Disambiguation link notification for March 14
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Julian Christopher, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Timebomb and Beneath. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Replaceable fair use File:David Wilson, 12th President of Morgan State University.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:David Wilson, 12th President of Morgan State University.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair 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 fair 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 fair 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 (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)(Talk) 17:32, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

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).

Da Butt
Hi

I saw you turned Da Butt from a redirect into an article. I noticed that, unlike the version immediately before the redirect, it now cites a source and has more information. That said, you really need to cite multiple sources to get an article on a single to stick. I hope you will return and improve it. ~  ONUnicorn (Talk&#124;Contribs) problem solving 21:54, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Go-Go Swing Live album.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Go-Go Swing Live album.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:05, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

Ways to improve Taste of Your Love
Hi, I'm Hydronium Hydroxide. QzDaddy, thanks for creating Taste of Your Love!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Meets WP:NSONG criterion 1, but (per that SNG) is there more than passing coverage of the song, possibly offline, to justify an article separate from Livin' Large?
