These things happen. Actually the more I look at his postnominals the more problems I see:

• Order: when I created the article I probably copied the BMJ, but I now think MBE goes first according to more general style guides - see Post-nominal_letters#Civil_usage_in_the_UK which seems pretty definite about it. Have moved the MBE to first place.
• FRCSEd. I don't think that FRCSE is used. See Template_talk:Post-nominals/GBR#FRCSEd - have tried to fix it, unsuccessfully as yet, and now got to go out! Hoping to remember to check back later. PamD 18:04, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

Information about orphaned articles

Hello, I recently put an orphan banner but your article may not have been, however I looked in the information of the page and there was no redirection, do you know how to know when an article is orphan or not to avoid the unnecessary installation of a banner? Thank you SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 22:03, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

• Hi @SparklingBlueMoon. My article was an orphan when you put the banner on the page, but I linked other pages to it shortly after. To check whether an article is an orphan, just consult 'What links here' under 'Tools' on the left hand side of the page. I think given the recency of the article, the orphan banner was a little unnecessary. It takes time to link an article to other articles! Best, Tenpop421 (talk) 22:08, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

  Thank you for this information, it is true that I rushed when I should have left time. I wish you good edits SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 22:13, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Landelinus buckle

Hi :) Re: your revert of my 14 Oct revision to the above-named article, I respectfully disagree that "without interruption" is the correct usage here, because the sentence describes the fact that a matter was discussed continu(ously/ally) over a period of decades: There certainly *was* interruption in that discussion; it was surely comprised of numerous submissions to academic publications, etc., which likely involved pauses of several months. This is why I think it was a continual discussion, rather than a continuous one; the latter reminds me of a long ticker tape, for example, but to say they continually do this thing means they keep returning to doing it. Just my eleven cents, Al Al Begamut (talk) 13:17, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi Al. I think I was probably too quick in my revert. I appreciate the courtesy in this comment and I see your point. Looking at various sources the semantic difference between "continually" and "continuously" seems to be a bit muddier than I thought. I would say that continuously can mean without any serious break (not literally with no interruption). I was working off the stock phrase (used, e.g., in blurbs of books) "continuously in print", but looking it up "continually in print" is used with about the same frequency (though applied to books in print, it does have something closer to the ticker-tape meaning). I don't like the connotation of frequency in "continually" (thought you might well doubt it has such a connotation). I'm not sure which to prefer. No consensus?
