Gaelic translations

Please don't add these translations to articles on New Zealand places. Scottish Gaelic is not an official language of New Zealand, nor a commonly used one in that country. If there are articles on the same places in the Scottish Wikipedia, add interwiki links instead.-gadfium 23:03, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is important for these particular articles, as the names of these places are an anglicisation of the original Gaelic name. If you feel that rather it should be mentioned elsewhere in the article then you are welcome to change that. In the case of Seumas MacCoinneach/James Mckenzie; as he only spoke Gaelic, his actual name here is important.

It may well be appropriate to mention the origins of the names in the articles, but this should include references and be in the body of the article, not immediately following the article title.-gadfium 08:44, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note:I have asked about this matter at Wikipedia:New Zealand Wikipedians' notice board#Scottish Gaelic. You are welcome to contribute there.-gadfium 08:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Lian Li PC-A17.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Lian Li PC-A17.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

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. 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 Wikipedia's image use policy.

File source problem with File:Haiku PoorMan.png

Thank you for uploading File:Haiku PoorMan.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the

image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

WP:RECENT Dlpkbr (talk) 10:49, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply

Neither of these two articles suffer from "recentism" as the New Syrian Army article covers the NSA from Nov. 2015 to Jun. 2016 equally. Editor abcdef (talk) 02:40, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
They certainly do suffer from
Recentism. Have you even read that guide? As you seemed to think I was saying the articles were outdated at first. To clarify: "Recentism is writing or editing without a long-term, historical view, thereby inflating the importance of a topic that has received recent public attention" which means that long term it might not meet "the general notability guideline to merit its own stand-alone article". The 'Victory Brigades' article barely has enough current notability to warrant an article as it is, let alone in five to ten years time. Even the 'New Syrian Army' article has dubious notability and might be better merged into a subsection of the 'Authenticity and Development Front' article.

Cite template versus reliable source

Regarding your revert on List of Nintendo Switch games. Replacing an unreliable source with a reliable source, even if the editor didn't complete the cite template, is definitely the valid course of action. Cite templates are to prevent linkrot. Reliable sourcing is a core wikipedia principal. -- ferret (talk) 00:58, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I came here to say the exact same thing. It's much more important that a source is reliable than whether or not the optional "cite web" formatting style is used. Sergecross73 msg me 01:05, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
