Orphaned non-free media (File:SumZeroLogo.png)
Thanks for uploading File:SumZeroLogo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:51, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Conflict of interest editing
I suggest if you have a conflict of interest, which appears likely given your desire to insert all sorts of spammy links to the SumZero page, that you should disclose your conflict of interest and avoid editing the SumZero page. I have SumZero on my watchlist now, and I'll be diligently monitoring it for any spam that violates Wikipedia community rules. CitizenNeutral (talk) 00:25, 20 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi CitizenNeutral, I merely want to maintain the article's integrity and keep it as informative as possible without boasting a marketing standpoint, and do apologize if it seems too "PR-like" - please suggest a way forward rather than removing entire sections. Much of the information expunged from the entry is cited in places other than the SumZero website. --Martinklemes (talk) 02:14, 20 February 2013 (UTC)


 * The way forward, at minimum, is (a) never add anything to the article unless you also cite a source (that is, include a footnote); (b) you can use only sources that meet Wikipedia's definition of "reliable sources" - so, no press releases, no publicity materials, and no information from a self-published website, to list just a few unacceptable sources; and (c) what goes into the Wikipedia article must come from the source that you put in the footnote.


 * You can read more about relevant Wikipedia rules at WP:COI. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 04:12, 27 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Removed all self-published sources, are the news stories valid to cite? As per WP:RS they seem to meet the requirements. Martinklemes (talk) 16:04, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Phi Mu Omicron


A tag has been placed on Phi Mu Omicron requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.  D u s t i *Let's talk!* 01:18, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Kappasigmaflag.tif
Thanks for uploading File:Kappasigmaflag.tif. 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. Stefan2 (talk) 16:30, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
