[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Flava logo.png
Thank you for uploading Image:Flava logo.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 16:14, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject British TV channels
I'm surprised you haven't added your name to the members list, what with all the Sky EPG stuff you do?. Malpass93 (talk) 20:20, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. —PNG crusade bot (feedback) 21:29, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Shrektheogre.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Shrektheogre.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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rettetast (talk) 13:33, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Nickjr2logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Nickjr2logo.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. NotifyBot (talk) 12:13, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Allied Carpets
A tag has been placed on Allied Carpets, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the 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 would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. LegoTech·(t)·(c) 15:59, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] A couple notes
I blocked following your AIV report, but largely based on what appears to be a disruptive pattern of editing. In the future, complex cases--such as long-term sourcing issues and such--should probably be reported at WP:ANI.
Also, the last few days you've made a series of reversion with "SOURCE OR DIE!" in the edit summary. Please discontinue this; there are more appropriate ways to request proper sourcing. — Scientizzle 16:25, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- You've also warned some users with "SOURCE OR DIE!" in the edit summary and header. Although at least one may be well-deserved, as I see little evidence of any non-vandal edits, it's really not polite. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 15:04, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] June 2008
Please do not attack other editors, which you did here: Channel 289. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Calling any editor a "fool" is an unacceptable attack. —C.Fred (talk) 15:25, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Channel 289. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Restoring a {{db}} is hardly ever allowed, not to mention 3 times. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 15:33, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
- Re the Channel 289 article: Simply missing sources is not grounds for an article being speedily deleted. However, why I did delete the article was when it appeared to be a creation of GMTV Chart Show (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) under a new user name. At that point, it qualified under criterion G3, blatant vandalism. —C.Fred (talk) 18:17, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
