Orphaned non-free image File:Tronc, inc logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Tronc, inc logo.png. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:47, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

Limbaugh Family
Hey I see you reverted my edits, do you really think this kind of not-notable family history has a place on Wikipedia? You didn’t give a reason for the revert. I don’t think we should be documenting non-notable high school teachers just because they are members of a famous family.Grey Wanderer (talk) 03:04, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I disagree, and think that there needs to be continuity in a genealogy. You can't cite individuals downstream without noting where their ancestors were upstream. If you feel some of the downstream people are non-notable (I don't) then make that call and cull the article completely of non-notable individuals (anyone who doesn't meet the notability criteria), but then the entire article could go to AFD. Calwatch (talk) 03:06, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * As a Missourian, I think the family is notable, they’ve certainly been a bit of a political dynasty here no need to AfD them. This isn’t the place to list every member of every generation or document family genealogy. I’ll try to convert the list into prose, highlighting the notable members and important aspects of the family. Grey Wanderer (talk) 03:20, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Is it better a category though? Like the Coors or Ridder families? I'm going to list it for review to get other opinions. Calwatch (talk) 03:28, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ralphs, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Edward J. DeBartolo ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Ralphs check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Ralphs?client=notify fix with Dab solver]).

Draft:Banfield (NewsNation)
Were you trying to move Draft:Banfield (NewsNation) to mainspace? I can do it for you if you believe it's ready. BilCat (talk) 03:26, 11 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Yes, I was. Thank you. Calwatch (talk) 06:52, 11 March 2021 (UTC)


 * ✅ After I made the initial move, I realized that the correct title is Banfield (TV program), as disambiguators should be as generic as possible. BilCat (talk) 07:42, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

Adfontesmedia.com and Mediabiasfactcheck as a source
Hi Calwatch. I noticed that you recently used adfontesmedia.com and mediabiasfactcheck .com as sources in Media bias in the United States. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN and WP:RSP is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of such information. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal (talk) 21:28, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
