Julie Couillard
Hi Dreadarthur, the redirect is a temporary thing. If someone believes there is enough information out there to create an article about Julie Couillard, the article can be created in the place of this redirect. I haven't seen an article on her life story, yet. If one were to be published, that would warranrt the creation of a Wikipedia article. Clerks. (talk) 12:52, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Don Stevenson
A tag has been placed on Don Stevenson 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 a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Madcoverboy (talk) 19:51, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Christl Verduyn
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Christl Verduyn, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.iccs-ciec.ca/pages/6_prizes/govgenaw/2006_cverduyn.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:09, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Skip Spence/External Links
Hi there, regarding use of external links - They should be used very sparingly in wikipedia articles: Generally they should only appear within the references (obviously) and in the external links section at the very end of the article. Try to include no more than say the five most important and/or official websites related to the article. They should never be used in the middle of an article.

If a redlinked person is not notable enough for wikipedia then you should remove the link, if they are only notable as part of a band or group etc you can redirect that link to the band's article instead: E.g. Guy Berryman.

Wikipedia is so adamant about not using images because it's the free encyclopedia. This means it should be free from copyrighted material as much as possible. Posting images is the visual equivalent of just copying the text from a website and pasting it as a wikipedia article. Needless to say the people who spent their time making the material will not be too happy that you've decided to give it away and remove them of any rights to their text/photos! I hope i've helped you out with this. If you've any more questions about this feel free to message me on my talk page. Thanks! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 01:36, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and p.s.: if anyone wanted images i think they'd just do this first! Thanks. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 01:36, 10 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree, i guess this is probably the end of the matter. However one of your statements struck me as a little misinterpretation of what wikipedia is - ("It would seem that I am also promoting the photographs on the external site, which would be more welcomed than seeking permission for him to waive all rights by uploading to Wikipedia."). On the contrary, wikipedia is not about promoting sites outside of the site - in the aim of creating a free encyclopedia it is strongly encouraged to contribute quality free images.


 * Any image you see on the front page as article of the day or Did you know? MUST be a free image as a matter of principle. However this doesn't mean ALL the rights are waived - for example there are often protective terms applied (such as no derivative works or no commercial use of the work). Acknowledgement of authorship is almost always a stipulation too. For more information take a look at 10_things_you_did_not_know_about_images_on_Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a strange affair, and learning about how things work is often more difficult than understanding some of its specialist articles! Hope this helps you understand things.

Land of the Sun
Note that I've moved the article to Land of the Sun (single) so that it fits in with wikipedia naming policy. Alternatives like Land of The Sun (Single) and Land of the Sun (Single) (when typing in the search box on the left) redirect to that page now too. You can read the rules on naming articles about albums/songs etc HERE. Thanks. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 17:15, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: Dianne Heatherington
As you've noted in your second message, the categories in question don't exist at this point. Category:Canadian rock singers combined with Category:People from Winnipeg and Category:People from Toronto should be sufficient for now. Probably should have given more explanation of that at the time of category cleanup on Dianne Heatherington, and hope this explains things better. Meanwhile, WP:CANMUSIC is a good place to monitor for any Canadian music article discussions or developments. Dl2000 (talk) 03:21, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

