[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Zzkelly.PNG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Zzkelly.PNG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz S. (Talk) 14:05, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi. I'm sure you want to protect the page you created, but the page has no apparent notability (see the Wikipedia:Notability (music) guideline), and you aren't allowed to remove the speedy delete template. If you want to contest the article being flagged for speedy deletion, put up a "hangon" template like the instructions in the box say. --Jackhorkheimer 00:33, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Peggy Snow
Peggy Snow has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt the subject might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.
If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion for consensus.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:01 01 04EMMERDALE15.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:01 01 04EMMERDALE15.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.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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 fair use images 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. Jay32183 22:49, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Penelope Jones
A tag has been placed on Penelope Jones, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Penelope Jones is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Penelope Jones saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please feel free to use deletion review, but do not continue to repost the article if it is deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. -- Shadowlynk (Talk) 18:15, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Dot Cotton
It does say that, that piece of information has been there for well over a year, and has been verified by other people on the project long before you came along. It's the jounalist's view on what makes a gay icon, not mine. The link went dead on the free site, ive provided the same page, but it's now a pay per view site, so you dont get the full article. Regardless, you shouldnt just remove references when they go dead. It happens all the time, but it doesnt mean the information is no longer usable. This is why we have access dates listed in references. Here's what to do when links go dead Wikipedia:Citing sources#What to do when a reference link "goes dead" Gungadin 21:40, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, but you're wrong. It does mention Dot Cotton, Tiffany Mitchell too, and various other soap characters. How can you even comment when you haven't fully read the article? Of course one person's opinion isnt fact, and that's why the article Dot Cotton says she has been "labelled" as a gay icon. That she's been labelled as a gay icon is factual, because she has, in the article that's been referenced. Every single word in a newspaper article is about filling text space, so what's you point? This article happens to be solely about pink pin-ups and gay icons, so oddly enough, the journalist is filling text space with supposed gay icons, including Dot.Gungadin 22:18, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Well if I did, it would be perfectly acceptable to do so, because i'm not giving my opinion, i'm giving the opinion of a journalist. Dot clearly isnt your gay icon Raintheone, and I do sympathise as this is obviously an important issue for you, but maybe you should be taking this up with the Evening Standard instead? Perhaps you could start a petition to have Dot denounced as a gay icon or something? Would be a great help would that :)--Gungadin 22:50, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Leah Patterson-Baker
As explained in the deletion summary, the article was deleted because a community consensus had been reached regarding whether this (and other Home and Away bios) merited their own article. Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brad Armstrong (Home and Away) for the related discussion. With kind regards, nancy (talk) 09:54, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
- No, it is not set in stone forever. The situation is that if a recreation of the article is "substantially identical" to the one deleted as the result of the deletion discussion the the new article can be (and likely will) be speedily deleted again under the G4 criteria as "recreation of deleted material". I have reviewed the original deletion discussion and you are quite right to highlight sources/references as one of the key issues as the consensus was that the article(s) should be deleted because of "no verifiable sources showing real-world notability". So.... if the new article addresses these concerns there is still a possibility that it might get speedily deleted but if it was you would probably have grounds for taking it to deletion review. Kind regards, nancy (talk) 07:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Maddy Young
If you check the diffs in the article history between your edit and mine, you'll notice all the information you included is still there. I didn't remove it, just reworded it. The Manual of Style on fiction articles says plot summary should be written in present, not past tense, hence the change. We're all working towards the same end here - the improvement of articles on Wikipedia - so there's no need to throw around unfounded accusations of WP:OWN. Frickative (talk) 10:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- Sincere apologies for coming across as touchy and thank you very much for the compliment. I think I definitely took your message the wrong way, and that's entirely my own fault for trying to use the internet on zero sleep! Happy editing :) Frickative (talk) 21:28, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Home and Away
Hi. Of course, I agree that articles on long-term characters on the show should stay (e.g. [{Alf Stewart]], Sally Fletcher), because those characters clearly have real-world notability simply because they are such long-running characters. But I don't think recurring guest characters, or those who spend about 2 months on the show, have the requisite notability. - Mark 02:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Leah Patterson
Hey there, Ive found a source for Leah for you [1] It's a book called "Super Aussie Soaps: Behind the Scenes of Australia's Best Loved TV"
Page 263 talks about Leah Poulos arriving in Summer Bay with an army of Greek relatives. It says for the new millennium Summer Bay was finally evolving into a multi cultural community. Then there's more about her on page 265 about her falling pregnant and having a big fat Greek wedding. There's more on page 271 talking about her being pregnant and having braces on her teeth, handing over a surrogate baby etc. These kind of things can be quoted and used for commentary and sources, which is good if you want to recreate the page and stop it being deleted again. have a look through the google book search, all references of Leah should be highlighted :) Gungadin 00:28, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Before you move any characters off the minor and recurring characters page, please ensure they meet the notability guidelines at WP:FICTION. ~~ [Jam][talk] 11:34, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
