[edit] Whats wrong with this edit ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carlos_Santana&diff=35713823&oldid=35713382 The link I added was to a personal fan site, containing just info & pictures, it is not commercial & does not charge anything. Why was it removed ? I have seen links to Amazon in other entries, thats surely commercial ! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gungho (talk • contribs) 20:15, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Are you the same person as IP 82.45.1.145? Hall Monitor 20:23, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
The same computer but used by several people, I made 2 edits to the Santana entry & then decided to register under the name "gungho" which I will use from now on. I see there have been a few edits under the "Chris Moyles" entry. These must have been done by my nephew earlier today. They are not funny & you can delete them. But, yes I posted the Santana entries as 82.45.1.145.
Yes, I asked because I was concerned about the rash of vandalism to The Chris Moyles Show today which included edits from your own IP address. With respect to the link you added to Carlos Santana, unofficial fansites are generally removed because they are not a reliable source of information, making them inappropriate for inclusion in an encyclopedia such as Wikipedia. If you have concerns regarding any other article, such as one which links to an Amazon website as you've suggested, please do not hesitate to bring it to my attention so that it may be dealt with accordingly.

OK, message received & understood. I'll speak to my nephew about it. Thanks for the assist. Over & Out :)


[edit] Image Tagging Image:AliceColtrane.jpg

Warning sign
This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:AliceColtrane.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 14:47, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Naming conventions, etc.

It's important to read and follow the conventions for naming articles, and for presenting them. I tidied a large number of articles that you created on Santan albums, but I've just seen that you've created more, making exactly the same mistakes that I was correcting. I'll tidy them too, but it would be very helpful if you do it correctly in the first place. The misuse of capitals is one frequent problem, and the addition of "(album)" (not "(Album)") to an article title should only be made if there's already an article with the plain title. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:38, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Welcome Album.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Welcome Album.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] Image:AliceColtrane.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AliceColtrane.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:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

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. —Chowbok 19:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
