Talk:David Shire

Fair use rationale for Image:David shire 2.jpg
Image:David shire 2.jpg is being used on this article. 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at 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 there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 00:50, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Edits, Jan. 29, 2008
Something is terribly awry with these recent edits, I'm not sure what to do here. Also, there is the name of the editor: "David Shire". Assuming good faith, WP:COI may be involved here. Assuming something else, this may just be an inexperienced editor or a WP:HOAX. Thoughts?JeanColumbia (talk) 15:36, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Based on the just-posted message, I'll assume that the edist were done in good faith by THE David Shire. Here is what I propose: I'll revert to the article as it existed just before the edits in question, and then bring the article up-to-date, using the usual reliable, verifiable sourcing. I'll start this work, at least the reverting, now, and will bring the article up-to-date this afternoon. (Don't worry, as we know nothing is ever lost in Wikipedia-land, but I'm printing out the existing article right now for ease of editing). Should this not be ok, I'm sure there will be comments!

I'm also putting this note here lest anyone think-or fear-that I am vandalizing. JeanColumbia (talk) 13:21, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

In short, the formatting was f'd up and some of the data (like the URLs for the external links) was lost because somebody, either the real David Shire or someone posing rather ham-handedly cut-and-pasted the rendered text in. I don't mean to be hurtful, but this was an amateur mistake, and like in many other things, people really shouldn't participate until the get an idea of what models to follow. There are safe ways to add info, and unsafe ones. Now after this, the article will have to be massively restructured, or at least re-edited. Yeesh. SWalkerTTU (talk) 08:43, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Washington Square, The Village Stompers?
Is this David Shire, with a VERY long resume' @ IMDB, the author of Washington Square, performed by The Village Stompers? The ASCAP website won't hyperlink with Shire's name. He's listed w/ BMI as author of hundreds of compositions. His year of birth (l937) makes this song look like an early money maker for him that he doesn't want publicized. Anyone know anything?

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:


 * http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/1E003F0DF25A9281?artistid=1072042&majorcatid=10002&minorcatid=203
 * Triggered by  on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.
