This can't be speedily deleted because it doesn't meet any of the criteria. If you continue to blank the article or replace it with messages for other users you could be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Francs 2000 00:27, 10 October 2005 (UTC) reply

Image copyright problem with Image:Lupefiasco.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lupefiasco.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Carnildo or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you.


Image Tagging Image:Hypewilliams.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Hypewilliams.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{ GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 13% for major edits and 38% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 13 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 00:00, 27 February 2006 (UTC) reply

Your edits to GOOD Music

Please note that Wikipedia policy is not to list unreleased albums: they may be added as soon as they are released. Please don't keep re-adding these albums without good reason. Could you please leave edit summaries for your edits? -- The Anome 12:32, 14 August 2006 (UTC) reply

So why are there many articles listed here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Upcoming_albums ? Shawn88 12:34, 14 August 2006 (UTC) reply

If they can't be verified, they shouldn't exist: a great many of them seem to be potential deletion candidates. Could you possibly provide a verifiable cite that confirms the planned release dates and other details given for these albums? -- The Anome 12:38, 14 August 2006 (UTC) reply

Non-free use disputed for Image:Goodmusic.png

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Goodmusic.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 16:23, 4 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Pastel Clothing listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Pastel Clothing. Since you had some involvement with the Pastel Clothing redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Mr. Guye ( talk) 19:20, 13 March 2016 (UTC) reply
