Turtle Creek Chorale - LGBT?
I'm curious as to why TCC's board of directors does not want TCC to be affilated with the Wikipedia LGBT Studies. Given TCC's very public profile as a gay men's organization (e.g. the recent PBS documentary), this seems an odd decision. Thanks. MusicMen 23:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

MusicMen, I apologize for speaking on behalf of the board. The TCC webmaster who is also on the board prefers that the TCC Wikipedia entry be about the subject and asked me to remove the colorful images. We are more than happy to include a link to the Wikipedia LGBT Studies.

The Turtle Creek Chorale is a gay men's chorus. The mission of the TCC is to entertain, educate, unite and uplift the audiences and members through music that is distinguished for its innovation, diversity and artistic excellence. TCC supports the LGBT community in everything it does and encourages participation in the Wikipedia LGBT Studies as far as a category and a link to the studies.

If there are any questions about this, please contact webmaster@turtlecreek.org. Michael T McGary 19:52, 31 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for this information. You should add the mission statement to the article :-) 20:42, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Proseline & citation suggestions for TCC article
Great to see the article growing. Some suggestions for you. Regarding the History section (copied with the webmaster's permission from TCC's website), it is in list-form but acts as proseline. Re-writing it in prose-form is more appropriate. You should also consider adding a reference citation regarding the source in the article itself and not just in the edit summary. Cheers!

File permission problem with File:TurtleCreekChoraleOfficialLogoBW300dpi.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:TurtleCreekChoraleOfficialLogoBW300dpi.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.

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 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jon Kolbert (talk) 07:08, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
