Trial unprotection of Starcraft 2

Would you mind unprotecting starcraft 2 on a trial basis; I think there shouldn't be enough disruptive IP behavior now although I could be wrong. If I am, it's no big deal to reprotect. NativeForeigner ^Talk/_Contribs 06:04, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

I'll probably be reversing myself within a week, but given it isn't a BLP or has any immediate such issues, we can give it a try, if you like. Courcelles 10:32, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Lidia Vianu - entry, 5 January 12:47

Thank you for moving my page to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Lidiavianu/Lidia_Vianu I have a list of references in English, that show quite well who I am and what I am doing, interviews in English included. How should this be done? I did not make the entry myself. Can I add these - will they be all right, coming from me? Thank you so much, Lidia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lidiavianu (talk • contribs) 10:47, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

What are the references? Go ahead and list them here and I'll take a look. Courcelles 10:49, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marti Emerald

Looks like we collided at AFD again. I relisted this right after you closed it so I unrelisted it. I generally like to see more discussion for BLPs but MelanieN does make a pretty good case for inclusion so I understand your reasoning. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:21, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I didn't think much of the deletion nomination, either... it didn't strike me as worth any real weight when we got down to nuts and bolts. Courcelles 00:26, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

About Uploaded Image

Thank you for letting me know about that. I think it'll be better to delete this image because someone has replaced it with a much nicer *.svg logo for Telkom Indonesia article. Thanks! Sherlockindo (talk) 15:37, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Done, thanks for letting me know. Courcelles 15:40, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of the Air Cycle Corporation page

Hello Courcelles. I noticed today that you deleted the page I created, "Air Cycle Corporation." Thanks for taking a look at it, but I do not think the deletion was justified. Not only was no communal "consensus" reached on whether the article should be kept to deleted, and no reason given for its deletion, but I do not think the arguments in favor of deletion were compelling.

The last comment before the article's deletion argued that "non-famous and/or small organizations" are by definition non-notable and therefore a WP article is not justified." This is totally incorrect, according to both WP:CORP standards and the official Wikipedia criterion for notability. WP:CORP explicitly states that '"Notable" is not synonymous with "fame" or "importance,".' The Wikipedia criterion for notability is being "the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the company itself." The Air Cycle Corporation Wikipedia page meets this criterion in its current form, and could be strengthened further with additional sources, such as those I listed in Air Cycle Corporation articles for deletion discussion page. I simply haven't had the time to add additional sources and remove Air Cycle Corporation-specific sources.

I request that you reinstate the Air Cycle Corporation page at least for further review and to allow me to continue strengthening the article. Thanks very much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Synthality (talk • contribs) 18:01, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

What you had was a lot of press releases, a few general profiles that regurgitated company PR, but no significant coverage that is ndependent of the company. You can take this to WP:DRV if you disagree. Courcelles 18:20, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Re: Grammy Award for Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance

Thank you for reviewing the list. I went ahead and added an additional source, as requested. Please let me know if there are any other concerns you wish to be addressed. Thanks! --Another Believer _(Talk) 20:50, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Commons

Yes, I am painfully aware that capitalization matters, and the annoying thing is that the so-called "Commons Helper" insists on lower-casing the JPG to jpg. In those cases, I tried to retain the upper case upon re-uploading into commons. But it's possible I missed some. If I did, is there any easy way to find out? Also, at commons, is it possible to rename a file? ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 00:33, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't think so... I've just learned to check my logs when doing a few, to see if any red links pop up where they shouldn't. (I check the images before deletion, of course, but that's the last sanity check.) You can ask for a file-mover right from an admin Commonsside, but I don't know what they are looking for when they pass it out. Courcelles 00:38, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

At this point, rather than "looking for trouble", I think I'll just keep quiet until someone brings a problem to my attention (which they have, for a few items). I was reading about how the commons stuff is supposed to be "educational" and "high quality". I'm not sure all my uploads fit that description, but I'm fairly certain that a lot of uploads don't. I think what they're concerned about is people using commons as a free photo album or something. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 01:39, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Well, remember Commons has it written somewhere that anything a WMF project is using is automatically considered within scope, which can be a far shout from what we think of when we hear the word "educational" in its normal context. Courcelles 02:08, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

That raises the question, if I upload a photo I took, but it's not used anywhere within wikipedia (yet), are they liable to zap it? ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 03:17, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Some help

I'm having trouble with moving Giacomo "Jackie" DiNorscio to the new title of just Jackie DiNorscio (but I'm having trouble with the Redirect page name Jackie DiNorscio) Can you help, Thanks --Vic49 (talk) 21:33, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

