[edit] Musician redirects

Hi Chillicane, I notice you are helping out by redirecting musicians without articles to the groups which they are a member of. This is a good idea, but I thought I'd let you know that it is best not to link to an article which just redirects back to the original article - it is best to have them as bold. For this reason I have removed the links in (eg. Hilltop Hoods and The Herd) and made them bold. -- Chuq 05:29, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Thats ok I'll go over the details:
The musician redirects themselves, they are fine, with the category & the redirect to the main group, thats no problem;
In the band article itself, usually the topic is bold; but it is also convention to put any other topics, which are covered in the article, in bold, so in this case the members of the group would be in bold;
In the band article still, it is best not to link to a page that just redirects back; so don't link to the band members. Exception (of the pages I have looked at so far) is Traksewt, because there is a "full" article, not just a redirect, it is ok to link to that article.
Note that it is still ok to link to the musician names from within *other* articles, just not from within the one that the musician names redirect into!
Hope this all makes sense! -- Chuq 05:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Drapht.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. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 16:17, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
