Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:ColinHealy.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

[edit] CorkCityFC

Gav. Hi. I notice that you changed the lead section of the CCFC article citing WP convention. It is not WP convention to have a one-line intro. Per Wikipedia:Lead section:

"The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, establishing context, explaining why the subject is interesting or notable, and briefly describing its notable controversies, if there are any. It should be between one and four paragraphs long, should be carefully sourced as appropriate, and should be written in a clear and accessible style so that the reader is encouraged to read the rest of the article."

I have reverted your change. Cheers. Guliolopez 17:56, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

→ Ok, I pretty much havent read guidelines, just observed other articles :) I think the content is more relevant than trivia such as the current manager or chairman, so i've used the same text, a little slimlined, as the introduction. --GavinZac 10:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Just to note that some of the linked names to the Cobh players are in fact links to quite different people. (e.g James McCarthy comes up as a 65 year old US Bishop, Ken Coleman as a deceased US broadcaster, Kevin Murray as an Aussie footballer or IRA man (take your pick), John Kearney as a sculptor, Sean Daly as a US rapper and Michael O'Shea as a Canadian (american football) footballer). If you are creating links to people you need to check that a person of the same name doesn't already have an entry. If they do you need to create a disambiguate page such as [[Joe Bloggs (Irish footballer)]]. Coolavokig 20:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Arkagalogo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Arkagalogo.gif. 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. BJBot (talk) 00:57, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
