[edit] Brad Fiedel

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for contributing to the Brad Fiedel article. Unfortunately, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, please refer to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! — Shadowhillway 05:03, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Very very sorry! What happened was the wording of the Wikipedia article and your Web page were exactly the same, (mis)leading me to believe that someone had just copied verbatim from a 3rd party site. I was completely oblivious to your name at the bottom of your Web site. My apologies.
In order to prevent mistakes like mine, I would suggest the following. In the "Edit summary" box on article edit pages, write something like:
expanded article using content from my Web site Movie Music UK. I am the copyright owner and give permission for the material to be included in Wikipedia.
So when other editors look at their watchlists and notice that you've made a change to an article, they will see this edit summary and realize that the edit is legit.
It may also be helpful to note on your user page that you film composers is one of your areas of interest and that will you will be contributing your own material to WP which originates from your Web site. Enjoy! — Shadowhillway 13:56, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Capecodcrusaders.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Capecodcrusaders.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:04, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PDL clubs

I disagree with your classification of PDL club as 'professional' in player info boxes. PDL teams are amateur because they use college players who retain their eligibility. That is why I listed them under 'Youth clubs' with colleges in player infoboxes. I think we should revert to that style, keeping PDL teams listed under 'Youth clubs' ... let me know what you think.

I checked on JY's talk page and couldn't tell whether a conclusion has been reached on this. I've been abiding by your style for a while now, and I think I prefer it. However, assuming that outfits like the Chicago Fire Premier are integrated into the new MLS youth system next year, do you think we should move them into "youth clubs"? Even under the current situation, there's a decent argument for taking the few PDL teams that are directly attached to MLS clubs and moving them into the "youth" category - while leaving independent PDL outfits as "professional clubs". The Bradenton Academics present another such quandary. Bill Oaf 05:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
And while I'm at it, do you know what's what with Crystal Palace F.C. USA/Crystal Palace Baltimore, who some say are joining the PDL for '07 and others say are now gonna join the USL-2? Bill Oaf 08:29, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
No problem with the disambigs. I added all the team pages to my watchlist as I went, so as to help keep them ship-shape and gradually improve them. I also took note of a few player pages that needed some work, and, for that matter, switched back the Chicago Fire Premier status (from youth to pro) on two players (Danny O'Rourke and someone else, I forget) where I'd switched it in the past. Another thing: when it comes to players who are working on some sort of loan arrangement and are listed on the rosters of both MLS teams and USL sides, we may want to start specifying their status. That might be the next good project: getting the details on these arrangements and marking them on WP. Bill Oaf 03:24, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Northamptonlaurels.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Northamptonlaurels.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 17:25, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
