Hey there. I notice you've been adding information on arms purchases and visits to the US. Although that may be useful, I think you're copy-and-pasting information from news articles without sources. Really you're inserting too much information - you should add a brief summary of what's happening - one or two lines - with full citations as used elsewhere in the article. Otherwise it forces someone else to clean it up.

Please summarise the material you added to a much briefer format and add citations. Thanks, John Smith's 11:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

[edit]


Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:NATO Troops with game interface.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Hi. It doesn't matter if the pricing is official, confirmed, or you have sources for it. The bottom line is, it's convention not to include them (other editors also think it's not relevant to the article). If people want to know what price a game is, they can check Amazon or their local shops. Just because information is useful doesn't mean it should be included in an article. Thanks! Fin© 07:54, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Wikipedia is for information, yes, but not all information is encyclopedic. Like I said above, just because information is useful doesn't mean it should be included. The table of the cost, deployment and recharge time of each tactical aid is one such piece of information. It's something you might find at GameFaqs, or in the game's manual itself, but it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. Hence, per WP:NOT, I removed it. Thanks! Fin© 10:13, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. I've removed the list of tactical aids again, as it read like a game guide/manual and was far too descriptive. Try to stay away from over describing minor elements of games, instead provide a short overview paragraph. Thanks! Fin© 13:25, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WiC Genre

[edit]

I changed the genre to RTT after a discussion in the talk section in which 3 people (including myself) were in favor of the change and one against. I made the change and put in a citation to an interview in which the developers described it as an RTT. If you think it should be RTS and not RTT then you should continue the discussion in the WiC article, and not just change revert it without saying anything. 24.167.151.237 18:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FYI

[edit]

I restored one of the wiki-links on the Taiwan military page to the Harpoon missile sale, as I don't think there was one previously on the page. But you were right to remove the other ones - they didn't all need to be linked. John Smith's 11:04, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User warnings.

[edit]

Hi Kliu, nice to meet a fellow game addict. ;-) Anyway, to answer your questions, you can find the most common templates here: User:AndonicO/Vandalism Templates (the actual page where all the templates are is too long, so I keep it there in case someone wants to know). For example, if the person vandalizing hasn't been given a warning, and the edit appears to be a test (for example, someone added "hi" at the top of the page), use a {{subst:test1}}, or a {{subst:uw-vandalism1}}. If it's their first warning, and it's severe vandalism (cursing, or if on a biography adding nonsense about the person), use a "level 2 warning" ({{subst:test2}}, or {{subst:uw-vandalism2}}. If it's their second time, and it's not severe vandalism, use a level 2. If it's the second time, and it is severe, use a level 3. Third time, non severe, you could use a level 3, or a level 4 warning. If it's the third, and it's severe, use a level 4, straight away. If they keep vandalizing after a level 4 (check the time on the warner's signature, and the time of the last edit to make sure it's actually after), report them to WP:AIV, and an administrator will block them quite soon. Hope that's not too confusing: if I didn't make myself clear, just say so. · AndonicO Talk 23:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. You could try the warnings at the sandbox: just copy and paste them as you see them here. · AndonicO Talk 23:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Plot Edits to World in Conflict

[edit]

My plot edits were a neutral change to the article, no view other than what is available to players of the game has been represented. All of my edits to the article can be verified from the in-game materials. Grammar edits were needed for better clarity and certain details, such as the reasons for the Soviet attacks, were summarized or, where redundant, left out in an effort to keep the article from violating Wikipedia article policy. Personal information, such as Colonel Sawyer's "crisis of conscience" during the war or Bannon's reference of guilt can be placed in a characters section if anyone is willing to start one (did he really have 'pangs of conscience' for the rest of his life?). Other information such as the Spetsnaz occupation of Liberty Island or the real reason for the defense of Fort Teller were added in as important plot points. The naval base at Norfolk is an educated guess as to the actual target since it is referred to only as "Norfolk" in the cinematic describing the aftermath of the Murmansk operation in the game. The painted still showing Soviet subs launching an attack on what appear to be military ships in harbor lend some credence to this. I have reverted the article back to my previous edit for these reasons.Voracious Reader 15:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. No, I'm not racist, and please do not jump to such completely rash decisions in the future. I'm simply following guidelines from Template_talk:Infobox_CVG/Syntax_Guide. They state, as regards release dates, "Use the first public non-festival release in the game's country of origin, as well as any English-language release dates available.". Taiwan is not English-language, and therefore, is not relevant. I'm removed it again in line with this guideline. Again, please do not use person attacks in the future, when you question an author's motive. Thanks. Fin© 09:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, again. As you created the article and added most of the content for it, please can you insert some citations and webpages? John Smith's 19:17, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, I have a suggestion. I've been looking at the "Sky Bow" articles. I thought it would make more sense if there was just one article for them, rather than three, given they're so short. Do I have your support to merge them at some point? John Smith's 19:24, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about the merger - Jerrch has already taken care of it! Just help improve the new article at Sky Bow as much as you can. John Smith's 21:26, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Picture request

