User talk:Thunderbike

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Thunderbike!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Wikimedia Commons has a specific scope

---

Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content, User:Thunderbike, was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope. Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter. Thank you for your understanding.

What kind of rule at wikimedia forbids a gallery on the userpage? By the way, i have not seen any reason for a quick-delete of our personal userpage. Please remove this flag. -- Thunderbike Customs Germany 16:00, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Removed {{Speedy}} from User:Thunderbike

I've removed the {{Speedy}} from this user page -- Thunderbike has responded constructively at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Thunderbike-Spectacula.jpg. Let's let that discussion conclude before we speedily delete the user page. These are, after all, gorgeous images which I, for one, would like to keep.      Jim . . . .

Permission

I have read your e-mail at OTRS ticket #2011040410015065. It is pretty clear to me that the person who sent the e-mail is the same as User:Thunderbike, but the e-mail does not say so explicitly. I think it would be a good idea of you sent another e-mail via OTRS saying explicitly that User:Thunderbike has permission to post images from the Thunderbike company.

I know this may seem silly, but please remember that there is nothing in our system that prevents me from creating a new account called User:Harley-Davidson -- the e-mail connects the user name with the company. We are, after all, just trying to protect the integrity of the company's copyright. Thanks,      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 11:38, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Does the ticket also cover File:Jever-Custombike.jpg? --Túrelio (talk) 20:00, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

No the e-mail mentions only the logo, but from its context it looks to me like our uploader works for or owns the company. However it does not say that in so many words -- hence my request above.

In fact, my concern is not if he has permission, but if it is too close to promotional -- since the bikes are interesting pieces, I'm OK with that, but it's a close thing.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 23:06, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
