[edit] To Live Is To Die Day

  • Thank you for the email. I have updated the AfD discussion with a summary of what you wrote. It is generally best for an AfD to just run its course once it is started, and there is no obvious way to interrupt it to remove the article beforehand. It's not a huge deal that it takes a couple of extra days to remove it. I'm sorry you were hoaxed, and I hope this experience hasn't made you reluctant to contribute. Continue to edit and be bold. As long as you edit in good faith as you did here, people deciding that the information doesn't fit in the encyclopedia is pretty much the worst thing that can happen.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Agalloch The White-EP.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Agalloch The White-EP.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) 04:25, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Agalloch The White-EP.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Agalloch The White-EP.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. BetacommandBot (talk) 19:45, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
