If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Request for comment.[edit]

It looks to me like you are on your way. Two small suggestions. Be a little more careful about agreement of subject and verb. Have a slightly more gradual learning curve (don't be quite so quick to get into the equations).

When I first started working on Wikipedia, I went to a list of article that were on mathworld.com but not on Wikipedia, and began working my way through the list.

Good luck!

University of California, Berkeley[edit]

The seal you added to the University of California, Berkeley article is not the main campus seal. There are indeed two seals in common use, one with "THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA" and the other with "THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA BERKELEY" (the one you added). While both are common, the main seal that is in use by the administration is the former and can be found here. The seal with "BERKELEY" in it is used mainly for merchandise sold at the campus store. Thank you for your time and understanding. --CASportsFan (talk) 08:08, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know and correcting my mistake! Hh73wiki (talk) 00:34, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Berkeley seal.gif[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Berkeley seal.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 03:43, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cal Seal[edit]

I have been a Cal student for years now and the only place the Berkeley specific seal is used is on merchandise and on vehicles. The official seal, as stated by the University is the "UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA" seal as it always has been since 1868. Thank You. --CASportsFan (talk) 21:08, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Look, they are both in use I have never made the claim otherwise, but the official seal remains the one that has been around since 1868. I too can post pictures of the original seal in use (like every one of those "Berkeley" signs on the lamp posts), inside Haas Pavilion, etc. I can also redirect you to the official campus identity page that supports my claim. [1] --CASportsFan (talk) 21:28, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Both are official, I should have rephrased my statement . . . when academics and athletics are involved usually the 1868 seal is used, and the Berkeley seal is used in all other situations. As you can imagine, the 1868 seal is used much more often and is much older than the Berkeley seal. I believe it is appropriate for the original (and still official) seal to remain. --CASportsFan (talk) 21:47, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Look, the University of California name is used by both the system and the Berkeley campus, not unlike the University of Texas and University of Michigan. Because of this, the original seal of the University is still in official use on the campus along with the University of California name. While the campus is no longer officially the "University of California" (even though the athletic department is still the "University of California Athletics Department"), the seal is still official and because of its history and the history of the campus, the original seal should remain. I do, however, believe that the Berkeley seal has a spot on the page, just not in the infobox. --CASportsFan (talk) 21:59, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:EngineersRing.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:EngineersRing.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 01:13, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Picture of Pavel Grinfeld.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Picture of Pavel Grinfeld.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

  • 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:50, 12 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Criminal procedure in California[edit]

Hello, Hh73wiki,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Criminal procedure in California should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Criminal procedure in California .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,
