Unterseeboot 89[edit]

Generally, Wikipedia has a policy agaisnt disambiguation pages (such as this one) which do not point to any articles. Perhaps you would be willing to write short stubs on the different subs, so that this article is not deleted? J Milburn 11:31, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, you could just rephrase it slightly, and make it into a list of the subs, rather than a disambiguation page. That would probably actually be a better option, becuase, as you say, there is information on the page anyway. J Milburn 11:54, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if you are not going to make it into a valid disambiguation page OR a valid list, it should be deleted. Wikipedia's policy comes before the policy of specific Wikiprojects. J Milburn 12:01, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, sorry, I didn't realise that that was the case. My original message was that it would probably be best to write articles on each of them, I thought perhaps you were just going to write the disambiguation page and hope that someone would write the articles on the subs. Happy editing. J Milburn 12:11, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unterseeboot 88[edit]

A tag has been placed on Unterseeboot 88, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page 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 help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kamope · talk · contributions 12:18, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the Military history WikiProject![edit]

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, peer review, and project-wide collaboration.
We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
Our requests page has extensive lists of requested articles, images, maps, and translations.
We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill Lokshin 17:17, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uploading images[edit]

Decided to make the reply here so it's easier for you to see it :) I dont, as a rule, put copyrighted images on Commons, because AFAIK Fair Use is something that only the English Wikipedia recognises. Therefore I put the images directly on the English Wikipedia, adding the fair use rationale and tag that you can see on the images I've uploaded. (Feel free to copy and paste to your hearts delight if you find the rationale ok btw) Abel29a 18:39, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for Advice[edit]

Dear Keallu, I wanted to thank you for your helpful advice about fluency in articles related to U-boats, and infoboxes for the latter. I have tried to be more fluent, but if you could be more specific with your concerns, or give an example from within my own work, I feel sure my articles would improve greatly. Regarding the infoboxes - the site where I obtain my information, while being a complete and highly useful resource, does not present much of the information needed to fill the infobox. I am quite new to Wikipedia, and am still learning how to do things, and I find infoboxes quite complicating. If you know of an article or anything that could help me improve my skills in this area, I would certainly appreciate it. Otherwise, I prefer to simply leave them out, because when I try with infoboxes, I usually make a horrible mess. As I have said, I am new, and have only been an active user of Wikipedia for about 1 month. Thank you again, and sorry about the lateness of my reply, Anonymous Dissident 22:45, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Keallu,

Thank you form your swift reply, and even more thanks for your brief but easy to understand explanation of infoboxes. Your help is so appreciated. I will also use the site you recommended to me. I feel I owe you alot. Because of you, my articles will be greatly improved. Equipped with the understanding of how to use infoboxes, I'm sure I'll be able to create many more articles of better quality. Thanks a million, Anonymous Dissident 23:05, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again Keallu,

I have written another U boat article, with what I hope is more precision and fluency than my previous ones. It is entitled Unterseeboot 777. I have done the best I can, using the infobox, and adding some interesting facts. If you have time, I was wondering whether it would be possible that you examine the article, and report to me any faults, errors or inconsistencies you see, aswell as improvements that could be made to make the article just that little bit better. Thanks once again, your advice is gold. Anonymous Dissident 03:19, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reference in Supply-Chain Operations Reference[edit]

Rolf G. Poluha: Application of the SCOR Model in Supply Chain Management. Youngstown, NY 2006, ISBN 1-934043-10-9.

I see you created Supply-Chain Operations Reference with this reference. The isbn you gave was incorrect, and from what I can find, that book wasn't published until after you wrote the article. I'll be removing it if no one can offer an explanation. -- Ronz 15:53, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
and you must always:
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.

Accounts used solely for blatant self-promotion may be blocked indefinitely without further warning.

For more details, please read the Conflict of Interest guideline. Thank you. -- Ronz 15:53, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SMS Amazone (1843)[edit]

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article SMS Amazone (1843), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:AG Weser.jpg}[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:AG Weser.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia: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. 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 escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image 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 our 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.

Speedy deletion of Paul Winsper[edit]

A tag has been placed on Paul Winsper requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Quartermaster (talk) 14:25, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimania 2010 could be coming to Stockholm![edit]

People from all six Nordic Wiki-communities (sv, no, nn, fi, da and is) are coordinating a bid for Wikimania 2010 in Stockholm. I'm sending you a message to let you know that this is occurring, and over the next few months we're looking for community support to make sure this happens! See the bid page on meta and if you like such an idea, please sign the "supporters" list at the bottom. Tack (or takk), and have a wonderful day! Mike H. Fierce! 10:10, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Kevin Bell (physio)[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kevin Bell (physio), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. -- Jeandré, 2008-09-05t11:58z 11:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:SMS Vulkan.jpg[edit]

Hi, Keallu. I just wanted to let you know that I deleted this image, because a PD photograph of the ship is now on Commons, and now fair use no longer applies. Regards, Parsecboy (talk) 23:08, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Paul König.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Paul König.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:02, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:U 155 after being refitted for war duty.jpg[edit]

Hey, I deleted this image accidentally and when restoring it, discovered that the file had become corrupted (so the restoration failed). I've tried to look around u-boot-net.de for the image, but can't find it. I could download the thumbnail and upload that in a pinch, but if you know where the original url was, that would probably be better. I'll keep looking for the answer, but hopefully you can speed the process up. thanks, and sorry for mucking up the image. Protonk (talk) 18:51, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move Churchill Club - etiquette[edit]

If you do not agree with a requested move then you go and make your case at the appropriate page - WP:RM. You do NOT just remove the tag. HeartofaDog (talk) 15:24, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of OPROP![edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article OPROP!, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Non-notable pamphlet

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Passportguy (talk) 08:35, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe you should read Wikipedia guidelines first ! In order for an article to stay, it must

1) be sourced and
2) must state in the article why a particular subject is notable.

If you can add reliable sources that state why this particular pamphlet was notable, then I have no objection to the article. Passportguy (talk) 08:44, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Paul Ferris (physio)[edit]

A tag has been placed on Paul Ferris (physio) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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. ww2censor (talk) 03:54, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion nomination of List of Newcastle United F.C. directors and chairmen[edit]

I have nominated List of Newcastle United F.C. directors and chairmen, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Newcastle United F.C. directors and chairmen. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

AfD nomination of List of Newcastle United F.C. non-playing staff[edit]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of Newcastle United F.C. non-playing staff. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Newcastle United F.C. non-playing staff. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:14, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cruiser rule[edit]

If you don't already know, we're in a bit of a wrangle with AchimKoerver over formatting on the sub pages he's created. At the suggestion of Wjhonson, I'm wondering if you know if any/all the boats Achim's covered fall in one class, & if you could whip up a stub to cover them all. (I'll let Wjhonson explain his reasoning, since I'm not entirely sure what he has in mind.) Any help would be appreciated.

CSD criteria[edit]

Hi Keallu. Please note that the A7 WP:CSD criterion is 'a lower standard than notability.' Requesting the speedy deletion of an article, such as Mehdi Abeid, for a lack of notability is not a valid rationale. It's a minor point on procedure. Best, Meph^talk 17:15, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:U-boat War Badge small.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:U-boat War Badge small.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:26, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:U-boat War Badge with Diamonds.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:U-boat War Badge with Diamonds.jpg. 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 our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably 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:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 14:10, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

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 articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. 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 a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive[edit]

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
