Apology
[edit]Hello, I'm very sorry about labeling your edit to The Beatles as vandalism. I saw the added "1994-1996" and didn't make the connection between those years and the Anthology CDs. I also didn't recognize the name Tony Sheridan. I'm sorry and I will try not to be as hasty in the future. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Speedy deletion nomination of Valhalla Rising (film)
[edit]A tag has been placed on Valhalla Rising (film) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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.

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to Delta Goodrem, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability.

If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Alan (talk) 19:53, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for File:Ned's Declassified Main Cast from Season 3.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ned's Declassified Main Cast from Season 3.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ╟─TreasuryTag►Africa, Asia and the UN─╢ 12:27, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Fifteentaylormiley.png
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Fifteentaylormiley.png. 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.

Rolling back your redirect.
[edit]There is an ongoing AFD discussion about the Galadriel_Stineman article at AFD. You set the article as a redirect on December 16.
AFD tags should not be removed before the AFD is closed, and the redirect acts to remove that AFD tag. It is always helpful to allow editors to read an article so they may make informed decisions at AFDs. Although your redirect is a perfectly reasonable outcome for the AFD, I am rolling back the redirect until the AFD is actually over. No insult is intended.

Please stop marking these edits as minor. Aspects (talk) 22:38, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Userspace
[edit]I've noticed that you're creating a big cluster of pages in your userspace - pages on which you're creating intricately-connected false histories of nonexistent bands and their fictional careers.
Please stop; Wikipedia is not here to provide free hosting for your fiction. You can do a lot of stuff in your userspace, but not that.
I'll give you a couple of days to save any content you might want to keep; after that I'm going through and deleting them all.
If you've found the interface useful, you may wish to download a free copy of the MediaWiki software. DS (talk) 14:51, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of AT8 (band)
[edit]A tag has been placed on AT8 (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Fair use rationale for File:Pineapple-main-breaker.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Pineapple-main-breaker.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 17:27, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Can't Be Tamed page move reverted
[edit]Hi WhatGuy, I just wanted to let you know that your page move was reverted as it went against consensus reached on the WikiProject Albums talk page. I put an explanation on the album's talk page, and I'm sorry I didn't make note of the resulting consensus sooner, as this would have most likely eliminated any confusion or your decision to move the namespaces. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 21:34, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

The article Cory Doran has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Please consider reverting your categorisation, currently available evidence would tend towards her being categorized as Category:English_expatriates_in_the_United_States as whilst we can cite her nationality and Citizenship as being definitively British we cannot do the same for Australian. However as she also regularly resident in London she's more likely a British citizen living in Britain, who occasionally stays in L.A. and the term Expatriate is difficult to apply here.

Redirecting actors to TV shows
[edit]I noticed that you have been doing for so long now, could you please not do that any more. If the actor does not have a page on Wikipedia leave it redlinked or simply de-link it, instead always redirecting the actor's page to his most well known work. You recently did this with Tucker Albrizzi, if check his IMDB page you can clearly see that he has done other work besides Big Time Rush, which you redirected his page to. Could you please explain your reasons on why you do this? QuasyBoy 5:47, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Jennifermoze.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Jennifermoze.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use 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 you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 22:44, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Nomination of Aaron Albert for deletion
[edit]The article Aaron Albert is being discussed concerning whether it is suitable for inclusion as an article according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aaron Albert until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. SummerPhD (talk) 04:27, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Adifferentbeat.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Adifferentbeat.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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 03:31, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
There are several issues with your edits to this page that I have to mention.
- Do not remove red links. The cast members may have articles once the TV series premieres because they will have become notable for inclusion for being in Power Rangers.
- I don't know what is and is not included on Template:SNICK/TEENick, but just because it is airing on the network does not mean it is included in that box. It is airing on the Nicktoons channel, so it is clear that it does not fit with any of the other shows in that template. Do not put the show back on that template and do not put the template back onto any Power Rangers page.
- There are no reliable sources to say which actor is portraying which character, so this edit of yours is unsourced.
- And finally, HE HAS NEVER BEEN NAMED IN RELIABLE SOURCES.
Do not perform any of these edits again.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:34, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Saw your Oceanic Airlines article in progress
[edit]Hello...I saw your Oceanic Airline article in progress. I was wondering if you have read Non-Crossovers: Some Big Fake Companies? You might find it interesting. However, be warned, the article you are writing may never see main space unless you get other sources than the ones you have now. Those same sources were not enough for me to keep an article I was writing in my USER space from getting deleted. There are those out there who won't like it. LA If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 06:32, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
[edit]Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:09, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:MMPRgroup1.jpg
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:MMPRgroup1.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{non-free fair use in|article name that the file is used in}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. —Ryūlóng (竜龙) 18:22, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Eurovision: Your Country Needs You
[edit]Please note that there is no such chart position in the UK singles chart as 179. The official singles chart was expanded to 75 in 1978 and has never gone beyond that cut off. A further 25 positions for 'bubbling under' singles was introduced in the late 1980's but is generally not recognised as a track's actual sales/airplay number. Any lower position is never officially published. Please desist from continuing to make this addition to the page. TVArchivistUK (talk) 15:14, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi there GUY, VASCO here,
i don't know your intention in this article, but Ronald Koeman NEVER coached Benfica B, but the main team. Also, no need to write "final season" in the box, it's written in story, and in box it also says "dissolved - 2006".
Finally, Benfica B did not MERGE with the juniors or anything of the sort, as Benfica B was a senior team OK? Please leave it be and respect other people's work.

