Removal of Assessment from Ferguson Center for the Arts
[edit]Hello. I saw that you had de-assessed Ferguson Center for the Arts by removing the "start" assessment from the WikiProject Virginia tag. Perhaps this was inadvertent. If not, please explain the reason for the deletion. WPV works hard to assess all articles related to Virginia. VirginiaProp 15:12, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- I put a response on your talk page stating my rationale. (Nicolaususry 14:32, 30 October 2007 (UTC))
- This discussion continued on VirginiaProp's talk page. Here is a transcript of that discussion:
- "I "de-assessed" the article because I extensively re-worked the article and felt that a review was warranted. I have now added references also. I apologize for the inconvenience. I am a relatively new user and this is my second major edit. Thanks for your help. Let me know if I do anything else wrong. Also feel free to remove this from your talk after you have read it. Thanks, (Nicolaususry 02:59, 30 October 2007 (UTC))"
- "No problems. You didn't do anything wrong. Editing tags are useful and you should view them as help when you are creating an article. The tags make sure that the article gets put on a list that other WikiPedians can view of articles that need various types of assistance. Article creation is collabarative on WP and assistance can be very helpful. Most of us don't have the time or resources to create an article and take it to full GA status on our own. Also, tags are a way for an editor to mark something that needs to be improved, but for which he either doesn't have the time, the knowledge or the interest in improving himself.

In particular, please review:
- Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names)

Thank you for your attention. --Coolcaesar 18:32, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- I have. We just seem to be at odds on this one. (Nicolaususry 14:31, 30 October 2007 (UTC))

Permission Granted for Removal -- Halloween Current Event Category
[edit]I already took care of it. Thanks. 132.170.7.254 00:11, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for creating the above article. However, I must advise you that you need to add text to the article to establish its notability. Just having an infobox is not enough. You might want to look at St. Paul's Episcopal Church ( Richmond, Virginia) for ideas. Also you might want to look at All Saints Episcopal Church, Waveland (Jensen Beach, Florida). Rub a Google search on the church and pay particular attention to the history given on the church's own website. Look for famous people or events associated with the church. The age and architecture of the building are also important. Your church is listed on the National Register of Historic Places at [1]] under the name of Grace Church, Cismont. That is very, very important. Best wishes. clariosophic (talk) 23:58, 5 December 2007 (UTC) P.S. I've added enough text to the article to show its notability and hopefully to avoid its quick deletion. clariosophic (talk) 00:06, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your message. I think there's enough in the article now to protect it from being speedily deleted. Being on the National Register insures notability. Please remember that the article needs to have a neutral point of view and be factual with references either from books, websites, etc. It shouldn't be written like a press release or ad. Good luck on your exams. Best wishes. clariosophic (talk) 03:35, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:JohnLBrownlee.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:JohnLBrownlee.jpg, which you've attributed to Shawn Pattison. 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 [email protected], 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 {{permission 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 [email protected].
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. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Logan Talk Contributions 04:49, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