[edit]

Kliu, this might sound really weird but when are you next in Taiwan? Only I was wondering if you or someone you know could take a few military Taiwanese pictures and then upload them on to the project. We're really missing pictures on the ROCN, specifically the Perry and Kang Ding frigates, as well as the Hai Lung submarines. There are some already here but they're fair use and likely to be deleted. Any chance you could help? John Smith's (talk) 20:34, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you could basically as many naval photos as you can up close and personal while on holiday that would really help the project. Hope you have a nice time there. :) John Smith's (talk) 22:03, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Could you please update your pictures with things like when you took it, what camera you took it with, etc. John Smith's (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with some photographs you uploaded

[edit]

I had a look on the MND website and some of the photos you uploaded and claimed as your own were on the website. I can only assume you downloaded them from there and accidentily thought they were your own.

Can you please go through the pictures you've uploaded and try to work out which are your own and which are copyrighted by the Taiwanese defence ministry. We can keep them, but we need to put the right tag on them (according to a picture already uploaded the gov says they're PD). John Smith's (talk) 12:39, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you list the ROCN/MND pictures that would help. But more importantly please try to find the URLs where you got them from - if you can't they'll eventually be deleted one way or another. Look on the MND website - there are lots of pictures there. Some are on the official gallery, others on other sub-pages. John Smith's (talk) 22:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing - please give the URL where you found the picture. You should be able to find them again on the MND website - just look hard on all the pages. John Smith's (talk) 10:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

[edit]

No time these days. As for the userpage, I used the portal template; just follow those instructions, and then change the final design so that it's appropriate for a userpage (do you really want a DYK or portal header on your userpage?). It's quite complicated, and many changes don't take effect until you save (making preview useless), so your userspace edit count will likely be inflated. Anyway, good luck if you decide to go for it, nice hearing from you. · AndonicO Engage. 10:34, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wan Chien

[edit]

Is it in service? IDFs can't use it at the moment until they get upgraded. One upgraded IDF prototype wouldn't count. Does the article say that it is nearing completion or is ready to be deployed once the IDFs have been upgraded? John Smith's (talk) 09:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree File:Jagdpanther company of heroes.jpg

[edit]

An image that you uploaded or altered, File:Jagdpanther company of heroes.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. KelvinHOWiknerd(talk) 19:26, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I found the same image on an official website that is supposedly hosted before your image was uploaded; thus I therefore dispute the originality of the image. Protocol guidlines state that I must contact you on the occasion when this happens; thus I did as told. --KelvinHOWiknerd(talk) 19:27, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Jagdpanther company of heroes.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Stifle (talk) 12:44, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Image of Transcend JF V30 Flash Drive.JPG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Image of Transcend JF V30 Flash Drive.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 07:05, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trancscend T.sonic

[edit]

Hey dude.
I see you have created an aarticle for JetFlash.
Back in 2008, I created an article for Transcend T.sonic.
It was deleted for some apparently silly reasons.
You can view the AfD here : Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Transcend T.sonic.
I have an archived version of the final article before it got deleted in my userspace User:Rsrikanth05/Transcend T.sonic.
I was wondering if you could maybe help me in recreating the article.
Regards,
--Rsrikanth05 (talk) 16:57, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey dude, do you know when the T.sonic 820 [aka MP820] was released? Because AFAIK, it was released before the 3rd gen iPod Nano [the wide one], and thus T.sonics supported video playback waay before the iPods. I can use that for notability.... --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 15:01, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion request

An article you created, JetFlash, recently was nominated for speedy deletion by another user. I have declined the nomination, but in its current format it is doubtful that the article could survive a deletion discussion. If you wish to improve it, please try to address the concerns stated on the article, particularly the lack of independent, third-party references to establish the notability of the subject, and the need for a neutral point of view. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 09:50, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Praveen vaidyan, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.
