[edit] SGFSU article
I've proposed that your Student Government of Ferris State University article be merged with Ferris State University, which I've explained at Talk:Ferris State University. The main article is little more than a stub, and would be a more worthwhile project. Also, I'd like to encourage you to learn some more about how to format Wikipedia articles (i.e. don't use HTML tags) and avoid language like "arguably the most powerful" and "notorious"... Wikipedia is supposed to be limited to objectively factual information, not opinions. Tverbeek 12:51, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Todd McGee
A tag has been placed on your article Todd McGee, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Todd McGee is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Todd McGee. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. -- MisterHand 16:49, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Horner.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Horner.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. howcheng {chat} 16:22, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
