Hello Nicolasbock and Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopedia and want to stay. As a first step, you may wish to read the Introduction.

I am afraid you will have to do a great deal more on FreeON if you want to avoid it being deleted. There are no sources and no assertion of notability. The one link says it is under construction. I think maybe that this article is premature. --Bduke (Discussion) 21:25, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, we are in the process of adding more information to the page. The page is a work in progress as well. Is there a deadline by which we should have the page complete? Nicolasbock (talk) 17:33, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pages are never complete, but it is always best to write something substantive with references all in one go, as some people leap are new articles and delete them. I think you have got it past that stage now. You may have been lucky. --Bduke (Discussion) 23:00, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I hope the page is more acceptable now. We are quite new to writing an article on wikipedia, so far we have only read them. Please let me know if there is anything you can think of in terms of improving our page and making it more fit in with the wikipedia philosophy. Nicolasbock (talk) 23:19, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:FreeON notext logo.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:FreeON notext logo.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — neuro^{(talk)(review)} 20:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have added source information for the image in question. Nicolasbock (talk) 20:49, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The page will shortly be deleted.

Copyright problem

Hi! I'm truly sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I have had to blank the page you created at Andersen thermostat because the wiki it is copied from, sklogwiki.org, is not licenced in a way that allows re-use here. There's some discussion of this at Talk:Path integral molecular dynamics. Unfortunately, the page needs to be completely rewritten from scratch. There are instructions on how and where to do that on the blanking template. The important thing is not to copy over any text from the previous version unless you are 100% sure that it is entirely in your own words. Again, I'm really sorry about this.

Proposed deletion of Peery Index

The article Peery Index has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no evidence of notabilty

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
