Steve Peters (politician)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Steve Peters (politician), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Steve Peters. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 02:19, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

I undid my redirect to Steve Peters to allow you to finish your work. Farside6 (talk) 02:24, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Steve Peters
I am afraid you went about the creation of the Steve Peters disambig page the wrong way. The page about the politician was there first with an edit history and talk page. You should have created Steve Peters (disambiguation) as the disambig page, rather than copy and paste the original page to Steve Peters (politician). Don't try to undo it -- that's a job for an admin. Thanks. – ukexpat (talk) 02:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * This has now been fixed. Please do not rename pages by copying and pasting. Thank you. – ukexpat (talk) 03:47, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
Please be aware of the guidelines regarding editing articles with which you have a conflict of interest. I suspect this due to your limited field of editing. Smartse (talk) 20:17, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

No problem. I'm pretty much taking a hands-off approach to everything with a possible COI at this point. :) vpisteve (talk) 23:11, 23 May 2009 (UTC)


 * That's good to hear. Smartse (talk) 16:56, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Transmedia storytelling
It is a good thing you are keeping your eye on the article. Indeed, "Some transmedia architects would trace transmedia origins to the Parables of Jesus" is ROTFL. However another reference you deleted looks like a serious work. Do you have any specific objections to this source? -M.Altenmann >t 01:00, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Never mind. I see it myself now. -M.Altenmann >t 01:03, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

The file File:Elan lee tombstone.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "unused, low-res, no obvious use"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Unspecified source/license for File:AlisonNorrington.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:AlisonNorrington.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time after the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like (to release all rights),  (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * File copyright tags

This is an automated notice by MifterBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Media copyright questions. NOTE: Once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. --MifterBot (Talk • Contribs • Owner) 23:00, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:AlisonNorrington.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:AlisonNorrington.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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 in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 23:40, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:AlisonNorrington.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:AlisonNorrington.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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 19:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
