Some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Yorba Linda (author) may not be sufficiently well-known to merit articles of their own. The Wikipedia community welcomes newcomers, and encourages them to become Wikipedians. On Wikipedia, each user is entitled to a user page in which they can describe themselves, and this article's content may be incorporated into that page. However, to merit inclusion in the encyclopedia proper, a subject must be notable. We encourage you to write or improve articles on notable subjects. --Bill 19:03, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Rdd.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rdd.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. 20:10, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dropkick Kittie
A tag has been placed on Dropkick Kittie, 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 Dropkick Kittie is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Dropkick Kittie. 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. (aeropagitica) (talk) 21:43, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Do not remove other people's comments from Talk pages. That's a really good way of getting blocked from editing. User:Zoe|(talk) 23:05, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
- OK, not a problem. The article reads like a promotional piece, not an encyclopedia article. We strive for neutral point of view. Give straightforward facts and references for them. The article needs to be pruned of hyperbole and fan opinions. User:Zoe|(talk) 00:47, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
Have you read WP:Music for the notability criteria for bands? Indie-label bands need one charting album release and this band's album isn't due out until later in the year/next year. Has the band toured nationally or had a notable person as a member? If none of these criteria are fulfilled then I suggest that Myspace is a better location for this information, rather than an online encyclopedia. (aeropagitica) (talk) 21:46, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] QuestionQuestion
This article was a non-notable biography according to the criteria set out in WP:BIO. (aeropagitica) (talk) 21:41, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Blocked
Please note that I do not know what to copy exactly, but I hoped I did it correctly. This is exactly the message I got, and I followed the direction best to my abilities.
Ah, good. :) Feel free to drop another template if you wind up having any more problems. Happy editing! Luna Santin 01:17, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Usexport.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Usexport.png. 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) 14:06, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
