User talk:Wedginator

Hello Wedginator, and welcome to Wikipedia! The first thing you should know is that we encourage you to be bold. Feel free to edit and improve articles, by clicking any 'edit' link.

If you'd like to test what Wikipedia can do, check out the sandbox - just type and save the page and your text will appear. That's the beauty of a Wiki.

For more information check out our tutorial - it's designed with newcomers in mind, as is the help section. If you'd like to get involved with current projects, have a look at the Community Portal. There are always tasks for users to do, ranging from copyediting to expanding stubs.

I hope you'll enjoy your time here, but be warned, it can become addictive! Feel free to message me, I'm more than happy to help. As an added tip, sign any message you post so users know that you've said it. To do so is delightfully simple, just use the wikicode ~~~~.

Once again, welcome! James Kendall [talk] 23:44, 13 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

UM Maxx

A tag has been placed on UM Maxx, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of either already posted material, or of material that was previously deleted under Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. If you can indicate how UM Maxx is different from all other articles, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}}, and also put a note on Talk:UM Maxx saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions.Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:06, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

Please note there is now a 3RR report for your edits to Traxxas [1] --Ronz 04:01, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mini-Z. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors. Thank you. [2], [3], [4], [5] --Ronz 04:01, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Block

Hi , you were reported for 3RR violation on Traxxas and I have blocked you for 24 hours. Please take the time to carefully review our WP:3RR, WP:EL and WP:COI policies, and hopefully you'll return to edit collaboratively in the future. Thank you, Crum375 04:12, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seeking username clarification

Given your username resembles a webpage address, please either confirm that you are representing wedginator.com, or request a new username (see WP:U for more information on this policy). Please note that your account may be blocked if you don't clarify this potential problem. --Ronz 04:21, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I am the webmaster of wedginator.com I thought I made that clear in the previous discussions. Wedginator 11:31, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if I missed it. You should probably place it on your user page.

Since you've admitted to a WP:COI, I hope you'll follow it's guidelines closely and no longer add wedginator.com links to any articles. --Ronz 15:09, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

You have been blocked for persistent link spam and edit warring. As I can see no significant constructive contributions from this account, the block is indefinite. Kafziel ^Talk 16:43, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Ummaxxmain.jpg

Hi. When you uploaded Image:Ummaxxmain.jpg, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with {{GFDL-presumed}} and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually {{GFDL-self}} or {{PD-self}}. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Wikipedia:Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.

Please feel free to contact me on my talk page or leave a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions with any questions you may have. Thank you. Aksibot 07:48, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
