[edit] Welcome

Hi YrPolishUncle, and Welcome to Wikipedia!


My name is Λua∫Wise and I have been on Wikipedia for sometime now. I have been wandering around when I saw your name and decided to drop by to see if you need help with Wikipedia. I have also attached this list of some links that might help you:

You should also note that you have to sign your comments by using four of those ~ at the end of your messages (i.e. ~~~~, this will simply place your user name and date; see my signature at the end of this message as an example.)
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have a question or require help with Wikipedia, you can leave me a new message here.
P.S. Some new users find editing Wikipedia a bit difficult at first, but it only seems this way. In fact it is quite easy to get used to editing it and actually finding that enjoyable ! :)
Good luck! :)

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

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:ReidAHvsTMDmed.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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

This has been corrected. YrPolishUncle (talk) 11:05, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Image deletion

Hi! When you uploaded the image, you should have seen a large red warning that looked like the one located at {{AutoReplaceable fair use people}} - that was the notification. The reason that the image was deleted was because it's a non-free image of a living person, and those aren't allowed when you're using the image solely to depict the person. I know the rules suck in this case, but there's one more avenue available if you can't find a free image - ask Paley himself to donate an image under a free license. I've had lots of success with this in the past, so check out U:RFC for a guide, or just get back to me if you need any help. east.718 at 18:31, March 7, 2008

[edit] Pittsburgh musical groups

I support the rename so that it's consistent with other categories, but you should really seek consensus at WP:CFD before renaming a category. dissolvetalk 19:05, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