John Baird (Canadian politician)
My recommendation is to watchlist the page and revert changes made which violate WP:BLP. If the page becomes impossible to control, then you can post a message on Requests for page protection to have the page protected from editing by unregistered or new users. Because most of our contributions come from IP editors, page protection is considered appropriate only to prevent disruption. An admin shouldn't protect the page preemptively unless some serious problems are on the horizon. Does that help? Protonk (talk) 02:21, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Back Alley John
Thanks for the message. I edited the headings to comply with WP:MOS and removed the tag. – ukexpat (talk) 01:17, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Colleen Peterson
Just so you know, Wikipedia can't cite personal recollections as sources for our article content. If you've published a book containing your recollections about Colleen Peterson, we could cite that — but we just can't cite individual editors' memories if the statement in question hasn't been published somewhere. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 00:41, 31 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Oh, and thanks for catching the John Baird issue last week. I didn't have it watchlisted, but you're correct that anything about his sexual orientation doesn't belong in the article until such time as he comes out, be it voluntarily or involuntarily. I have it watchlisted now, but you also don't have to be afraid to just remove something like that yourself if need be — even if it turned into a full-on edit war with the anonymous user, removing a straight (no pun intended) BLP violation like that isn't subject to WP:3RR rules. Bearcat (talk) 00:51, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Yep, you're right about that. Not only do we typically have to watch MPs articles extra-carefully for BLP issues during elections, but the constant problem with unelected candidates reposting unsourced cut-and-paste copies of their campaign literature invariably hits a fever pitch as well. And then if the election results in a change of government, we'll have to start locking things down like crazy, because anonymous editors — the more involved kind already know better or can have it explained to them on their talk pages — will inevitably start changing everything, from the infobox on Canada itself to List of current heads of state and government, to reflect the patently false notion that the winner of the election instantly becomes the incumbent PM the moment one of the network anchors makes the call, rather than having to actually be sworn in by the GG first. (And occasionally we even get a psychic who starts making those changes based on who's in the lead before any of the networks actually have enough data to make that call.) It's tiresome, and sometimes it almost makes the system in Zimbabwe look good in comparison. Bearcat (talk) 17:17, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the message. To be honest I don't know what the benefits/advantages are, but as the template exists and I have a Firefox addin that generates them automatically (http://wpcite.mozdev.org/), I have been using it a lot recently. – ukexpat (talk) 21:11, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Amazon reference in Them article
The customer comments on Amazon.com are just completely POV, although I thought it was a terrific review, myself. It's not really up to me to reconsider on this. I just couldn't leave it knowing the rules don't allow for commercial sites like Amazon and certainly not just a customer's review. The rateyourmusic citation is a little less questionable (someone else may disagree) but I applied the proper citation rules as used by the rest of the article. You should change the Allmusic references accordingly. Thanks for being so nice and mannerly about this. Always appreciated. Agadant (talk) 22:16, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Discography links
Could you refer me to any other discographies that link to reviews or commercially slanted websites. I thought just a listing of the album with Wikilinks such as this FA article of The Waterboys was all that was ever used. If the album or song doesn't have an article then there is no link. If referenced it is usually for the chart number as in the Waterboys article. What you are doing to my eyes is promoting the album with a review or commercial website to promote sales. I know this is unintentional on your part and perhaps is acceptable but I've never seen it on Wiki. Am I wrong? Just asking. Agadant (talk) 14:41, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * From what I see the only time this way of linking to external sites (commercial ones at that) were done by you. The Waterboys article does not have all albums with articles and the ones without have no linking.  You are putting in so many entries like this and I just don't think it is allowed.Agadant (talk) 20:57, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Here's an acceptable description for the disamb. page for the album Gloria as compared to what you put: Gloria, Shadows of Knight album. Compare all the other listings  there you'll not find one with the extra POV description that you put in.  If you research the sales for Gloria by SOK you will find that the millions of sales that is cited by SOK on their website is due only to large sales on compilation sets of multi songs released  like hits of certain decades released by Time or some such.  The website for Shadows of Knight is very POV: never mentioning that Gloria is a cover, boasting about Gloria being voted #81 best rock song by VHI, when it was Them's version that was voted #81— Really intentionally misleading.  Here's a link to the real VH1 list of best rock songs and it lists the THEM version. VH1 rock songs  I wouldn't use anything on their website as a reference.

