Welcome to Cyrillic Talk

Greetings everyone, feel free to voice your opinions and suggestions

Image copyright

Hi, you appear to have uploaded Image:Marayoor2.jpg. It is currently marked as {{copyrighted}}, which means we would have to delete the picture as it would not be free for people to reproduce. However, it appears that you re-uploaded the image with the {{PD-user}} tag, but this does not appear on the page. If you did create the image and intend to release it in this fashion, would you mind going to the image description page and editing it with the correct tag to confirm this? Thank you. --Michael Snow 22:19, 31 August 2005 (UTC)


Thanks for mentioning it, the picture was taken by me and I was intention was giving the copyright to Misplaced Pages, but I misread the --copyright--tag, I apologize and will change the tag immediately. --Cyril Thomas 13:27, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing it. --Michael Snow 15:47, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Marayoor

No, I wasn't asking for the district name :D. Please in the future would you use the + sign on top of the page to post a new message. Thanks. Posting on top is considered a little annoying by some. I see you've not been welcomed to the Indian group, so let me welcome you formally, and I'll list some India-related links below: Regards, User:Nichalp/sg 13:44, September 1, 2005 (UTC)


It's really an outstanding work. I wish I could do something like that for my home town :-) Tintin

Thanks for voting for me in RFB. Your images are pretty good. I have a suggestion: instead of uploading it here in the English wikipedia, I strongly suggest you upload it in commons:, so that it can be embedded in all wikimedia projects. All the images on the India page are from commons. You'd need to create an account there first. I'd also suggest you put some of your best work up for featured status here. Thanks User:Nichalp/sg 04:54, September 2, 2005 (UTC)

Your image is featured in portal:India! User:Nichalp/sg 10:35, September 4, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you User:Nichalp/sg for your kind effort, much appreciated. --Cyril Thomas 18:28, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Nice to meet you

I saw a message posted by you in the talk page of User:Nichalp and came here to greet you. I have seen most of Kerala and it is really a beautiful state. Your edits are also nice. --Bhadani 14:56, 3 September 2005 (UTC)


Thank you Bhadrani for the kind words

Re: Steel Claw

No problem Cyrillic. Adding the oldpeerreview tag is standard practice when archiving old reviews. Cheers! Christopher Parham (talk) 19:10, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Agent Corrigan

Thank you so much Steve, I changed it to "{GFDL-presumed}". Hope that will be enough. Thanks again. --Cyril Thomas 11:32, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

No, that's definitely the wrong tag, the image will definitely have a copyright holder who would object to any suggestion that it had been released under the GDFL. What is required is to track down the websitre you uploaded it in from and enter that information on the image description page. Then the no source tag can be removed. Thanks in advance, Steve block talk 14:20, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

Okay Steve, Let me search for the website. As soon as I find it, I will let you know. Thanks ! --Cyril Thomas 13:07, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Image:Uderzogoscinny.jpg

The picture lacks information on source and creator. This is needed to verify its license status, which you say is GFDL. --149.229.97.199 16:16, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your suggestion, however there is a problem, the picture was scanned from a decades old Indian newspaper (The Hindu) clipping, becuase it is a clipping I couldn't trace back the date. I added it in the summary , hope it will do. Thanks again. --Cyril Thomas 18:25, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Welcome to the project! Be sure to check out the Project Home page. It's just starting up, so any help that would be great. Maybe add yourself to the "Members" list on the right. :) -- Shane 18:22, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Go for it. That's what we are here for.. :) -- Shane 18:42, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
My work on the main FBI could use some more help to get the article to WP:FA status. Think you can look over the article and suggestions so there is another set of eyes work on it? -- Shane 20:18, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure, I will be checking the page. --Cyril Thomas 10:24, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure Deepu, but you must have been noted that I am not that interested in Kerala topics right now. I have miles to go before I sleep :) --Cyril Thomas 18:18, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure, no probs. You are welcome anytime. :-)
Sorry I took so long to reply. I never had your page on my watchlist, and had missed it till now. But hey, better 6 months late than never. By the way, Kerala now has a standalone WikiProject at WP:KERALA. Good luck with your editing.--thunderboltz 14:21, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Cyrilic, this image is missing information on who the original photographer was and where he gave his permission to use it under the GFDL. Scanning a picture from a newspaper unfortunately doesn't give you the right to put it under a free license by yourself. --88.134.45.6 02:07, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Reply

