[edit] Thanks for the response

Thanks for the welcome. Actually I have been an anonymous/non-logged-in contributor to the Wikipedia for a number of years, but I finally decided to become a full-fledged Wikipedian at last.

You will be hearing a lot from me in the next few months, esp. I go around and clean up some articles within my field of expertise (Africa -- I've been in Cameroun & Nigeria for nearly a decade now).

Thanks again! Jalabi99 15:28, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

Image:WikiThanks.png Thanks for your warm words. I look forward to seeing you in the future. D. J. Bracey (talk) 16:11, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:MichelleMonaghanWelcome.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:MichelleMonaghanWelcome.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 01:47, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for finding that one for me. I thought I had added the fair use tag, but apparently I didn't. Jalabi99 15:56, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

It also needs a source. Lupo 11:09, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images need sources

Please provide sources for all images you've uploaded. Note that "fair use" claims such as on Image:MilenaVelba.jpg can be made only if a source is given, and furthermore must have a detailed rationale addressing the four points of fair use. Thank you. Lupo 11:25, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

OK. I will try and track down the source that picture. Thanks for the tip. Jalabi99 13:59, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Original research

Wow. Please read Wikipedia:No original research. I admit to a minimal, but (IMO) necessary, bending of WP:V, WP:NOR, and WP:RS in order to determine the fact of Ms. Devi's death. That does not mean that we should just flout those polices altogether by writing an original account of her death. It is well-researched, but original research is inappropriate for Wikipedia. Please post it in some other website. I am going to revert your contribution, and mention that there has been confusion over her death. This is nothing personal and I hope you appreciate that it is simply a matter of how this encyclopedia is put together. - Will Beback 08:35, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Wow, too. In this particular case, I tend to disagree with your assessment. If I get you straight, that means that I would have to put up the information that I have rather painstakingly synthesized on another website and then quote/reference myself? I'd do that, but it would be a little hard for me to find a site willing to put up with that...unless you are saying that I should start a blog or something...which would then join the 3.5 billion other blogs that no one but their authors read :)
I tell you what: instead of reverting my text, which essentially just wiped it away forever, could you at least place it here on my talk page, so, if nothing else, I can admire my own handiwork? (and if it is considered inappropriate to repost this section from my own talk page here on your talk page as well, I apologize, but I don't have an idea if you were watching my talk page or not...so when you reply on my talk page, you can always delete this section from yours) -- Jalabi99 22:11, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
Here you go: user:Jalabi99/Angela Devi. Cheers, -Will Beback 22:18, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
stands back to admire his handiwork
Thanks, mate! :) -- Jalabi99 22:25, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Don't know who added this to the front page of my talk page, so I moved it here....

 Ummm That is a good thought. Maybe she know longer wants to
 be known as Angela Devi and A.D. is dead maybe not.Hanging
 herself just doesn't fit the bill for me. By the foxes own
 "Payton" is her best friend. I truly have to let this go
 for now,because this is turning into an "hey Elvis is not
 dead he still alive just chillin somewere"!That's is the
 same situation with Angela-same as my boy Tupac.

[edit] Shar (model) proposed for deletion

An article that you have been involved in editing, Shar (model), has been proposed for deletion. Please look there to see why this is, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. AmiDaniel (Talk) 06:21, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
In the process of fleshing out the article, so I shall delete the tag. Thanks. -- Jalabi99 06:23, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image Tagging for Image:BustyHeartBoobcrush.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:BustyHeartBoobcrush.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] The golden age of hip hop for deletion?

