Aces of ANSI Art

Looking back, it appears that the article was Proposed for Deletion with the rationale that the group was non-notable, and that the article lacked sources and was abandoned. That was in September 2008; the edit prior to this was in November 2006. No one objected to the deletion, so I deleted it without prejudice. If you like, I am happy to restore what little was there to your userspace, so you have a template to start with. The only source was a zip archive of examples from the group.

I don't know enough about the ANSI scene back then to judge notability in this case, but if you have sources that discuss the group in a neutral fashion, and if those sources are reliable, then I think an article might be worthwhile. So, let me know what you'd like to do and I'll take care of it. If you'd prefer a fresh start, that works too - your call. Best, UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 15:22, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

No problem - I'll restore it momentarily to User:Pipedreamergrey/Aces Draft. You don't have to hurry to fix it or delete - the original version sat for two years or more before someone was arsed to prod it. Best, UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 18:00, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Billi99.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Billi99.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:19, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Aces of ANSI Art

Hello. In March you added a citation to a book from the "Webster's Quotations" series published by Icon Group International to this article. Unfortunately, Icon Group International is not a reliable source - their books are computer-generated, with most of the text copied from Wikipedia (most entries have [WP] by them to indicate this). I'm removing a lot of similar references; many other editors have also been deceived by these sources. Another publisher that reuses Wikipedia articles is Alphascript Publishing.

Nomination of Common chemicals for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Common chemicals is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common chemicals until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Lmatt (talk) 20:12, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gotham (TV series)‎

The article Gotham (TV series)‎ has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
