Redirect of Winmysoul.com
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Winmysoul.com, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Winmysoul.com is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1). To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Winmysoul.com, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Winmysoultitle.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Winmysoultitle.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. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:42, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Roy_Blount.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Roy_Blount.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media 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 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 the fair use 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 fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use 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, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 15:20, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Thane Heins
A tag has been placed on Thane Heins, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Re: A1 Deletion

Your rollback request
Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Requests for permissions/Denied/September 2008. SoxBot X (talk) 15:30, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Rollback
After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing! Tiptoety talk 16:56, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback can be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback may be removed at any time.

Decatur High School image
Unless the building was torn down, the image you uploaded cannot use that license because the image is *repeatable* - Anyone from the Atlanta area can go and take a photo of Decatur High School. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:27, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Look, taking down the picture is not relevant to Assume good faith - I never assumed bad faith by taking down the picture. However an improper license is one of the criteria for Speedy_deletion - that can take place at any time, with no warning. That says nothing about the motivations of the person who posted it. You had good intentions by posting the image. It's just that an improper license = the image can go at any time. The page says "Non-free images or media with a clearly invalid fair-use tag (such as a tag on a photograph of a mascot) may be deleted at any time." However, if you live in the Atlanta area, you are welcome to drive or otherwise travel to the DHS site, take your own photograph, and use that. When you do so please upload it to the Commons. WhisperToMe (talk) 04:00, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

As for unreferenced stuff, I am allowed to add a cite tag, and I am also allowed to delete it on sight. Sometimes it depends on the type of claim. On many school articles I entirely remove uncited material. Remember that WP:V has this quote: "I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative 'I heard it somewhere' pseudo information is to be tagged with a 'needs a cite' tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced. This is true of all information, but it is particularly true of negative information about living persons." - So some information can be removed right away. WhisperToMe (talk) 04:08, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

You said: "So inquire - did I hear this somewhere? Can I source it? Is is damaging? The answers are no, I read it repeatably; yes, but not with a hyperlink; and not SLIGHTLY." - The reason why alumni lists that are unreferenced and other unreferenced lists of people will be going is because of a strictly enforced policy called BLP - This is a very important policy; it states that information on living people must be referenced. Removing the entire unreferenced list is an easy, immediate corrective action that satisfies BLP. You can then use the earlier revision to work your way up and source the list. While BLP technically doesn't apply to dead people, I still remove the whole list (or pick out referenced bits and keep them) as it is easier to do this. As for why remove first and source later, there is "the burden of proof is on those who wish to retain, restore, or undelete disputed material." and "Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons — whether the material is negative, positive, or just questionable — should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion, from Wikipedia articles, talk pages, user pages, and project space." (both from BLP)

You are free to upload a new photo at the filename Dhs front1.jpg, where the old photo was. Please upload the new image (that you took with your digital camera, or a properly licensed image from Flickr) to the commons as "Dhs front1.jpg" - then you can put "Dhs front1.jpg" in the image field of Decatur High School (Georgia). I do have access to the old revision of the image, as I am an administrator. The way to "fix" this is to upload a new image that complies with the policy.

"Your action is within policy, but left me less willing to contribute. " - Wslack, BLP and copyright policies are very important to Wikipedia. Please understand that immediate corrective actions like removing unreferenced alumni lists and deleting obviously improper licensed images are needed and justified. There is a saying that is called "It's better to light a candle than curse the darkness" WhisperToMe (talk) 04:54, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

BTW, as a repeat, ''do you live in the vicinity of Decatur High School? How soon can you use your own camera to photograph the campus''? WhisperToMe (talk) 05:01, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Update: Alright, look what I found: http://www.flickr.com/photos/wardomatic/149020529/ - If this person agrees to relicense this image to Creative Commons Sharealike, I can use this photo on Wikipedia! Since it is under a username it is likely that he took it. (BTW even if this is uploaded, you are welcome to upload your own photographs as well) WhisperToMe (talk) 05:09, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Update 2: The Flickr image was relicensed, so I uploaded it to the commons and now it is in the article. As I said, you are also welcome to take additional pictures if you want. WhisperToMe (talk) 05:45, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

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

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:06, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Your contributed article, 2015 Chapel Hill Shooting


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2015 Chapel Hill Shooting. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Chapel Hill Shooting 2015. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Chapel Hill Shooting 2015 – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions.  !dea4u  11:53, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Custom signature fix needed
Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error, specifically formatting tags that are in the wrong order.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.


 * Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
 * Remove anything in the text box.
 * Click the blue "" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
 * Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:
 * Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
 * Change the signature as shown below, or make other edits to make the signature appear how you want it to appear.
 * Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.

Current signature:

Fixed signature:
