Your strange posting to User talk:Texas1
Can you explain this, please? -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs)  01:37, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

It is a part of a storyline, he wasnt really killed. ~ Rangeley ( talk ) 01:37, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Richard Hartnett
Richard Hartnett has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this person might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Notability (people) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" template, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but if an editor is still not satisfied that it meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

WFLA-TV
Could you explain why you removed WFLA-TV's logo from that article? The fact that it is copyrighted isn't quite enough — non-free images such as the WFLA logo can be used on Wikipedia because of fair use. -- WC  Quidditch  &#9742;   &#9998;  03:20, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Frankie Silvestri
Frankie Silvestri, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Frankie Silvestri satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Frankie Silvestri and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit the content of Frankie Silvestri during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. ElKevbo 17:20, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Sherman Hemsley and the Cold War quote
Please find a source for that statement. To be honest, even if true, I don't think it is encyclopedic, especially since I can find no source for it anywhere. Since no source can be found, I think it should be removed.

I started a discussion on the talk:Sherman Hemsley if you have any further comment, please post there, so the community can become involved. Thanks. 72.130.170.225 04:18, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Regarding false accusations on my talk page
Please refrain from vandalizing my talk page with borderline slanderous remarks as you did here. While some of your concerns are legitimate, the vast majority are untrue and unkind. Please make stronger attempts at verifying sources. Thank you. Morthanley (talk) 00:16, 8 January 2008 (UTC)


 * The only item I added was the joke1 template. My edit also shifted previous warnings into the same section, per the recommended formatting for such warnings; but I only added joke1.  It was added because of this edit, which added a number of absurd examples and declared my removal of them as vandalism.  As you may be aware, these absurd examples have been an ongoing problem with this article for awhile now.  More recently, anons have been using edit summaries which sound like they are on the "good" side of removing such examples; whereas they are actually adding them back in.  From your edit alone, I had assumed you were an anon which registered an account as the next step to tricking us.  After posting the joke1 warning, I looked through your contributions and found that you are relatively established, but I still fell short as to the reason for your revert.  I am not sure what exactly the cause of this was, but if it was mere confusion: I apologise for any misunderstanding, but ask that you please take more care in what you revert as vandalism.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Silvestrimugshot.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Silvestrimugshot.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Iamunknown 02:20, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Image:Utbtmap.jpg listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Utbtmap.jpg, has been listed at Images and media for deletion. Please see the to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Sylvestrimugshot.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Sylvestrimugshot.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 11:40, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article, such as some of the edits you have made to Nick Hogan, must include proper reliable sources. Thank you. -- Satori Son 05:07, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits. Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want.   -- Bossi  ( talk • gallery • contrib ) 21:25, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Scotty's Hardware
A tag has been placed on Scotty's Hardware 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 a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.  - Jameson L. Tai   talk ♦  contribs  17:34, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * We get dozens of articles a day about nonnotable local businesses -- they all get deleted per WP:CORP. If Scotty's was a notable business per WP:CORP, as shown by reliable independent sources (see WP:V), then feel free to repost.  But the article, as posted, didn't indicate notability.

Hi. Thanks for uploading Image:Curtis hixon.jpg. Where is it from-- source, photographer or website? Please add info. Thanks! -- Infrogmation (talk) 12:37, 10 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay, it is availible from the Florida State Archives http://www.floridamemory.com/ as C650040  Photo by Hackett, 1965. No indication of it being a Federal work (as it was tagged) nor free licensed, clear copyright notice on page, so it has been deleted. If you have additional information showing this was a free licensed Federal work, image may be undeleted. Thank you for your attention. -- Infrogmation (talk) 00:59, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
