I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian - I definitely do. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not.

[edit] Image:Thaonguyenandthegetdownstaydown_infrontofbus.jpg listed for deletion

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Thaonguyenandthegetdownstaydown_infrontofbus.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it, but use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. -- AuburnPilottalk 08:38, 3 December 2006 (UTC) 08:38, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:Thaonguyenandthegetdownstaydown.jpg

An image that you uploaded, Image:Thaonguyenandthegetdownstaydown.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 21:28, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:The softies band members blackandwhite.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:The softies band members blackandwhite.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 02:26, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:HeaderV2_04.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:HeaderV2_04.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}} 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 {{non-free fair use in|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 02:28, 6 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 02:28, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

That source is still not sufficient. How did the image get from that agency to here? Website? You, as an employee took it from somewhere at work and uploaded it here? I have restored the no source tag. MECU≈talk 14:00, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AFD Comments

Hello. I think that some of your AFD comments got messed up and now appear in the wrong place. (See: here and here.) Your comments mention youtube, but these AFDs are about student groups. I don't want to delete or mess with anyone's comments, so I'll leave that up to you or an admin. Thanks!--RedShiftPA (talk) 00:34, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

OK, so it looks like the AFD for Mela y sus hermanas didn't work and your comments got placed in odd places. I'll see what I can do. --RedShiftPA (talk) 00:48, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Ok, I fixed it there. I'll go ahead and nominate the Mela y sus hermanas for deletion for you (I've done a few of them recently). Here's a good place to get info on the AFD process: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion--RedShiftPA (talk) 00:52, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Thao Nguyen

I have no objection to Thao Nguyen herself in the category of female rock singers, but not her band. Even if it exists purely as creative vehicle for herself, the fact of the matter is that her name is not "Thao with the Get Down Stay Down", it is Thao Nguyen. If you want to create two seperate articles, one Thao Nguyen and one for her band, by all means go ahead, but is inappropriate to put a group of people into a category for individual people. It would be as though I put the band Nirvana (band) into the categories of 1967 births and 1994 deaths on the basis that those were the years of Kurt Cobain's birth and death, and because Nirvana was a creative vehicle for Cobain. It simply doesn't make sense to browse a category meant for individual people and to find a band there. Also, I am concerned that your interviews with Ms. Nguyen might be considered original research. Please see Wikipedia:No original research for details on what is considered good research for an article and what isn't. Thank you. Asarelah (talk) 18:00, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Crazy Like a Fox (TV series)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Crazy Like a Fox (TV series), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Crazy Like a Fox. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:16, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:SAMHSA.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:SAMHSA.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 16:08, 24 April 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Notability of Community Service Programs, Incorporated

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Community Service Programs, Incorporated, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Community Service Programs, Incorporated 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 an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Community Service Programs, Incorporated, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
