::So what should my mother say to release it here as free? ] (]) 16:17, 20 August 2010 (UTC)


The article ] has been ]  because of the following concern:
:::It's not going to be easy, I'm afraid. This image has been previously published elsewhere, which means that we must confirm her authority carefully. The image seems to have been taken backstage at the awards ceremony during the press photography gathering. Having her provide her professional credentials would certainly be a good first step, to verify that she would have had access, as would asking her to send a high resolution version of the image rather than the low resolution version currently on Misplaced Pages. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:26, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
:'''Article fails to meet the ]'''


While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be ].
::::Well theres millions of the same picture everywhere of Selena so you don't have proof that I just took it off the internet, secondly yes she did took it backstage. And how does she do that? ] (]) 16:17, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::We don't need to prove that you just took it off the internet; when it exists elsewhere, you need to prove that you did ''not''. This is Misplaced Pages's policy. If your mother is a professional photographer, she should have professional credentials that she can use to verify. She could, for example, identify the press agencies she worked for and supply verification of this. Of course, if she took the photograph as a professional photographer, she may also need to verify that she did not do so as a work for hire for the press agency that obtained her access. But supplying a higher resolution image from her negative ought to help. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:21, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::What's a higher resolution image? And she's not going to that at all because that's her personal information, oh well I guess the photo is going to be deleted, such a shame that Misplaced Pages is so lame HAHAHAHA. ] (]) 16:24, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
::::::::I gather you must be young; forgive me if I'm mistaken, but when conversation devolves to the point of "Misplaced Pages is so lame HAHAHAHA", I presume that I am not talking to an adult. If your mother is a professional photographer, as you say, she will know what I mean by "higher resolution image". It should be no problem for her to comply. You can ask her about it, and I'm sure she'd be happy to give you a detailed explanation and perhaps even show you an example from her own work. In terms of her personal information, very likely that information was already publicized by whomever hired her to take that photograph at the time, but if you feel she would not wish it publicized here, then, yes, certainly the image will be deleted. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:30, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::I gather that your stupid; forgive me if no one told you that if '''ANYONE''' dares to talk shit or says something to me that is offensive then I will attack back. I don't hold shit in so don't get it twisted. I am not going to tell her at all, you just have gotten me pissed at your stupid comment that you made. So go delete it and have joy in doing so, "haha oh look at me I'm deleting a photo OMG this is so fun yay yay" that's how you sound HAHAHHAAH. '''Lame'''.
::::::::::It seems that in addition to our copyright policies, you may need to become familiar with ]. This in itself can result in your account being blocked, which would be a shame if you're truly interested in working on these articles. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:37, 21 August 2010 (UTC)


You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your ] or on ].
::::::::Your the one who keeps attacking me with your stupid comments about me and the photos, I dont back down so if your going to contiune to attack me then hell yea bring it on. ] (]) 16:39, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::Please see ]. There is no attack in presuming you are unfamiliar with our copyright policies and advising you how to comply. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:40, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::Well by saying this "I gather you must be young; forgive me if I'm mistaken, but when conversation devolves to the point of "Misplaced Pages is so lame HAHAHAHA", I presume that I am not talking to an adult" is no way to talk to me. Oh well no one told you that I dont back down, if you want to talk things through lets do it other wise I'm not going to let some girl I don't even know talk to me like I'm a peace of shit. Hell no. ] (]) 16:42, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
::::::::::I don't equate being "young" with being "a piece of shit", though it does seem that I've offended you. Certainly, that wasn't my intention. Since Misplaced Pages has no age requirement, I was unsure of your age and if your mother would be a better person to explain photography resolution to you than I. In terms of backing down, the attitude your taking is also likely to lead you to trouble on Misplaced Pages. Please see ]. is not productive. You need to be able to discuss your differences calmly and politely with others, even if they are girls you don't know. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:47, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Well you should've never pissed me off with your comment about my age, about the photos, and about where you found the photo. You should've never kept putting up polices here about me being ''disruptive'' when you should take your own adivce. You need to learn how to come at people, as you can see I was poliet in asking how should my mother do so in keeping this photo, and asking you various of questions in what I do not understand. But yet you think I'm not going to react when you insulted me and offended me with your comment, but oh no you should know that just because I ''may'' be poliet doesnt mean that I'm a p****. I don't take shit from no one if you want to talk then talk, dont come on my talk page bringing your useless comments. Peace out. ] (]) 16:52, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::I have answered each of your questions to the best of my ability. I do wonder, though, if you really feel that "such a shame that Misplaced Pages is so lame HAHAHAHA." is being polite. It was this comment that made me wonder if I was addressing a youth, so it obviously predated my comment that offended you. --] <sup>]</sup> 16:57, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Because of this "Well theres millions of the same picture everywhere of Selena so you don't have proof that I just took it off the internet, secondly yes she did took it backstage." (what I said) then you said this "We don't need to prove that you just took it off the internet; when it exists elsewhere, you need to prove that you did ''not''. This is Misplaced Pages's policy." I have been trying to show proof but f*** this you was coming at me very rudely. I will just upload a new picture another day. ] (]) 16:59, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
{{unindent}}That's not rude; that's a statement of fact. It is as true of me as an administrator and an OTRS volunteer as it is of any other contributor. Misplaced Pages's policy is not discriminatory. I ''do'' have to warn you, though, that the end of your comment sounds like a threat. Our copyright policy requires that you verify permission for images that you upload that have been published elsewhere. If you keep uploading pictures without doing this, even if they are different pictures, you may be blocked or not allowed to upload any more images at all. There have already been two images uploaded by you at ] that have been deleted for copyright concerns; the one you have now was in fact already deleted following ]. --] <sup>]</sup> 17:09, 21 August 2010 (UTC)


Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the ], but other ]es exist. In particular, the ] process can result in deletion without discussion, and ] allows discussion to reach ] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> ] (])

::Ok, I re-read it, and fair enough, I can accept that you might have been talking about other people not liking you. (I concur with the comment above; no-one's out to get you). However, your comment about threatening you was clearly directed at me: "Also YOU need to know that YOU should NEVER threaten me EVER because I don't play fair nor do I back down from ANYONE as you can tell on my old talk page. I know theres rules and stuff like that but once you cross me I can be just as mean as anyone maybe even worse". Was that really fair?--]] 08:43, 20 August 2010 (UTC)


All those who reached the final win awards, and awards will also be going to the following participants:
::::The comment that you made (so I suggest you add some sources to the time line, or it will be removed.) could've been said a little better, the way you threw that at me wasn't very nessary. That comment really didn't sit well with me. ] (]) 16:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::Ok, well I'm sorry you took it that way, it certainly wasn't my intention to "threaten" you or to imply any kind of power to ruin your work or take it away from you. The thing is, ] is a very important part of Misplaced Pages, and it's really up to the editor adding information to make sure they provide sources. Otherwise, "]" - it can be removed by ''any'' editor, and that's what I meant. I wasn't actually intending to remove it myself immediately, preferring to discuss it first, but when I looked at it more closely, I realised that there is contentious information about a living person (]). The ] is also taken very seriously at Misplaced Pages. Information about living people must be sourced very carefully, especially information that is contentious or might be challenged. It doesn't matter if that person is a convicted criminal - it still applies. And really, it's the kind of detail that needs proper sourcing anyway, even if all the people involved were dead.


*{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant9|Casliber}} wins the FA prize, for three featured articles in round 2.
:::::Now, as for sources, did you read the two pages I linked to at ]? If not, have a look and see if things are any clearer. If you're still not sure, let me know some examples of sources you want to cite and I'll help you with it.--]] 17:30, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
*{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant9|Courcelles}} wins the GA prize, for 92 good articles in round 3.

I looked at the article's history and, while you have been editing it for its benefits, I do however see inexperience. Also, ], an article you created about her terrible murder, is a little unnecessary. I like that it could be made into a Good Article like ]. But in its current condition, merging with the Selena article is probably the best thing to do. With that all being said, I would like to help you on Misplaced Pages.

:Well at first, I created a sandbox for "Death of Selena" until I had suitable sources. But since you think that it would be best to merge it in the article, the only thing that is bothering me is that all that information might be shrunk, removed, or just only the lead will be on that section.

WikiCup 2019 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2. With 56 contestants qualifying, each group in Round 2 contains seven contestants, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for Round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining contestants.

Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • United States L293D, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with ten good articles on submarines for a total of 357 points.
  • Adam Cuerden, a WikiCup veteran, came next with 274 points, mostly from eight featured pictures, restorations of artwork.
  • Denmark MPJ-DK, a wrestling enthusiast, was in third place with 263 points, garnered from a featured list, five good articles, two DYKs and four GARs.
  • United States Usernameunique came next at 243, with a featured article and a good article, both on ancient helmets.
  • Squeamish Ossifrage was in joint fifth place with 224 points, mostly garnered from bringing the 1937 Fox vault fire to featured article status.
  • Ohio Ed! was also on 224, with an amazing number of good article reviews (56 actually).

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews on 143 good articles, one hundred more than the number of good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Well done all!

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Reviews.

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

WikiCup 2023 September newsletter

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were

  • New York (state) Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
  • Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
  • Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.

Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Misplaced Pages and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)