Non-free rationale for File:Simonnelson.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Simonnelson.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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:13, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:UEFA Euro 2016 logo.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:UEFA Euro 2016 logo.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:12, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

September 2012
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love , have conflicted with our neutral point of view and verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you to seek consensus for certain edits. Thank you. Friginator (talk) 22:55, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, without providing a source and without establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Friginator (talk) 22:56, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to change genres without discussion or sources, as you did at The Black Parade, you may be blocked from editing. Friginator (talk) 22:56, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at I'm Not Okay (I Promise), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Friginator (talk) 22:56, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

The article Daniel Fathers has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. -- Patchy1 03:10, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Guano Apes
[edit]Hi WhatGuy, and thanks for your edits to the article Open Your Eyes (Guano Apes song), which I created. I couldn't help but notice your list of Guano Apes singles here. Are you planning on creating the articles for the other singles? If not, do you mind if I copy the info you have compiled on your subpage and make pages for all the other singles myself? I'm happy to do it all myself, I just figured since you've gone to all the trouble to compile this information you might want to create them yourself, and I don't want to take that away from you. Let me know :) Freikorp (talk) 14:02, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
Sure, you can do that. I don't mind at all. Actually, I can do it. WhatGuy (talk) 09:26, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hey man, i'm just curious - where did you find out that You Can't Stop Me charted at No. 99 in the UK? I'm unaware of websites that list charts in the UK past the top 40, so I can't find a reference for it. Also if you search WP:RSN you'll see that unfortunately discogs is not considered a reliable for references on wikipedia. Track listing is very unlikely to be challenged so the areas where you've been adding discogs as a reference really don't need a reference there anyway. One last thing - Sorry if you already knew this but I thought i'd let you know just in case so you don't waste your time. Unless you can find several reliable reviews for the 3 singles from Bel Air that did not chart, I wouldn't waste time making pages for them, as if a single did not chart AND did not generate significant media coverage it will be deleted as per notability guidelines. Freikorp (talk) 17:09, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- I won't be creating the articles for "Break the Line" and singles from Bel Air for now. However, for the three singles from Bel Air that did not chart at all will have a mention in their articles (if it ever happens) that it failed to chart. WhatGuy (talk) 17:33, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Mentioning that the songs did not chart is all well and good, but as per Wikipedia:MUSIC#Recordings, a song is not considered notable just because it was performed by a notable artist. Therefore if it did not chart you would have to find several reliable reviews of the song to establish notability. If notability is not established the article will most likely be redirected back to the album article, probably by myself if nobody beats me to it. Freikorp (talk) 09:19, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
- I've created the articles for "Sunday Lover" and "When the Ships Arrive" as redirects to Bel Air. I already knew that "This Time" is a redirect to Bel Air. They will be turned into proper articles once I find several reliable reviews of the songs to establish notablility that the singles failed to chart. I may do "Break the Line" and "Oh, What a Night" soon as they both charted. WhatGuy (talk) 09:31, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Check it out man, I got "You Can't Stop Me" featured on the front page of wikipedia in the "Did You Know" section: nomination discussion can be found here: Template:Did you know nominations/You Can't Stop Me.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TheLongTone (talk) 14:57, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

