Thanks for the reply bro. Actually I found the user who helped you to create this layout for you. His username is The-G-Unit-Boss. I just found it at the bottom of your user page with this phrase: Page Styling Credit: ¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤. HipHopSavior (talk) 04:42, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Baous v. 808-Thug
Even though his stage name is not "DJ Khaled Presents Ace Hood", we can still redirect it to "Ace Hood" because they had an album called Gutta. Ruthless could also be presented by DJ Khaled too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 808-Thug (talk • contribs) 01:49, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:500x gus-johnson.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:500x gus-johnson.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:500x gus-johnson.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:500x gus-johnson.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:13, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Adam-Schefter.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Adam-Schefter.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 19:48, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * We do not use non-free images to depict living people. That's why. This is per Foundation:Resolution:Licensing policy and is reflected in WP:NFCC #1. A free alternative can be obtained, since this person is living, making the use of a non-free image to depict him incompatible with our policies. Please do not restore the image again. If you have questions, ask. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 23:07, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Adam-Schefter.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Adam-Schefter.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 19:48, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Better source request for File:ASchef.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:ASchef.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 04:05, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

PLEASE stop
As I've explained, the Foundation, which oversees this project, takes a very dim view towards using non-free images of people who are alive for depiction purposes. You have uploaded another non-free image File:ASchef.jpg, which is non-free, for use in depicting Mr. Shefter. This is not acceptable. I strongly, strongly encourage you to stop. If you are uncertain of copyright issues, uncertain of permission issues, etc. we can help you clarify those issues. However, continuing to upload non-free images in an attempt to depict this person is very likely to lead to a block of your editing privileges. Please STOP. --Hammersoft (talk) 04:26, 11 December 2010 (UTC)


 * And again you've uploaded a non-free image. Except this time, you got the license wrong. If you look at this, at the top you will see that the license specifies non-commercial. That is incompatible with Wikipedia's licensing requirements for free images. I've retagged this image as non-free, and once again have removed an image you had uploaded from Adam Schefter. Please, please, please, stop what you are doing. It is blatantly obvious that your heart is in the right place but you lack the knowledge of copyright in general and our non-free content policies in particular to add an image to this article. --Hammersoft (talk) 20:08, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

STFU?
I'll thank you to keep a civil tongue in your head. Your attitude is, quite frankly, disgusting. Anyway, the tone of your edit to the 2010 Minnesota Vikings season article is completely inappropriate, and you haven't even provided a source, so how are we supposed to know that these "analysts'" opinions are even real? – PeeJay 22:05, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm well aware of how disappointing a season it was. Unfortunately, the O-line was shit and Brett just couldn't cope without decent protection. Combine that with the fact that our receiving corps was vastly undermanned for much of the season (Sidney out for the first few weeks, Percy with his headaches, and Bernard just being generally shit) and you have the bulk of the reason why the Vikes struggled this season. Oh, and don't forget the awful decision-making ability of Brad Childress, signing Randy Moss and then shipping him out a couple of weeks later, and Jared Allen's apparent inability to get any sacks for the first half of the season. But while these reasons may all be 100% accurate, you must not add them to the article without a reliable source to back them up. If you can't provide that, then please don't make any further edits. – PeeJay 00:07, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Blocked
It appears you have systematically used a flickr account,, in order to "wash" copyrighted photographs and falsely declare them to be freely licensed. This cannot be tolerated on this project, as it deeply undermines the trust between contributors. You are therefore now blocked, indefinitely. Fut.Perf. ☼ 18:30, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

How do I get unblocked?  ฿aous•the•Deacon   20:29, 17 January 2011 (UTC)


 * As far as I am concerned, only if you promise to stay completely away from image uploading. You can also ask another admin to review this, by pasting the unblock template on this page. Fut.Perf. ☼ 21:29, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Okay, how do I turn off the new features? --  ฿aous•the•Deacon   16:21, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
