User talk:FOTEMEH

Welcome, FOTEMEH!

I'm Surya, and I noticed that you're new/you've been here a while, but no-one's welcomed you yet, so I thought I'd drop you a note. We do have a lot of users, and are currently working on 6,919,475 articles, so things can be a little intimidating... but don't worry! We love to help out, and we'll try our best to make your stay here as comfortable as possible.
Here are a few links I found useful when I first arrived here:-

Be Bold!
Don't let grumpy users scare you off
Meet other new users
Policies, guidelines, and rules
How to create a page, edit a page and write a great article
A handy tutorial, and a picture tutorial

You should sign your name on talk pages, discussions and votes by typing ~~~~; our software automatically converts it to your username and the date. Also, if you don't want to jump right into editing articles right now, why not check out the sandbox? Feel free to make test edits there.

I know it's a lot of information, but there are two more things I recommend you take note of while editing Wikipedia - cite references wherever possible, and avoid allowing personal biases interfere with your editing.

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian - I definitely do. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or problems, leave me a message on my talk page, and I'll try my best to help. Otherwise, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

We hope you stick around, and make sure you enjoy yourself! Cheers, Surya CyberoidX 12:23, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Problems

Thank you for experimenting with the page Felidae on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:30, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unhelpful and unconstructive information to Wikipedia, as you did to Albert Einstein. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Natalie 22:39, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to blank out (or delete portions of) page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Albert Einstein, you will be blocked from editing. Gwernol 22:59, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our neutral point of view policy will not be tolerated.

A tag has been placed on NerdyGirlsGeek, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because thearticle seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. barneca (talk) 19:59, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Look out! You moved the page DNA to a misspelled title. I have fixed it by moving the page to Deoxyribonucleic acid, the correct spelling, but please be more careful in the future. Natalie 00:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from Homo floresiensis. Please be more careful when editing articles and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Natalie 00:54, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted most of your edits to that page because they are not consisten with Wikipedia style. For example, changing {{main|Odie}} to See [[Odie]] was unnecessary because the "main article" template is considered standard. Similarly, changing Garfield (character) to Garfield was a mistake because Garfield is a disambiguation page - see, for example, James Garfield. However, do not despair! We were all newbies once, and you will learn. You may wish to ask for an experienced editor to adopt you. 69.201.182.76 16:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Correction: Garfield is about the comic strip. You can restore that link. Sorry. 69.201.182.76 16:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption

Thanks for the idea... but you forgot to sign on my page... and someone else showed up too :) CyberoidX 12:33, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Fetch with Ruff Ruffman.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Fetch with Ruff Ruffman.gif. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:26, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial use of Image:Fetch with RuffRuffman.gif

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Fetch with RuffRuffman.gif, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Fetch with RuffRuffman.gif has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Fetch with RuffRuffman.gif itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:40, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. IrishGuy ^talk 17:36, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

March 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Black people, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. We have some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 01:25, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry but i removed you on Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User/Adoptee's Area/Adopters because i felt that you only had 143 edits. 143 edits is not sufficient enough to be a adopter. --Cream (talk) 22:40, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Einstein's accomplishments‎

Did you cut and paste this from some other article? it seems to have been born full-bloom. Corvus cornix_talk 21:51, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree with Corvus. It seems like you're cutting from the main article on Einstein and pasting that into the Einstein's accomplishments page then creating links at all the spots where you moved the content. Any reason in particular? Jsmith86 (talk) 22:00, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
