File source problem with File:Steve-Byrne-005.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Steve-Byrne-005.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. 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 per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:40, 11 April 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. 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 or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 20:40, 11 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Charlie Sheen. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. --Bbb23 (talk) 00:01, 29 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Charlie Sheen, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. The cited sources have to support the assertion.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:02, 12 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for File:Fez (That '70s Show).jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Fez (That '70s Show).jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:05, 18 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Spammy refs (http://spam.losangelescriminaldefenseattorneyblog.com)

Please read our WP:Reliable sources policy in regards to references; sites like the one above are not appropriate as references. Thanks, OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:33, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:44, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning; the next time you insert a spam link, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.

You have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for a period of 1 week as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our policies concerning neutral point of view and biographies of living persons will not be tolerated.

Willie Nelson

edit

Hi, the titles tand other sections that were merged/erased or the deletion of trivia was made to improve the flow of the prose in the article and to look like an encyclopedic article. It is currently ongoing a GAC. Please, before making any of those changes discuss them on the review page. Thanks. --GDuwenTell me! 00:21, 7 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Willie Nelson

edit

Your edits to the Willie Nelson article are unhelpful. You have been reverted several times, and you have been asked to raise any issues you have on the talkpage of the article. Disagreements about the best way to proceed on Wikipedia are quite common. The best way to resolve disagreements is through discussion. Continuing to restore the multiple sub-headings to the three paragraph Personal life section without putting forward your rationale as to why you feel this is more useful, is not going to achieve you anything, and may result in other editors staring to form a negative impression of you. I can see that this issue is important to you, by your determination to keep restoring the sub-sections. Are you able to explain why you feel that multiple sub-headings are better than one main heading? You might have a good point to make, but we'll never find out unless you communicate.

Non-Free rationale for File:Charisma carpenter playboy.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Charisma carpenter playboy.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.

If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free 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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. 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. Eeekster (talk) 03:56, 28 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Your addition to Arnold Schwarzenegger has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 23:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

July 2011

edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at Willie Nelson, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason.

Despite requests, you continue to revert the Willie Nelson article to your preferred condition. A detailed explanation has been provided on the talkpage as to why your edits are against guidelines and policy, but you have chosen to ignore this. Three different editors have undone your reverts. If you continue to behave against guideline, policy, consensus and the general spirit of Wikipedia you will find yourself indefinitely blocked. From reading your talkpage it appears that your edits on Wikipedia are unwanted. Please heed these warnings and either change your attitude so that you are more collegiate, accommodating, communicative, and you follow advice, requests and guidelines, or remove yourself entirely from this project as something that is not suitable for you.

Orphaned non-free image File:Charisma carpenter playboy.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Charisma carpenter playboy.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 not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.


Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 06:24, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of User:RoadHouse

edit
 

A tag has been placed on User:RoadHouse requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it contains a gallery in the userspace which consist chiefly of fair use or non-free images. For legal reasons, we cannot allow non-free and copyrighted images to be used on user pages, and user pages containing galleries of such images may be eligible for speedy deletion.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
