Ourselves Alone

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Ourselves Alone, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.digitalfilmarchive.net/dfa/browseDisplay.asp?id=126. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:20, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Ourselves Alone is historically important in Ulster/Ireland and is one of early that Brian Desmond Hurst directed. There was no[REDACTED] entry on the movie and in creating a short overview of the movie the above website entry was accurate and useful and an extract would have served the entry well. Notwithstanding this an alternative brief summary has been presented to serve as a starting point. (Quartertoten (talk) 09:31, 29 December 2009 (UTC))

Brian Desmond Hurst

Please explain your disapproval of my more coventional citation format and why "Producer William MacQuitty produced a film" is better than "Producer William MacQuitty created a film"? Philip Cross (talk) 12:33, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Oversight on my part as I liked your additions and have restored these together with an additional comment on TY's early link on BDH movies (this latter comment seems to fit in the section about mentoring) (Quartertoten (talk) 09:25, 29 December 2009 (UTC))

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:TITG FrontCover LoRes.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:TITG FrontCover LoRes.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 15:55, 24 October 2018 (UTC) REPLY 26 October many Thanks for the feedback and help. I have copyright clearance and will provide the information as you have helpfully suggested.

File permission problem with File:TITG FrontCover LoRes.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:TITG FrontCover LoRes.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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-en@wikimedia.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-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages: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 in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones  18:25, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Thank you Ronhjones and I am adding this and hope this is sufficient.

The original publication was at www.briandesmondhurst.org see book tab. | Portion = Book cover only, a small portion of the commercial product. | Low resolution = Yes | Purpose = The image serves as the primary means of visual identification of the subject and Hurst and conflict on film. It illustrates the book about this core subject. | Replaceability = There is no free equivalent of this book cover, so the image cannot be replaced by a free image. | Other information = The use of the cover will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original. In particular, copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the book. The ticket number on the email to wiki permissions is 2018110710004143.

Original research

Please stop edit warring to insert your own personal opinions in Brian Desmond Hurst. If you want to describe someone's career, you must quote a reliable source, such as a professional film critic or scholar. You can't post your own analysis of someone's work. On Misplaced Pages, we call this original research, and it is forbidden. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 23:11, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

January 2019

Your recent editing history at Brian Desmond Hurst shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Additionally, referring to edits made it good faith as "vandalism" may be considered to be a personal attack - see Misplaced Pages:Avoid the word "vandal". Galobtter (pingó mió) 09:50, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
