September 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Bulusan Volcano National Park has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/3712/embulusan.html (matching the regex rule geocities\.com).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 22:12, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Arbcom election

Dear Joel,
I notice you are preparing a candidacy for the 2009 ARBCOM election. I'm afraid your account is not passing the criteria for candidates since it didn't have the required 1,000 mainspace edits as of 00:00 UTC on 10 November 2009.
Is it OK if I just delete Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2009/Candidate statements/joefran4, or do you want me to move it to your user space?

Adoption

Greetings Joefran4, I see you're up for adoption, and I'm in the market. If ever you need advice or answers, just ask me -- any question, any time. I'd like to help however I can. Happy editing - Draeco (talk) 19:05, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

Nomination of Aldersgate Christian School of Pampanga for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Aldersgate Christian School of Pampanga is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jack and Jill School until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Moray An Par (talk) 13:19, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Alders logo.gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Alders logo.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 03:40, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Sure delete it. Thanks Joefran4 (talk) 06:21, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

A cheeseburger for you!

Hello, it's nice reading your contribution. I wish I could meet you someday. Chris Eilers (talk) 23:15, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

File:AIM Pilipinas First Bishop.jpeg missing description details

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:AIM Pilipinas First Bishop.jpeg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 01:59, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Yes I now provided some information on the image. Thanks. Joefran4 (talk) 05:13, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 19

Hi. When you recently edited Ang Iglesia Metodista sa Pilipinas, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trinitarian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Commons

Thank you for uploading free images/media such as File:Bulusan2 064.JPG to Wikipedia! As you may know, there is another Wikimedia Foundation project called Wikimedia Commons, a central media repository for all free media. In the future, please upload media there instead (see m:Help:Unified login). That way, all of the other language Wikipedias can use them too, as well as our many sister projects. This will also allow our visitors to search for, view and use our media in one central location. If you wish to move previous uploads to Commons, see Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons (you may view your previous uploads). Please note that non-free content, such as images claimed as fair use, cannot be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons. Help us spread the word about Commons by informing other users, and please continue uploading! --Stefan2 (talk) 23:54, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Your RfA

Per the template you put on your user page and your second edit, I believe you meant to start your RfA right now so I've subst'ed the timestamp. Good luck, Nolelover ^{Talk·Contribs} 14:25, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Joefran4

Hello Joefran4. I noticed you, or another editor created a Requests for Adminship page under your name, and I was wondering as to what the status of that request might be. Please note that new users are rarely successful at RfA and that the Wikipedia editing community sets an extremely high bar for potential administrator candidates. That being said, I strongly urge you to read Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship, Wikipedia:Adminship is not for new users, and Wikipedia:Not now, and ask you to reconsider whether you really do wish to go through with your candidacy; please understand that you stand very little to no chance of passing RfA at this point and that you are strongly discouraged from running for adminship. If you are still intent on running for adminship with that request and are absolutely positive this is what you want, please do let me know; otherwise, I'll go ahead and delete the RfA page for you in about a week or so from today. Eagles 24/7 (C) 16:48, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Hello, User:Eagles247, I take your suggestion. I decline from pursuing candidacy for this position. Joefran4 (talk) 18:06, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, I've deleted the page for you so that if/when you decide to run again, this request will not mar it. Eagles 24/7 (C) 18:08, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks and more power.Joefran4 (talk)

File permission problem with File:AIM Pilipinas Logo.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:AIM Pilipinas Logo.jpeg, which you've sourced to Ang Iglesia Metodista sa Pilipinas. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} 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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 20:42, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

 Ronhjones , I created this image and sent email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org for my permissions of whatever required of me. Thank you for your kind considerations. Joefran4 (talk) 07:43, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation

Your upload of File:Bulusan Lake Loop Way.jpeg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks! Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 14:31, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

• Another one of your uploads, File:Bulusan Lake Trail.jpeg, has also had some information automatically added. If you get a moment, please review the bot's contributions there as well. Thanks! Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 14:31, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
