I removed your mention of the size of non-extended Binary Golay codes because there is no reference to them in the text of the Golay article. — Xoder|✆ 02:48, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
There should be a reference. I guess I'll have to write it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sigfpe (talk • contribs) 15:30, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
That failing in the Golay code article has now been fixed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sigfpe (talk • contribs) 18:03, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Alvanclark-leah.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Alvanclark-leah.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 00:04, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
FYI, I uploaded it on commons. - phe 00:45, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
That property of (Z/24Z)*[edit]
Two years ago you asked
- Hey! Do you have a reference that talks about the property of (Z/24Z)* you mentioned at 24 (number)? I'm interested to see how that property arises in connection with Moonshine. Sigfpe 17:21, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
--- unfortunately, even if I once had, I've forgotten where I may have gotten that from now, sorry. 4pq1injbok (talk) 01:48, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
File permission problem with File:Hexplode Screenshot.png[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Hexplode Screenshot.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. czar 21:16, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
I've no idea why this was deleted. There's no way for me to find out because the page is gone. The image was a screenshot of a game I wrote. It wasn't important. But I'm not going to bother submitting images to wikipedia again. Too much legal nonsense (this isn't the first time) and I resent the assumption I'm a criminal.
