Thanks, but I don't really know much about Scouting - the only reason I was editing some Scouting related articles recently is because I've been doing a lot of edits on Nauru (and a few other pacific nations), and that included knowing about Scouting in those areas.

Education in Tokelau

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Education in Tokelau, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://wikieducator.org/Tokelau.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

False alarm. :) WikiEducator uses CC BY-SA 3.0, so it's okay. Orthogonal1 (talk) 01:47, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! You are correct that the source is under a compatible free license, CC-BY-SA. So yes you are free to use that text in the article, but the license requires attribution, that is: saying where you got the material from. A simple link in the edit summary when creating is usually enough. Just FYI for future. I'll dig around and see if I can find the right talk-page template to accomplish the same thing after-the-fact. Thanks for your contributions! Crow^Caw 21:20, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks. I tried giving attribution in a notice at the bottom of the page, but I'll use the edit summary as well next time. Orthogonal1 (talk) 21:37, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Education in Tokelau

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Education in Tokelau requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://wikieducator.org/Tokelau. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Problems with upload of File:Bitrig-logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:Bitrig-logo.png. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 08:05, 15 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

.io page edits

Otrhogonal1,

You rolled back a removal of the "Controversy" section on the .io page, and in the process deleted the British Government Parliamentary Record that clearly addressed and closed the controversy, and posted the following to my talk page:

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to .io. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you. Orthogonal1 (talk) 21:06, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

In the spirit of that notice, I have added the parliamentary record from the house of lords back to the page, which clarifies and closes the alleged controversy, and I provide you a well articulated response.

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to .io. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of supporting facts that remove controversy. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the material that clarifies facts. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you. untanglr (talk) 22:50, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orthogonal1,

You rolled back some edits which I have made, but I only added to the existing content which has been on the page for an extended period of time.
I simply updated the sections you removed, which I did not create to begin with. You have yet to state the information in question that was objected to on your removal and you have still not referenced it in your talk message to me. If there is a specific problem, then please state what the issue is.

Here are the two edits you made:

You "Removed tables of domains", to which I did not create, but simply updated with new the new sales and information in Alexa.
The other "Added deletion caption to File:ICB DOMAINS SH.png", was not something I created or edited.

As far as the removal of the tables, you have to state why you would remove them. If you go back in history you can see they have been there since Oct 2014 and were added by user: AxelThomson
If there is a problem with that information, it needs to be made clear what that issue is. If you can explain why you removed content which was 7 months old, but was simply refreshed with the newest data, then please do so.

Thanks,

The National Society of Leadership and Success- Article Tagged

Hello Orthogonal1, Thank you for all your feedback and guidance through the AfD nomination process. It appears however, that there might be another issue with the article as there have been multiple tags placed on the page for advert and COI. I am a bit confused by this as it was pretty clear on the Afd project & talk pages that these issues were addressed and resolved. If you have any information that could better help me understand why another editor tagged the page and what this means for the article itself it would be much appreciated. Thank you. Nslssap (talk) 18:52, 29 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User:Nslssap, I don't know why the article has been tagged. Perhaps the editor was unaware of the AfD discussions? Anyway, I've removed the tags and started a discussion on the talk page in case they want to dispute it. Orthogonal1 (talk) 21:31, 29 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

CCBY

I am doing work on copyright violations. I would like your opinion on your edit [1]. What if the govt.nz is violating the copyright of the UN report (which is not creative commons)? It seems like we know the original source is copyright projected, yet find it on a CCBY site. Thoughts?--Lucas559 (talk) 00:01, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright Violation Detection - EranBot Project

A new copy-paste detection bot is now in general use on English Wikipedia. Come check it out at the EranBot reporting page. This bot utilizes the Turnitin software (ithenticate), unlike User:CorenSearchBot that relies on a web search API from Yahoo. It checks individual edits rather than just new articles. Please take 15 seconds to visit the EranBot reporting page and check a few of the flagged concerns. Comments welcome regarding potential improvements. The bots seems to be stalled. But it is very nice to use when possible copyvios appear within hours of the edits.--Lucas559 (talk) 00:01, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Sigma Alpha Pi Logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Sigma Alpha Pi Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:54, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Pera

You have repeatedly deleted information from Pera's bio page, claiming that it relates to the Ubiquiti Networks rather than Robert Pera. The statements below directly relate to Pera rather than Ubqiuiti (they (a) note Pera's title and the fact that, unlike the vast majority of public company CEOs, he does not receive any cash or stock compensation for his services and (b) highlight his very unique "flat" management style). Nevertheless, you deleted both statement several times.

"Pera continues to serve as Ubiquiti’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, roles for which he has never taken any stock or equity compensation."

"Pera employs a flat management structure and embraces the openness of the Internet, directly connecting customers to one another and to Ubiquiti’s engineers through the company’s online community forum. This differentiated business model has enabled the company to break down traditional barriers such as high product and network deployment costs, thereby offering solutions with disruptive price-performance characteristics."

"Pera has [been] named Top 10 “Young and Powerful CEOs under 40” and Top 10 “Youngest Billionaires in the World.”

