December 2008
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Out From Under (Britney Spears song) has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bblog(?:cu|fa|harbor|mybrain|post|savy|spot|townhall)?\.com\b' (link(s): http://britneyspearsspy.blogspot.com/2008/12/reported-circus-singles.html). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks!

File source problem with File:1abctestimony.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:1abctestimony.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:25, 25 February 2009 (UTC).

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.

File source problem with File:Revolvermadonna.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Revolvermadonna.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:29, 19 December 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk ) 08:29, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:RobinM.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:RobinM.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. dave pape (talk) 21:25, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

How is what I did to the Adrienne Bailon article wrong???? (Circusstar (talk) 22:32, 26 February 2010 (UTC))
 * It is completely unconfirmed by an outside source, as I explained. Record company PR and a fansite are unacceptable sources, and for our purposes a buzz single is completely unnotable unless it's been released for public sale.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 06:12, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

This is the final warning that you are receiving regarding your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Your recent edits to Mariah Carey pages are classified as vandalism.--Petergriffin9901 (talk) 20:14, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Is there anyone in specific I can talk to? I feel many of my edits are perfectly fine and that many Wikipedia users abuse the ability to block me or delete the edits/pages. I would like to be able to ask questions and/or defend myself before its too late. (Circusstar (talk))
 * Use the article talk pages to discuss edits that have been reverted. The only dangerous thing is to repeatedly insert already reverted material without discussion it on the talk pages. --jpgordon:==( o ) 21:43, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

I have nominated Spectacular (Kiely Williams song), an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Spectacular (Kiely Williams song). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns.

Rihanna Rated R Remix Cover
The cover has been tagged for deletion in accordinance with WP:NFCC (copyright law). The article already contains one non-free media item (the album cover). The remix cover does not add anything new which conceptualizes reader understanding and has no context in the sense that the article already mentions the remix version several times. If the covers were significantly different there could be a case for different covera but that is not the case. Please do not ignore this message and re-upload the cover.Lil-unique1 (talk) 22:01, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Bionic (Christina Aguilera album)
Woohoo is NOT a promotional single, it is the second single from the album because on May 25, 2010 it went for adds on rhythmic airplay, making it the second single in the United States only. So "You Lost Me" is the third single. Candyo32 (talk) 01:34, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * While it may have been added to Rhythmic airplay, it has not been acknowledged as the next single by her official website, however, "You Lost Me" has.Circusstar (talk)
 * Just because a single is not actively promoted does not mean it is not a single. Candyo32 (talk) 18:30, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Danger in the Air.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Danger in the Air.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.

Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
