Speedy deletion nomination of Confused Matthew
A tag has been placed on Confused Matthew requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, 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. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia 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. Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 22:29, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Melvin Rees
Please do not make statements attacking people or groups of people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. Pilif12p : Yo  03:24, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

You have to cite your sources when you add content like this. I will help if you don't know how but please note the manner I have already cited two books in the article, the link I provided on the talk page to WP:CITE, and see also Referencing for beginners. Sensitive material that can affect these people living relatives must be cited at the time it is added (and note that the the article would have properly been deleted immediately if I had not already added sources in declining the speedy deletion request. I see that you placed in the article that he died in 1995. Do you have a source for this? I ask because the first source I used, published in 2004, said that he was currently (i.e., as of 2004) an inmate in a specific prison.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 04:02, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, when you add back the content I removed, do your best to add the citation. It can be as simple as this: place these tags after each part of the text you add, and I will fix it up afterwards (though I am going to bed relatively soon, so it might not be immediate). I am going to upload a photograph of him though for the infobox in a few moments. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 04:12, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I see you tried to use the form of multiple reference I did but got slightly lost. You just missed one part. If you're using a reference once, you can just use . But if you want to use the same reference again, you have to give the reference a name—I usually use the last name of the author but you can use anything—the first use is   and the next umpteen times you want to use it you just use the first part with a closing slash like so:  .

Fair use rationale for File:Paul Crouch 2.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Paul Crouch 2.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. dave pape (talk) 01:01, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Neutral point of view
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Trinity Broadcasting Network. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  17:24, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Please respect the contribution of other editors and stop deleting wide scale content that is sourced, historical and neutral.
It is not Wikipedia's best practices for an editor to delete an existing article (all or in part), which is accurate, well sourced, and the result of a collaborative effort by multiple editors over time. If you want to add factual, sourced information you may do so, but Tendentious repetitive attempts to insert or delete content or behavior that tends to frustrate proper editorial processes and discussions is prohibited, as is disruptive editing that totally disregards the content in an article that is already established and has been reviewed and approved by other editors. Editor Scoutstr295, please only add factual information to the Trinity Broadcasting Network article. Please respect the contribution of other editors and stop deleting major sections of this article.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Trinity Broadcasting Network. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Kudpung (talk) 22:09, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Paul Crouch 2.png
 Thanks for uploading File:Paul Crouch 2.png. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

License tagging for File:AlJazeeraEgypt.png
Thanks for uploading File:AlJazeeraEgypt.png. 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) 17:06, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Botha.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Botha.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File source problem with File:Wall-Street-1.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Wall-Street-1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Dream out loud (talk) 07:06, 2 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Can you link the image source to the page on which the image is featured, not just the image itself? This is important to make sure that is satisfies Wikipedia's copyright policies. – Dream out loud  (talk) 05:28, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:EugeneDeKock.png.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

File permission problem with File:JodonRomero.png
Thanks for uploading File:JodonRomero.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 , 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 .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as 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 the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:50, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Jodon F. Romero
Hello, Scoutstr295,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Jodon F. Romero should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Jodon F. Romero.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

File source problem with File:GeorgeLincolnRockwell.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:GeorgeLincolnRockwell.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 16:35, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

RE: Sons of Anarchy
Hi Scoutstr295. Just a "heads up" and a request. I've rolled back your recent edits to the SOA article because there seemed to be no justification I could see under Wiki guidelines and no explanation of why or any other type of edit summary. The info you removed seemed properly ref'd and relevant to the history of the show and the fictional SAMCRO. In the future if you could make sure to provide even a brief explanation in the edit summary it would be much appreciated by myself and your other fellow editors. Thanks and have a great Wiki kind of day! Sector001 (talk) 14:18, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. If I get a chance soon I will try to pare down the article a smidge without taking out quite so much that an average reader might want to know. Have a good one, and SAMCRO 4-Ever! Sector001 (talk) 13:40, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:DavidHeadleyMumbai.png)
Thanks for uploading File:DavidHeadleyMumbai.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box.

Non-free rationale for File:SouthAfricanPoliceFlag.gif

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Replaceable fair use File:GeorgeLincolnRockwell.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:GeorgeLincolnRockwell.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. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:12, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
