Proposed deletion of Amy Trask


The article Amy Trask 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 when you are ready to add one. Toddst1 (talk) 15:27, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of GirlSense


A tag has been placed on GirlSense 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, 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 hang-on 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. 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. Paste Let’s have a chat. 17:40, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

New articles
It's probably a good idea to start new articles in User:Jjohn650201/Sandbox so you can get them in shape and not speedily deleted. Toddst1 (talk) 17:57, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Adding a Picture Work?
Do i have to own the photo? what if i find a photo under the public domain without copyright?. Jjohn650201 (talk) 20:50, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * This is a regrettably complex area. Start with Uploading images andImage use policy and File copyright tags. JohnCD (talk) 21:06, 31 October 2010 (UTC)


 * (e/c) If you find a public domain photograph, or for that matter a photograph that is under a free-license, then you can upload them and they do not need to come from you, although mechanically, you will need to save the photo to your computer in order to do the actual upload. However, please note that just because you don't see a copyright tag or notice associated with a photograph does not mean it is automatically in the public domain. In fact, images are presumed to copyrighted unless you can show otherwise, not the other way around. One useful rule of thumb is that if a photograph was published in the United States prior to 1923 it is public domain. If you do find a PD photo or one under a free license, you should upload it to the Wikimedia Commons instead of here, so that all projects have access to the image (sign up). You might be better off asking here or maybe at Media copyright questions once you actually have found an image, to get a second opinion about its copyright status. Please also read Wikipedia's image use policy for more general information. I hope this helps.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 21:07, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
