No WP:RS and I could not find any additional via search

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}

Bach Choir (disambiguation)
editHi Pleriche, the purpose of disambiguation pages is to guide readers to existing information, not to provide that information, so DAB pages do not have references. I have removed the reference that you added and done some other clean-up per according to MOS:DAB. Leschnei (talk) 01:13, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
Image source problem with File:SABC at Rudolfinum.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:SABC at Rudolfinum.jpg.
This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.
If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F4 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:17, 22 November 2018 (UTC). 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. Ronhjones (Talk) 18:17, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you Ronhjones (Talk) for pointing that out. Not being a copyright expert I assumed/(hoped) that since the original image was a poster implicitly intended for the widest possible dissemination then my derivative work could at least be considered "fair use". However, I'm actively seeking clarification from the concert promoters and will amend the image and/or metadata in accordance with their response.Pleriche (talk) 21:36, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
- It's currently set up as a free image. You will have to change it for a fair-use (non-free) image. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information, it might fail on No.8 though. Non-free images cannot be used just to "decorate" an article. See also examples at Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Non-free_poster to see how a non free poster is set up. Ronhjones (Talk) 21:55, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
- Email sent to both the concert promoters named on the poster with no response over a week later. I'll send a chaser and if still no reply after a reasonable period I'll change to Fair Use.Pleriche (talk) 09:45, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
Sockpuppet investigation
editAn editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Pleriche, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
