Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you did to The Radclyffe School. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. -- 24.12.226.74 01:44, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you.

Yes, this was blatant vandalism -- spamming the same unsourced paragraph (about a ossible relaunch of Pop Idol) across at least 21 articles, all of which it doesn't belong in. The articles are :

Deutschland sucht den SuperStar
American Idol
Australian Idol
Philippine Idol
Simon Fuller
Idol series
World Idol
Nouvelle Star
The X Factor (TV series)
Five (TV)
Sky One
ITV
Love Island
ITV1
Ant & Dec
Simon Cowell
List of UK television series
British television
19 Entertainment
Idol (Norway)
FremantleMedia

Please stop it! -- ArglebargleIV 04:39, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Response to your comment at User talk:ArglebargleIV

First, just because Pop Idol is the parent of many of the shows below doesn't mean that information about a Pop Idol relaunch belongs there -- it plainly doesn't. It isn't as relevant to those articles as you think it is. The Nouvelle Star article, for example, is about Nouvelle Star, not Pop Idol, and a Pop Idol relaunch doesn't affect Nouvelle Star in the slightest. It would be the same for the other derivative shows' articles. The Pop Idol article is the place for Pop Idol facts, not articles which are not about Pop Idol.

Information about a Pop Idol relaunch would go in the Pop Idol article. A mention could possibly be placed in the 19 Entertainment, Sky One, and the Idol series articles -- but if placed there, it needs to be as a shortened summary (with only the relevant details for that article), with a reference to the Pop Idol article for further details. Maybe Simon Fuller's and FremantleMedia's articles would get a reference as well. Definitely NOT X-Factor, Love Island, Ant & Dec -- because they are NOT involved. To clarify this -- the same long paragraph does not have to be repeated across 21+ articles, most of which aren't about Pop Idol.

Also, the long paragraph certainly doesn't go into the British Television article, since that is an overview article, not concerned with specifics of a particular show, and it definitely should not go into the List of UK television series article, since it is a simple listing of shows and should stay that way.

Secondly, all you have is an unsourced rumor. If it was in the Sun newspaper (as one edit sumary suggested) -- give a reference, give a link!!! Summarize it, and leave out the speculation! If all there is is speculation and rumor, leave it out of Wikipedia! Wikipedia is for verifiable facts, not speculation and rumors.

Thirdly, because you posted the same long unsourced paragraph across 21 articles (22 counting Canadian Idol, which someone reverted before I got to it) and the fact that you marked many of the edits as 'minor' (when they certainly weren't), I believe that my characterization of your mass of edits as spam is correct by definition. -- ArglebargleIV 19:35, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Carrie underwood.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Carrie underwood.jpg. 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.

[edit] Regarding your edits to Inacity Tower

I have removed your edits to Inacity Tower per WP:EL. I assume it was in good faith however, referencing a statement using a link to a forum is not considered reliable, especially when the user has participated in the discussions and I know you have. Please refrain from adding forum links to articles and using independent and reliable sources. Thank you and happy editing! - Erebus555 09:27, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Stevebrookstein.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Stevebrookstein.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. 00:13, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I see that you've made a note on OrphanBot's page asking about this. Please follow the link and see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, which has information about how to tag images you created (that is, you took the picture yourself) with a copyright tag. Best practice is to use {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-2.5,2.0,1.0}}, which licenses the image both under Wikipedia's text license, and under a similar CC license which is much easier to use for images. grendel|khan 21:02, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Brendarockingsmaller.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Brendarockingsmaller.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. — AnemoneProjectors (zomg!) 17:42, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SteAndKel

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article SteAndKel, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. - Fordan (talk) 11:42, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