Furthermore, Pera is known primarily because he founded Ubiquiti networks to, among other things, empower independent entrepreneurs to close the digital divide. Accordingly, drawing a clean distinction between Pera and Ubiquiti is, in many cases, quite difficult. Understanding this tension, Wikipedia has afforded latitude to posters in including content in a personal bio that is tangentially related to such person's company. For example, the Wikipedia bio of Bill Gates includes sections detailing (x) Microsoft's partnership with IBM and (y) Gates' management style at Microsoft. Based on the foregoing precedent, the other statements you have previously deleted (see below for example) should be restored.

Under Pera’s leadership, Ubiquiti Networks has made meaningful progress towards closing the digital divide. More than 70 percent of Ubiquiti’s sales are outside of North America and over 20 million Ubiquiti devices have been deployed in over 180 countries, where Ubiquiti’s community of grassroots operators have connected millions of people to the Internet in some of the most remote regions in the world. Ubiquiti Networks, which has been profitable since its formation and whose growth has been funded by its own earnings, went public in October 2011 and has been one of the fastest growing companies in Silicon Valley.

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Section 113 of the Constitution of Australia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Police power.

Merge TazLiTo?

Last year you suggested that TazLiTo be merged into SliTaz GNU/Linux. No discussion ensued, so if you're still of the same mind it should be safe for you to go ahead and merge it. I would do it, but can't tell what content is worth merging. It cites no sources, and seems to violate WP:NOTMANUAL. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:23, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Same. I'm really not sure what's worth saving either, so I tagged it and hoped that someone else would deal with the problem. I think that maybe some parts of the "Common Operations" section could be saved, but I don't think that there's any hope for the rest. I'll leave it up to you. :) Orthogonal1 (talk) 04:49, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Monis v The Queen

Can you show proof that the content is held under this license? The link didn't come up for me so I had to look at a cached version of the page, which lacks any sort of confirmation that the content is held under this license. I tried bringing up the Australian Human Rights Commission page, but that isn't coming up either and the website has a copyright at the bottom. What we need here is something that clearly marks the content as being under a compatible license - it's not as easy as you saying that something falls under the public domain. For example, if these are government records then they'd likely be in the public domain (if Australia follows the same principle as here in the US) but you'd have to show that they are court records rather than someone's personal writeup of the court case.

That's really all I need and until then I'm going to keep the page deleted. Once you can show that this document has a compatible license, I'll restore the article. I've also emailed you a copy of the article just in case. It's just that we can't really just accept that it can be freely posted to Wikipedia without some sort of confirmation that it falls under an acceptable license. You might want to see if the AHRC would be willing to file a ticket giving it up as fair use if there's nothing that would clearly mark it as in the public domain. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:09, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, can you give me a link to the page where the PDF was hosted? In particular I need to know if the excerpt was under a different name than what the PDF was named. This way if anyone asks it can be specifically pointed to rather than to the PDF document itself, which doesn't really have any copyright notices marked on it. In any case, the AHRC has pretty much said that this is their work for the most part, so I'm going to restore it for now. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 07:34, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

About Victoria local government areas...

Hey, Orthogonal. Recently, I have been improving council make-ups of local government areas in Metropolitan Melbourne and currently the city of Ballarat. I have done the best I can to find the party affiliation of members in some of these councils. However, I feel like that I'm missing some of them. Do you think you can add to the council make-ups that I have created to these pages? You can see the Victoria local government areas I edited through my contributions. I also copied your format of local government area councils, so I hope you're okay with that. Thank you very much. ExecutiveWashington (talk) 23:14, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like someone had already collected the information on party affiliation in the City of Stonnington, but the council then removed it. As for the other councils, I haven't had time to look at those, but when you can't find information on the internet, you can try sending the councillors (or other councillors on the same council) a phone call or an email. This is original research, but I'm kind of tempted to overlook this rule. For example, I found out from a councillor that the City of Casey's Louise Berkelmans is actually Liberal-alligned, but I couldn't find this anywhere on the internet. (I haven't added this to the article; I'll let you decide.) Orthogonal1 (talk) 00:00, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Malia Bouattia". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 7 August 2016.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Smoking Ban

Please take discussion on your removal of sourced material to the article talk page. Whether ClubsNSW has a particular bias or not is not the point. The report was discussed by a good, reliable, third party source who considered it notable enough, and the article should attempt to reflect all notable, attributable, views on the topic. If ClubsNSW's report is not to be trusted is up to the source, and ultimately the reader, to decide. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 11:13, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please restore the material on this article, then we can discuss. See guidelines regarding reverts. If you are removing, long standing, sourced material, and have been reverted, you get consensus before removing again. You don't repeatedly remove it and then expect a discussion on the merits of your edit. Doing this twice is bordering on edit warring.

Your edits at User talk:Gkable

Please do not do things like this. If the living person to whom you direct such a harangue does not reply to your demand for involvement of a "legal team", then do not follow up with edits like this.

Proposed deletion of Andrew Crisp

The article Andrew Crisp has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

P.S. Can't believe that a lot of your work is on the Tokelau page, since I remember doing Tokelau for a Humanities project in Year 8; we seem to have a lot in common.

July 2017

Hello, I'm Davey2010. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Mac.Robertson Girls' High School, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. –Davey2010^Talk 00:22, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Mac.Robertson Girls' High School, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. –Davey2010^Talk 00:44, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mac.Robertson Girls' High School. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. –Davey2010^Talk 00:45, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Marketplace Gungahlin moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Marketplace Gungahlin, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Libraries in the Marshall Islands

A tag has been placed on Category:Libraries in the Marshall Islands requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
