Article of SIA Girl

Based on the references by Martin Roll, it is used as references and it is not a direct copy of the article. As much as you wish to remove the article, it isnt fair to remove the article completely... The article has been modified with true intentions of refecting as much information as possible to highlight the subject & content to mostly true as possible.

If u think there is any copyright infringement, what are the steps to prove that the articl is genuine and true... please highlight to me possibly instead of copying and pasting tags which i could not understand, there are only 2 paragraphs that mirrors the original article from teh website. The rest are purely based on mine. Thanks

Please take note i have put that in the talk page of that article and i hope u can revert it back. Additional information will be modified later.YuRiPa 07:01, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Slated back to orginal text

I have been given permission to retype the article based on my own words using a few references from the aabove mentioned URL. However, based on your rules that it requires tags whatsoever, i have typed in my own words, and therefore modified its text with no absolute direct copy to the article, please do understnd that i have worked hard to produce this article with my own words and in no way infringed the previous article produced. Do read carefully thsat the article has been retyped by my own words.

If being an adminstrator that promotes contributing and fair editing, perhaps you shouldn't remove my article and state that it is copyvio becos it is not! It is not fair to me that u should remove my articles without any genuine reasons and the reason u gave me isn't good enough! Thanks. If u think this article should be reviewed for further approval, at least tag the article with Template:Requires reviewing or something... please slate back my article to its previous original text.YuRiPa 08:22, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

• I am not an administrator.
• Regarding the article in question, the first version (which you created) was a blatant copyright violation from two websites. Wikipedia:Copyright problems requires a revert to a clean revision (which is not possible) or a speedy deletion. I have also located a free image Image:Singapore Airlines flight attendants.jpg which replaces the two fair use images you uploaded. Please pay attention to copyright! --Oden 08:42, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Can you please stop trying to remove my article.. i have replaced with content solely based on my own typing and non whatsoever is copyright infringement from any other website... Do not replaced my article with your own! I have based my research on designer Pierre Balmain and you also used my reference to create a so called cleaner slate of your own. If you keep on doing this, yu will be blocked asl well. Please try to remain civil ok? YuRiPa 10:23, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I have well placed the reference for the above article, please let me know where I stand.

I will take a look at the article. --Oden 07:14, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Mayj.jpg on deletion review

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Image:Mayj.jpg. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Taskinlude 08:35, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Noted, I have left a comment. --Oden 09:09, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Your recent request for checkuser

You recently compiled and listed a case at requests for checkuser. A checkuser or clerk has requested you supply one or more diffs to justify the use of the checkuser procedure in the case, in accordance with the procedures listed in the table at the top of the requests for checkuser page. For an outcome to be achieved, we require that you provide these diffs as soon as possible. This has been implemented to reduce difficulties for checkusers, and is essential for your case to be processed. A link to your recently-created case which has this information missing is here. Thanks for your co-operation. Luna Santin 10:51, 24 December 2006 (UTC), checkuser clerk.

Just a follow-up to let you know that this was confirmed. You should probably make a note of the decision on the talk page of that article, regarding the fact that the user claiming copyright ownership actually isn't the copyright holder. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 11:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the help! --Oden 11:34, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Copyright violation and edit warring by user:Rajsingam

I am having a problem with user:Rajsingam, he has been removing cited commentrary critical of balasingham, he has verbatim copied material from the pro LTTE site tamilnet with regards to the london funeral http://www.tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=20673 thus creating a possible copyright violation, he has been making POV edits, and he has been edit warring reverting my edits without rationale. I am unable to proceed further as I will be in violation of the 3RR rule, I would be gratefull if you could advice on how to proceed with this user who is hell bent on using this wiki to push his own POV, and blatant dishonest practices like uploading images under false licenses. Thanks.Kerr avon 13:44, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I'll take a look when I get a chance. --Oden 13:50, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

WP:CP

Thank you for taking the time to report copyright violations (e.g. John Korsm). This is to let you know that the contents of an article should be blanked/replaced when adding the {{copyvio}} template. Happy editing, and merry christmas! :) - Mailer Diablo 14:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

I have been unsure about this in the past because blanking in general is not allowed, so it takes some getting used to this exception to the norm. Seasons greetings! --Oden 14:40, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Online Bullying

You are one mean streak aren't ya? First foremost, you remove my article and then you created a new one based on references that i used to made in the previous old article. Not only that, you constantly accuse me of blatantly using copyvio material even though i have modify and updated the article in my own words. Not only you being a tell tale and being a constant beeyotch to make personal attacks to me and earsing my hard earned work!

Let me tell you one thing, you are one BIG bully, and i hope you stop bothering me! What makes you think that being a detailed editor and fair contributor makes you a senior? And you got an administrator to blopck me for 24 hours?!! Nice try, bugger,but no cigar. Let me tell you, there is karma of reaping what you sowed. Why are you being such a bully? I am aghast that you recreate that article and made it your own. There is nothing like hypocrites like you and i hate people like that!

You made references by quoting sentences and words like Asian values and warm hospitality... that is from venture republic article... you accused me of copyvio the article yet you do the same likewise. A pot calling a kettle black! Be careful that you don;t get a lump of coal in your stocking this Christmas, you gringe. Two words for you simply: BAH HUMBUG! You'll get your shortcomings one of these days! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by YuRiPa (talk • contribs) 14:55, 25 December 2006.