File source problem with File:21stcenturyfilmcorporation.png
[edit]Thank you for uploading File:21stcenturyfilmcorporation.png. 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 page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Marchjuly (talk) 14:06, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
Sources for non-free images.
[edit]Hi WhatGuy. I saw that you added the non-free rationale for File:21stcenturyfilmcorporation.png so that it can be used in 21st Century Film Corporation. You, however, forgot to add a source for the image and a source is required for all non-free images so that it can be verified that they have been previously published (WP:NFCC#4) and so their copyright information can be verified as well. Do you remember where you got the image from or which webpage you download the image from? If you do, then just add that information to the rationale; Otherwise, the image can be deleted. The same also applies to File:Franchisepictures.png. It has a rationale, but no source. So if you remember where you got that image from then, please add that information to the image's non-free use rationale. Thanks. - Marchjuly (talk) 14:14, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Just want to add that some kind of official website, etc. is needed so that copyright status of the image can be verified. Anything official which clearly shows that the logos are actually used by the companies should be OK. Forums, personal blogs, wiki-sites or other user-generated websites are not really acceptable unless there's a link provided to a source which allows the image to be verified. Otherwise, there's no way to know for sure whether the image was actually used by the company. - Marchjuly (talk) 14:23, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- The 21st Century Film Corporation logo as seen in the opening for their films is a difficult-to-find logo and several of the sources are from wiki-sites, personal blogs and other user-generated websites. - WhatGuy (talk) 17:20 GMT, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- OK. Thank you for the clarification. Do you know if the company ever had a webpage? Maybe there's an archived version of it somewhere showiing the logo. Do you remember the url of the site where you found the logo? If the company never had an official website, then maybe where you got the image would be acceptable in this case. It can be asked about at WP:NFCR. - Marchjuly (talk) 21:28, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- There was no official website for the studio but I remember the URL of the site where I found the logo. Here it is but sadly is from a wiki-site: http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130121153551/logopedia/images/b/bf/21st_Century_Film_Corporation_logo.png - WhatGuy (talk) 22:32 GMT, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I'll add it as a source to the image for now, so that the image is not deleted while it's being discussed and then I'll ask about it at NFCR. Perhaps I'm wrong about the source. It wouldn't be the first time I was wrong. Anyway, thanks for finding it. - Marchjuly (talk) 21:58, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Just for reference, I asked about this at WP:NFCR#File:21stcenturyfilmcorporation.png. The problem with uploading non-free content from user-generated sites like Logopedia, etc. is that there's usually no way to verify who the original copyright holder, etc. is so that the image satisfies WP:NFCC#10a. Official websites almost always say something like "Copyrighted by XXXXX" somewhere on the website. User-generated pages, on the other hand, tend to contain images/content which are uploaded anonymously from another website and the uploader is almost always not the creator of the content and almost always is not really too concerned with copyright issues. This is one reason why links to YouTube videos, etc. almost always have problems with WP:LINKVIO. Links to copyrighted material improperly uploaded to other websites is not allowed to be made on Wikipedia so if you know anything at all about the copyright holder which can help clarify the image's copyright status, then please add that to the image's rationale. - Marchjuly (talk) 00:37, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
- We are not going to be able to use the Logopedia as a source because there's no way to verify the image's copyright from it and there's way to know if the site has permission to use the image per WP:COPYLINK. It is, however, possible to use a movie in which the logo was used as the source. Do you know of any of hand? We do not need a link to the movie itself; We just need the name, year, perhaps the production company, etc. (the information in WP:NFCC#10a) to use in the source.

Disambiguation link notification for July 31
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Steel (1997 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charles Napier. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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).

Speedy deletion nomination of Matt Riedy
[edit]Hello WhatGuy,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Matt Riedy for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Replaceable fair use File:Lifejan301970.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Lifejan301970.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
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. --Animalparty! (talk) 00:45, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

Why do you want to duplicate all sections in an article?
[edit]Yesterday you have added all sections in the article Stars in Their Eyes a second time. That makes no sense, so I've reverted it. But you have reverted it without any comments, now all sections of the article are duplicated again. Why do you insist on duplicating all sections of the article. Are you a vandal? --GünniX (talk) 18:49, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- No, I'm not a vandal. I did actually try to revert the edits from 146.90.36.107 back to the one I edited two days ago to no avail and I apologise for duplicating, therefore I will now stop doing duplicating them. WhatGuy (talk) 18:58, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