Van Morrison discography
There is a very nice Van Morrison discography section already. Which I worked on with Kitchen Roll, who also has an extensive knowledge of Morrison. Please try to get more knowledge of how Wikipedia is supposed to work and what is acceptable. You probably will be a valuable contributor when you do.Agadant (talk) 15:54, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Them article deletions
I just don't have the time to selectively revise what you edited in the discography section. I just went back to where it was before you edited it. Some of your edit is acceptable. But other parts are not. Links to reviews and commercial websites are not, neither are personal comments on the releases. I don't have much time for Wikipedia right now and most of Van Morrison's articles are edited by Wiki standards and I have no wish to see that change. It takes a lot of hard work to research, write and reference the material according to Wiki standards. If you want to re-enter the material in a consistent manner with the rest of the article - great. To be done correctly, the edits are time consuming, though. Agadant (talk) 16:51, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Downchild Blues Band
The deleted text is here. The article reads like WP:OR, and has no independent verifiable sources to show that it meets the Notability (music) guidelines.

Downchild Blues Band
That's much better. I've tidied it a bit eg don't need well-known, since supposed to be notable, no refs in section headings etc. My main quibble is that you don't don't actually have references for the group winning the two awards, just a note saying what the US equivalents are (I assume the US awards are more important?) jimfbleak (talk) 07:15, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

February 2009
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Parachute Club (band) 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): \bmyspace\.com (links: http://www.myspace.com/ashleywey).

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. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. 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! --XLinkBot (talk) 04:02, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

List of people from Thunder Bay
Don't forget to add citations to the article. I don't know if such an article really needs them or not but all the others do and you have them on the city's article so you might as well copy paste them over to the list.  vıd ıoman  07:22, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Establishing notability generally requires including citations to substantial coverage in independent reliable sources. I hope that helps. More information is at wp:reliable sources and wp:notability. ChildofMidnight (talk) 20:20, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Page deletion, etc
Hello If you want to delete a page, check WP:AfD and WP:RfD. If there are several such pages to list and you feel like you want a comment from other users, you can check WP:RfC; I don't know if this is really designed for cases like this, but that's my best guess right now. Otherwise, you can ask around on the Wikipedia IRC channels: WP:IRC. Let me know if there's anything else I can do. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:09, 23 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Please don't blank pages like you did with Diddy Wah Diddy (Geraint Watkins song) - if you want to delete it, please nominate the page at WP:RFD. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I've nominated the page at WP:RFD, you may comment there. If people want these gone, I'll formally nominate the lot. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 23:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Tiffany Lynn Rowe
A tag has been placed on Tiffany Lynn Rowe requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.  Kyle  1278  21:02, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Varsity View, Saskatoon
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Varsity View, Saskatoon, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. I commented out your edits to the education section as per Verifiability. I searched for online sources that verify the existence of the gifted student program, but could not find any. Similarly, the links to the graduates also did not provide any proof. Though it is not visible, I kept the text in the article in case you find another source (book or other printed work) which can verify these statements.

Hello fellow 1%er
Well you of course have the right to revert any edit on your own, but I don't see any source in the article stating Nick as a member of the band. All there is is a quote saying "This grouping continued on briefly in 1975 with former Steppenwolf bassist Nick St. Nicholas replacing Dickie. The group was then largely inactive for nearly three years, until 1978", no reference at all. If you do find a source stating he was a member of the group or if I did miss a source in the article, please feel free to add him back. And I don't even see Blue Cheer mentioned in Nick's own page here. I know for sure right now that Joe Hasselvender wasn't a member of the band. He only made a guest appearance on What Doesn't Kill You... and I seriously doubt the band has had over 25 people pass though it. Rockgenre (talk) 04:17, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Saturday Night Blues (album)
Hi Dreadarthur

I have added the refimprove template to the above-captioned article after you removed the unreferenced template from it. It may be obvious, but in case it's not clear, none of the claims about the primary topic of the article is supported by the references. If you have any further questions on this, don't hesitate to reply here or on the article's talk page.

Regards, Bongo  matic  23:26, 6 February 2010 (UTC) Should you wish to reply, please do so here. I will watch this page for a few days, so no talkback or other comment on my talk page is required.


 * Many thanks for your comments here. You are correct-- I need to find more that supports the specific album, including its contents and credits.  At present, the credit information is from a commercial site (CD Universe or something similar), which I can't use as a reference.

