Brhannan SSP

I created it after the account blatantly showed itself to be an SPA more interested in keeping an article than improving the encyclopedia. That "new user" was oversigning all his sigs, too. That's not the sign of either a new or a GF user. I didn't expect a COIN answer due to backlog, and ANI was borderline anyway - they're there for documentation purposes. MSJapan (talk) 23:34, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Comment I don't understand the intensity of this person's reaction, but I am deeply sorry for the mistakes I made. I have contributed to Wikipedia in the past; for example, I contributed a photograph that I took (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dayton_Daily_News) because it seemed odd that the entry on a Pulitzer-prize winning newspaper would not have it. I contributed to the Katie Reider entry because I know something of the artist and had information to contribute that would enhance the entry. I did not create the initial entry; I only sought to make it better after I learned of her death and visited Wikipedia to learn more about what happened. The entry was clearly lacking! I appreciate the comments you've made on my behalf in other forums, so I'm stopping by here to let you know your interpretation of events is correct and to offer my side of the story.

"the Allmusic"

I factored that into the bot- it should have replaced any instance of "the All Music Guide" with "Allmusic" and "the [[All Music Guide]]" with "[[Allmusic]]". I'd be surprised if there were many others- have you seen it much? I am sure I could knock up a bot that would replace them, if "the Allmusic" was not a phrase that would ever be needed... J Milburn (talk) 22:58, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I've found the problem- the italics. "All Music Guide" doesn't need to be italicised, so I didn't factor that in when in when with "the". The reason your three articles show up near the top is because you were probably one of the only people who wrote "the ''[[All Music Guide]]''" rather than "the [[All Music Guide]]", "''[[All Music Guide]]''" or, the most common, "[[All Music Guide]]". The other three were picked up and changed to the correct new name. An error on my part, but a small enough one that it should be fixable by hand- thanks for your comments.

jack hardy edit

I added a very important name that should be included in the list of attendees of the songwriters circle the only reason that I put a link to cdbaby was so that you can see that this is a real and not made up person. The link doesn't need to be added but can you please allow the name of the person to be added. Thank youWindyapple (talk) 22:29, 8 August 2008 (UTC)windyapple

RE: folk/traditional music

Hello to you as well, my pleasure to make your acquaintance. RE: folk/traditional edits... Reg/Ex not executed as planned, first few instances looked OK, problem resolved, my apologies extended. I will only change Folk to Folk Music or similar variant [[folk]] --> [[Folk music|folk]]. Not necessarily a DAB or DAB Redirect but with over 11,000 links to the redirect Drums, 4000+ to Keyboards, 2000+ to Guitars these articles (traditional/pop/rock/punk MODERN music related) are some of the worst in the encyclopedia! Genre's are equally in bad shape New Wave --> New Wave music, Punk --> Punk rock, Soul --> Soul music, Gospel --> Gospel music. It only makes sense to edit several issues with each edit. Folk was the only Genre in which I attempted a regex type fix. As a genre [[Folk]] is useless and many link to [[folk (music)]] a redirect to [[folk music]] which reads like a DAB page in pop ups. Traditional was the likely choice. Obviously Folk music itself needs a cleanup. Having already disambiguated Punk, New Wave, and their variants / redirects, and also a major portion of the poorly formatted genre links to Soul and Gospel, Folk is a tough one. Regardless I'll make only the above mentioned edit when cleaning up pages with links to drums, keyboards, guitars and other music related plural (red/redirect) links and dab redirects, and leave the rest for an expert such as yourself. Happy editing. Slysplace ^{talk ♫} 23:14, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Slyspace! Thanks for the note. I'm sorry I was so curt with you earlier. I was just trying to keep things brief. I neglected to thank you for your efforts. I do appreciate your efforts at disambiguation. Thanks for hearing my concerns and happy editing to you as well. -MrFizyx (talk) 01:43, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Reconsider CfD vote?

Hello -- I am wondering if you would be willing to reconsider or withdraw your vote for "Delete" regarding Category:Lebanese blogs now that I've created Category:Blogs by country? --Wassermann (talk) 06:13, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm going to hold off on that for now, but I'll be very likely to change my vote if the categories are populated. I'll look again in a day or two. Best wishes. -MrFizyx (talk) 12:56, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Image problems

I've fixed the image problems that were happening with the Fast Folk & Sing Out! articles - X201 (talk) 17:58, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

My language problems

OK, I get it now! Thanks for clearing that up. Now I understand why some people were having trouble understanding what I meant. We can change "LGBT former Hare Krishnas" to "LGBT people formerly involved with the Hare Krishna movement". And we can change "Former LGBT Hare Krishnas" to "Hare Krishnas who formerly identified as LGBT". Sorry for the added confusion. Fartbucket (talk) 08:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Primatech.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Primatech.gif. 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rockfang (talk) 05:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Paleface

Hi there, thanks for your comments. Paleface, the American Folk songwriter released his first record on a major US label (Polydor) in 1991....while the Finnish Rapper came about much later in the 2000's. How should i go about this? Any advice will be greatly appreciated! SM

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Born2Add.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Born2Add.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:05, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Paleface (musician)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Paleface (musician), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Paleface. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:57, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

November 2008

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Paleface (musician) a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. Ioeth _{(talk contribs friendly)} 21:58, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

I know how to move a page. In this case the page had a longer history as a disambiguation page. I thought it better to leave the history where it was. BUT, whatever dude. It wouldn't be my choice, but do it your way. -MrFizyx (talk) 22:07, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Acoustic music

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Acoustic music. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Acoustic music. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:14, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello MrFizyx! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot notifying you on behalf of the the unreferenced biographies team that 1 of the articles that you created is currently tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 941 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

1. Corinne West - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Re:Cry Cry Cry photos

I have restored File:Cry3 promo lg.jpg and File:Cry Cry Cry.jpg. The information/rationales on the image pages were a little substandard- if you're going to use one or both of the files, please redo them. However, this is not a standard case- the album cover would normally be legit on the album article, but merging the album article into the artist article does not mean that it is automatically legitimate on the artist article. In cases like this, it may be best to merely have an article on the album, and redirect the page on the artist to the page on the album, including the artist details on the album page. This is especially useful as the album cover has a picture of the band members anyway. J Milburn (talk) 11:36, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Essentially you're suggesting I rename the article and arrange it in a less logical way so that those policing policy will be less confused. It is already about the album/the band/the tour. It was a short lived collaboration, by three notable artists. I see no reason to split it or give the recorded part of the collaboration top billing. I've attempted to add a FUR for each photo. I'll understand if the promo shot goes, but removing the album photo because of the way the article is organized doesn't make much sense. Thanks for your help though, I don't mean to be unappreciative. -MrFizyx (talk) 22:08, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Well, the album cover is gonna need more justification that just "it's an album cover", as this is not an article about the album. Additionally, I am not seeing how the promo photo is justified. All three subjects are still alive, and so the image could be replaced with a composite of images of the three subjects. Regardless, if the album cover is being used, the promo photo shows nothing that the cover doesn't. J Milburn (talk) 22:31, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the notice, but I don't have time to address this one. Feel free to add the FUR if you wish (it is an alternative cover/packaging relative to the original albums) or delete it if you must. -MrFizyx (talk) 20:13, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Blame Sally

The article Blame Sally has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I can't find enough significant coverage in reliable sources to prove this band meets the notability guidelines

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
