[edit] Jennifer Love Hewitt

Please see the "discussion" section on Hewitt's page. The info about her ancestry is almost certainly wrong, coming from unreliable websites like the IMDB. Vulturell 01:34, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent edit to New England Patriots

For your information, I reverted your edit to this article. The official name of the city is Foxborough. Still not convinced? You might want to check out the official web site of the city: http://www.townfoxborough.us/ Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 01:15, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Mancow

It's hardly "fucking around" as it improvement. Dispensable stockpiling information doesn't necessarily improve an article. I've already stated my suggestions on the Mancow's Morning Madhouse talk page; If you feel the article truly possess a professional and polished tone rivaling that that of a post high-school graduate, contact a veteran or experienced Wikipedian and ask them to read the article. Also you may find it incredibly helpful to view a page's [1] for rationale regrading why a certain portion was deleted. Quite frankly, this game of Cat and Mouse is getting rather redundant. --ShadowJester07 07:42, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Turd the bartender.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Turd the bartender.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. --Wisden17 20:15, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD Nomination: Turd, the Bartender

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem to me that Turd, the Bartender meets these criteria, I have started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Turd, the Bartender. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last five days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, an administrator will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article. --Wisden17 20:30, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Al Roker Jr.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Al Roker Jr.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:

[edit] RE:Image

Hmmm, did you add the licensing tags? Usually, you can always use {{promotional}} tag. However, when uploading the file, Wikipedia doesn't give you that option - and if you forget to add it, the "OrphanBot" will assume that it s stolen . So When your uploading the file, select a Random tag like "Sporting event". When the file is uploaded, edit the page, and change the tag to promotional. --ShadowJester07 02:16, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Try re-adding them now, I think I fixed the licensing tags on them. In the future, just add the following to ever image.
==Licensing==
 {{promotional}}

Just make sure you don't leave all those spaces by the left margin (I left them so it makes that box thingy. And always remember to remove the {{Somewebsite}} {{no license|month=August|day=9|year=2006}} tags, those just prompt Orphan Bot to tag it for deletion. --ShadowJester07 00:03, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nicole Oring

A tag has been placed on Nicole Oring, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable (see the guidelines for notability here). If you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, article #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 18:06, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

You wrote: <<Nicole Oring is a model and actress who deserves notoriety on Wikipedia since she has performed in fromnt of the camera.>> There are thousands of models and actresses in the world, including thousands with their own webpages. You haven't asserted why Ms. Oring is a notable model or actress. Also, you need third-party sources (not just Ms. Oring's website and a fan site) to verify her notability. Thanks, NawlinWiki 18:15, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:William Hainsworth 01.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:William Hainsworth 01.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.

Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 23:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
