Manchester Meetup

[edit]

Hi, just getting in touch because you expressed an interest in the meetup here. Some people have expressed a view that they would be able to make it were the date moved from Fri 8 June to Sat 9 June. Obviously its now getting pretty close, so I thought a quick poll would be the best the way to find out the better day. If you're still interested, it would be great if you could say whether you can make either or both days here. Thanks, WjBscribe 16:48, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:BBC Radio Collection Alan Bennett Forty Years On tape cover.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:BBC Radio Collection Alan Bennett Forty Years On tape cover.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).

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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 19:49, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

JetBlue

[edit]

Hello Redvers. You helped me with an image issue before, and I would like your opinion on an image. A user on the JetBlue Airways page has been posting photos of the JetBlue Terminal in New York. He has had two images deleted for improper licensing, and the photo he has currently uploaded was labeled as a screenshot of software, possibly to avoid scrutiny. Since you are more familiar with WP's image regulations than I, could this constitute grounds for deletion? Thanks for your help! Neo16287 01:57, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I wanted to get your opinion on my reworking of the Pittsburgh Organizing Group article, since you were the deleting admin at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pittsburgh Organizing Group. I thought your decision was very reasonable and well-explained, but I think the group is notable and verifiable enough to merit an article. I've made a bunch of changes, and you can see what I have so far at User:Delldot/Box of sand. This shows most of the changes I've made from the deleted article (excluding the few I made in the first edit). I've added some references and taken out anything I thought needed a reference and didn't have a reliable one. In a lot of the post-gazette articles, POG is prominent. I wondered if you'd take a look and let me know what other changes you think need to be made and whether you think it's OK for me to undelete the article and change it to the version I currently have. I'm not really familiar with the procedure here, so any advice would be great. Thanks much, delldot talk 00:43, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
