[edit] Citing Sources

Please appreciate, flagging your articles is not a personal attack in anyway on you. I realize that you're contributing to wikipedia, but we need to make sure that articles are in compliance with the 3 pillars of wikipedia. My concern with your articles is that they lack Verifiability with cited sources. Alan.ca 08:31, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

What exactly needs to be cited? I didnt write the text for the main article The Tear Garden, I am planning on revising it. There is no reason to delete it. For the albums themselves, i'm taking the info straight from the booklets or it is things that are easily verifiable and are not debated.

Can you tell me what criteria of wp:band this group meets? Further, if you read wp:v it discusses what constitutes a reliable source. Often, there are project pages that relate to the subject of the article where users discuss as a group how to meet the criteria of the 3 pillars. Appreciate, an article without any sources, does not belong in an encyclopedia of knowledge. THis is a policy of wikipedia, not my personal opinion.Alan.ca 08:38, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Don't get me wrong, we need people like yourself on here to write that category of article. I am trying to encourage you to focus on the ones that are verifiable or to provide verifiable sources for what you're writing.Alan.ca 08:40, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use disputed for Image:Crystalmasstg.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Crystalmasstg.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 02:32, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Ottovonschirach.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Ottovonschirach.jpg. I noticed 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 even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. High on a tree 16:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Lmtf.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. 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 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. Mønobi 03:14, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
