Thanks for uploading File:EverythingButtheGirl album comver.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore will not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used once again.
  • If you received this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Rhulshof. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Thurgood Marshall, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 21:24, 6 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your edit to the "More of the Monkees" Page

edit

Would you mind explaining why you did this? There was nothing harmful about that information in any way, nor was there anything that actually needed to be removed. Sourced information shouldn't be removed from articles without a valid explanation. Also you undid my edit without an explanation. When a user undoes another user's edits without explaining why they undid them, it indicates that they think the edits the other user made were vandalism or otherwise bad faith edits, which wasn't the case. Also it is hinted on several sites that the song "She" was co-written by Jeff Barry, Angelo Badalamenti, and Marianne Faithfull, regardless whether or not the information is or isn't correct. That's why the information was sourced in the first place. There are valid reasons the information has been kept on the page. Because it has been hinted in various places that those three other songwriters wrote the song when they didn't. So the information needed to be sourced as a result, because if the information is removed, then people wouldn't know that those three songwriters didn't actually write the song, and thus they may end up re-adding the same piece of information back to the page, like it was done a couple of years ago. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 00:11, 11 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
