Jenny Craig
Hi. I removed the section because the way in which the material from her biography, which was mentioned in the opening of the paragraph, was presented but not properly referenced. It was difficult to tell what were exact quotes and what was additional prose. WP:QUOTE says "[i]n general, using three or more consecutive words from a source is a quotation" and must be sourced or be removed. It also cautions against overuse, and the paragraph constituted roughly half of the article, almost all of which were direct quotes. The paragraph was well constructed, and really, it related the issue quite well, but the incorporation of the extensive quotes as it was presented just violates copyright. Hopefully that explains the problem. Wildhartlivie (talk) 18:00, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Kaleidescape, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of Kaleidescape and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Ecoleetage (talk) 12:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Kaleidescape logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Kaleidescape logo.gif. 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. BJBot (talk) 06:34, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
