Disputed fair use rationale for Image:FileZilla icon.pngThanks for uploading Image:FileZilla icon.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 21:11, 13 February 2008 (UTC) Weight trainingHi, I reverted your addition to weight training - the strength training article has the basic principles of hypertrophy and muscle strength and endurance increases, and also has a terminology section. Basic principles should go there, having a terminology section in the WT article creates a need for a discussion of the principles and common modes of weight training, leading to a huge duplication of content between ST and WT which isn't really needed. WT should have information specific to gravity-based training while ST covers all aspects that are common to weight training, isometric training, resistance training, bodybuilding, powerlifting, etc. Also, your talk page is pretty long, have you considered archiving? Long pages take longer to load up for people on slow servers. If you paste the following onto your page, it'll archive automatically anything older than 7 days. Very convenient. Paste it at the very top of the page (without the nowiki tags) and it'll take care of everything for you.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:MRU.pngThank you for uploading Image:MRU.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page.

I'd like to ask you'd want to start an article on Inquisitor, a hardware testing platform that has the similar structure as Phoronix has, but different aims: it aims to do hardware stress testing. Also, it's somewhat more mature than Phoronix's and would release final version 3.0 soon.

This was done because the article seemed to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dermalogica![]() A tag has been placed on Dermalogica requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Contributing to Wikimedia techHello, Frap. I noticed from your userboxen that you're interested in programming. I thought you might want to know that the Wikimedia open source community welcomes you to get developer access so you can contribute code, critique others' commits, and generally get a better sense of how this place works on a technical level. Also, the Wikimedia Foundation is hiring programmers, in case you know anyone who's looking. Remote work is often feasible.

In particular, I would like to know what is it that you find that is not conforming to Wikipedia's policy on Neutrality. Thanks, S.Prasanna Venkatesh (talk) 03:42, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments. I am not an employee of that Company, but do work in a company that does business with MediaTek indirectly. The phrases you have mentioned are from the Company's Website--> may be they do sound like a PR campaign..But the tender offer is not something that I had edited. Of course, I totally acknowledge the fact that articles should be neutral, given the fact I myself am a heavy user of Wikipedia and I would definitely agree that this article should be neutral as well, given the fact that I don't have any personal interest in this company. Would deleting these words make this article a better one that conforms to Wiki's standards? This is my first contribution to Wikipedia and I chose to write about MediaTek because there was hardly any info on that Company and your guidance will help me become a better contributor. Thanks, S.Prasanna Venkatesh (talk) 20:39, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: BitCraft Online (March 13)![]() This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Their outputs usually have multiple issues that prevent them from meeting our guidelines on writing articles. These include: The comment the reviewer left was:
Hey, some constructive advice - the approach taken to BitCraft Online is not ideal and is improperly sourced to create the illusion of a well-sourced article. Each sentence is a short snippet copypasted verbatim from a random part of a different source. There's no synthesis or summary of sources at all. Many of the sentences don't really describe the subject matter, focusing on unclear or inessential parts of their source - such as talking about "write-ahead logging", or what other games reviewers compared it to. It has the appearance of churning these sources into gAI to ask for a key point and stringing that together into an article. I really appreciate you have done some work here but you need to be able to properly describe the content of the game and its reception to substantiate notability and create encyclopedic sourcing. Check out the manual of style for pointers. Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

I noticed your edit on Boeing F-47. In your edit, you wrote "Boeing F-47 Trumpster" yet no secondary sources called it that and you didn't cite a source (you don't really need one in the lead).
