A tag has been placed on File:Portrait of Kent Hovind.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

The permission given is incompatible with a CC BY-SA 3.0 license

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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.

Your recent editing history at Kent Hovind shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You realize that Hovind saying he uses scientific evidence is useless as a source, right? We need actual mainstream scientists saying that. --NeilN talk to me 16:25, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

The lead is a summary of the article. So long as the sources are in the main body of the article, they don't need to be repeated in the summary. Dougweller (talk) 16:37, 22 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Final warning

edit

You are engaged in advocacy of a fringe point of view at Kent Hovind. This is out of line with our policies. Several people have pointed out to you that Wikipedia is a reality-based project and does not reflect minority religious dogmas as fact. If you continue as you are, then you will be blocked from editing. Guy (Help!) 08:37, 28 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Jacob, I am also one of the people removing your links to the Kent Hovind page. Kent Hovind has never provided scientific evidence for his claims. The only evidence he has ever produced is biblical references and pseudoscience nonsense. Please consult WP:RS for what is and what is not a reliable source. PS: Youtube is not a reliable source.

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Kent Hovind. That was not merely 'fixing grammar' You are editing against consensus, STOP IT NOW. Dbrodbeck (talk) 12:25, 30 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Jacob to address you question, in the Ken Hovind article itself, here:Kent_Hovind#Criticism_from_creationists and here:Kent_Hovind#Criticism_from_creationists are all the claims with citations and reliable sources and there is no scientific evidence to any of his claims. CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 13:49, 30 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
Jacob, have you read ANY of the other warnings on your talk page? You are engaging in an edit war. You have been warned MULTIPLE times. If you wish to make an edit on Kent Hovind's page, you MUST discuss it on Kent Hovind's talk page BEFORE. End of story. CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 13:49, 30 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Portrait of Kent Hovind.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Portrait of Kent Hovind.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia: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. NeilN talk to me 19:10, 5 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Portrait of Kent Hovind.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Portrait of Kent Hovind.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:21, 7 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Kent Hovind snaphot.png

edit
 

A tag has been placed on File:Kent Hovind snaphot.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted content borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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.
