I can't believe you have nothing on this. I'm not a writer so you need to recruit one and investigate and include this topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.119.2.158 ( talk) 02:02, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi,
I tried to add school's crest on the below pages' infobox but i don't know why the images couldn't be displayed. These two schools have school scrests on their English wikipedia pages, but they don't have them on their Chinese wikipedia pages, can someone please help me out or add the crest for me?
The pages are: 1: https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%80%AB%E6%95%A6%E5%A4%A7%E5%AD%B8%E9%87%91%E5%8C%A0%E5%AD%B8%E9%99%A2

Hi, my page (The Friends of Hayes Meadow) has been deleted by an administrator stating i have breached copyright.

French Wikipedia has this image slide show template. Does English Wikipedia have something similar? Brycehughes ( talk) 10:11, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Is there an easy way to find all the sub-pages of my own user page? I'm looking specifically for all "code" pages such as css and javascript pages that I have edited or created over the years with customisations of my working environment and tools. Roger (Dodger67) ( talk) 11:04, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Click "unreviewed".
I'm not sure how accessible these comments are now, but nevertheless it is disappointing that the racist obscenity that I flagged as abuse several months ago still has not been deleted. Could someone please delete this now. Thank you. 86.160.84.78 ( talk) 13:10, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Spencer Reece currently lives in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, on a Fulbright. The Road to Emmaus will be published in 2014, not 2013, with FSG — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.92.77.25 ( talk) 18:12, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Dear Sirs
Sorry I messed up today on the Category English Footballers. I will learn more asap.
As the person who introduced all post-war player's info in 1981 with the launch of Football League Players' Records, published by Rothmans and supported by the FL and PFA, I was shocked to see how few acknowledgements there were to my work within the site. To be fair, birthdates, birthplaces, signing dates and much other material had never been available prior to my work which was updated over five further editions, ending in 2005. I have written 63 books, many of which were football annuals up to and including 2010-11. Much of the material was held within the FL and PL offices until I was allowed to get it to the public.
I understand that several authors of the many club books that followed my breakthrough work failed to acknowledge my work probably because they did not wish to be seen copying.
You will also see that I have a very large boxing site, Barry Hugman's History of World Championship Boxing. Much of this is a unique work taking in 30 years of research. With my name in the title it probably stops those who wish to get their hands on it.
I think Wiki is a great idea, but I would like some advice on how to reference my work on the individual players that have not already recognised what I have produced.
Sorry to go on, but I hope you understand where I am coming from.
Best Wishes

You have an article that has photos in it that I have not authorised you to use. I would like the content removed . These are MY photos and I do not want everyone and anyone looking at them. REMOVE THEM NOW!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.96.2.119 ( talk) 18:49, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
How should we link from a term within a quotation? We're not supposed to do it in the way we would if the term was not within a quotation. Thanks. Nick Levinson ( talk) 19:22, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
I see my work on WP posted for sale at Barnes & Noble at this page. I have never seen this before. What is going on.-- TonyTheTiger ( T/ C/ BIO/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:FOUR) 21:31, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
I don't know how we can make it any clearer: the license we grant when we edit here (the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL) is a broad license, permitting all forms of re-use, for-profit or not-for-profit. That has been true since the beginning of Wikipedia, and those licenses are by design irrevocable. -- Orange Mike | Talk 00:17, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
I've found a fairly new user whose signature doesn't have the normal User and User Talj links. Please take a look at User talk:Rafaelcarmen#Your signature if you think you might be able to track down the missing links. Roger (Dodger67) ( talk) 22:05, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
I put Template:Db-a7 on Cosplay photography and someone removed it because I used the wrong tag. I can't find any tags for spammish original research articles. One website that is mentioned in the body is actually used as a source. There is probably COI issues with it. It is also a linkfarm and the only two sources are bloggish. Category:Cosplay may have similar articles but I don't wish to go through them. Also I used the same speedy tag on Pet photography which is original research, not notable, and no sources at all. What are the correct speedy tags or do they need to be dragged through AfD?-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 22:20, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
My most recent experience in developing and then submitting an article for creation made me aware that none of the guidelines for novice article-writers (as far as I can remember) included the advice—
I did not find this advice in WP guidelines (did I miss it?). It would have saved me a lot of effort, and made the initial submitted material easier to evaluate. Please consider adding this. It would have helped a lot. Thanks. -- Espresso-con-pana ( talk) 22:46, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
