[edit] Image tagging for Image:Whs.JPEG

Thanks for uploading Image:Whs.JPEG. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Tom Nicholson

A tag has been placed on Tom Nicholson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable (see the guidelines for notability here). If you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Darkspots 20:44, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Playstation 3 Bag

The article Playstation 3 Bag has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 18:23, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Along this line, the image Image:0066329310146 500X500.jpg does not have source information, which is required by WP:FUC. It is also improperly tagged; it is obviously not a logo. Adding to that, it's orphaned as its article was deleted. This image will be deleted in 48 hours if these issues are not resolved. Thanks. -- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 18:28, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] August 2007

Please do not add commercial material to Wikipedia, as you did to BMW Mark II Mini Clubman. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Thank you. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 21:39, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to MINI (BMW), you will be blocked from editing. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 21:43, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for recently uploaded images

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:GTA IV set at Leipzig Games Conference 2007.jpg, Image:MiniClubman1.jpg, Image:MiniClubman2.jpg, Image:MiniClubman3.jpg, Image:MiniClubman4.jpg, Image:MiniClubman5.jpg, and Image:MiniClubman6.jpg. I notice the image pages specify that the images are being used under fair use but there are no suitable explanations or rationales as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description pages and edit them 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. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 21:48, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:MiniClubman1.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:MiniClubman1.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 01:11, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] December 2007

A tag has been placed on Carl Klang requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. — Rudget _speak.work 19:26, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Your creation of Wikiman xxx to make an unconstructive edit to Labour Party (UK) is not acceptable conduct for a Wikipedia editor. Please refrain from edits that violate WP:NPOV and from making such edits from a a separate account — ERcheck (talk) 19:51, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Great Corby, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. ZimZalaBim ^talk 14:35, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Google. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Will ^(talk) 14:35, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you insert a spam link, as you did to Google, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from all of Wikipedia. Gwernol 14:38, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

You have recently recreated or reposted material at Michael Shorrock which previously was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not recreate this page without prior approval from an administrator or you may be blocked from editing. We ask that you respect what Wikipedia is not.

[edit] Rockstar PS3 Exclusive Project

A tag has been placed on Rockstar PS3 Exclusive Project, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ZimZalaBim ^talk 15:09, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Into Alecia

A tag has been placed on Into Alecia 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 band, 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 musical topics.
