Disputed fair use rationale for Image:No Mouth Box Front.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploadingImage:No Mouth Box Front.jpg.However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required byWikipedia:Non-free content.This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available fromWikipedia:Fair use rationale guidelineis an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as animage copyright tag;descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with ourcriteria for speedy deletion.If you have any questions, please ask them at themedia copyright questions page.Thank you.BetacommandBot(talk)16:00, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Win Lose or Draw.JPG
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading or contributing toFile:Win Lose or Draw.JPG.I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used undernon-free content criteria,but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go tothe file description page,and edit it to include anon-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting" File "from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described oncriteria for speedy deletion.If the file is already gone, you can still make arequest for undeletionand ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at theMedia copyright questions page.Thank you.Sfan00 IMG(talk)15:19, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 3
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you editedGayne Rescher,you added a link pointing to the disambiguation pageWashington(check to confirm|fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles.Read theFAQ• Join us at theDPL WikiProject.

flagicons and linking nationality in infoboxes
[edit]PerTemplate:Infobox personandWP:OVERLINK,there is no reason to be using flag icons or linking to nationality in infoboxes. There is no reason to believe that when some is described as being from the United States that anyone would need to do additional research by reading the article about the country.Alansohn(talk)18:12, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. I saw a flag icon in another info box, but now I understand that it is not be be used.Primogen(talk)21:08, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

People associated with comic book films
[edit]FYI: I understand that when you added the{{WikiProject Comics}}banner to people associated with Marvel Comics films, it was donein good faith.But theComic book films task forceis part of{{WikiProject Film}},which already covers so many articles, that it was decided (not by me) to exclude actors, filmmakers and screenwriters. These people are covered by the filmbio work group in{{WikiProject Biography}},and unless they arealsocomics creators, they should not be added to the comics project.Fortdj33(talk)18:42, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Primogen, a long shot as you haven't edited in a year, but you madethis editon Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines in 2006, adding a lot of behind the scenes development information. I have worked on developing the article significantly recently but am unable to source much of this info such as:
When Troika had not completed a playable Santa Monica hub with combat and discipline usage that met Activision's satisfaction after more than two years of development time, the publisher took several steps to bring closure to the troubled project. First, Activision increased the budget to add Troika's second development team to the project inMarch2004,after they had completed work onThe Temple of Elemental Evil.Next, it sent the game's Activision producer and two testers to work on-site at Troika's offices until the game was completed. Finally, it set a hard deadline ofSeptember 15for Troika to produce a Code Release Candidate. Troika delivered the Code Release Candidate on the required date, although not without taking a toll on the development team, as comments found in the game's files suggest: "#TJP: SEPT 15th I'm drunk. Hasn't this game shipped yet?"Due to the game's size and complexity, the Code Release Candidate took three weeks to test, but on onOctober 4,2004,Bloodlineswent Goldas Version 1.0. Since contractual obligations with Valve would not allowBloodlinesto be released before Valve's debut of the Source engine inHalf-Life 2,Activision did not publicly announce that the game had gone Gold and instead gave Troika an additional week to polish the game, after whichBloodlinesVersion 1.1 underwent another three weeks of testing. It was this second version ofBloodlinesthat shipped onNovember 16,2004-- the same day thatHalf-Life 2was released.
I was wondering if you could tell me where you got this info so that I could better source it, as otherwise the information would need to be removed and it would be a shame to lose useful information.Darkwarriorblake/SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE!22:02, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

Conflict of interest editing
[edit]Hi. I'm an administrator on Wikipedia. I wanted to drop a note on your talk page about editing articles with which you have aconflict of interest.Ideally, you should post to thearticle's talk pageand request edits using{{request edit}},though you're certainly free to correct hoaxes or vandalism. Assuming you really are who you claim to be (you never really know who you're talking to on the internet), it would be be big benefit to Wikipedia if you could contribute some of your knowledge of the video game industry. Just be careful about adding adjectives and adverbs to articles about you or your business interests. It's difficult to do so while maintaining aneutral point of view.NinjaRobotPirate(talk)16:27, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