What you needed was for someone to delete Jackie DiNorscio, as with two revisions in history, you can't move something over the redirect (You can only do that if there is a single revision in the history.) You will now be able to move the article. Courcelles 21:45, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Better-with-you.jpg

When I added it, the article had no image at the time. Now it appears someone has changed the image on the article to their liking so my image is no longer necessary. Feel free to delete it because I can't figure out how to. Any tips on how to delete it? Thanks. --Redsox42311 (talk) 01:47, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) For pages (including files) that you have created and are the only substantial contributor to, you can request for that page to be speedily deleted under G7 criteria by placing the following template on the page:

This will allow administrators and other users who have the ability to delete pages to delete it in a fairly short amount of time. I have since tagged the file for you and it will be delete shortly. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:13, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank You!--Redsox42311 (talk) 00:39, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

image:holynamecathedralemptyintertior.jgp

You deleted this image (uploaded in 2004), despite it being labled - "this may be deleted after January 14, 2011" It looks to me like you got carried away, and were 7 days early. The uploader is still semi-active and I had asked him to comment/repair the copyright tag. I'm sure you understand that the rules in 2004 were slightly different than they are now. I'd hate to think that in 2018 all my uploads will be deleted because they violate a rule instituted, say, in 2015! So please undelete this image and we'll go through a proper procedure. Smallbones (talk) 02:48, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Correct link, File:Holynamecathedralemptyinterior.jpg... investigating. Courcelles 02:50, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

No, this was a correct deletion, the tag said, "This file has no source information. Source information must be provided so that the copyright status can be verified by others. Unless a source is given, the image will be deleted after Friday, 7 January 2011. Please remove this template if source information is provided." and was added on 31 December by Kelly. Courcelles 02:51, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

On January 7, 2011 at National Register of Historic Places listings in Central Chicago the following notice was placed by SoxBot (I'd give the diff but it is a huge page) "Holy Name Cathedral This file is a candidate for speedy deletion. It may be deleted after Friday, January 14, 2011." I notified User:Kelly to hang on as soon as I saw that, and also contacted the uploader. And just to be sure that you understand - this file was uploaded in 2004 - it's practically an antique in Wiki terms. What's the rush to delete it? Please just undelete it and we can go through a reasonable procedure, probably with the uploader's participation. Smallbones (talk) 03:01, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

User:Kelly suggests taking it to WP:Requests for Undeletion so I'll take it there. Smallbones (talk) 03:10, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

SoxBot was just plain wrong- I am looking at the deleted page and can see exactly when the "delete after seven days" template was placed; 31 December 2010, at 07:10. If and when a source is provided, we can restore the image at that time. Note the uploaded was notified on 31 December and chose to remove the notice the next day. Courcelles 03:12, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

It's at requests for undeletion - I simply don't see what the need for rushing is, and why a timely request to hang on wouldn't be honored. Smallbones (talk) 03:21, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Simple, there was no rush as the above diffs clearly demonstrate. Courcelles 03:22, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

The King Is Dead (album) and Down By the Water

Hey Courcelles,

The song was moved earlier tonight by SomeGuy11112 to its' own article. I left a message on the users' talk page, but if you would be willing, I would simply like to revert the album to an earlier revision since I believe the song article does not warrant its' own article, then I would suggest putting a speedy on the song article. This would un-orphan the image. - Theornamentalist (talk) 04:10, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

A single cover isn't going to pass NFCC 8 in an album article, though. If you think the song should not have an article, just redirect it to the album article- there is no speedy criteria that will fit. Courcelles 04:13, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Got it; I was hesitant to move it back for fear of OWNing the article. I will wait until tomorrow to do the move or for the user to respond; might be better for SomeGuy11112 to see the policy. Either way the image does not need to be here so feel free to remove it at will. - Theornamentalist (talk) 04:23, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Done, thanks. Courcelles 04:25, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

AH deletions

Sure Okay, I'll do a proper AfD/CfD (but not right now.) Thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:53, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

inre File:Dead in the Water VHS cove.jpg

I updated and corrected the usage summary and free use rationale for this image... however, in researching, I subsequently found and uploaded a more suitable image. As this one no longer has a purpose and will most likely remain orphaned, I agree that its deletion best serves the project. Any way to hurry the CSD-F5 process along? Best, Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 06:25, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Sure; CSD G7 is made for just these situations. It's gone now, thanks. Courcelles 06:27, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks... I also realized that my image summaries way back then were not as complete as they are now. I'll be going back over them in the next couple days to make sure that earlier ones are all up to snuff. Best, Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 06:30, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
