Greetings!!
I'm currently an Undergraduate Senior at UC Berkeley who has the intention of attaining a B.A. in Earth & Planetary Science by the end of the month of May. I hope to effectively improve wiki pages. Feel free to send a message to my talk page to discuss conflicting opinions.
Thanks for your contributions, and have a wonderful day : D
Hello Jwratner1, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Sea level has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page or to reach out to your campus ambassador. A separate instance (different image) was removed from Pelagic sediment Thank you.

Hi, as an apparently new user, you may not have read the talk page guidelines. Sure you have the right to delete most things (not all) from your talk page. However, deleting warnings, such as the copyright violation notice, is considered evidence that you actually read the warning. In addition, enforcing editors and admins can easily look at your version history to see it all anyway.
Meanwhile... what is your plan regarding the various photocopied and copyrighted text book images you uploaded? NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 22:31, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
It's perfectly acceptable however to use others textbook's to develop your own graphics, provided you cite accepted textbooks or papers. You also learn more by doing this :). I had to draw my own diagrams when revising for A-level (and In some cases I did more background reading than I needed to). Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 23:10, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
If you need help on this please ask the Reference Desk to help you find the relevant papers to cite for specific models. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 23:13, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
Sounds Good, thanks :) jwratner1 ( talk)
If you wanted to help expand this article, you could add a section, 'Evidence for Sea Level change', which would give you some research and writing practice. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 00:13, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
I've removed File:Particledeperos.jpg from the sediment article as it appears to be a photocopy from Oceanography: An Invitation to Marine Science, by Tom S. Garrison, and you are claiming to be the copyright holder on the image page. Please explain. As I see above that you have been made aware of these problems - remove any other such violations. Vsmith ( talk) 01:03, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
I see you are making an effort to backup... thanks very much! I made a ton of mistakes when I started too. NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 21:07, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
Just wanted to emphasize that my dry writing style isn't intended to sound like a rebuke. Welcome to wiki! We need more eds. NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 01:43, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

DMacks (
talk) 21:33, 4 January 2014 (UTC)Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 03:14, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
are missing a description and/or other details on their image description pages. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the images, and they will be more informative to readers.
If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 04:35, 11 January 2014 (UTC)There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.-- LT910001 ( talk) 08:36, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:CapacitorSchematics.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why it has been listed (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry). Feel free to add your opinion on the matter below the nomination. Thank you. DMacks ( talk) 09:14, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Soil pH on Plant Availability of Nutrients.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 13:41, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Deposition process.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you object to the listing for any reason. Thank you. DMacks ( talk) 16:14, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Oddball Effect, a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.
You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.
Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot ( talk) 01:30, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Fossil Fuel Usage.png, which you've attributed to Robert A. Rohde. 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
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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
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. Diannaa ( talk) 15:06, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
