Hi Matt, just wanted to let you know that the latest photo you're using was not taken by BRANDON R. DWYER. When you get a chance please edit the comments section for the file. Photographer is "T.J. Rak." —Preceding unsigned comment added by J-Life (talk • contribs) 05:27, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Copyright violations
Please be aware that Wikipedia must be very cautious about possible copyright violations. With this edit to Elise Estrada it appears you copied the text from her MySpace page into the encyclopedia. Postings on MySpace are under copyright, from my understanding. Please see WP:COPYVIO for further information. Thanks, Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 19:23, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Hey Paul Erik,
 * I appreciate you bringing this to my attention, but the copy/paste was not a copyright violation by any means. As it was properly authorized, although the tone may need a bit improvement as mentioned.

 * Hi Matt and thanks for your message. I'm not sure what you mean by "properly authorized"...? The text is on her MySpace page, which is copyrighted, as indicated at the bottom; or is there something I am misunderstanding? Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 21:58, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Hey Paul Erik,
 * I am not sure if I am conversing correctly in these "talk" sections, since this is the first time I'm trying this so bare with me please. By "properly authorized" I mean it's authorized by herself and her record label who wanted that particular bio up, but as it does seem to be a bit promotional it will need some minor revisions to neutralize the tone!

 * Thanks for clarifying. Do keep in mind that Wikipedia is not intended to be used for promotional purposes (I think the text would need quite a major change in tone). Are you affiliated with her record label? We do have some conflict of interest guidelines here. Thanks. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 23:55, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
