Duplicate images uploaded

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:An-12 cub.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:A2.jpg. The copy called Image:A2.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 07:31, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Image:An-12 cub.jpg

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Image:An-12 cub.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD i4.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Russavia 02:53, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File:JKIA in 2010.JPG missing description details

[edit]
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:JKIA in 2010.JPG is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Mrseacow (talk) 03:30, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

[edit]

Hello Arthur, I'm working on the 2011 Nairobi pipeline fire article, I wondered if you are able to contribute? EdwardLane (talk) 10:19, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Arthur, I'm not sure if you can help or not - but it appears from your user page that you're based in Kenya - and I know that Kenya is rather a large place (so perhaps you're nowhere near Nairobi), but even if Nairobi is on the far side of the country you have an advantage over me when it comes to recognizing names and politicians. I just wondered if there has been any follow up media coverage on the pipeline fire (or the recent tanker fire) (it might not be in english so perhaps I can't find it on a google search?) - and perhaps you can spot any errors I might have made - I might have accidentally said the wrong person was president or used the wrong title and called him prime minister. I think I got it right but just having a native of the country casting an eye over the article seemed like a good idea.

Up to you if you think there is anything worth adding/fixing or not. EdwardLane (talk) 08:55, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Panorama of United Nations Office at Nairobi.png

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Panorama of United Nations Office at Nairobi.png. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

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

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

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 13:36, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Your addition to Ancentus Akuku has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. I know you added this material two years ago, but this policy still applies, especially as your contributions appear to be blatantly copied from this article. — Francophonie&Androphilie (Je vous invite à me parler) 10:06, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Call for Wikipedians in Residence in Africa

Hello,

I hope you are well and thriving!! WikiAfrica has just put out a call for two Wikipedians in Residence. One in Cape Town at WikiAfrica, at the Africa Centre; and the other for WikiAfrica Cameroon in Douala, at doual’art. If you are interested, please contact either Marilyn [marilyn.doualabell@doualart.org] for the WikiAfrica Cameroon call or Isla [islahf@africacentre.net] for the WikiAfrica position in Cape Town.

If you are not interested in applying, I would be very grateful if you could spread this call far and wide among your networks to ensure that both projects get excellent candidates. Here is the link for the information page: http://www.wikiafrica.net/two-wikipedians-in-residence-for-africa/

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited David Kimaiyo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Al Shabaab. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:46, 3 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Invite to the African Destubathon

[edit]

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing, whether it's a river in Malawi, a Nigerian footballer, or a South African civil rights activist, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. For those of you who signed up to the North African contest, that will hopefully be held in the new year. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
