Orphaned non-free media (Image:Stephen Helfer.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Stephen Helfer.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 20:52, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He was waived and it has been reported by numerous reliable sources. It's not like he can be pulled off waivers and he is no longer a member of the Bills. On top of this, it is not always reported when someone clears waivers, unless they were claimed. So, the move is official and he is a free agent (well, on waivers, but since he has no team, he is listed as a free agent). Cheers,--Giants27(T|C) 19:47, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While that may be true, the "regular" editors of roster templates and player pages here have never followed this "after 4PM thing" because right now, all transactions are official once announced, which means that no matter the deadline, it has gone through. So, please cease reverting articles because it is not after 4PM ET, unless there is a source saying it hasn't happened. If numerous reliable sources are reporting something as done, it is done.--Giants27(T|C) 20:12, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. He was waived, thus he was placed on waivers, so he is no longer a member of the Bills, so based on your argument of being accurate, he should be listed as being on waivers, but since we don't do that, he is listed as being as a free agent, which is far more accurate than listing him as a Bill. I also never said that he cleared waivers, but rather that he was waived. There is no listing that works for describing this in the infobox, other than "Free Agent". Plus, as I said, reliable sources have said that he was waived, not that he cleared waivers, but that he was waived, which is true.--Giants27(T|C) 20:33, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
