Speedy deletion nomination of Valco (disambiguation)

A tag has been placed on Valco (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either

disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi George, for the reasons described above, I deleted the page. If you're planning to create another page named Valco (descriptive thing of some kind), we still wouldn't need a disambiguation page; just a hatnote at the top of Valco. If I've misunderstood what you're doing here, or if you would like further explanation, just ask me. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:57, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! That's ok, and I completley understand while you have deleted the page! I just don't know what hashnotes were, how to use them if you can point me in the right direction, that would be great! Georgeh109 (talk) 20:28, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to take so long in responding; I'm swamped in real life right now. A hatnote is the note in italics at the very top of some pages, directing you to other possible articles you might have wanted instead. For example, in the article Colin Powell, there is a hatnote at the top that says "This article is about the American politician. For the English football (soccer) player, see Colin Powell (footballer)". There's documentation (way more documentation than normal humans would ever want) at WP:Hatnotes, and Template:Hatnote/doc. WP:Disambiguation also explains this approach. The whole thing is a little esoteric, and if you search you'll find lots of pages that don't meet this approach, but it kind of the long-term goal. A legitimate approach, however, is to do what you think best, and if it doesn't follow guidelines, someone will find it and fix it eventually. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:04, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Lisa Snowden in 2008.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Lisa Snowden in 2008.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:32, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No original research

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Infinity, but we cannot accept original research.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Writing style may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it.
