Shawnee Smith
Hi. Please do not perform an entire set of reverts to a page without at least explaining why as you did here on the Shawnee Smith article. You removed persondata, additional categories and style changes that the page actually needed for what appears to be no reason. You also removed a maintenance tag without remedying the problem which, again, I can only guess as to why. If you have a problem with the edits I performed, please contact me on my talk page before reverting or open a discussion on the article talk page first so a consensus can be reached if need be. Thanks.  Pinkadelica ♣  09:10, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, if you didn't agree with the changes or felt something shouldn't have been removed, you could have approached me or added it back without removing the other things I added to the page to improve it. The changes I made to the page were in line with policy and the manual of style. If you still don't agree with the changes, you're welcome to ask for a third opinion.

Your files all seem to be copyright violations, except perhaps the oldest one (at the bottom of that list). Please stop uploading things that do not belong to you, unless you can prove they are yours through the OTRS system. Thanks. Killiondude (talk) 06:28, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Lee-DeWyze.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Lee-DeWyze.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. 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? feydey (talk) 18:07, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Essentially, we don't use non-free pictures of people who are alive currently unless it is a very, very special circumstance. Killiondude (talk) 23:28, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Lee-DeWyze.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Lee-DeWyze.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Replaceable fair use File:True-Blood_Godric.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:True-Blood_Godric.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 or which could be adequately covered with text alone. 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. Melesse (talk) 20:31, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Jennifer Carpenter Filmography
You added a film credit to her filmography for Quarantine 2: Terminal and in the notes you put "Rumored". What are you doing adding rumors to a Wikipedia article? Every bit of information added to Wikipedia is to be fact with reliable sources. Rumored film credits is not reliable information as the film in question may never even happen.

DO NOT ADD A FILM CREDIT UNTIL THE FILM IS ACTUALLY BEING FILMED.

ArbCom elections are now open!
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.
