Please stop removing the image of the page without reason. The image is free use. If you keep doing it you'll get reported to the administrators for vandalism and WP:3RR violation. TeamGale 17:25, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

I work for Mr. Harold. He would rather use a different photo on his Wikipedia page. We know you'll understand. Thank you! Hasmonean


 * If you do work for Mr Harold then when you will have a picture and it's free use you can add it. Till then, please don't remove the already existent one. Thank you! TeamGale 18:17, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

The new photo has been added. Mr. Harold thanks you for your understanding and support Hasmonean


 * I've seen it but unfortunately is not free use. Just from my little experience from editing in Wikipedia for over a year...if you don't get an approval based on Wikipedia's guidelines the image will be deleted in a week or a little bit later. It's no matter of what Mr Harold (or in general every other person for their page) approves. A license is needed that won't be only for Wikipedia. I hope it won't get deleted but from my experience I think it will... TeamGale 18:28, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for the insight. We will investigate getting the appropriate license. In the interim, Mr. Harold asks that you please not repost the earlier photo if the current photo does indeed get deleted. Thank you again for both your advice and your understanding! Hasmonean


 * You are welcome. Is there a way I can contact you in private about the subject? A website or an e-mail? If you go to my homepage, on the left site you can find in the tools the option "email this user". You can send me there to avoid posting an email in public. Thank you.

 * As I've seen the image is nominated for deletion as I expected it would and I didn't get any mail from you. I just want to make myself clear. I am willing to help if I can and more than willing to respect Mr Harold's wishes. All I want is a verification that what you are claiming is true. But as at the moment, all I get is a person on the net who claims that is working for Mr Harold. I am not saying that you are lying but...everyone can claim that. A verification would be nice. But as things are right now, without the verification if/when the image is deleted, the previous one will be added back to the article. You removing it using as a reason that it's against Mr Harold's wishes doesn't apply on Wikipedia and if you keep doing it you'll end up blocked by the administrators. As I said, I am willing to help...but can't do it on my own. Thank you and I hope you also understand what I am saying. TeamGale 00:21, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your concern. We have read the Wikipedia guidelines and will replace the photo with one that meets those guidelines. Your help and support in this matter has been greatly appreciated by Mr. Harold and he again respectfully requests that you do not repost the previous photo. Thank you. Hasmonean

UPDATE: We have replaced the Lo Priore photo with one that is well within the usage guidelines. Once again, we thank you for your support and consideration on this matter. Hasmonean


 * I've seen it. Seems like this one won't get rejected :) Thank you for the new upload. I've been trying to add an image to the article for over a year...the one I had added was the best I could do. Thanks again for the picture and your understanding during the whole "process". TeamGale 17:57, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Scott Lowell has been reverted. Your edit here to Scott Lowell was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.twitter.com/scolo) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest). 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, constructive, 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) 18:13, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Harold photographed by Angela Lo Priore, Rome 2014.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Harold photographed by Angela Lo Priore, Rome 2014.jpeg. 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. Rotten regard 23:09, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
