If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Bobby Watson

Hello Poekneegurl, I saw your message for Josve05a. That's a rather strange place to leave a message; Josve05a's talk page is at User talk:Josve05a. Anyway, the draft on Bobby Watson the bassist still exists, but it does not cite any relible sources and does not establish that Watson is notable enough to be the subject of an encyclopedia article of his own. If his association with Rufus is his sole claim to notability, covering him within the band article seems more appropriate. Right now practically all the draft's content is unverifiable. If you know of reliable sources such as newspapers or music magazines that cover Watson in some detail, not just as a member of Rufus, you're welcome to improve the draft, of course.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hal Jackson, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page KGFJ.

File permission problem with File:Sheila Frazier Atchison.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Sheila Frazier Atchison.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Diannaa (talk) 02:50, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Native SON (American Band)

Hello Poekneegurl. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Native SON".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Native SON (American Band)}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 13:25, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
