[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/North Carolina Tigers

Hello Rulesfan. The result of the deletion debate was that the Tigers are not notable enough of their own right to warrant and article, so the relevant info should be placed in the United States Australian Football League. Thanks, Blnguyen | rant-line 04:37, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject AFL Hi mate, if you're a fan of Aussie rules, I suggest you take a look at WikiProject AFL (join by adding your name to the list of participants) and the Australian rules football portal. Also take a look at Category:VFL/AFL players and feel free to drop me a line with any questions, or on the WP:AFL discussion page. Cheers!

[edit] License tagging for Image:Ben holland.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ben holland.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Wikify AFL

I saw you made that template. Its a nice idea but we already have no end of cleanup templates - one more specialist one isnt goign to help really. Us guys at WP:WWF feel that one wikify template is the limit for us. Sorry. The template was redirected to {{wikify}} so it will work in the same way as that tag. Cheers, and keep up the good work! --Errant Tmorton166(Talk)(Review me) 09:31, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Nice work on adding information, expanding articles and most importantly, adding images of many Australian rules footballers. Good work mate, Rogerthat Talk 11:51, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] O'Dwyer quote

To delete correct and fully referenced information from an article is very bad form. Furthermore, you took the O'Dwyer quote from Australian rules football, without pointing it out in either the edit summary or on the talk page. That is sneaky and very bad manners. Especially as you knew my reasons for putting it there -- we had just discussed it at Talk:Gaelic football and you did not object. You may not agree with O'Dwyer's point of view but you can't deny that it is a POV that is held by many people in Australia and Ireland. Grant65 | Talk 12:35, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks mate for your 2 cents, but I think you should write about things that you actually know something about. --Rulesfan 02:34, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spam

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. // Pilotguy (Cleared to land) 03:54, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sunday Football League

a couple of issues with this article...

  1. could you move it to a less generic name - I am sure there are Sunday Football Leagues worldwide which probably have more participaton than this minor amateur league in WA
  2. could you please assert some notability to the subject of the article. That it exists is pretty poor
  3. could you please attribute your contributions. unattributed content may be removed by any editor.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Leo barry mark.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Leo barry mark.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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. JPD (talk) 13:25, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Rulesfan. I am a bit confused by your questions, as your statement regarding what I have done is a bit misleading. It is true that I did not go searching for all the DVD covers that have been used in this way, but simply dealt with the ones which I came across. If DVD covers are being used in similar situations, they should be dealt with similarly, whether anyone has objected so far or not.
I did not delete any images. I tagged them as not having a fair use rationale, because they did not, and still do not have one. The current interpretation of policy is that each image must have on the image page a rationale for its use in each of the article it is used in, separate from the tag claiming that use of the image may consitute fair use for certain purposes. Unless a rationale is added within 7 days, the image will be deleted.
I also removed the images from articles, as their use does not comply with the non-free content guidelines. Inappropriate non-free content in articles should always be removed immediately - there is no tagging process. It is not even clear that use of the DVD cover is legally fair use, as it is being used to illustrate Leo Barry's mark, not the DVD itself. In any case, it definitely does not meet the 10 criterion for non-free content accordign to Wikipedia policy. I hope this makes the policy clearer. JPD (talk) 09:53, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of AJAX Football Club

A tag has been placed on AJAX Football Club, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears 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.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 61.45.36.159 07:39, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Royce hart.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. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:22, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Brad Moran

Hi RulesFan,

I'd like to know why the contribution to this page was deleted. The information came directly from a report in the Herald Sun yesterday. Can it please be restored.

Whoever you are, I did no such thing ! --Rulesfan 08:18, 9 July 2007 (UTC)


Image:1.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:1.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

orphan with a checkered history; salt, too.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Brad_miller.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Brad_miller.jpg. 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 01:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 01:22, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I created the image. It is really annoying that someone replaced my image with a copyrighted image and reset all of the copyright tags on my image. Now you want to delete it ! So much for bothering to take the photo and release my work to the public .... --Rulesfan 01:30, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ricky Petterd

I came accross your article Ricky Petterd and noticed that most catsort and external links refer to a "Max Hudghton". I'm assuming these are two different people. So you can maybe correct these mistakes. Or if it's the same person you should add something explaining to the article. Greetings Bisco 18:34, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Bachar_houli.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bachar_houli.jpg. 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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.
