Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Pink (singer). When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history.

File:Christina Aguilera Bionic.jpg
Hi Strippedx,

Thanks for your contributions, but I just deleted this image as an unambiguous copyright infringement. Please note that Wikipedia has very strict requirements for non-free media, and this one fell short. For your reference, I found a smaller version of the file on http://www.christinaaguilera.com/us/official-gallery/bionic; since this is clearly a professional photo created for promotional use, it is covered by copyright and therefore unsuitable for Wikipedia.

I'll put a template on your page shortly with some information you may find useful. Thanks again, and happy editing! -- jonny - m t  10:26, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Christina Aguilera
I reverted some of your edits to Christina Aguilera. I appreciate you must be a fan :) but there are important guidelines we employ here on the wiki. Hope that makes sense! --Errant Tmorton166(Talk) 16:45, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Please try to keep edits "encyclopaedic"; calling Christina Aguilera a "mega star" may be true in your opinion, but it counts as a point of view - which is generally discouraged here.
 * In terms of the image you added; it is a non-free image protected by copyrights. Although it is possible to use such images here on Wikipedia we can only really do so when *no free alternative* exists. As a free alternative does exist in this case we should always use that.

Hi Strippedx,

I just stopped in to see how things are going, and I noticed you uploaded File:Christina aguilera bionic004.jpg. I appreciate that you tagged it as a copyrighted image, but please note that the use of non-free images on Wikipedia is very restricted. Specifically, we can only use images that meet the criteria outlined on this linked policy page; since this excludes images where a free image can be created (i.e., where a free picture can be taken of a living person), this means the file you uploaded will not qualify.

When you have a chance, please take a few minutes to go through the non-free content criteria. I also encourage you to ask any questions you may have at our help desk. Thanks! -- jonny - m t  15:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