Hi wikifriend, Thanks for your mail, I am sorry I used the wrong tag. I actually scanned it from a comic book flap, and unfortunately they didn't give any information except a logo of froost or something like that. I don't remember, because I scanned it while I was a student, and an ardent fan of Asterix comics :). Well, I just changed the licencing tag to -Comiccover Hope that would settles it. Thanks again. --Cyril Thomas 17:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Yojimbo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Yojimbo.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. Thank you. --195.113.166.134 09:45, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Corrected the info. I guess it's scanned from Sekai Nippo Newspaper Thank you for pointing it out. --Cyril Thomas 16:41, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Image:Leastub.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Leastub.jpg, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Hartswardvd.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Hartswardvd.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Misplaced Pages and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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.

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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Quentin X 12:18, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Hi Cyril. It wasn't that there was no source on the image, it was that there isn't a page that it is on now that the original Hart's War poster with both Willis and Farrell has taken over. I'm going to re-orphan it from today. If you can put it on another page then un-orphan it... (Quentin X 11:51, 11 October 2006 (UTC))

Reg: Grizzled Giant Squirrels

Hi,

I came across an usage of the picture of Grizzled Giant Squirrel (uploaded by you) in the Kerala page. It is a fact that they are endangered (only 300 in number ), and there is only one sanctuary in South India, as of now (Senbagathope Giant Squirrel Santuary, which is in Tamil Nadu). I'd like to verify the source of location of the photograph uploaded by you. Was it really taken in Kerala? If yes, that may contradict the official records of their Habitat. Please clarify as soon as possible. Happy editing -- Chez 06:58, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Reply

Dear Chezhiyan, Greetings, yes, Grizzled Giant Squirrels are certainly an endangered species, found not only in Tamil Nadu but Marayoor too, in Kerala. The picture of GGS was taken by my friend Vijayan P.P. In Chinnar Sanctuary, there are lot of endangered flora and fauna still thrive. If you go to Marayoor, you will be amazed by its richness. Best wishes, --Cyril Thomas 02:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm really happy to hear that they survive beyond their sanctuary. Cheers. --06:29, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Award

The Original Barnstar
For many contributions with limited reward (you have a huge Wiki-portfolio and no awards!), I present you with this Original Barnstar. Sharkface217 01:09, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Welcome

You are quite welcome for the barnstar. Hopefully in the future others recognize your work on Misplaced Pages. In fact, I'd suggest you try running for administrator sometime. Sharkface217 02:35, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome!

Hey Cyril! No problem -- I have a tool that makes it easier to do disambiguation. It's a wonderful thing. If you're at all interested in disambiguation, you might want to look here and here. Happy editing! --Tkynerd 03:16, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

No problem

Daniel is actually my adopter, but not to worry. Was planning to do some more work on the Leon Radzinowicz article but got slightly slowed down working out which Knight category he went into. I'll take another look at it over the next couple of days, time permitting. One Night In Hackney 20:04, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Heather Martin

A tag has been placed on Heather Martin, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done because the article is a repost of either already posted material, or of material that was previously deleted under Misplaced Pages's criteria for speedy deletion. If you can indicate how Heather Martin is different from all other articles, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}}, and also put a note on Talk:Heather Martin saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Misplaced Pages, and we ask you to follow these instructions. SUBWAYguy 00:51, 28 December 2006 (UTC) ==The article made an editorial conflict, while I was editing and working on the page, it seems the page deleted as it is progressing. Heather Martin is a minor celebrity with her song "When are you coming home" and millions would be checking Misplaced Pages for her. Thank you. --Cyril Thomas 01:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Your welcome

BTW, you should use the "Move" tab if your going to move the observatory page, as the history will then be moved along with the page. That page almost looks good enough to send to WP:GA, though they'll probably want more refs.--Rayc 20:12, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Recent edit to Kyril

Thank you for your recent edit to Kyril. Your edit included one or more links to the page Greek, which is a disambiguation page. This type of page is intended to direct users to more specific topics. Ordinarily we try to avoid creating links to disambiguation pages, since it is preferable to link directly to the specific topic relevant to the context. You can help Misplaced Pages by revising the links you added to Kyril to refer directly to the most relevant topic.
