[edit] Dog Dag Afternoon

Please do not add text that makes an already featured article sound less encyclopedic. "It is a sweltering hot afternoon" even in a plot section is not encyclopedic. Staxringold talkcontribs 13:16, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Jason Spevack

A tag has been placed on Jason Spevack requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, 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 indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

[edit] Jason Spevack

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Jason Spevack, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Jason Spevack

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Jason Spevack, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Jason Spevack.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Thumb 402 loogie2.gif

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Thumb 402 loogie2.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 10:21, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:American-idol-alexandrea-lushington.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:American-idol-alexandrea-lushington,jpg.jpg. The copy called Image:American-idol-alexandrea-lushington,jpg.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot (talk) 05:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] American Idol

You've uploaded pictures of contestants pretending to be their author while it's obviously not true. Don't do that again, or we'll have to block you. If you not sure how to upload images properly, read this or put {{helpme}} along with your question on this very page, but DON'T upload copyright violations, we don't tolerate this. MaxSem(Han shot first!) 08:51, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, they were uploaded as {{GFDL}}, not {{DFDL-self}}, so you didn't pretend that they were yours - my bad, but that changes nothing: you were wrong assuming that they were under the GFDL. MaxSem(Han shot first!) 09:09, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
And please stop removing pictures from the AI7 article. No "favoritism" is shown by showing some pictures and not others. That's a bit silly. --WoohookittyWoohoo! 16:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
Right and they were removed because they were all copyright violations. These pictures are completely legitimate. And screencaps are probably not going to work as they are considered non-free content, which we generally don't allow except in some cases. See Wikipedia:Non-free_images. --WoohookittyWoohoo! 16:11, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Article for deletion templates

I reverted your edit on Danny Noriega that removed the Article for deletion template. From the template: "Feel free to edit the article, but the article must not be blanked, and this notice must not be removed, until the discussion is closed." Aspects (talk) 18:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Johns

Ok cool so I've read your note and made the changes you suggested... we agree that the table title sucks (i also stripped out colspan and bgcolor cruft), and the per audition commentary i think is sufficiently interesting to warrant inclusion somewhere, but I'm not caring about it enough to spend another hour putting it all back in another format (cf melinda doolittle's page). Thanks for taking the time to write rather than re-revert! Mjf08 (talk) 00:19, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kristy Lee Cook

The problem lies in the fact that the page is making assumptions about things that are known only to a select few people, and are never publicized. We cannot say, in any way/shape/form, that she was in the Bottom 2, because there is absolutely no way to verify it. The page, and others, must represent the reality, and that which can be sourced...that she was in the bottom 3. We have no way of knowing which of the two who end up being safe had the higher vote count, ergo...saying she was in the Bottom 2, is original research. Just because it's "consistent" doesn't make it right, nor does it make it ok to violate one of the most important policies that Wikipedia is based upon, that of printed verifiable information. Look right below this edit box and it clearly says that "Encyclopedic contennt must be verifiable;" that she was in the "Bottom 2" is not verifiable. That she was in the "Bottom 3" is absolutely verifiable. That should be the starting point and ending point of the discussion. Until Idol comes out and publicizes the vote count order, any assumption we as editors make, will be original research. I have no problem with a subscript stating what happened on the show, something like "Safe last" or "Safe second," but I am not ok with saying she was in the "Bottom 2." 98.220.177.162 (talk) 02:46, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Formatting headings

Hi, I noticed some of your recent edits (on the Carly Smithson article) didn't follow Wikipedia guidelines on section headings. For example, we use "and" instead of "&", and only proper nouns are capitalized. For the full rules, please read Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Article_titles,_headings_and_sections. Thanks. --Fritz S. (Talk) 06:35, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Great, thanks. --Fritz S. (Talk) 06:54, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
