[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Dream_logo.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Dream_logo.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 11:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DREAM.6

A tag has been placed on DREAM.6, 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.

[edit] Removal of speedy deletion tag

Hello, you may not be aware of this, but as is plainly shown on the speedy deletion tag I have placed on your recently created article, you are not to remove speedy deletion tags from your own articles, but should instead place {{hangon}} underneath the tag. Should you continue to deliberately remove speedy deletion tags, you may be blocked from editing. Good day, Mizu onna sango15/水女珊瑚15 02:17, 15 May 2008 (UTC).

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. Sancho 06:45, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] From the vault

Hi,

Thanks for creating the new article, From the Vault: Dragons.

I was looking at new pages, and saw it when the page was virtually blank. I was in the process of checking what it was, and then saw you'd added more info.

In future, please consider creating new articles in your own area. See Wikipedia:User_page#How_do_I_create_a_user_subpage.3F.

That way, you can create a valid page before making it 'live' - which will stop people like me potentially flagging the page for deletion, whilst you're working on it.

Hope this helps,

Welcome...

[edit] Spam in Jeff Monson vs. Mike Russow

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Jeff Monson vs. Mike Russow, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Jeff Monson vs. Mike Russow is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Jeff Monson vs. Mike Russow, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
