Hey yeah sorry if i missed one as I'm still getting used to the "protocols" of how all this works, but I'm trying to make sure I hit the signature button. Do I need to do it next to every line that I edit or at the bottom of the page?

Disambiguation link notification for April 7

Hi. When you recently edited Aces High (song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Beckett (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Non-free rationale for File:The Angel & The Gambler Pucture Disc.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:The Angel & The Gambler Pucture Disc.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 on 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. Stefan2 (talk) 11:54, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Iron Maiden Single Prolwer, Japanese Cover.jpeg

A tag has been placed on File:Iron Maiden Single Prolwer, Japanese Cover.jpeg 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 that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Stefan2 (talk) 11:55, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for File:Man_On_The_Edge_Picture_Disc_CoverI_(UK).jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Man_On_The_Edge_Picture_Disc_CoverI_(UK).jpeg. Unfortunately, I think that you have not provided a proper rationale for using this image under "fair use". Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. Note that the image description page must include the exact name or a link to each article the image is used in and a separate rationale for each one. (If a link is used, automated processes may improperly add the related tag to the image. Please change the fair use template to refer to the exact name, if you see this warning.)

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 00:36, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Man albums

I have only looked at Man (Man album) so far and have no doubt these are all Good faith edits but several of your edits are contrary to Wikipedia policies or recommendations. Certain editors would just revert all the changes you made, but I have only reverted those contrary to policy, and would like to explain the reasons:-

Insertion of spaces before references. WP:CITEFOOT states "citation markers are normally placed after adjacent punctuation such as periods and commas. ... Note also that no space is added before the citation marker."
Change of Re-issues to Re-Release - I'm not sure the change of word adds anything, especially when the later CD had bonus tracks - but Release should not be capitalised.
Change of Michael Jones to Micky Jones and Roger Leonard to Deke Leonard - Michael and Roger are used on the original album (I have it on vinyl and CD) so were correct - Wikipedia uses the names current or credited at the time.
Change of instruments - Tha album states Ace played "bass guitar" and doees not credit Leonard with harp or percussion - if you have sources for these instruments, please cite them, but without a Reliable source the primary source (the album cover) takes precedent.
Good to meet another Man-fan and sorry for the lecture, but I thought it best to explain why, rather than just revert - Arjayay (talk) 18:15, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

PS - Jules' surname is Gough not Cough as seen here[1]

I note you have added sections to the early Man albums talk pages, seeking other peoples opinions, and I am certainly in favour of all the pages being more consistent in terms of layout.

You have suggested Micky Jones being just that, not Michael, and Deke Leonard never going by Roger, "as this in my opinion creates an inconsistency that would confuse those who don't know their the same people when reading them for the first time". As explained above, Wikipedia uses artists names as they were published at the time. Wikipedia is not a democracy, and has evolved (probably rather too many) rules in order to standardise presentation, across all its articles, so it is not a question of "peoples reactions/agreement/disagreement" as to the names used in these particular articles.

Roger Leonard is "pipe-linked" to the Deke Leonard article, which should avoid confusion, whilst most people understand that Michael, Mickey and Micky are the same. Conversely, if someone has the album and looks up the article, seeing Deke in the article and Roger on the album sleeve is confusing, and is likely to be "corrected" regularly. I'm sorry to seem so bureaucratic, but I have seen proposals to deviate from the standard come up regularly, and they are always defeated in the end - having wasted a lot of time and effort.

If you really want a challenge - you could start the article on Micky Jones - although I started the articles on Deke Leonard, Malcolm Morley, Phil Ryan, Help Yourself and a number of other Man associated artists, I have always avoided Micky - he was too much of a hero to me for me to be subjective. The other problem is that he is so integral with Man that his article could end up too similar.

Keep on crinting - Arjayay (talk) 08:51, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
