Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

I am sorry to say that even quite long and well-written articles about non-notable people are not retained in our encyclopedia. If you assumed that the statement that everyone could edit implied that all edits were retained, I'm afraid that this is not so.--Anthony.bradbury 00:38, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:H theduckyboys.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:H theduckyboys.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

TwitchDestroyer[edit]

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article TwitchDestroyer, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but yours may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. heqs ·:. 12:30, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:1131713895_l.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:1131713895_l.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

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

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Rette tast 18:35, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Consequence of Sound links[edit]

Please do not add advertising or inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

If the site is notable then:

You would not need to assert its importance through your edit summary
Multiple editors would be adding review links to articles, not deleting them
The site would have already received its own wiki article

Again, please don't use Wiki as a platform for promoting a website. Please review WP:ALBUM for notability requirements for reviews. Thanks --Madchester (talk) 16:22, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Wikipedia Email[edit]

The following was the email received. My reply, for continuity, is under your initial email message. Please continue the discussion below the last comment of the thread.

Hello,

Hope all is well.

I'm a bit confused in regards to wikipedia's standards for appropriate reviews. While you and other editors have deemed links to reviews by Consequence of Sound, LLC as "vandalism" other editors have allowed them.

First and foremost, I find it particularly infuriating that editors, rather than the music community, determines what reviews are "legitimate". For example, despite being highly regard by publications like the New Yorker, MTV.com, Filter Magazine, Time Out, and the BBC, among others, Consequence of Sound is deemed an inappropriate outlet because it does not have a wikipedia page? Can you please explain to me as to why these outlets, combined with over 5,000 users, read these reviews each and every day?

I ask that you review your decision and perhaps communicate with some of your peers just what determines a review's legitimacy. I can give you countless examples of hundreds of wikipedia pages of links to reviews from outlets that not only don't have a wikipedia page, but don't even come close to the reputation or readership that Consequence of Sound has.

I applaud you for your work and I know how had it must be. However, in this case, I think wikipedia is dead wrong.

Mr. Young, the edits I reverted were reversions of mass-"copy and paste" links on the External Links section of several articles. Since you are essentially promoting your own URLs, I must insist that you review the WP:COI policy on conflict of interest as well as WP:EL, our standards on external links placement. Wikipedia is a community-based project with editors around the world, including members of the music community. Notability is a tricky business when is comes to various Wikipedia topics, and I urge you to review WP:N for the general notability guidelines. Additional guidelines are available via various WikiProjects specializing in the field, like WPP:MUSIC. WP:MUSIC should complement WP:N. Before you pass judgment on Wikipedia as a whole and its editors, I urge you to review the various Wikipedia Policies and Guidelines. If you have any questions, you may reply on my talk page. Unfortunately, I do not respond via email for cases such as this. Have a great day. - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 17:17, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jamesontai,

Thank you for your prompt response and I appreciate your explanation. Like I said, I understand that you're job is tricky at times and I admire you for that. However, I would point out that when it comes to publishing links to reviews appearing on Consequence of Sound, I neither no it to promote the site, nor in a form of vandalism. As an author of several wikipedia pages, I realize the importance of creating an article using many different sources and references. In my opinion, the more reviews for an album the better, especially when the publication at note is well respected within the music community. In other words, I do these edits not for the benefit of the website, but for the benefit of enhancing a particular wikipedia article.

With that being said, I do agree that notability can be a tricky topic and it probably doesn't help that a majority of links posted for CoS reviews comes from yours truly, but I would like to point out that there have been a number of cases when links have been posted to reviews by others, and I would be happy to link you to those if that would help at all.

I'm not trying to start a problem and if you believe it would be in the best interest of all parties involved to stop posting links, I will gladly comply. However, I have reviewed wikipedia's notability standards, and I am fully confident that we fit a majority of the criteria necessary.

I look forward to hearing back and have a great weekend.

AxYoung (talk) 18:49, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I personally believe in this case, as much as I sympathize with what you're saying, the policies on WP:EL and others are quite clear. For a source to not even have a legitimate article on Wikipedia does cast doubt on whether those EL inclusions be notable, and provide substantial content that hasn't already been covered by other ELs on the article. One other bit, I believe it shouldn't take the owner of the website to be adding links himself. If this source is widely used, a wide range of users would voluntarily cite your website on our articles. Sourcing on your website is also an issue. We cannot have articles citing themselves to be a legitimate source either. I'm sorry, but there are just too many factors and until they are worked out, I'm not sure it is appropriate to be added at this time. You, and others in the community are free to add this website in the future once these issues are addressed, or if our policies and guidelines change. You are welcome to work with WikiProject Music (WPP:MUSIC) and collaborate with other editors focused in the music industry to review your website as well. WikiProjects sometimes can work out their own notability guidelines to allow certain exceptions to external links. However, as you have no doubt found already, more than one editor, including myself, has reverted your external links, which means that my original thoughts on this issue has been seconded. Please try to form consensus with other editors to work out the differences if possible. If you should require further assistance, please contact me via my talk page. Thanks and have a good weekend. - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 04:35, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Cosnewlogo.png[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Cosnewlogo.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:06, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:E89903e56ou.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:E89903e56ou.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. Rockfang (talk) 21:00, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Theduckyboys.jpg[edit]

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

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

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 18:07, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
