A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The Motherland (Peru), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Can you help here? Thank you. --78.51.82.3 (talk) 18:17, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NFCC #9 policy, we are not permitted to use fair use images on templates. You've been adding a number of coats of arms to various templates. Many of these coats of arms are marked as non-free images used under terms of fair use on Wikipedia. Please stop adding such images. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 21:32, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• This edit of yours added File:Coat of arms of marshall islands.png to Template:Politics of the Marshall Islands. If you look at the coat of arms description page, you will see under summary that it says "Non-free media". Further down under licensing, there is a box noting that this image is copyrighted, and used under terms of fair use on Wikipedia. This is not a free image. I hope I've made that clear. Now, as to the policy, WP:NFCC #9 specifically restricts the location of use of copyrighted material to actual articles. Quoting the policy, "Non-free content is allowed only in articles". Templates are not articles. Non-free media can not be used on templates. Period. I've reverted your addition of this media to that template. Please stop adding copyrighted material to templates. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 21:59, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

HS, as the image was created in 1912 (see image page), it is not eligible for copyright in the US. As such I've reverted your changes.

Wikiperuvian, I strongly advise that you review these images and make sure they are properly labeled. I've fixed information on the coat of arms from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and I think it is likely that all of these images meet the same criteria. If they meet the criteria as public domain images, please use the appropriate templates to indicate this. If you need help, please contact me on my user page and I'll see what I can do to assist. — BQZip01 — ^talk 04:22, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Peru sidebar has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for discussion page. Thank you. Victor12 (talk) 15:19, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop putting the national seal of Peru in the Peru article infobox. The Peruvian constitution only mentions three national symbols, there's no point in adding more to an already large infobox. Greetings, --Victor12 (talk) 15:25, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