Ian McLelland
I just reverted a large amount of vandalism in Ian McClelland article that you had added in the past ago. You should keep an eye on your work there in case it happens again. I checked his history, he has done this to alot of politics bio articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.68.230.129 (talk) 05:03, 6 April 2010 (UTC)


 * I know this post was from a month ago, but I just noticed it now and figured I had to explain since I was the editor that was being accused of vandalism by this IP. Since you thanked him on his talk page for letting you know and wondered why anyone would do that to this particular article, I have to assume that you agreed with the accusations. I would like to point out that of all the edits I have made on Wikipedia, I have not once made an edit that could be considered vandalism. My edits, particularly with this one and other politician articles were edits for such policies as WP:Headings, and WP:MOSBIO, cleaning up external links, and adding references to the article. In this case, the only vandalism edits were from the IP himself who reported me for vandalism. For over a month, I have been harassed by this IP, who would come behind me and revert any significant edits I made as vandalism. (To show how bad this got, one article, I added 9 references, and was reverted as vandalism because the IP said I was adding too many references) In a couple of cases, he reported me to other editors for vandalism as was done here on your talk page. These other editors quickly figured out I was not guilty of any vandalism and if you will take a look, I'm sure you will see what I'm talking about. I know none of this is your fault, but if the IP is going to accuse me of vandalism on your talk page, I feel I have to defend myself and set the record straight.Cmr08 (talk) 06:55, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Moby Grape Live
A tag has been placed on Moby Grape Live requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of 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. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. sillybillypiggytalk to me sign! 18:50, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Bill Bentley (producer)


The article Bill Bentley (producer) has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Eeekster (talk) 22:00, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Lovecraft sources
Hi Dreadarthur! I've been doing a fair bit of work on the H. P. Lovecraft article lately, mostly consisting of adding reliable 3rd party inline refs and re-writing sections of the article that had been plagiarized from Peter Buckley's The Rough Guide to Rock. I've more or less finished with the H. P. Lovecraft era and will soon be moving onto the Lovecraft section, most of which I think you wrote. There's some really good info there but I'm wondering if you could tell me what your sources were. I'm assuming that the Nick Warburton blog article was one of them but what other sources, if any, did you use? I'd be particularly interested in how you came by the list of former members in the Lovecraft infobox and it'd also be good to know what instruments all of these ex-members played. Anyway, if you could let me know, I will try to incorporate these sources into the supporting refs that I'll be adding to this section. Many thanks. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 23:24, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Sourcing
It is an absolute rule in Wikipedia that other Wikipedia articles are not to be used as sources for articles about anything except (in certain limited circumstances) Wikipedia itself. We require citations to reliable sources; and we make no pretense that Wikipedia, the encyclopedia that anybody can edit, is such a source. Period.

Frankie Miller Associated Acts
Thanks for your comment. Miller is a performing artist as well as a song writer, interestingly he has become better known as a song writer due to the success of his songs sung by well established artists. The list of associated artists here include primary connections, that is to say Miller wrote songs for these people. The other names are, of course, the bands and artists he worked with, they are therefore primary connections as well. I have 'Wikified' the list taking out the syntax, which are unconventional for a list in the Infobox and the list takes less vertical space now.

Warning about non-verifiable content - November 2010
Please stop adding or changing content without citing verifiable and reliable sources. I see from your talk page that you been warned about the lack of verifiability in your edits and your use of unreliable sources a number of times in the past. Yet you seem to have ignored these warnings and continue to add content without supporting references. With regards your recent editing of the Michael Clarke page, I am afraid that I have had to delete some of what you have added over the last few days because it is largely unsourced (and in some cases factually inaccurate). However, I have tried, where possible, to leave some unsourced information if it is not too contentious. I will attempt to add reliable inline references to support these unreferenced facts over the coming days, in order to save these parts of the article from deletion.

