Replaceable fair use Image:Mingo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mingo.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. 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 01:32, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Mingo.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mingo.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 image. 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 uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Stifle (talk) 09:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:AlecStevens.jpg
A tag has been placed on File:AlecStevens.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Alec Stevens
The second half of the article on Alec Stevens was deleted after a photograph was added this morning. Here is the deleted text:

A dedicated Christian since late 1989, Alec Stevens has also published two issues of Glory to God which feature stories from the Bible, historical accounts, and modern-day testimonies of faith. July 2006 saw the release of the full color Sadhu Sundar Singh graphic novel, published under his own Calvary Comics imprint. This is a biography in comics form of the famous Indian evangelist. In September 2007 Stevens authored E. J. Pace: Christian Cartoonist, a 250-page biography with hundreds of drawings and rare photos of Dr. Pace, a United Brethren missionary to the Philippines and itinerant Bible teacher whose work appeared in many Christian journals in the early-to-mid-20th century. Erlo Stegen and the Revival Among the Zulus was published in July 2008. This graphic novel portrays the events which led to the formation of the KwaSizabantu Mission in South Africa. A reprint anthology of Glory to God was released in June 2009 with additional material. His Clendennen: Soldier of the Cross graphic novel, published in March 2010, is a biography of B. H. Clendennen, a World War II veteran who later founded The School of Christ International which operates in over 150 countries.

Since 1992, Alec Stevens has served as an instructor at The Kubert School. Many of his former students are now industry professionals.

In addition to being an artist, Stevens is also a singer and guitarist. He did session work for Paragon Records (London, UK) in 1988 and 1992, and his band The Quest were a staple in New York City clubs like CBGB's and Kenny's Castaways in the early 1990s. He later played with the Christian bands As Living Stones and Force for Good. From 2002-2003 he was a tenor in the front rank of the Times Square Church choir, singing before hundreds of thousands in an evangelistic outreach in Nigeria, West Africa, as well as in Carnegie Hall for a 9/11 benefit. From April, 2010 through August, 2016 Alec Stevens worked with the Times Square Church music ministry as a guitarist. His preferred instrument is a 1962 reissue Fender Stratocaster.