I see that The golden age of hip hop is up for deletion. I wonder what you think of this. P.O.N.Y. 17:37, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I've voted to keep the article, but it needs some editing. -- Jalabi99 14:21, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Sukanya Krishnan.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Sukanya Krishnan.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. feydey 13:37, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I did that once I uploaded the image file. -- Jalabi99 00:01, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Vida

I'm actually in agreement with you there. Somewhat bland, in my opinion. --TJive 15:51, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Multiracial people

When adding people to this list, please add a source that describes them as "multiracial" or "biracial". I'm working on fixing up and fully sourcing that list that way, and then getting the tag off. Cheers Mad Jack 02:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

I think that the source should better be shown/referenced in the article for the person concerned, rather than at the end of the "List of multiracial people" list. This is so that the list page doesn't grow out of control. As it is, what with your insistence on adding the reference source at the bottom, the list page size has practically doubled. This is not exactly adding to the readability of the list. -- Jalabi99 02:58, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm, well I'm not going to insist on this method of sourcing - so if you want to change it back - go ahead. Mad Jack 02:59, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Okidokey! :) Thanks for your blessing. -- Jalabi99 03:00, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Lol - you're welcome Mad Jack 03:02, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:TIME India Inc.jpg)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:TIME India Inc.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Yamla 15:00, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music

Whats up? Hi, I'm trying to gather some more interest and support for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music. Please check out the topics and lets get our WikiProject to function better. Recently, I've taken an interest in the Wikipedia:WikiProject hip hop and I consider that WikiProject to be better developed. I am now writing to usernames on the hiphopWP who might be interested in helping with the punkmusicWP. Hopefully we can all work together to improve articles relating to punk as has been done well with hip hop. Finally, I am trying to gather support and opinions concerning the punk house article and specifically the Theta Beta Potata article which is currently in AfD (x2) at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Theta Beta Potata (second nomination). Please check it out and voice your opinion. Xsxex 09:09, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Peanuts copyright violation

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Peanuts article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I irrevocably release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, for use on Wikipedia and elsewhere."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Specifically, the information you added in this edit is a direct copy from the Fantagraphics press release [1]. Steve block Talk 22:15, 30 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image:MegalynEchikunwoke.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:MegalynEchikunwoke.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Yamla 20:46, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AMA request

Hello! I saw the request that you had placed for an advocate here. If you still need help, I would certainly be willing to do so. If you do still need some assistance, you can contact me on my talk page or by email if you would prefer to communicate privately. If you no longer require assistance, please let me know as well, and I'll close out the case. Thanks! Seraphimblade Talk to me 10:34, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Oops, I didn't notice that Seraphimblade posted this already. In any case, I posted some discussion on the page as well as taking on the case (for now at least). I will gladly defer the case to Seraphimblade if you would prefer. In any case, please read the notes here: Wikipedia:Association of Members' Advocates/Requests/March 2007/Jalabi99. Thanks! -Cquan 19:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Cquan or Seraphimblade, I am willing to take help from either or both of you, please :) -- Jalabi99 19:31, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm very willing to work alongside Cquan, no use in anyone shoving each other! :) As to doing DRV, I'd focus on the early closure of the AFD, and perhaps the expression of opinion in the closing statement. Seraphimblade Talk to me 01:51, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Alright, let's get started here then...first, which outcome do you want? Just a personal copy for your own use, or for the content to be restored here? Seraphimblade Talk to me 09:40, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Here is the text of the deleted article. This is strictly for personal use only and should not be used to recreate the article. --kingboyk 14:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I've removed it - it's served its purpose, and should have been on a sub-page any way. Martinp23 23:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:630587123X.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:630587123X.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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. ShakespeareFan00 14:45, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Susie Sorrento

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Susie Sorrento, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Susie Sorrento seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Susie Sorrento, 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.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:EmmanuelaPintus01.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:EmmanuelaPintus01.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Diagonal P. (talk) 13:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:WaymanTisdaleDecisions.jpg)

⚠

Thanks for uploading Image:WaymanTisdaleDecisions.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.

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Hot 98.3 FM logo.jpg. 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. Polly (Parrot) 21:28, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Hot 98.3 FM logo.gif

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Hot 98.3 FM logo.gif. 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, 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, 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:Non-free content, 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 21:31, 23 May 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 21:31, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
