Melanie Chisholm

May I ask a dumb question: why do you keep removing free-use images from the Melanie Chisholm article? Especially when it appears the fair-use ones you keep trying to add to it run into problems. Remember, the Wikipedia guidelines regarding non-free content clearly state: "Non-free content is always replaced with a freer alternative if one of acceptable quality is available." (emphasis added) Tabercil 22:44, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

"I didn't removed any of pics." Who are you trying to kid? Look at these differences:

First removal

Second removal

Care to rephrase your answer? Tabercil 15:10, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't think you quite understand the issue here. You are removing valid free-use content. As I pointed out, Wikipedia's policy is to encourage free-use image use wherever possible. Tabercil 16:34, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

• Update. After further consideration, I have removed the CD single covers from the article on the basis stated in WP:MUSTARD: "Fair use images cannot be used purely for decoration.". Tabercil 17:27, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. However, please know that editors do not own articles and should respect the work of their fellow contributors on Melanie Chisholm. If you create or edit an article, know that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

• Hey even though I'm the one who uploaded the picture to Wikipedia in the first place, I'm not wedded it. I'm just trying to put another image into the article which will survive. Tabercil 17:59, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I would advise you to read WP:MUSTARD, which is the style guideline that covers articles about musicians. It clear states within: "Do not use album covers in discographies, as this is an unnecessary use of images and is not compatible with Wikipedia's fair use policy.". Thank you.

Melanie C discography

Hello. Thank you for editing the Melanie C discography article, but please use an edit summary when you remove information. Also, please do not removed large parts of the article (for example the lead section) without providing a reason. Thanks. -- Underneath-it-All 16:10, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

I have corrected the information in the lead section. Thank you for pointing it out. -- Underneath-it-All 16:20, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Thumbnail image size on Melanie's page

I would like to point out to you what it says in the Wikipedia Manual of Style regarding thumb nails: "Specifying the size of a thumb image is not recommended: without specifying a size the width will be what readers have specified in their user preferences, with a default of 180px (which applies for most readers)."

Red Girl Records (US record label)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Red Girl Records (US record label), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Red Girl Records. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— 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 07:38, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
