File permission problem with File:Photo of the inside of the Groucho Club.png
Thanks for uploading File:Photo of the inside of the Groucho Club.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 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.

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. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 22:29, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Re: SNES-CD
Hi Mattl, thanks for the message. I see that the resources you cite are only forums, which of course we can't use as reliable sources. Also, the only source I've seen mentioning the Nintendo Disc format mentions it as something Nintendo proposed while working with Sony, not Philips. --Jtalledo (talk) 10:31, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:SuperDisc BIOS screenshot.png
 Thanks for uploading File:SuperDisc BIOS screenshot.png. 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.

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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:30, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

PROD The Voltarol Years
Hi,

Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. I wanted to point out the fact that any article put up o Wikipedia must be well-sourced per WP:RS not withstanding of if it's a new release. If it truly meets notability guidelines then it should have enough press to be integrated. Regards.

Margot Comstock moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Margot Comstock, is not suitable as written to remain published. It is unreferenced. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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.
