[edit] New Pictures

Thanks for throwing on those new pictures at the Derek Webb and Sandra McCracken articles. They're nice, and I think they add to the articles. That being said... do you really think they're better for the main picture at the top? I think the ones that were there previously, being more close up (especially on the Sandra McCracken picture) were better for that spot on the article.

Is there a specific reason you decided to completely remove the others? -- Pepsi2786 (talk) 04:46, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

The picture from Durham is rough, and I'd be glad to see it removed to be replaced by yours, but I think the two you removed are better for the top slot. I'll rearrange it a bit... let me know what you think. -- Pepsi2786 (talk) 23:22, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Gorillaz demon days day of the dead.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Gorillaz demon days day of the dead.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) 10:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Calendar picture

Hello. I just felt the picture was giving undue prominence to an unsourced piece of original research (and one that seemed as likely to be a coincidence; there aren't many ways to show "the month of November" on a calendar). I left the text in to see if anybody wanted to provide a source. --McGeddon (talk) 07:50, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay, there was more detail there than I realised from the thumbnail. It's bad form to overemphasise original research, though - even with pinpoint parallels and screenshots, it's not up to us to decide that November was definitely inspired by Day rather than them both making a reference to a third, earlier calendar from some other source. If there are a lot of Gorillaz/Romero parallels, it'd be better to pull out an interview and source some actual quotes.
Feel free to add the picture back, anyway, if it looks like we can get there. --McGeddon (talk) 17:25, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