In addition, your use of the "References" section as a repository for lots of unsourced notes that are, at best, non-essential and at worst, totally irrelevant to the subject of the article, is rather inappropriate I feel. Yes, inline citations can be used to display text that doesn't fit into the main body of an article, but I would've thought it was obvious to anyone that this should be the exception, rather than the rule. I'm especially gob-smacked that you saw fit to remove a "Refimprove" tag from the Michael Clarke page when you have only added two, possibly three, references that meet the reliable sources criteria laid out at WP:V.

Inline citations should be used to cite reliable, independent, third-party sources, as clearly explained at Wikipedia:Inline citation and Wikipedia:Citing sources. They are not really meant for largely irrelevant, un-sourced notes. Verifiability is of the utmost importance on Wikipedia and I think Jimmy Wales himself says it best here: "it is better to have no information, than to have information with no sources." Unfortunately, you seem hell bent on ignoring this important aspect of editing on Wikipedia. As an aside, it probably wouldn't hurt for you to learn to use proper citation templates too, many of which can be found here.

I'm sorry if my comments seem harsh, but I have had issues with your editing on Wikipedia for a number of months, but have turned a blind eye to it for the most part. However, enough is enough. If you persist in adding unsourced content to Wikipedia articles and cluttering up the References section with unnecessary notes, I will be forced to report your conduct to the Administrators' noticeboard. I sincerely hope that it will not come to that. I want to make it clear that I am willing to help you source reliable, third-party references for the Michael Clarke page if you want me to. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 20:35, 3 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I realise that you were attempting to improve the Michael Clarke page – there was never any doubt of this in my mind. My concern is that much of what you contribute, good though it is, is lacking inline citations that support the statements in your text with reliable third-party sources. If I may be so arrogant for a moment, I am something of an expert on the history of The Byrds and I must say that most of what you added was absolutely correct - which is why I tried to refrain from deleting all of your unsourced additions. But to quote WP:V, "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth." If you want to improve an article, adding reliable supporting references is just as important as improving the quality of the article’s text itself. This is especially true regarding any text concerning living people (such as Roger McGuinn or David Crosby) as laid out at WP:BLP.


 * Regarding some of the sources you used, starclustermusic and the Terry Rogers site are self-published websites and therefore do not meet the criteria for reliable sources. You could argue that the Byrdwatcher website is also a self-published source, but it is arguably the premier Byrds-related website on the internet (and The Rough Guide to Rock even named it as such), plus a number of band members have agreed to be interviewed for the site, and it is the only fansite endorsed by the official Roger McGuinn/Byrds web page. Furthermore, the Byrdwatcher site was subjected to a peer review on the reliable sources noticeboard during the Good Article review for Sweetheart of the Rodeo (see here), and the site was found to be a reliable source. Bearing all these things in mind, I'm satisfied that its use on Wikipedia is justified (although the site does get some silly facts wrong from time to time - Johnny Rogan's Byrds' biography is still the most reliable source for all things Byrds-related in my opinion).


 * Also, just to touch on your use of note-like references...don't be afraid to put stuff in the main body of an article. If you think it's interesting and relevant information, then the reader should see it...so put it in the text, don't hide it away as a note. For example, when you mentioned that "Captain Soul" and "Artificial Energy" were two Byrds songs Clarke had a writing credit on, you should tell the reader which albums those songs appeared on in the article text itself because it's important and relevant. No need to use footnotes.


 * Looking forward, I think that the first thing we should try to do is find sources for all of the text currently in the article. As for the band Firebyrd, yes...you may well be right that it is relevant but it wasn't sourced, so I decided to excise it. I have no problem reinstating this text as long as it's got a supporting ref...and actually, I've just thought of a good supporting source for this info!


