Hi, the recent edit you made to Tatamkulu Afrika has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

[edit] Your user page

Hi Audrey,

I just speedily deleted your userpage as an attack page based on the fact that it seems to exist only to disparage the subject. Please keep in mind that Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons applies everywhere, and that while you seem to be an otherwise good-faith contributor, this behavior is unacceptable. Please also note that this deletion was made after I was notified of it in this discussion on the administrators' noticeboard--you should feel free to contribute to the conversation there. Thank you. --jonny-mt 05:28, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I just noticed the message on your user page and thought I would stop by to provide a little bit of extra clarification. Basically, the Wikipedia policy on biographies of living persons encourages both editors and administrators to err on the side of caution at all times--that is, it's better to be wrong about removing or deleting potentially libelous content than it is to be wrong about leaving it up. In your case, although I considered that you might be the subject, the third-person narrative combined with the content created enough of a doubt in my mind that I thought it was better to delete it.

Naturally, you should feel free to be creative with your user page, but please note that there are certain limits. If you would like access to some of the formatting you had on your old user page to use in a new one, I'd be more than happy to provide it.

Thank you very much, and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. --jonny-mt 05:13, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Amanda Holden.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Amanda Holden.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:31, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
