[edit] Fairfield University
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Fairfield University. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! -- Merope 15:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Please do not replace Wikipedia pages or sections with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. -- Merope 15:40, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Response to your message
I am reversing your contributions because you keep deleting the entire section on Athletics in the Fairfield University article. (See: [1]). Removing content from articles without explanation is considered vandalism. -- Merope 15:53, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Are you serious? You had pics blocking text boxes and covering up other pics. I only removed one small picture and moved two so they would not block the text that you have been working so hard on writing. you need to take a look at formatting styles and possibly consider removing some pics. sometimes less is more Trey 03:54, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Meredith Wallace
Hi Stagophile, I wanted to alert you regarding the status of an article you created. A tag has been placed on Meredith Wallace, 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 Meredith Wallace is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Meredith Wallace. 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. I added a stub tag and category to the article, but this alone will not be sufficient to alleviate its deletion. Additional improvement will be needed. Accurizer 16:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Response to Merope
I am not deleting the Athletics section. If you had scrolled down, you would have seen that I was rearranged the section and put the Athletics section at the end.
[edit] Image:Fairfield Donnarumma.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Fairfield Donnarumma.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will 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. --– Quadell (talk) (random) 18:24, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Fairfield Seal Red.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Fairfield Seal Red.JPG. 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. – Quadell (talk) (random) 18:29, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
