[edit] Chemung Speedrome

  • Thanks for starting the 'Drome article and getting some useful information into it. I cleaned it up a little, but it's a great start. What we need most next are reliable sources where the track was featured in edited/factchecked publications like STOCK CAR RACING, or in mainstream books not from vanity publishers. I used Bones Bourcier's book on Richie Evans to get citations into Richie's article. I'll look for Chemung stuff in that book to cite. I no longer have access to SCR from the 60s-70s-80s nor to weekly trade papers like Nat'l Speed Sport News or Gater. Barno 13:25, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • I checked, and there are only a couple of passing references to Chemung in the Evans book, none worth citing. I don't think it's notable by itself that Richie won a certain number of NASCAR and NEARA modified features there (which is listed in that book), unless we can find mainstream press coverage of a big special event.

[edit] Upstate NY racetrack articles

  • Hi. Are you Brock Moore who posts frequently on RaceNY? Thanks for the note on NY tracks. I wrote the Shangri-La article and little bits of Chemung. I haven't done much (if any) about Perry, Spencer, and Oswego yet. I see the Shangri-La logo you added today has the "fair use" tag with no detailed rationale. See Help:Image page#Fair use rationale and Wikipedia:Logos for what we're supposed to try to do for that. One of the core ideas of Wikipedia is to have all the content be shared and sharable, not violating copyrights of anyone who doesn't agree to share the images (or copyrighted text). Thanks for getting pics, and let's make sure we use them appropriately. An overhead photo of the track would be more encyclopedic than the latter-day logo. Maybe Mike Marrer ("35mmracer" on RaceNY) might be willing to release such a photo under a free or Creative Commons license for Wikipedia. Barno 02:05, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Also, since racers are doing slow off-season prep instead of thrashing in-season repair, some might have more time at their computers. Can you post a recruiting message for WP on RaceNY? I'm not registered there. In particular I want to find someone with a collection of the old STOCK CAR RACING, as I noted on the WikiProject NASCAR talk page. We could improve a lot of articles with help like that. Barno 02:05, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Tnahardcorewar06.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Tnahardcorewar06.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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.

[edit] Your edit to List of WWE pay-per-view events

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are certain this information is correct, please add a reliable reference to verify the information. Thank you. TJ Spyke 01:16, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I will give you the benefit of the doubt for not knowing, but for PPV info like this the only reliable source is WWE. Rajah is reporting a rumor, and we don't list rumors. TJ Spyke 01:36, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Judgment Day poster

Hi there, you have recently uploaded a Judgment Day poster, and say it's from WWE.com. Can you please provide the link for the poster, otherwise it would fall under the Speedy Deletion category. Davnel03 10:47, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:070416 shooting hmed 8a h2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:070416 shooting hmed 8a h2.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation 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. Funpika 17:41, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] an upstate-NY holiday today

[edit] Copyright violation in Image:Elm first arena.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Elm first arena.jpg, by Fuzzy510 (talk ยท contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Elm first arena.jpg is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Elm first arena.jpg, 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. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:24, 15 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Nhmslogo.GIF

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Nhmslogo.GIF. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Wvmplogo1.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Wvmplogo1.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
