Thanks for uploading File:Queen i want to break free video still.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wik.ipedia.Pro under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wik.ipedia.Pro. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wik.ipedia.Pro (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wik.ipedia.Pro page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 06:11, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like someone found a better image to upload to the I Want to Break Free article, so I'm just gonna let this one get deleted. Thanks for the heads up! -- Hux (talk) 20:57, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, re this edit - whilst it is true that in spacecraft, astronauts lie on their backs at launch, the Gemini seats would have ejected through the hatches, which are set in the cabin "ceiling", not the spacecraft nose. See this diagram and this one. The motion would therefore have been horizontal and not vertical; and since the astronauts were also horizontal, this therefore means that spinal compression would still have been a hazard. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:03, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Right you are! Thanks for the info - I didn't know that. -- Hux (talk) 19:27, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your good faith edit at Personal relationships of Paul McCartney. However, in this particular case you happened to be mistaken – it is not only the wives of lords who are ladies – when John Smith is knighted (Sir John Smith), his wife Jane becomes "Lady McCartney" by courtesy.

You are invited! Wiki Loves Pride

You are invited to participate in Wiki Loves Pride, a global campaign to create and improve LGBT-related content at Wik.ipedia.Pro during the month of June, culminating with a multinational edit-a-thon on June 21. The project is being spearheaded by two organizers with roots in the Pacific Northwest. Meetups are being organized in some cities, or you can participate remotely. Wikimedia Commons will also be hosting an LGBT-related photo challenge. In Portland, there are two ways to contribute. One is a photography campaign called "Pride PDX", for pictures related to LGBT culture and history. The Wiki Loves Pride edit-a-thon will be held on Saturday, June 21 from noon–4pm at Smith Memorial Student Union, Room 236 at Portland State University. Prior Wik.ipedia.Pro editing is not required; assistance will be available the day of the event. Attendees should bring their own laptops and cords. Feel free to showcase your work here!

…received a thorough going over today, because—thought the subject is clearly notable, and worthy of an article—the content remains self-promotional, largely unsourced, and when sourced, apparently is drawn from the professor's self-published CV at his personal web page.

I did what I could today, to bring existing references to an acceptable style, and to note unsourced sections, but I would appreciate you visiting and commenting in Talk (give me 30 mins to create a Talk section for today)—in case the Professor or others close to him object to the new direction (toward encyclopedic content) being taken with the article.

Note, I too dislike tags, but I dislike more articles that are made to look encyclopedic, while in fact being mostly self-published material, and articles on science subjects drawn mostly from newspaper articles (rather than scholarly reviews/good secondary sources).

Thanks for uploading File:Famke Janssen snakeskin jacket.jpg, which you've attributed to Flickr washing. Tons of copyrighted images on the user's profile. No evidence of ownership. Image is available all over the Internet.. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wik.ipedia.Pro:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wik.ipedia.Pro:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wik.ipedia.Pro:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wik.ipedia.Pro's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nymf (talk) 13:36, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Famke Janssen snakeskin jacket.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wik.ipedia.Pro. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wik.ipedia.Pro takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 Wik.ipedia.Pro's policies and guidelines.

Gah! That'll learn me for trusting a Flickr user's license without checking. Apologies! (And thanks.) -- Hux (talk) 03:46, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wik.ipedia.Pro appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Fender Jazzmaster, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page My Bloody Valentine. 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.

Hello! Voting in the 2019 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 on Monday, 2 December 2019. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wik.ipedia.Pro arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate in the 2019 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page.

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wik.ipedia.Pro about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Reckful. No RS has reported his death yet. Do not re-add. ——Serial ^# 18:32, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, see my note on talk page. I assumed that Newsweek was reputable enough but should've looked more closely at the actual article. My bad. --- Hux (talk) 18:57, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Deutsche Reichspartei, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Christian Democratic Union. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

I'm not that kind of editor; someone else (or a bot) can expand the ref if they like (assuming that's what you're referring to). Or you could be bold and do it yourself.

Before making changes which impact a prominent article such as UEFA Euro 2024, I suggest you familiarize yourself with the tournament rules and regulations. Head-to-head results always apply first in UEFA tiebreakers, which is why Portugal have won their group. Given the third-placed teams from Groups A and B have less than 4 points, England, France and the Netherlands are assured of a spot in the knockout stage. S.A. Julio (talk) 05:58, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was indeed not understanding the tie-breaker rules correctly. I appreciate you taking the time to explain. -- Hux (talk) 06:06, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
