Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Thewarisoverthebestofphilochs.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Thewarisoverthebestofphilochs.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Where on earth did you get the cover picture?!?

I have the songs on MP3, and I created the article, but I've never seen a picture of the record before. LOL. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 03:24, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Bestofthepayolas.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Bestofthepayolas.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 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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 21:35, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Peace Sign (Paul Hyde album), did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. geeoharee (talk) 09:55, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Likewise

I hold no ill will towards you either. I apologize if I myself came off as rather snippy. I'm also a huge Beatles fan, although I'm in the latest generation and did not have the vinyl experience others had. Any and all input is welcome in discussions; I've posted links to the discussion in relevant forums elsewhere, and will hopefully attract new points of view as well. I'm more than happy to put this behind us and I do not care if the discussion closes with consensus to not merge; I look forward to new arguments for not merging. God bless.

Need your input for a dispute resolution on the Bill Cosby article

Hello, I noticed that you had some comments on the Bill Cosby talk page and was hoping you could help us resolve an issue. Please see the section titled "Discussion: Should the lead sentence mention the sexual assault accusations?". Thanks! Hamsterlopithecus (talk) 03:50, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

This thread is forum shopping and IDHT behavior. Hamster totally reordered talk page sections, placing them in opposite order and thus changing the meaning and progression. They also changed headings made by others, and also created an improperly formed RfC to hijack the discussion. All is now restored. We had a consensus until this disruption occurred. This is massive IDHT behavior, and this thread should be closed. Such behavior should not be rewarded. Hamster should be blocked for this. -- {{u|BullRangifer}} {Talk} 20:00, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
