Disambiguation link notification for August 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of E-Grade expressways in Sri Lanka, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Matara (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 the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion

Please don't delete the contents of an article and then ask for it to be speedily deleted because it's empty. Instead, use one of the acceptable WP:criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 15:27, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ratmalana Airport

Here in Wikipedia we use the common name for naming articles. We don't use official names. And we certainly don't use what Chamath237/Jpchamathdj want. You need to establish the common name before renaming the article. I have started a discussion here.--obi2canibe^{talk contr} 13:01, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. If you want to revert someone else's edits be man enough to do it while you are logged in.

Free License

Can you release this image under free license so I can vectorize this image? -- Wárrãich šÁhiß talk • contribs 15:29, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Nadra.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Nadra.jpg. 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org, 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia: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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 14:30, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of PEO TV

Hello Chamath237,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged PEO TV for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Acalycine ^talk 05:15, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Move to "Southern Expressway (Australia)"‎

That really was an astoundingly bad choice of name - equivalent to renaming it to "Southern Expressway (America)" and/or "Southern Expressway (Europe)" - i.e. You haven't addressed, much less solved, the problem you say you were intending to address.
For your information, an appropriate name would be "Southern Expressway (Adelaide)" - but I'm unable to make that change. Pdfpdf (talk) 12:53, 9 July 2014 (UTC)‎[reply]

Speedy deletion of "PEO TV"

A page you created, PEO TV, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how it is important or significant, and thus why it should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for companies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Petrb (talk) 09:13, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:SLTB luxury bus.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:SLTB luxury bus.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia 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 "Click here to 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 Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. obi2canibe^{talk contr} 11:35, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You were all editing from the same computer, as confirmed by the CheckUser, and promoting the same companies, for example LankaPay. That is what we call WP:Meatpuppetry, and is not allowed. Vanjagenije (talk) 11:35, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Boing! said Zebedee declined your unblock request while I was writing a decline message to you. However, I have decided I may as well post what I wrote anyway, just in case you waste any more administrator time by posting another unblock request, as I think my comments may be helpful to an administrator reviewing such a request who doesn't know the full history. So here it is:

As far back as October 2013 I asked you about another account. The reason I asked was that the editing looked very suspicious, and I thought it was almost certainly a sockpuppet, but I decided to give you a chance to explain if it wasn't. However, for some reason you chose not to answer my question. Years later you are still editing in close collaboration with other accounts which look very much like sockpuppets. One of those accounts has edited in remarkably similar ways to you from the same computer, and you deny that you know anything about the account. That account has a username which is so strikingly similar to the username of the account I asked you about in 2013, together with strikingly similar editing, that it is totally obvious, with no doubt whatever, that those two accounts are the same person. So for a period of years you and someone else have been editing in ways which are so similar that different editors have independently come to the conclusion that they are probably the same person; that other person has been dishonestly using more than one account; he or she has been using the same computer as you; you don't know that person. In addition to that, you and a "friend" (who also uses the same computer as you and edits in strikingly similar ways) have chosen user names identical except for different numbers at the end, which is a common practice for sockpuppeteers, but in over five and a half years as a Wikipedia administrator I don't remember ever coming across a pair of friends doing that. Your username is clearly related to the name of a non-notable person that you have written about, and all of the accounts involved have user names which are clearly related to that person's name, despite some of them being operated by someone you say you don't know. Frankly, you must think we are idiots if you expect us to believe all that. I should have come back in 2013 when you didn't answer my question about one of your sockpuppets, and blocked you. Because I didn't, you were able to get away with your dishonesty for another two years and a few months, but now the party is over. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:20, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. If you think you are correct. Delete my account. I stopped editing Wikipedia. -- Good bye Wiki.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Advanced Info Service (logo).png

A tag has been placed on File:Advanced Info Service (logo).png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.

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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
