List of current UFC fighters
Thank you for your constructive edit on Uriah Hall's nickname. However your other edits where you removed necessary content and didn't explain why were not so constructive, and have been reverted. I see you are new to Wikipedia. I would like to help familiarize you with the rules and the editing format for the List of current UFC fighters page. The admins here are strict and will ban you easily for removing content, so I'm looking out for you. If you have any questions, just let me know here or on the talk page here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_current_UFC_fighters

Thank you. 173.171.26.116 (talk) 11:10, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Keiichiro Yamamiya
This is poorly written, but he's probably notable. Bearian (talk) 00:14, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Francimar Barroso, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Amazonas (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Orphaned non-free image File:Francimar-Barroso After Win.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Francimar-Barroso After Win.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:12, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Stipe Miocic UFC.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Stipe Miocic UFC.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. January ( talk ) 20:00, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Your edits and flag icons
Hello! Thank you for all the effort you've been putting into MMA articles. You might want to check out the MMA project page at WP:MMA which contains, among other things, various style issues that MMA editors have achieved consensus about over the years. One of them is that as per the Wikipedia community consensus flag icons do not belong in MMA infoboxes nor, as per MMA consensus and an RFC, do they belong in the MMA records table. If you disagree with either community consensus the next step is to start up a new discussion at the relevant talk page and achieve a new consensus. In the meantime please respect current consensus views and do not add flag icons as you've been doing. If you have any questions or comments you can reach me on my talk page. Thanks. SQGibbon (talk) 23:52, 13 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much for removing the flag icons on your own (I handled some of the articles myself). The MMA community has been marred by disagreements over the year, so much so that the community is still under what basically amounts to probation. It's very refreshing to see new editors not only work hard to improve the project but to do so according to the project consensus. Again, thanks, and I hope your time editing here is fun and productive. SQGibbon (talk) 00:06, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alexander Trevino, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages MMA, Strikeforce and Jiu-jitsu (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

License tagging for File:John-Dodson UFC.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:John-Dodson UFC.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:05, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Tim-Kennedy UFC.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Tim-Kennedy UFC.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 06:57, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

All uploaded images deleted
Hi There. I've just deleted your last few uploaded images as the claimed licence was clearly incorrect. Images taken from other websites are (usually) copyrighted and cannot be uploaded here with a claim that they are under a create-commons or other free licence. As per the notes above on this page, Wikipedia does not host copyrighted (non-free) images of living people - Peripitus (Talk) 07:01, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
