Orphaned non-free image File:SP Seenivasagam.jpeg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:SP Seenivasagam.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:35, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:13 May aftermath.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:13 May aftermath.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. 廣九直通車 (talk) 04:57, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

Information icon Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Kuantan. When you were adding content to the page, you added duplicate arguments to a template which can cause issues with how the template is rendered. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find these errors as they will display in yellow at the top of the page. Thanks.

March 2026

Hello,

I hope you are doing well. I would like to kindly ask for your assistance regarding the Wikipedia article of Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.

In January 2026, there were reports that he had a fall, which is a significant update considering his age and public importance. Following that, he was hospitalized and has since been discharged. Most recently, he has already returned to work at the Perdana Leadership Foundation.

However, I noticed that these recent developments have not yet been updated on his Wikipedia page. As the article is currently protected until 2028, I understand that only certain editors are able to make changes.

Therefore, I was wondering if you could help review and possibly update this information, provided that reliable sources are available.

I believe this is an important update to ensure the article remains accurate and up to date, given his prominence in Malaysian history and politics.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Best regards, ~2026-19089-25 (talk) 16:42, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi, apologies for the late reply, but I'm not really editing articles beyond the scope of Penang. You may need to approach other active editors regarding this (you can refer to the revision history and find any editors with significant changes / make a new section in the article's talk page). Thanks. gavre (al. PenangLion) (talk) 10:46, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
