Unspecified source for Image:MSF05.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:MSF05.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:42, 7 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU ≈ talk 15:42, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello ,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, Ja A. Jahannes, may be copied from http://www.amazon.com/Truthfeasting-Ja-A-Jahannes/dp/0865431914. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 22:18, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

I'm certain because I wrote the information for amazon on Ja A. Jahannes

Speedy deletion nomination of Ja A. Jahannes


A tag has been placed on Ja A. Jahannes, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,. Clicking that button 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. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Bagheera (talk) 22:20, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. I deleted your recent article because it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references. As a matter of policy, all biographies of living people will be deleted if they do not have references. Note that the fact that he is mentioned in other Wikipedia articles does not make him notable, Wikipedia is not acceptable as a reliable source.

 * It was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: He is a frequent writer and columnist for numerous publications... His many honors and awards... He has received grants from... His work also appears in a number of anthologies... twelve plays, most notably... He has also written a collection of essays, an oratorio, two symphony librettos, two opera librettos, a song cycle, and lyrics for over 100 songs... Dr. Jahannes has directed many theatre and performance productions, touring in the U. S. and abroad... A frequent guest on radio and television talk shows... 
 * He is always referred to as "Dr", more puffery, he wasn't born with a PhD &mdash; I note that this practice even extends to his relatives. It's basically his CV, no indication that anyone has ever disagreed with his views.
 * The article was created in a single edit without wikilinks or references, and looks as if was copied and pasted from an unknown and possibly copyrighted source.
 * You have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. TIf, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that you are notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

File permission problem with File:Mayor05.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Mayor05.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
