Welcome!

Hello, RustyWard, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Star Licks, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard. Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! — Timneu22 · talk 16:13, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated Star Licks, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Star Licks. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. — Timneu22 · talk 16:13, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit summary stated: Referenced 60+ times in Wikipedia worldwide... what does that mean, exactly? There appear to be no pages linking to this title. — Timneu22 · talk 16:27, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop asking the same question repeatedly, and especially at my talk page. I have already answered the question about why it's not valid. See Talk:Star Licks, which includes the second time you asked the question, and a link to the answer (that was provided after the first time you answered the question). Further complaints about this on my talk page could be considered vandalism. I have already explained the problem, and the article is quite clear on what you need to fix. One thing you won't be able to fix is the WP:COI, but it obviously exists. If you care so much about this article, address the problems that have been described for you. Please do not leave me another message on my talk page. — Timneu22 · talk 17:30, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Timneu22: So sorry, I’m new to Wikipedia and had no idea as to where to reply to your reasons for deleting my article. I prefaced my questions with, “I’m not sure if this is the correct place to reply.” If you consider this vandalism, do us both a favor and delete my article. This whole process is way too uptight for any end-product this may result in… 75.171.36.50 (talk) 01:01, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Brian may.jpg[edit]

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Brian may.jpg. 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, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 05:48, 4 July 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 05:48, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Gail June Edwards.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Gail June Edwards.jpg, which you've sourced to Publicity headshot of Gail Edwards for her musical “Full Circle”. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 in|article name}} 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) 23:09, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:INFOBOXPURPOSE to see that it's not redundant to have info in the Infobox and in the article body. You can also see MOS:BLPLEAD. Thanks. --Musdan77 (talk) 20:17, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Mckay edwards.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Mckay edwards.jpg. 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.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, BOT-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate your file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 03:00, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
