- As a general rule, that won't work. Notices, such as the one above, are placed by a script which will place notices for you here rather than elsewhere. Also note that we do around 2,000 deletions every day -- ten Admins do most of that work and they do not have time to comply with special requests -- that's too bad, but we're on the bare edge of being overwhelmed by the 8,000 new files Commons gets every day.
- To avoid coming here frequently to look for new messages, you can ask for an e-mail whenever this page changes -- it's at the bottom of

- Got it. Thanks for good work you do here. Well, in this case, I am changing my wording then. Z22 (talk) 22:32, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
My talk page — take two
[edit]You can also find me on my English Wikipedia talk page (w:en:User talk:Z22). It's not a request that you go there. I'm just saying I'm there too. Z22 (talk) 22:32, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Inquiry of permission of re-using a figure in our book
[edit]Dear Z22,
This is Dr. Jia He. I'm sending this message to inquire your permission of re-using one of your photos as Figure 3.5 in our forthcoming book. The photo is about seismometer, and the link to that photo is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:CMG-40T_Triaxial_Broadband_Seismometer.JPG
If you don't mind, could you please allow me to re-use this photo in our book of "Smart Civil Structures"? The source of this figure will be certainly cited in a proper way. Thanks very much for your kind help and support. Look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for uploading File:Candlepin pinsetter.webm. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

Sewerage outflow
[edit]As far as I know, these were straight-out sewerage outflow pipes until the Lake Washington cleanup in the early 1970s. Do you have some specific reason to think otherwise? - Jmabel ! talk 20:28, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Jmabel. So, they are not outfalls to the lake? I think outflow pipes into a body of water is called outfalls. Z22 (talk) 21:57, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
