[edit] License tagging for Image:Otherlisasimpson.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Otherlisasimpson.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. 16:07, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Igotarock.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Igotarock.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.
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.

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Streettracelogo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Streettracelogo.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] Transformers
I don't dispute the existence of the teaser trailer, and I'm not trying to be heavy-handed in editing. Look at the paragraph about the trailer — "It has been confirmed that the images and storyline from this teaser trailer will not be in the movie." Furthermore, I don't watch the article for Halo 3, but looking at it now, the teaser trailer images suit the content. However, look at the image that you added. There is really no detail whatsoever shown, whereas the Halo 3 screenshots draw from aspects of the storyline. This is an article about the film itself, and while the teaser trailer helped promote the film, the lack of actual relation to the film itself doesn't really need images from the teaser trailer to be shown. If you still feel that the image should be added, please start a discussion on the talk page for Transformers. I'll present my argument there as well, and we'll see how other editors feel about using the image. --Erik (talk/contrib) @ 17:55, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Mourningportrait.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mourningportrait.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 18:36, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Knicks-Nuggets brawl
Hi, and thank you for your contributions. As you can see that article had been something of a baby of mine and I'm glad it's going so well now. Just a word of advice as a wikipedian, that you can use the "preview" button before saving to check things like if your wikilinks work or how formatting looks. Saving every few minutes is a good if you're writing a paper for school and your computer might crash any minute, but when you save dozens and dozens of edits in a short session it makes the page history a little difficult to deal with. This is not meant to be a critique, just some advice to make it easier to work with other editors, as it's easiest to check the "page diff" option to see new changes than to reread the entire article.

[edit] Your recent edits regarding musicology
Would you please explain how could Space music be regarded as a so called "subgenre" of the so called "genre" of Ambient music, given that a lot of remarkable Space music has been released one decade before Mr Eno released some albums entitled Ambient 1-2-3-4 ? Is it an attempt to retrospectively rewrite the events under a different perspective?Dr. Who 17:15, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- No, it's a definition - Space Music *is* ambient music. Period. JAF1970 17:46, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Can you please provide an indipendent (that is not a popular music magazine) reliable source? No I guess. Ambient music is a "genre" only for the pockets of the music industry. It's just a non-sense defition for musicology. It's just background music. Space music is another story. Also please read relevant talk pages.--Dr. Who 17:53, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- How about the article space music? It's been there for years - you're welcome to delete the ENTIRE ARTICLE, since NOTHING in that entry differs from what is stated there. (rolling eyes) JAF1970 17:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- It has been recentl edited by some guy that harrassed me a few times, and I'm tired of edit wars.
I hope that he will get definitely banned by the whole community.Cheers.Dr. Who 18:00, 16 February 2007 (UTC)- Do you need a couple thousand references that state space music is ambient music? Or is your entire issue with Brian Eno being included with Space Music? Please, I'm not into Kirk-vs-Picard arguments. I'm only into facts. JAF1970 18:01, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- Only offline references are reliable, please do not send me Google stuff. They are two different types of musical forms (not genres, ok?) that many modern artists involved with modern instrumental music have covered and explored several times (I just hope you are not Gene Poole ;) ) Dr. Who 18:08, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
- Never heard of Hearts of Space, huh? How about this? Space music as a subgenre.
- It has been recentl edited by some guy that harrassed me a few times, and I'm tired of edit wars.
Space Music This sub-genre of electronic rock doesn't see that much action, but fans of space music usually can't get enough of it. Space music is hard to describe. It tends to be repetitive and lengthy, built in gradually multiplying layers, very electronic yet not entirely 'thick' or inorganic. Once you hear a few examples, you'll figure it out. Klaus Schulze, who was briefly in Tangerine Dream before they were using synthesizers, is the most famous space musician. His albums "X", Timewind, and Mirage are good starting points for the uninitiated, as well as the absolutely amazing _Sonic Seasonings_ by Walter Carlos. More accessible to ambient house fans is the rare and recently-bootlegged album called Space, a pseudonym for Jimi Cauty of the KLF.
Argument over.JAF1970 18:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
That link you provides is obviously a good example of an hacker in action. None in Europe takes that stuff seriously. I asked you reputable offline sources, such as an Oxford Dictionary, just to begin with. Yes argument over.Dr. Who 00:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
- That's nice. But we're here in America, where it IS considered ambient music as well as New Age. JAF1970 00:16, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia is an international site. This is Wikipedia in English, not aimed only for Americans, Brits and a few others. And don't forget that words are words, and terms means concepts and ideas.Dr. Who 00:36, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
-
- Um, you've got it backwards. You're the one who is claiming that it's English only, by stating "In England..." You're also vandalizing pages with no citations or references. Furthermore, I suppose you'll say Hearts of Space was edited by a hacker, too? JAF1970 00:43, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
I am trying to mediate between previous versions. I told you in Europe", not England. PLease recognize that my version is the best available at the moment. Please admit that you are watching facts with a "listener's" point of view, instead I am trying to report the facts that users like you are telling me adding some more enciclopedic tone. Why do not admit that my version is the best one at the moment? I am not offensive, I tried tosmileto you, but you refuse to see that. There are many inconsistencies in everything you are saying. Please, do not start an edit war against me, pleas revert again that article, read it carefully, and let's try to edit it together, ok? Cheers.Dr. Who 00:56, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pinball FX
Pinball FX was previously deleted after Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pinball FX, partly on the grounds that it hadn't been released. Is there any evidence that it has since been released? You can reply here. Thanks.--Kchase T 16:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's an upcoming XBLA title! JAF1970 16:36, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- It was deleted for the reasons listed in the linked discussion: no indication of release, not verifiable, not notable. The current version doesn't read like an advert, I'd say. When is it going to be released?--Kchase T 16:42, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- Xbox_Live_Arcade#Upcoming_games <- the confirmation links are here. I'll put the links in the actual Pinball FX article if that's needed. Annoncement. And none of the XBLA titles have set release dates. That's not how Microsoft works.JAF1970 17:37, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- IGN says 2007 JAF1970 17:46, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- The last link did it for me. The reason I've been asking you about this is that recreations of previously deleted content may be speedy-deleted under WP:CSD#G4. I don't think you knew you were recreating a deleted page, but now you do. In any case, the fact that there's now a release date is enough for me not to want to tag it for speedy deletion. Since it's a future product, things may change as we get closer to the release. Thanks for your help.--Kchase T 20:55, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MLB 2k7 Cover
Haha, insecurity? I'm not the one getting so angry about a simple vandal. I think the more likely scenario is that you're an insecure Yankees fan who can't take a joke. Stukov 02:00, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's not insecurity on my part. It's called "not disseminating wrong information". And you're using Wikipedia to tell jokes? Is that your main reason for editing here? No wonder you have a mile long list of vandalism complaints. JAF1970 08:06, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Sporephases.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sporephases.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:30, 26 February 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 17:30, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
