Fair use rationale for :Image:Henri_Delaunay_Trophy.jpg ↗

70px|left ↗
Thanks for uploading or contributing to ''':Image:Henri_Delaunay_Trophy.jpg ↗'''. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use ↗ but there is no explanation or rationale ↗ as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template ↗, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here ↗.

Please go to the image description page ↗ and edit it to include a fair use rationale ↗. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline ↗ is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions ↗" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion ↗. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you. Rette tast 07:31, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Swedish Crusades ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 06:13, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Please use edit summaries

25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. I have noticed that you {{usertalk other|often ↗|often}} edit without using an edit summary ↗. Please do your best to '''always fill in the summary field'''. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences ↗. Thanks!  -- Mikeblas (talk) 18:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

your edit

could i revert your edit on list of wars involving sweden when you took away the first schleswig war installment? Sweden contributed alot more than just volunteers, even taking the german town of flensburg under occupation with some 3,000 official troops!

Thank you, have a great day! Dencoolast33 (talk) 06:35, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

:{{reply to|Dencoolast33}} The last war Sweden was directly involved in took place in 1814. I honestly don't think that anything after that should be included in the list. FrinkMan (talk) 20:01, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
::yes its true that the last formal war Sweden was involved in was in 1814 but i still believe that Sweden has acted as a true belligerent in many wars since. But i think that your opinion is valid as well, i wont revert your edit out of respect to you. Thanks for replying! Dencoolast33 (talk) 09:36, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
