[edit] Archiving

That looks perfect. (Note that you don't want to archive too often, because you can get clogged up with too many archive files.) --Mel Etitis (Talk) 19:24, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your message

As both bands released albums and singles, I'd personally say that they're fit subjects for articles. You might have a look at Wikipedia:Notability (music), though. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:18, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding edits to Inside (Presence)

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Shaneymike! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \bangelfire\.com\/, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 13:36, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Singles articles?

Hi - Do you really think all four singles from Inside (Presence) are notable enough to warrant individual articles? You could have these redirect to the album, but having them as individual articles seems like overkill to me (if the album was commercially unsuccessful, I'd imagine the singles were as well, which I'd think would mean references on these would be difficult or impossible to find). If you agree with the redirect idea, please just do it. If not, I may nominate these for deletion. -- Rick Block (talk) 01:16, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

To make a page redirect to another, change the entire contents of the "from" page to:
#REDIRECT [[to page]]
(starting the #REDIRECT on the first line with no leading spaces or anything). For more on this, please see Wikipedia:Redirect. -- Rick Block (talk) 13:26, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Andrew_francis_full.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Andrew_francis_full.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 {{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 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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 11:45, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Possibly unfree Image:Boriscure.jpg

You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 15:31, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Allisee presence cov.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.

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.

[edit] Paptimus Scirocco

Whether this article will be kept or not is no longer in my hands. Since it has been submitted for deletion, it is the decision of the community now. Captain panda 21:21, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

The character's supposed importance in the series or any in-universe references you add are irrelevant so long as it cannot pass WP:FICT. At most, he should be part of a list of characters related to the series, as that is suitable treatment for a minor character. Sephiroth BCR (Converse) 00:27, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ted cole full.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Ted cole full.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use.

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.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Brian drummond full.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Brian drummond full.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. Rossrs (talk) 13:02, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alice in Chains album no 4

The reason why it was deleted is because there was to much speculative and/or unconfirmed info which means it did not passed WP:CRYSTAL. It did not have a title (nor was there one in consideration), and no release date at all. No information on the songs. It had info that looked to be more suitable in the band's article. If more confirmed information is provided and if it passes WP:CRYSTAL, it can be re-created/re-instated. Maybe new information was revealed since the deletion though. See : Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alice in Chains' fourth studio album for the discussion. --JForget 23:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
