Sorry about that. "Various sources" is sourced, how silly of me. If I tagged one with a proper source, then I must have been on a roll tagging all the unsourced ones. In the meantime I've placed the proper tag on it, since it is already on the commons. -- Nobunaga24 ( talk) 15:05, 4 September 2008 (UTC) reply

Image:US 1stlt.gif is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:Image:Ar 1stlt.gif. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[Image:Ar 1stlt.gif]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. -- Erwin85Bot ( talk) 15:10, 4 September 2008 (UTC) reply

See this. Thanks, Martin --22:34, 9 September 2008 (UTC) reply

What am I looking at? It is a regular double redirect fix. -- 22:44, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

From Amoeba to James Woods? Martin ( Smith609 –  Talk) 23:05, 9 September 2008 (UTC) reply

Yes. Such double redirects are infrequently created due to vandalism.

1. Testacea links to Amoeba. If Amoeba were to be converted into a redirect article Testacea would start pointing at a redirect. This is what we call a double redirect. In general double redirects are created by good faith page moves.
2. If you take a look at the two diffs ( [1], [2]) you can see that the article Amoeba was converted to a redirect twice (two consecutive vandalism by User:79.74.121.54).
3. The double redirect created by the above vandalism somehow made its way to Special:Doubleredirects, the mediawiki generated list of double redirects. This happens very rarely. Once or twice a year I believe.

So the problem is not with the bot but instead with the vandal. Bots are not smart like humans to differentiate vandalism with legit content.

Ah, that explains it. Thanks for clarifying! Martin ( Smith609 –  Talk) 23:44, 10 September 2008 (UTC) reply

No problem. Glad I could help -- Cat ^chi? 02:12, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

You do realize that my userbox uses the same free logo as yours (I mimicked yours), and has the official colors of the Google chrome logo right? -- Cat ^chi? 18:43, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

First of all, you lied saying something like "redirect to pre-existing template (or userbox)" while making my template page a redirect to yours. Second, the moment I checked your template and went to the history, I noticed someone had added a non-free logo, currently used in the Google Chrome page, so I removed (I didn't check history before reverting your immature redirect edit). So you must've checked the your current template but never checked your own history page as to why I said, "yours has a non-free logo". So.. how much of a newbie are you? -- staka ( T) 19:40, 11 September 2008 (UTC) reply

I did not lie. I created the userbox about 20 minutes before you. I had taken the time to figure out the colors on the Official Google Chrome logo and applied them to the template. I am quite new to the site. I am still learning things. There is no reason to make a big deal out of it.

Your tone is quite hostile. I suggest a quick adjustment.

Thanks for uploading Image:Kurdistan Workers Party flag (current).gif. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

A tag has been placed on Shivamurthy Sharanaru, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page.

If you can fix this redirect to point to an existing Wikipedia page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you also fix the redirect. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
