Is there a place where I could request that an image be created/uploaded? Specifically, I was thinking about the logo of charity: water, which is easy to find on the internet but not yet on WP. Thanks. Delaywaves ^talk 01:31, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have uploaded it for you. Uploading organization logos are pretty straightforward.-- Obsidi♠n Soul 03:22, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The uploading is pretty straightforward, but the free use rationale tagging can be daunting for new users. – ukexpat (talk) 13:26, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I realize the uploading is simple, I just thought there might be some sort of fancy, svg, vector kind of thing to do. I've uploaded enough photos to know how fair use works, thank you very much! :) Delaywaves ^talk 21:58, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

@ukexpat: Nah, I do mean it's pretty easy when it comes to logos. They come with their own fair use rationales if you follow the correct uploading link. Only thing you have to add, in addition to the file itself, is the article name and the link to the source. Other fair-use images are more problematic, of course.

@Delaywaves, you're welcome. And nope, low-quality (or low resolution) versions of non-free images are actually required when it comes to fair use images. They must only be big enough to be recognizable. If you go higher quality than that (as in an SVG or something else), it can't anymore be considered fair use.-- Obsidi♠n Soul 22:10, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know, but I was thinking that if the logo was uploaded as just text, it wouldn't fall under the threshold of originality thing, like this image. The full logo looks better, though. Thanks again. Delaywaves ^talk 02:20, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In view of the fact that from time to time (for example, since 28 Sept 2011 for the Yang Quyun redirect, and since 1 Oct, 2011, for the Yeung Kui-wan article) Henrik's 'Page View Statistics' seems to be not doing its job, it is sad (and a great pity) that such a great tool doesn't seem to get official Wikipedia support. For me, as a fledgling contributor, it is essential to be able to follow the evolution of hits on 'my' articles' on a daily basis. It also seems to be very popular with many other contributors.

So, I plead that someone 'up there' has a look at this tool and makes it an official, Wikipedia function, which will be maintained on a regular basis. Please advise what are Wikipedia's policy and planning for this tool.

It would be perhaps interesting to set-up a poll to sound out just what is the level of interest in Henrik's 'Page View Statistics'.

Sorry if this is not the correct forum. If this is not the place to register this plea, please advise where in the panoply of Wikipedia it will 'hit the right spot'! Duncan.france (talk) 02:47, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Tillman (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Someone needs to take this down! The information displayed on this page is largely biased, created by University of South Carolina fan and is a disgrace to a former public figure. There are families that are affected by these lies and Wiki pages shouldn't be used for ones personal gain. I for one was offended by the disgraceful choice made by the author. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.226.147.59 (talk) 04:35, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article on Tillman has multiple authors, and appears (at least on initial inspection) to be properly sourced. Given that he died in 1918, I find it difficult to see how 'families' are likely to be significantly affected in any case: can you elaborate on what the 'lies' are, and how anyone could be using such alleged 'lies' about events in the distant past for 'personal gain'? We are unlikely to 'take down' an article without evidence from reliable sources, or at least, without an indication as to what the problem actually is.

Thank you for drawing attention to this. Since the allegation was added without any indication of where the information came from, any editor may remove it (see WP:BURDEN). I have removed that sentence and will keep an eye on the article.

I've noticed that sometimes, when I place a warning notice or speedy deletion notification on an otherwise blank user talkpage, a welcome template is automatically added as well. That's not a problem - far from it - but I'm curious to know what the criteria are for adding the welcome template. It doesn't happen all the time, so there must be some function in the template structure which decides whether or not to welcome the user or just substitute the warning template on its own. Yunshui (talk) 08:41, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One of the templates that does this is {{ProdwarningBLP}}. It uses the clever coding in {{First article if new}}. When this detects that you are creating a brand new user talk page, it throws in a welcome template above the warning. -- John of Reading (talk) 11:44, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I need some guidance with some titles, ie Chidvilasananda and Muktananda. Some editors have argued that titles like this should not be used in an article title, but in this case these people are never known as anything else. Their full titles are Swami Chidvilasananda and Swami Muktananda, so would it be acceptable practice to use these names as the article titles? Can't find this in the titles policies. Sardaka (talk) 10:15, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:COMMONNAME, we usually use the title by which the person is most commonly referred to in English. These should probably be Gurumayi Chidvilasananda and Swami Muktananda respectively, based on a few minutes research on my part, but someone with more knowledge and access to sources should make the decision. Yunshui (talk) 10:55, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

However, article titles don't use personal titles like "Mr." and "Dr." and "Reverend" or things like that. Wouldn't a title like "Swami" fit into this mold; it's a title and not a personal name, and so shouldn't be part of the article title, n'est ce pas? --Jayron32 13:23, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be appropriate to put unpublished scientific results by someone else (who said I may update the article in question with that information) on my userpage and let them stay there indefinitely? I think it would not fall into one of the categories listed at WP:UPNO, it is unpublished information I received from someone else through personal communication outside of Wikipedia related to the topic of an article here on Wikipedia. Toshio Yamaguchi (talk) 11:53, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I do not believe it would be appropriate for you to add their unpublished results to your page. Your page is to coordinate your activities here on Wikipedia and these results do not relate to those activities. GB fan 12:08, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You might work information into a draft of an article, and put it in your userspace - something like User:Toshio Yamaguchi/Draft or some such. But unpublished results are inherently unreliable by our standards - they may well be accurate, but they are (by definition) not published in a reliable source. I'm not sure they'd be appropriate for an article, unless they could be verified or collaborated in some way using published sources. UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 13:03, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the information would be appropriate for a draft article, as I don't believe the information in question will be published in the near future. But I guess if I manage to formulate it in a clever way, I could place that information on my userpage as something like information about my personal beliefs (for example I could create a userbox saying something like: "This user believes that (insert unpublished result here) is true.") :) Toshio Yamaguchi (talk) 13:32, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't think that to be particularly appropriate.

There is a incongruency:

In link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Allende, they say Allende´s spouse, Hortensia Bussi, died in 1973. However, link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hortensia_Bussi indicates that she died in year 2009.

Please read this. If your book is highly notable, it will probably be added by someone else, and if it's not very notable, your edits would look like you're promoting yourself. CityOfSilver 21:11, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
