Briony Price
A tag has been placed on Briony Price, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Briony Price is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Briony Price. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template  to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. -- Merope 17:24, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Concerning the merit and notability of the Briony Price page, I only constructed it in response to other contestants in the show having wiki pages that weren't tagged, but I can see how stuff needs to be a bit notable to be worth including. (links from the HDYSAPLM page) Apparently (reading things from people in the theatre business) any contestants that got into the final 20 have careers waiting for them in the theatre, so I would contest that in the future they may become much more notable.

Thanks for the message. Admittedly, I am in the U.S. and don't know much about this particular reality programme, but it seems to me that an article on one contestant would be better served by merging the slim content into the article about the show itself. I will spend some time reviewing the notability policies and the pages of other contestants to see if there's any sort of consistency. As for future notability, that might certainly be the case for a number of the contestants but Wikipedia is not a crystal ball--notability should be established before the article is created, not after. Please understand that I was not targeting your page directly; I just came across it when doing New Page patrol. Thank you for your contributions, and happy editing! -- Merope 00:57, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Briony has just finished shooting her first Feature Film, which may be a good enough reason for her to have her own page! It's called Eden Burning, by production company Toaster Productions, and she plays the lead character, Evelyn. The cast and crew members have their own page with photos etc. Lucyfa 13:24, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Briony1.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Briony1.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Thanks!
Hello! Thank you for your kind words and barnstar! ... or so it seems! It's always annoying when it happens, isn't it? It irks me sometimes when I get beaten by a bot, but at least I know someone else cares too. I think I will stop patrolling now, hope you can revert some more now! See you around.

 * Thanks so much for reverting vandalism on my page! I didn't even notice it until I checked history! Phgao 05:19, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Copyrighted images on userboxes
A non-free image was recently removed from one or more of your userboxes. Please be advised that Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Wikipedia policy does not allow templates (which includes userboxes) or user pages to contain any copyrighted content not under a free license; so, for example, claims under "fair use" are explicitly rejected. This clause is to be interpreted strictly and without exception, for legal reasons. You can research Wikipedia's non-free content policy for more details.

I hope this does not discourage you from creating more userboxes; your contributions to Wikipedia are greatly appreciated. For images and other media that are freely available for use in userpages and userboxes, check out Wikimedia Commons. Thank you. -Malkinann 13:08, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
