A tag has been placed on Russ Lee, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Hello. Concerning your contribution, :, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from. As a copyright violation, : appears to qualify for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. : has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. For text material, please consider rewriting the content and citing the source, provided that it is credible.

 * If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details at Talk: and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Requesting copyright permission for instructions.

 * Info on how to go about obtaining permission to use copyrighted material can be found here. However, you should also know that any permission that is granted must carry with it the permission for other Wikipedia editors to modify it.  Every article here can be freely modified by anyone, and this one would be no different.  In addition, the standard for articles is that they be written from a neutral point of view, and promotional material from the subject's own web site rarely fits the bill.  I personally would advise replacing this passage with biographical material written in your own words, preferably using more sources than just the subject's own web site.  Hope this helps.

License tagging for Image:Dctj.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dctj.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 20:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

David Taylor Jr.
Just to make sure you'll see this - Wikipedia has a notability policy, which is one of our core policies. There are a variety of different sub policies, but the main this is that a subject can only have an article on Wikipedia if the subject of the article has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial works from independent sources. At present, the article David Taylor Jr. fails the notability criteria. Natalie 23:22, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:2007comeseemelogo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:2007comeseemelogo.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 21:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Davidtaylorjrguitar.jpg


The file File:Davidtaylorjrguitar.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Poor quality orphaned personal image with no foreseeable encyclopedic use."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

File permission problem with File:Davidtaylorjrguitar.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Davidtaylorjrguitar.jpg. 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 in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:56, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

April 2024
Please do not change the personal pronouns of individuals in articles, as you did to Sam Smith. Wikipedia refers to all people, including transgender and nonbinary people, by the pronouns they have most recently requested for themselves; this applies to all phases of their lives, unless they have requested otherwise. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted; repeatedly adding incorrect pronouns may result in a loss of editing privileges. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanielRigal (talk) 19:03, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
