User talk:MK8
This image of Bahram Bayzai was uploaded by User:BehnamFarid earlier this month and has been deleted because it was a non-free image of a living person, which is fine so far. The uploader claims to have permission from payvand.com, the source of the image (see [1]), and says he has sent it in to OTRS. I'm not an OTRS user (only a random admin), so I would be obliged if you could see if an email regarding this image has come into the permissions-en queue, and if not, liaise with User:BehnamFarid to get it sent in, as he is getting quite frustrated about the issue. Thanks for your help. Stifle (talk) 13:28, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- As this is an OTRS issue I understand if you will have to be circumspect in your replies and/or use email rather than onwiki messaging. Stifle (talk) 13:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Al rayyan doha qat.gif)
[edit] Thanks for uploading Image:Al rayyan doha qat.gif. 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) 10:59, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
[edit]Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:59, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Joan Miró
[edit]I've seen on you Userpage that you speak arabic and I would like to ask you for some help: The Wikipedia in Catalan have reached an agreement with the Joan Miró Foundation: They will include QRpedia codes next to the highlights of his upcoming exhibition about Joan Miró. It's the most important exhibit in the last 20 years, and has passed summer at Tate in London, this autumn will be in Barcelona, and then will go to National Gallery of Art in Washington. The articles have been made in Catalan and are being translated into English, and I would like you to help us translating one of them to arabic language. The more languages we have, the better the experience for the user. You can find more information about the Wikiproject here. If you are not interested into art topics, can you tell me if you know some arabic-speak wikimedian who does. Thank you in advance!.--Kippelboy (talk) 18:40, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification
[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Game of the Year, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page PC (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.
