Aston Motes
A tag has been placed on Aston Motes, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add  on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Pyrospirit Flames  Fire 00:13, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Knoxville-Spirit.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Knoxville-Spirit.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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 10:42, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

File:Knoxville-Casually.jpg
Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Claiming it is yours because you are nicknamed "SamuelBarber", or because you made the scan of Barber's music, does not work under law; his music is still under copyright. The page will be speedily deleted absent good evidence of permission from his estate, or something similar. This applies as well to any other scans of his music (generally the rules can be found in the copyright-related links above...) that may be found among your contributions.

(Of course, this makes try number 3. I could make a case for "persistent violator" right now.) Schissel | Sound the Note! 23:02, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of :File:Knoxville-Casually.jpg
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article File:Knoxville-Casually.jpg, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Obvious image copyright violation - editor did not create image; Samuel Barber died in 1981. At best, user SamuelBarber created the scan. Probably violates copyright law in most countries, given that it was written around 1947.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. (I put in the prod a few days ago, but you do not seem to have been around so haste seemed not to have been of the essence. Apologies for that - but not for suggesting that you either take this seriously, or wave the scan's hosting bye, of course.) Schissel | Sound the Note! 11:41, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
