Orphaned non-free image File:GravityBoots1984augustArchie&#39;sGirls331.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:GravityBoots1984augustArchie&. 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 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 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:33, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

message to BBB
first a public service inquiry here. At Talk:Men's rights movement/Article probation you had posted:
 * blocked for 24 hours for violating WP:1RR in the MRM section of Controversial Reddit communities.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:28, 27 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Your recent creation of a userpage for me has resulted in the category you've added to my userpage also being added to that talk page. I don't know if it might be possible to add a "noinclude" or full colon prior to the username to prevent that category transclusion disrupting the page?

Second: I noticed special:diff/863739039 and how User:RatatoskJones linked to Sockpuppet_investigations/Tyciol/Archive and am trying to understand why you are being more assertive in adding me to Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Tyciol whereas you merely added User:ScratchMarshall to Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of Tyciol. I acknowledge that you have suspicions based on interest overlap (is it uncommon for WWE fans to like weightlifting?) but I think it is useful to be more apprehensive about leaping to conclusions like this. What is the basis of your "proven"?

I appeal to you that I do not deserve to be blocked, as I am innocent and a good-willed Wikipedia contributor. Ranze (talk) 14:19, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of L.O.S.E.R.S.


The article L.O.S.E.R.S. has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Not a disambiguation page, both partial-title matches for redirects. Unsure if this minor fictional element should be merged into List of The Fairly OddParents characters or not."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 23:25, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Method Animation


A tag has been placed on Method Animation, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. 180.248.118.218 (talk) 00:23, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
