Help with article for former Maryland lawmaker
Hi there, Marylandstater. As an active member of WikiProject Maryland, I wanted to see if you'd be interested in helping review an edit request for Stewart W. Bainum Jr. Mr. Bainum is a former state lawmaker in the Maryland House of Delegates and Maryland Senate, and has held leadership positions with Choice Hotels and HCR Manor Care, among other businesses. Via the edit request, I'm proposing a new draft to improve the structure of the article, fix inaccuracies, and include more details about Mr. Bainum's business and political careers. From news clippings provided by Mr. Bainum and from research on Lexis Nexis and HighBeam, I've been able to find a lot of older sources that provide information about his political career and development of the company that became Choice Hotels. In full disclosure, I have a financial COI, so I won't make any edits to the live article, and I'm reaching out to get feedback and help taking live appropriate changes from uninvolved editors such as yourself. It would be great if you're able to take a look, as any feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 18:07, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Following up here to let you know that another editor was able to review this draft and this is ✅. Thanks! 16912 Rhiannon (Talk &middot; COI) 21:36, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Delegate Margaret Peggy Murphy 1988.JPG
 Thanks for uploading File:Delegate Margaret Peggy Murphy 1988.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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:17, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Lamar Jackson
I see you nominated Lamar Jackson for GA status, and I would review it myself but I've contributed to the article significantly. Looking at it the only issue is that the personal life section needs expansion but otherwise meets GA criteria. Can you find a reviewer to start it?  CatcherStorm    talk   04:56, 17 February 2020 (UTC)


 * @ CatcherStorm    talk     At least one editor has raised the same question as you on Talk:Lamar Jackson page, I am not sure if any of those editors are doing the review.«Maryland stater » «reply » 15:21, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Lamar Jackson
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Lamar Jackson you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Lee Vilenski -- Lee Vilenski (talk) 09:41, 7 April 2020 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Lamar Jackson
The article Lamar Jackson you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Lamar Jackson for issues which need to be addressed.

Your GA nomination of Lamar Jackson
The article Lamar Jackson you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Lamar Jackson for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

File copyright problem with File:Scherod C. Barnes (2010).jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Scherod C. Barnes (2010).jpg. However, it is currently missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 22:52, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

Historical Markers List
Hello Marylandstater! I recently created List of Maryland state historical markers and its subpages, and I figured you might be interested in helping improving the list. There's plenty of redlinks that could be expanded. The "Image" column will ideally be used for images of the things talked about by the signs, not the signs themselves. If you have any other questions, let me know - Be sure to ping me though! AviationFreak 💬 23:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

I'm simply a casual reader/user of Wikipedia (and not signed in as I write this). Quick question -- any chance of adding a 2nd photo to your excellent article on Royal Parker?

File permission problem with File:City football 032.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:City football 032.jpg, which you've attributed to Ryan Murray. 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.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add permission 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.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. Here is a list of your uploads. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax &laquo;&brvbar;talk&brvbar;&raquo; 04:41, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:1joe howard.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:1joe howard.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free 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 non-free 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 non-free 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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. House Blaster </b>talk 23:47, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
