Welcome to Wikipedia![edit]

Hello Massenetique, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

You might like some of these links and tips:

Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
Use the Show preview button
Provide an Edit summary
Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
Take a look at Consensus of standards
Create a User page

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, -- Alf ^melmac 23:16, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Le Cid (opera), but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material.

Image copyright problem with Image:Posther.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Posther.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 01:16, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking of Cyrano de Bergerac (opera)[edit]

Hi, you blanked the article Cyrano de Bergerac (opera); any reason for this ? I reverted the edit for now. Schutz 23:58, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, you should transform the page into a redirect rather than just blanking it. Blanking is usually considered to be vandalism, except in rare cases such as copyright violations. If an article has moved, a redirection should be added; if an article is not needed anymore, its deletion should be requested, but in both case, it should not be blanked. I have put a redirection instead. Cheers, Schutz 07:54, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, you should use the "move" button at the top of the page, so that you keep the history together. in the case of Amadis, there are two operas called Amadis, one by Massenet and one by Lully. That's why the one by Massenet was at "Amadis (Massenet)" and the other was at "Amadis (Lully)". Mak (talk) 17:14, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:HenryLewis.gif[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:HenryLewis.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rette tast 07:41, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Massenet's music

Thank you for quality articles about the music of Jules Massenet, his first staged opera, his sacred dramas about women, and people around him such as librettist Henri Meilhac, - your user name almost says it all, you are an awesome Wikipedian!