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Cheers, ✎ Peter M Dodge ( Talk to Me • Neutrality Project ) 14:57, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

You expect me to assume good faith after all the hassle you put me through by removing my hard work information which i have to retrieve from scratch?? I have saw your original slate of article you so called started. I am appalled by the amount of sentences you used that is looselt referenced fromt he original article of venture republic, being fake and hypocritical does not move me. If not for the fact that other users has added in the information with best interests at heart, i would say that article would bland as possible. To be honest, i really cannot be bothered in complaining to ANI, cos you are not worth my time. Please refrain from communicating to me in future. YuRiPa 15:59, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

User:YuRiPa, please stop. If you continue to make personal attacks on other people you will be blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Thank you. --Oden 13:23, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Um, you know you just chastised yourself for making personal attacks, right? :P - CobaltBlueTony 13:59, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

D'oh! That's what I get for using a template instead of writing my own comment. Thanks for pointing it out. Cheers! --Oden 14:03, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:CariDee07.jpg

For your information, i have been highlighted of this issue and the issue has been rectified already. redundancy doesnt work! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by YuRiPa (talk • contribs) 15:00, 25 December 2006 (UTC).

Article of Ownership

Hey, fair enough regarding about image positioning. But then again, Wikipedia is a page that everyone feels free to edit whichever to contribute to the best attributes to the articles. i know that you may think the article does not own by any of us, but what about other articles that has also placed their images differently then? You are taking about controversy over here, it is not a genuine case, I am sorry. I tend to see that you have conflicts with another user based on the fact that yiu delete his/her article and replace with your own. I find such practices uncomfortable when it comes to dealing with new online editors and i hope you refrain from doing such things in future. It kinda scares me in a way. ;) Shimmers77 15:27, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

• Regarding image placement, the Manual of Style guideline says to "start the article with a right-aligned image".
• Also remember that editing Wikipedia is a privilege, not a right.

Cheers! --Oden 08:59, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

• I can settle on the first statement regarding about manual styling.
• Remember - just because you feel editing is a privilege doesn't give you the right to change and re-edit other user's works and abuse your privileges by bullying them. YuRiPa 09:49, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

• Excuse me, your statement of saying the above statements is a reflection of you simply trying to overwrite people's comments. You really love to disagree with others don't you? Do assume good faith in contributing and do not put others down by changing the context of that article. Remember there are users out there who are more knowlegeable about the subject than you think you are. Shimmers77 09:53, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

SQ Girl Infobox

I appreicate you creating an infobox for this article, but i find that infobox too wide and can't you format it like a taxobox or something? Plus the terms of trademark and discontinued left blank is unecessary. Can't u insert only info that is necessary, putting blank terms is kinda wierd looking and make the article look very amateurish!Shimmers77 10:57, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

It is best to discuss article development on the article talk page. If template:Infobox Brand needs updating I would suggest enlisting the help of a editor with experience modifying infoboxes, try the Village Pump for instance.--Oden 11:11, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Anton Balasingham

Hi Oden,

I did my edits to my best and hereafter I don't think so I could make anything for a neutral standing. Please take care of the article and the photo. It's because of your initial guidance only I started to develop a story based on the photo, which you have suggested.

Rajsingam 26 Dec. 2006

OK, I will take a look. --Oden 14:22, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Oden,

One editor Lakiru is taking Asia Tribune for reference, which is a well-known pro Sri Lanka Government media, nobody knows even from where it is operating. They cities Tamilnet as pro-LTTE, then how the Asia Tribune can be NPOV.

Rajsingam 26 Dec. 2006

Hello. It is more usfeul if you post comments relating to article quality on the article talk page, that way all the editors who are monitoring that page can see the comments. Sincerely, --Oden 15:08, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Image of Queen Maria of Romania

Hello, regarding Image:MS Regina Maria.JPG: The ORIGINAL image is a photo with autograph, taken on the 15 of October 1922; or later that month and year. I do not know the name of the ORIGINAL photographer. The present image is a photo of the original one, taken by Marius Amariei (around 1998, with the occasion of an exposition that took place at the National Museum of History of Romania). This image is a scanned one of the later. ES Vic 19:00, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

editing other people's comments on my talk page

Hi Oden. I was wondering why you edited a comment left by another user on my talk page (Diff)? Thanks. -- Siobhan Hansa 19:40, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Mainly because the article text contained a fair use image used out of article namespace (criterion 9 of the fair use criteria). I also did it because pasting the article text on five talk pages appeared to be a newbie mistake. Instead of just covering up the image I thought I'd hide the entire block of article text, but leave the comment regarding article improvement. --Oden 19:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

I have restored the original comment but removed the fair use image. --Oden 19:57, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Losers like you will never come to any good end!

Image:Eed7224a23.jpg origin?

Thanks for the backup on the PUI page. I'm wondering how you found the image's origin? --MECU≈talk 14:31, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

First I tried a image search for "Özalan", the name of the person, but that drew a blank. So on a whim I tried searching for "Eed7224a23". I figured that a image name like that sounds fairly implausible for someone to name on purpose, so it might just be the same as the original. --Oden 14:35, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

The article text in question seems to be verfiable and from a reliable source. Remember that Wikipedia's articles have a neutral point of view and that content is not censored. Try to address the issue on the talk page. --Oden 14:55, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

I will have you know i am not afraid of you and I do not care for you at all! You need to get a life! Not everything about Wikipedia is about you!!! You are really sickening and a real sore eye. Curse on you and may yhour computer have VIRUS and everything you owned is lost!!! 2007 will be a miserable wretched year for you cos losers like you will not come to any good end! Go ahead and block this account whatever you want!!! You'll regret it one of this day!!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by EuReePa (talk • contribs) 15:48, 27 December 2006 (UTC).
