[edit]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Frameline Film Festival may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 19:15, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My first inclination is to revert everything you added.

  1. There must be references.
  2. Please remove all the bold.
  3. "AIDS also lent a special poignancy to one of the 1986 festival’s most historic and touching moments when Lumpkin took the Castro Stage to present the first annual Frameline Award to film historian" This is not encyclopedic. There should be very few adjectives and adverbs. Only the facts.
  4. There really shouldn't be sections of each year's film festival.

Bgwhite (talk) 03:04, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I see you have continued down the same path without taking into account my advice. All the yearly festivals should not be there and you have failed to add references. Start modifying or the article will be reverted into its former form. Bgwhite (talk) 01:05, 26 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Mppage. This message is just to alert you that you broke the Talk page guidelines With this edit. I have fixed your error. But can i ask that you read The talk page guidelines before you post on a talk page again? Thanks. LorChat 02:23, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Michael Lumpkin early 90s.jpeg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Michael Lumpkin early 90s.jpeg. 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) 18:05, 2 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]


Hi,

I've added the attribution you requested. As I noted, the photo is from a private collection and is used with the permission of the owner. The photographer is unknown. Does that satisfy the requirements?

Speedy deletion of "Frameline Film Festival"

[edit]

A page you created, Frameline Film Festival, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material.

Thank you. LorTalk 01:11, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can I get some clarity on your ruling? Is this just a matter of tone? Something I can correct? And is there any way I can appeal this?

Mppage (talk) 01:22, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]


I'm not advertising or promoting anything. All these events happened years ago.

File permission problem with File:Rob Epstein, Vito Russo and Michael Lumpkin at Frameline's 1981 Opening Night.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Rob Epstein, Vito Russo and Michael Lumpkin at Frameline's 1981 Opening Night.jpg, which you've attributed to A VRT notice was applied over 30 day(s) ago, but no message at VRTS has been found since this tag was applied.. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:15, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
