First Fallen doesn't have enough coverage to make it notable. It will be, but not today. Second, you move the original and correctly named article three times and now it's at a location where it's got the wrong name. Stop editing and wait for reviews to come out, then start adding content--not before.'' Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:11, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Fallen, an album cover art used by the band, Stryper.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Fallen, an album cover art used by the band, Stryper.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 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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:42, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Fallen, the 12th album by Stryper.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:Fallen, the 12th album by Stryper.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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 removed 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.

Fallen notable
You can recreate the article, per Cross Rhythms, and two reviews from The Phantom Tollbooth from Bert Saraco and Derek Walker.The Cross Bearer (talk) 05:07, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
 * As an aside, I would say use File:Fallen by Stryper.jpg for the cover art from Loudwire.The Cross Bearer (talk) 05:10, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Formatting
I don't mind you adding content, but when you do so in an unsupported way, it's a problem. See WP:V and WP:RS. When you don't follow the various manuals of style (the one that bugged me with your most recent edit was MOS:AMP), it's a problem. The only source for Second Coming, http://www.allmusic.com/album/second-coming-mw0002483458, indicates a release date of March 25, 2013. Changing it to March 26 without a source is a problem. Adding aliases of Roxx Regime doesn't help. So, for the record, I'm not trying to pick on you, just make sure your edits comply with Wikipedia standards. In my first two years of editing, I made lots of mistakes. When I was given the chance to learn, I took it. Keep up the good work! Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:09, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Michael Sweet. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. ''The reference does not support the name and so the album name should be moved after the existing reference and the album name does need a reference. Please don't remove templates again, especially without explaining why.'' Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:05, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Multiple speedy deletion nominations


A tag has been placed on multiple images requesting that they be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the files appear to be a blatant copyright infringement.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think these pages should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page(s) 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 removed 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.