 * Take a look at another Byrds' drummer's page, Kevin Kelley, and see how almost every sentence has a supporting inline citation after it. This is ideally what we should be striving for with the Michael Clarke article...or any other article for that matter! I'll try to add some more refs in the coming days. You obviously have a good handle on Clarke's history and I have no shortage of Byrds-related reliable sources to use for refs. So between the two of us, I'm sure we can knock this article into better shape than it is in currently. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 02:06, 4 November 2010 (UTC)


 * No idea what happened to Byrdwatcher or why it stopped being updated in 1997. I expect the guy who runs it just got board with it. It's a shame though because it was a really good site. As for sourcing more refs for the Michael Clarke article, feel free to start adding citations from reliable sources like the Allmusic guide, newspaper websites or any official website for the likes of Crosby or McGuinn. Books, magazines or even LP/CD liner notes can be used as well. In addition, Google Books can often be a good source for reliable third-party references too. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 13:50, 4 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Please don't feel reluctant to edit the Michael Clarke page. Their were no real "deficiencies" in the contents of your edits, it’s just that they weren't referenced properly. Your text was well written and basically all factually correct (I think there may've been one fairly minor inaccuracy but I forget what it was now). All you really need to think about are citing reliable references and using inline notes more sparingly. I really don't mean to discourage you from editing Wikipedia, because your contributions are very valuable...they just need referencing. Anyway, I'm off now to try and answer some of your posts on the Michael Clarke talk page. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 12:54, 5 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, talk pages are for discussing the contents of the article and ways to improve it but it seems a bit silly to make suggestions for someone else to follow. You should just get stuck in and write additional content yourself. I tell you what, why don't you resume adding info to the Michael Clarke article, using reliable refs like Allmusic, newspaper websites, books, magazines or LP/CD liner notes where you can. If, however, you don't have a reliable reference just add a tag and I'll try to follow up by adding refs. I'm gonna be adding additional refs anyway, so it's no bigie for me. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 19:16, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Gene Clark's brief return to The Byrds
That clip is from the Smother's Brother's Comedy Concert Hour (it's Micheal Clarke on drums) and was, just as you surmise, recorded during Gene Clark's three week long return to The Byrds in October 1967. They also mimed to "Mr. Spaceman" on the same show, with some crazy, primitive psychedelic blue screen effects going on behind them. Check it out here...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4RLuk3vfjs

Clark's return to The Byrds may not be mentioned in the Gene Clark article—I haven't done much work on that article to be honest—but then again, he was only back in the band for three weeks of his life. Still, I suppose it should be mentioned...it is fairly historic I guess.

As for the main Byrds article, Clark's return is detailed in the "Line-up changes" section but it doesn't cover specific shows that Clark appeared on because that's too much detail for an article that is supposed to give an encyclopedic overview of the history of The Byrds. The Notorious Byrd Brothers article goes into a bit more detail, however, in the "Gene Clark's return" sub-section, and even goes so far as mentioning the Smothers' Brothers show and the songs performed. If you wanna add something about Clark's return to the Gene Clark article, go ahead. I can always add supporting refs for you later. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 13:55, 7 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I've added supporting refs for your latest additions to the Gene Clark article. However, I had to remove that part that said that Clark didn't contribute to "Goin' Back" because actually, there is some evidence to suggest that he sang backing vocals on the song. It's not a proven fact by any means, but it's certainly possible given the evidence. If you're interested, Clark’s contributions to the recording of The Notorious Byrd Brothers album are all detailed in the second paragraph of the "Gene Clark's return" sub-section of the Notorious article. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 12:49, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I've added a supporting ref to your latest additions. As for interviewing McGuinn, Crosby or Hillman, well it's a nice idea but even if they consented to an interview, it would probably constitute original research which isn't really allowed on Wikipedia. I'd also need to publish any interview I got if I was going to use it as a reference and while I'm sure the Byrds Flyght website would host it (I've had an essay on The Byrds' remastered CDs published there already) neither I or Byrds Flyght are really reliable sources...although we could probably get away with using it since it is straight from a band member’s mouth so to speak. But really the biggest concern would be violating Wikipedia's "no original research" rule, which is a big no-no. Privately e-mailing someone who was involved with events described in a Wiki article and then using that e-mail to add content to Wikipedia is definitely not encouraged. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 13:58, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Liberation Frequency


A tag has been placed on Liberation Frequency 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 web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Sparthorse (talk) 06:35, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Liberation Frequency


