[edit] Image Tagging Image:Steve cannane.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Steve cannane.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read 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, please check 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. Thank you. BRossow 02:12, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging for Image:Dallas_wideweb_430x234.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dallas_wideweb_430x234.jpg. 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.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] links included in Riverstone article

I suggest that rather than adding a link to the school website you could insert some information about the school and possibly provide the website as a primary source? Although secondary sources discussing the school would be preferred.Garrie 05:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Veiled threats toward another editor are not allowed

"If you do not want your work ruthlessly edited by others, do not write articles for Wikipedia." I believe you will find that sentence, or variations on it, in numerous places here. I suggest you take it to heart. Your veiled threats about "tampering" in the first version of the message you left on my talk page — the one you might have thought I didn't see because you replaced it shortly thereafter, apparently not knowing of Wikipedia's built-in ability to catalog all messages and changes — are laughable at best and a violation of Wikipedia's policy against attacks on other editors at worst. Do not make such remarks to any other editor, period, or action will be taken — namely, your articles and other contributions will face deletion and/or you will be blocked from editing.

I applied the notability tag to the Kellyville Anglican Church because I believe that the church, as presented in the article thus far, does not meet standards for notability — namely, it does not say what about this church sets itself apart from other churches in the area. There are no third-party references from reliable sources such as newspaper articles about the church and the like. The article seems to be written similarly to a news release promoting the church. If you are a member of or somehow associated with Kellyville Anglican, then you may also be running afoul of Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines. (That's precisely why I do not edit the article about my own church.) Bear in mind that the notice I put on your article is the least restrictive action I could take. The article was close to qualifying for deletion, but I thought that was way too harsh, and that there is a good chance that the article could be improved enough to meet WP policies. Ultimately, you are not the final judge of the article's notability. That duty falls to all of the other editors here, many of whom patrol Wikipedia for new articles (such as myself) and recent changes. If notability is not proved, the article may ultimately be subjected to an article for deletion procedure. I hope you can provide additional material to bolster the article's case, and make all that totally unnecessary. Realkyhick 02:12, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

And don't delete messages from other editors, unless they are obvious vandalism, which this isn't. Realkyhick 02:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Christians in the Media

Christians in the Media, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Christians in the Media satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christians in the Media and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Christians in the Media during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Pascal.Tesson 18:31, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
