Image:BobWeir.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BobWeir.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Oden 07:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:ACDCQuartet.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:ACDCQuartet.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. MER-C 12:29, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Wright-Williams-Johnson.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Wright-Williams-Johnson.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 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.

Image:Rudd-Williams-Scott.jpg
I have tagged Image:Rudd-Williams-Scott.jpg as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale.

Image source problem with Image:Rudd-Evans-Scott.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rudd-Evans-Scott.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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. 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 Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 14:32, 26 August 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk  14:32, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Smokie.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Smokie.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mickeyfinntrex.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mickeyfinntrex.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 15:13, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

You were redirecting John Cafferty to "John Cafferty and the Brown Beaver Band." The name of the band is the "Beaver Brown Band." "Brown Beaver" is a bit vulgar, if you catch my meaning. If you were acting in good faith and simply got the name backwards, please accept my apologies. Not being able to communicate in real time sometimes causes misunderstandings like this. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 08:38, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Two's Up
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Two's Up, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. 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 its talk page.

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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Jefferson airplane.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Jefferson airplane.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 image 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 '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. Polly (Parrot) 14:07, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Badfinger1.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Badfinger1.jpg. 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 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.

Replaceable fair use Image:Allstarr.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Allstarr.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

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.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy.

In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

AfD nomination of Mark Matejka
I have nominated Mark Matejka, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Mark Matejka. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 01:32, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you
The article you created, Mark_Matejka maybe deleted from Wikipedia.

There is an ongoing debate about whether your article should be deleted here:
 * Articles for deletion/Mark_Matejka.

The faster your respond, the better chance the article you created can be saved. This is because deletion debates only stay open for a few days, and the first comments are usually the most important. There are several tools and other editors who can help you keep the page from being deleted forever:
 * 1) You can list the page up for deletion on Article Rescue Squadron. If you need help listing your page, add a comment on the Article Rescue Squadron talk page.
 * 2) You can request a mentor to help explain to you all of the complex rules that editors use to get a page deleted, here: Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond on the deletion page.
 * 3) When try to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. Don't let these acronyms intimidate you. Here is a list of your own acronyms you can use yourself: WP:Deletion debate acronyms which may support the page you created being kept. Acronyms in deletion debates are sometimes incorrectly used, or ignore rules or exceptions.
 * 4) You can merge the article into a larger or better established article on the same topic.

If your page is deleted, you still have many options available. Good luck! travb (talk) 03:31, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Robin (musician)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Robin (musician), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Lacks references or sources to prove the validity or importance of the person. This information could easily be merged into the main Mötley Crüe page if necessary, but I don't see the need.

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 its talk page.

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. magnius (talk) 11:32, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Donna Jean Godchaux Band
Greetings, Sk8punk3d288. I see that you've renamed the article "Donna Jean Godchaux Band with Jeff Mattson" to "Donna Jean Godchaux Band ". A rename is a big change for an article, and it's usually preferable to propose renames on the article talk page first. That gives multiple editors a chance to weigh in with their opinions and try to form a consensus. In this particular case, there was already a discussion about this -- see Talk:Donna Jean Godchaux Band. You'll see that the editors involved -- all two of us -- had agreed to leave the article name the way it was. You'll also see that I had somewhat mixed emotions about this, and in fact I don't really have a problem with the new article name. I'm only saying that it would have been better to discuss it first. By the way, thanks for your various contributions to articles related to the Grateful Dead. (If you reply here I will see what you say.) — Mudwater (Talk) 23:57, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:JeffersonStarship123.jpg)

Party Bike.jpg may be deleted soon if you don't take action
Thanks for uploading File:Party Bike.jpg. It's a really cool picture. But unfortunately, its licensing status is unclear.

You claim that the picture is not copyrighted. But AFAIK under U.S. law, every single picture that anyone takes automatically is copyrighted unless they take specific action to release the picture to the public domain.

Wikipedia is strict about image licensing so that anyone will be free to sell Wikipedia on CD-ROM, or to edit any picture, or to do certain other things, without needing to ask permission first.

Who pressed the shutter button and took the picture? If it is you, please edit the description and say so. Also remove the di-no permission tag.

If it's your friend who pressed the shutter, please ask him or her to email , stating his or her ownership of the material and his or her intention to release it to the public domain. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If neither of those things happen within seven days, your image will be deleted from Wikipedia.

Thanks again for uploading the picture, but make sure to do something about it -- and next time, if you're not sure if the licensing status on something is OK, please ask us before you upload it.

File source problem with File:Heartofgold.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Heartofgold.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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:00, 9 December 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --unforgettableid | talk 20:00, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Warning
Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Zsero (talk) 05:13, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The assertion was sourced to here, so I don't know that the charge of vandalism is necessarily correct. Wikipedia ends up looking stupid, but at least for now this might be the right assumption instead.  Cheers, Tomertalk  19:06, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * That is not even on the same planet as a reliable source. No assumption of good faith is warranted.  -- Zsero (talk) 19:08, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I am underinformed as to whether this user has a history of failure to understand WP:RS or other policies...which is what would warrant not extending AGF. A failure to abide by a policy one doesn't know or understand warrants AGF.  If you know more about Sk8punk3d288 than I do, I'll defer to your judgment.  Tomertalk  19:12, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * One doesn't need to know WP:RS or WP:BLP let alone WP:NOTNEWS to understand that that source is no more reliable than a ouija board, and that it is wrong to insert such significant news in an article without better confirmation. -- Zsero (talk) 19:15, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * After review of the source, I'm inclined to concur. Wow.  Tomertalk  19:18, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

 * No. I gave a level-3 warning, which is perhaps a touch more severe than was warranted, and the user hasn't edited since, so s/he is clearly not being disruptive.  Not even a block is called for, let alone a ban. -- Zsero (talk) 21:16, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations. Your misinformation managed to make world headlines, including a link at Drudge Report. You've been blocked for one week; I should block you indefinitely.

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Sk8punk3d288! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 7 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog.

In this case the criteria is defined in WP:BIO and/or [WP:MUSIC]]. The criteria needs to be demonstrated using reliable sources.  ttonyb (talk) 03:29, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Matt Hubbard, etc.
Greetings, Sk8punk3d288. The result of the AFD discussion for the Matt Hubbard article was to keep the article. Thanks for creating it. If you read my comments in the AFD discussion, I explained why the article was nominated for deletion, and how the issue was fixed.. You might want to take that under advisement the next time you create an article. If you have any questions or comments about any of this, let me know. (If you reply here I will see what you say.) — Mudwater (Talk) 00:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Citing refs
Please use the Cite button to reference links. It is so easy and fills in all the details.. I've noticed that you leave bare references behind. Bare references just appear as plain links in the reference section and happens when there's no title. Here's a video how to do it. It's loud so turn down your volume ;) -- and when you paste the link in the URL field, click the magnifying button and it will fill out all the pertinent details.

And also if the "Reception" section is just talking about reviews, name it "Critical reception" per the album style guide: WP: MOSALBUMS

And for future use, you can use this tool to convert bare references. It's fast and easy, just paste the wiki article title into the field and it will do it all for you.

Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of archiving. According to Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines; "Large talk pages become difficult to read, strain the limits of older browsers, and load slowly over slow internet connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." - this talk page is KB. See Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a bot. If you have any questions, place a notice on your talk page, or go to the help desk. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 16:45, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
