[edit] Creation of new articles

I noticed your creation of a few new articles and thought I'd give you some pointers. I recommend you read over the pointers, and then improve the articles you have created already, rather than create more.

  1. There is a criterion that allows an article to be immediately deleted if it is very short or provides little or no context. So try to create more substantial entries
  2. Wikipedia:Stub has some information on what should be included in new articles
  3. Wikipedia:Notability has some ideas on what should have an article and what should not.

Consider adding some more facts to the articles, Categories, a stub notice etc. You can view your contributions at Special:Contributions/Abcfan.--Commander Keane 19:09, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Diane Sawyer.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Diane Sawyer.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] Laura Diaz (TV anchor)

Could you try to be a little more specific when referring to television stations? "CBS 2" can refer to any number of stations all over the country, including here in Chicago. Fan-1967 00:08, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Rbn co.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Rbn co.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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.

A tag has been placed on Forrester Orginals, 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, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. thadius856talk|airports|neutrality 05:52, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
