Non-free rationale for File:Tank-400x620.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Tank-400x620.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. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 00:19, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of W.T. Henry
Hello, Hubdb39

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Dan arndt, and I thank you for your contributions.

 * 3) Click the  button.

Orphaned non-free image File:Tank-400x620.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Tank-400x620.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).

Tips when creating/expanding articles
Hi Hubdb39. I have a few tips for when you create or expand articles: (1) at the end of the prose content, a reference section should be added, which can be placed with the following code: ==References== (2) At the end of each paragraph, and sometimes within one, a citation should be added (add immediately following the period, leaving no space); each quote must have a citation following it. (3) After citing the sources using, to avoid bare URLs, you may wish to fill them using reFill or manually by (more at Template:Cite web). (4) Categories should be added at the very bottom of the page by adding. You can also add them with the tool HotCat. You can come to me or the teahouse if you have any questions. BTW your article on Lane College Dragons football I believe should be named Lane Dragons football. You can change the title by: copying all the content of the article you made, pasting it in the redirect "Lane Dragons football", and then redirecting "Lane College Dragons football" to that page by replacing everything with " #REDIRECT Lane Dragons football ".

Harding Bisons dormant football years of 1932–1958 moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Harding Bisons dormant football years of 1932–1958, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Right now, there is not enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to show notability. All sources are primary. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.  Onel 5969  TT me 19:34, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Hubdb39 here: Why are you questioning sources coming directly from the yearbook annuals of the university? It's from 80 to 90 years ago from small town Arkansas. I doubt the New York Times is going to weight in. It's absolutely verified with suitable sources, as is.

Harding seasons
Hi I created 2023 Harding Bisons football team today. It still needs work adding sourcing to independent, reliable sources. Any help you care to offer would be appreciaed. Cbl62 (talk) 05:55, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
 * On a related point, I noticed the article you created in 2021 on the 1926 Harding Bisons football team. The artice lacks any independent sourcing with WP:SIGCOV about the team. (The school's yearbooks do not qualify as WP:INDEPENDENT. If you can find any SIGCOV, it needs to be added to the article. Absent such coverage, the article may be deleted.) Cbl62 (talk) 05:58, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Many universities have entries from a century ago with their school yearbooks. It's two years old. It's fine. Hubdb39 (talk) 20:04, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
 * the 1926 season thread has been deleted already anyway Hubdb39 (talk) 20:07, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Well, not deleted... The reason for it being called "1926 Harding Bisons football team" is that the "coach" was a junior player, Clyde Matthews. They didn't have an actual hired coach, so he was the player-coach. Hubdb39 (talk) 02:15, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Congrats on your team advancing to the championship game. However, the fact that there are other deficient articles is no excuse. If SIGCOV from reliable independent sources cannot be found and added, 1926 Harding Bisons football team is likely to be sent to AfD and deleted. Cbl62 (talk) 02:32, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
