License tagging for Image:Dionne79.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dionne79.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.

Sanger-Harris
I love it! Never would have thought to scan a credit card. However, you probably will need to include some fair use information ... there's an automated system (bot) that's going through removing images whose fair-use justification isn't spelled out clearly. I don't entirely know how to do it, but just be prepared. :) Lawikitejana 20:39, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Dionne Warwick albums
from User talk:Mattbrundage:

Imagine that you are holding in your hands a copy of Warwick's Make Way for Dionne Warwick and you are asked to describe it. You would most likely not begin with "This was...", but with "This is..." I actually own a couple of old Warwick albums and would definitely describe them in the present tense.

The age of a published work or object should not be the determinant of the tense used to describe it. For instance, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Rome, The Bible, even Stonehenge are all described in the present tense, despite all being older than Warwick's albums.

A better determinant of tense would be whether or not something or someone is still in existence. Albums in general (like many other objects) will exist in perpetuity and should be described in the present tense. Conversely, historical objects and people that no longer exist should be described in the past tense.

One more small thing... I noticed that in the first sentence of your note, you referred to the album pages as your own. -- Mattbrundage 14:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi there, I was going to explain why the present tense should be used in the lead sentence of articles describing object that exist in the present, as albums do, but it seems Mattbrundage has done so above, probably better than I would have done. His comments are absolutely correct.  In using was to describe something that exists in the present, you are making a grammatical error.  Strobilus 03:16, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Dates
Just so you know, the software will detect linked dates so that they come out according to user preferences: 1991-08-09 will come out as August 9, 1991, 9 Aug 1991, or 1991-08-09 depending on how things are set up in Special:Preferences. So there's no need to mess around with linked dates or convert them to other formats or anything, unless of course they're unlinked. —Scott5114↗ 06:22, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Please re-read that. You don't need to fiddle with the dates. Let me know if you have any questions. —Scott5114↗ 06:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Categories
Before changing the categories in David Yurman, please check to ensure they are valid categories. In the case of your recent edits, these are not valida categories as the spelling settled on for jewelers is different. -- Whpq 20:58, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

More Dionne
Hi, I created a quick article for Presenting Dionne Warwick which I encourage you to flesh out a bit if you can. Also, I made a proposal on Talk:Here, Where There Is Love about moving the article to Here Where There is Love and would appreciate your thoughts. Cheers Strobilus 21:53, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

A Case of Rape
You recently reverted me on this article. Based on your edit summary, you obviously think that the way the article was written was ideal. Note, however, that phrases like "a gripping film", "the smarmy rapist", and " a woman so arrogant, melodramatic, and unscrupulous" are unacceptable considering our neutral point of view policy and the Manual of Style. I hope you understand that the point of Wikipedia is to function as an encyclopedia, not to "do justice" to anything. We report verifiable information - that is all.

You also re-introduced various formatting errors and run-on sentences in your blanket revert. This is why reverting content edits is generally a bad idea, as multiple types of changes are usually all in the same edit. I urge you to read some of Wikipedia's featured articles on films, to get a sense of how we write about movies here. Natalie (talk) 14:56, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

The Broadway department store list
Hello, I noticed you recently restored the list of The Broadway stores to the page. As you have noticed, some Wikipedia users have felt that these lists are not allowed. Please join the discussion at the link below and share your thoughts. Articles for deletion/List of Bloomingdale's locations It is my opinion that these lists, as long as they are not extremely long (more than 100 stores or so) and can be sourced, are a great addition to the article. Hopefully, we can build a consensus that agrees with us. PanzaM22 (talk) 19:21, 21 October 2008 (UTC)  Mike

Orphaned non-free image File:Sangerharris.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Sangerharris.jpg. 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) 18:15, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:LSDonaldsons.jpg


The file File:LSDonaldsons.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Unused logo with no article used, it's also can't move to commons because of an unused logo will be deleted as of out of project scope."

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.
