Speedy deletion nomination of Oxford Ophthalmological Congress

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Oxford Ophthalmological Congress requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

In response to your query, when an article is moved to a new title, the previous title is replaced with something called a redirect, which reroutes traffic to the new title. I have blanked your sandbox so you can now use it again. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:47, 12 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! This is really helpful and a quick response. --Teckelberg7 (talk) 16:15, 12 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:The First Intraocular Lens, invented Ridley and made by Rayner made in 1949.png

Thanks for uploading File:The First Intraocular Lens, invented Ridley and made by Rayner made in 1949.png, which you've sourced to Rayner Intraocular Lenses Limited. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 {{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 [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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Dianna (talk) 23:58, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Diannaa, Thank you. In fact I would like this file deleted, for two reasons,

The image is wrong - it is not a photo of a lens but of a book cover. This is my fault. (In my defence, this is the first time I tried to upload an image.)
As you point out. I do not have the proof that the creator agreed to license it. Unfortunately, he is no longer alive.

Can you advise how I can delete it. I'd like to start again and find a properly licensed image.

Thanks for helping me. --Teckelberg7 (talk) 11:57, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have deleted the file for you. Feel free to try again once you've worked out the correct licence, etc. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:43, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 12

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gordon Cleaver, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages ICI and Rayner. 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:37, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Gerd U. Auffarth requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

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 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
