[edit] Gary Brolsma
You linked New Numa to the youtube video, but external links should be avoided in the text (except as references), so I put it in the External links section instead. Tyrenius 19:05, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Lpatwct-ku.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lpatwct-ku.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. BigrTex 18:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Aj-lroar.jpg
I have tagged Image:Aj-lroar.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. BigrTex 18:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Sh3 ost.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Sh3 ost.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:33, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wikimania in Atlanta!
Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!
P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 03:50, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Heather Morris (voice actor)
A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Heather Morris (voice actor), 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 explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest 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 endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. hbdragon88 02:31, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use disputed for Image:WhenthesungoesdownKC.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:WhenthesungoesdownKC.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 05:01, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Devil May Cry 4/Famitsu
Hey, thanks for updating the DMC4 page with that info from Famitsu. I would just like to ask a question and a favor about it. First, what month is that issue for? It needs to be specific because saying "latest" only applies from now until the next issue comes out. Secondly, do you have a reference to use besides scans hosted on a Flickr account? See WP:RS for more on this issue. Anyhow, thanks! --Boradis 18:10, 19 September 2007 (UTC) (Devil May Cry Task Force)
- Sorry, but I've had to remove it entirely since images hosted on Flickr are too susceptible to vandalism. But I'd love to have this tidbit if we can get a reliable cite for it! Thanks again. --Boradis 18:16, 19 September 2007 (UTC)(Devil May Cry Task Force)

- I've seen the same scan on a few forums & on LJ, but nothing more concrete than that. I'll keep my eye out for something more reliable. DTwirler 18:19, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks. If you can find an actual copy of the magazine (and can figure out at least the month of the issue) we could add it as a regular print reference. I think this is a huge bit of news for the game. --Boradis 18:33, 19 September 2007 (UTC) (Devil May Cry Task Force)

I have nominated Good Time (album), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Good Time (album).

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Oial.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Oial.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:35, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