The article Liberation Frequency has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address 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 articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sparthorse (talk) 06:43, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Liberation Frequency
Hi Dreadarthur, thanks for the message on my talk page. You were fine removing the Proposed deletion notice from the article - they can be removed by anyone for any reason. However, I'm afraid that none of the sources you've added so far meet Wikipedia's standards for reliable sources. Specifically, the Liberation Frequency references are not independent of the subject (obviously) and LinkedIn pages can be written by anyone and are not subject to independent editorial oversight. What you need is coverage of Liberation Frequency in a reliable source. For example, if the BBC did a piece talking about Liberation Frequency's impact on the UK music scene, or The Times ran a piece on its innovative new business model, something like that. These will enable you to show that Liberation Frequency is notable. Please add reliable sources to the article soon, otherwise I, or another editor, will likely nominate it for a deletion discussion. Sparthorse (talk) 08:30, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Liberation Frequency for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Liberation Frequency is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Liberation Frequency until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Sparthorse (talk) 21:53, 28 November 2011 (UTC)


 * If I may, a couple of points. First, if you want your opinion about the potential deletion of Liberation Frequency, please contribute at Articles for deletion/Liberation Frequency, not on its talk page. Most editors don't look for messages on the talk page of an AfD. Your voice will only heard on the main discussion page.
 * Second, please understand that notability has a specific meaning on Wikipedia. It is established when other publications have covered a subject. In this case, when other reliable sources have discussed Liberation Frequency. It is just as easy/hard for an online magazine to get such coverage as an offline one. I don't feel that you have made your case that online magazines should be an exception to this rule.
 * Finally, if you want to make the argument that online magazines should be subject to a different set of notability requirements, then you should open a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Notability and propose this new set of notability criteria there. Trying to establish consensus for a new set of rules in an AfD is highly unlikely to work. I hope this is helpful advice, Sparthorse (talk) 06:53, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

The Bot seems to be misreading text. The image in fact continues to be used to illustrate the Nick Drake article; I just checked.


 * Hey there, I saw your request for help and took a look. It appears that DASHBot removed its own tag here, a few hours ago. I dug a little deeper and found out that an editor removed the image from the article here. The bot saw it was no longer in use and posted the tag, but a few minutes after it did so, another editor restored the "Promo" image, thus de-orphaning it. I hope this solves your problem, but let me know if I can be of further assistance! -- McDoob  AU  93  20:57, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Thundermug (band)


A tag has been placed on Thundermug (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.allmusic.com/artist/thundermug-mn0001533452. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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. Cindy ( talk ) 07:44, 30 May 2013 (UTC)


 * I thought I'd add to what's been written above in order to further explain things and to give you some advice. When administrators delete articles that have been nominated for speedy deletion, we can't always tell whether the editor was well-intentioned or just trying to be a nuisance. Therefore our decisions are primarily based on what's on the page. Linking to a source doesn't give you the right to use their words - you still have to say it in your own words.


 * Another obstacle that many people encounter is notability, i.e. what makes them important enough to have an article. For bands, a chief indicator of notability is whether they've charted. From what I saw, Thundermug has had songs in the Canadian Top 50, and an album reach gold, so this would be very important to mention in the article. If you can find links to the official charts which show this, that would be even better.


 * If you want more time to work on the article before having it scrutinised, you can create an article in a subpage of your user page (like User:Dreadarthur/Thundermug (band). You can work on it in your leisure (adding references etc), and then move it to the main article space when it's ready.


 * Good luck. Harryboyles 16:38, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. red dog six (talk) 02:34, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Nick Drake Promo.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Nick Drake Promo.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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:31, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Nick Drake Promo.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Nick Drake Promo.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 19:27, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Blue Northern


A tag has been placed on Blue Northern 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 a band or musician, 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Non-free rationale for File:Jo Baker and Elvin Bishop, 1972.jpeg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Jo Baker and Elvin Bishop, 1972.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 00:36, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

 * 3) save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

Non-free rationale for File:Mike Harrison Smokestack Lightning Cover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Mike Harrison Smokestack Lightning Cover.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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 in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.
