[edit] License tagging for Image:Music emissions logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Music emissions logo.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 05:07, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD Nomination: Music Emissions

An editor has nominated the article Music Emissions for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Music Emissions. Add four tildes like this ~~~~ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Music Emissions during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. Jayden54Bot 15:24, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

The reason I voted delete on Music Emissions was due to the following policy in the Wikipedia policy on coverage of websites: The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself. This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper and magazine articles, books, television documentaries, and published reports by consumer watchdog organizations....The above is the central criterion for inclusion. Although a high number of hits on Alexa or Google can be an indicator of notability, it isn't enough on its own. However, if you can add further links to the article showing that your site is mentioned in third-party sources, e.g. news reports, reviews and so on, then I will change my vote, and the article will probably be kept. I hope this advice is helpful; bear in mind that I don't make Wikipedia policy, nor do I necessarily agree with it in all instances, but I still have to apply it. (By the way, my editor review isn't the correct place for discussing AfDs; you should have left the comment on my talkpage, as I would have noticed it and replied to you much more quickly.)

OK, what I'd advise you to do is mention this on the AfD and state that all these bands have used Music Emissions reviews. I don't know if other users will accept this as evidence of third-party coverage, but it's good enough for me. (By the way, other users will also take your comments more seriously if you sign your posts using four tildes like this: ~~~~. This makes your username and the current date and time appear after your comments - just a minor point of Wiki style. Obviously you shouldn't do this on articles, only talkpages.) Walton monarchist89 19:43, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Done.

I'm not sure what you mean by "Spam about the distinctly non-notable". Can you elaborate? Are you in agreement that the site is Non-notable?

Yes. The two categories are in no way contradictory. Oh, and that bands themselves use the reviews means bupkis. Just ask David Manning of The Ridgefield Press. --Calton | Talk 23:48, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:7222+No+Shouts+No+Calls.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:7222+No+Shouts+No+Calls.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 14:23, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
