An article you recently created, Third Studio Album, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already).

Open Your Eyes (Victoria Beckham Album)

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Open Your Eyes (Victoria Beckham Album), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. --Android Mouse Bot 2 15:51, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Cheryl(album)

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Cheryl(album), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Fredrick day 13:24, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Cheryl(It Is Rumoured), by Sdornan (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Cheryl(It Is Rumoured) provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Cheryl(It Is Rumoured), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 03:12, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Jennifer lopez photo 2.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 05:33, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate images uploaded

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Jennifer lopez photo 2.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Jennifer lopez photo 1.jpg. The copy called Image:Jennifer lopez photo 1.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 05:46, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Silver Sky and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Silver Sky during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion.

Dear Surfer-boy94, please don't add the upcoming album name until it can be verified by reliable, third-party sources, I'm sure it will be just a matter of time, probably a day or so, but these types of things have been known to change, and her "official" site is not considered a reliable source. If you have a link from a news site (not video) that can show the album's name, not just the single, feel free to drop it on my page and I'll change it back. But I did do a Google news search, and currently, that title is only her single, from the "Forthcoming album" that's not given a name in the articles. I'm sure you understand, so please just wait a bit, and I'm sure the news services will pick up the title's release. Thanks! ArielGold 12:35, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tightrope

[edit]

Hey, sorry for reverting you, I think when most people type in tightrope, they're going to be looking for the object. How about this: Use {{redirect|tightrope|the album|Tightrope (Stephanie McIntosh album}}, which will produce

on Tightrope walking. Leave me a message on my talk page if you have any questions or want to discuss anything. Peace, delldot talk 05:54, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Citing Sources

[edit]

Please cite that the title of Stephanie McIntosh's second album is The Other Side of Me. Lillygirl 10:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Call the Shots

[edit]

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Call the Shots. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Thank you. *Hippi ippi 15:52, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is your final warning

[edit]

This is your last warning.
The next time you create an inappropriate page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Stop creating articles without any sources. Stop moving album articles without any confirmation of the title. As you've done here, "The album needs a title" is not a reliable source for an article move. Your mistakes moving the Britney Spears album article created double-redirects which you did not bother to fix. You've also created an unsourced article for an upcoming Fergie album and a Gia Farrell single, neither of which cited any sources. These have been reverted. Please stop ignoring attempts for communication from other editors. It is not fair that others have to clean up after you. - eo 12:29, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocking

[edit]

Hey, thanks for the note. There's not really a set time after which you get blocked permanently, it's more up to the administrator's discretion and the particular case. But you're right that each block is usually longer than the last. My recommendation would be to talk to the people who blocked you or warned you, see if you can get them to explain exactly why you were blocked so you can avoid doing it in the future. In the future, if there's anything you're not sure about, you can always leave a note on the article's talk page suggesting the material, and see if others have a problem with it. If no one does, you can go ahead, I can't imagine someone being mad about that. Or you can always feel free to ask me for help or advice, I'll do whatever I can to help. Peace, delldot talk 16:45, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You've created two more!

[edit]

Both of these have been redirected by other editors. You cannot keep doing this. Before you create any more articles, please read WP:Reliable sources, Wikipedia:Notability, WP:CRYSTAL and WP:ALBUMS for proper article title formatting. If you are concerned about being blocked in the future, do not ignore communication left for you here from other editors. Thanks. - eo 17:01, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your note

[edit]

Hi again. I think it's admirable that you're trying to get a new respectable start. You're not really supposed to remove warnings from your talk page (well, there's not consensus about it, but it's really frowned upon by a lot of people), but you can archive your talk page. Basically you cut and paste everything on this talk page to an archive subpage, for example named User talk:Surfer-boy94/Archive 1. That way, if someone needs to find something they left for you a while back, it's still there, but no one will just stumble across it. Now, archiving your talk page can be seen as a little sneaky, like you're trying to hide something, but you can leave an edit summary while you're archiving like "archiving: not trying to hide anything, I just want a fresh start", hopefully people will understand.

About the apologies, I think they'd work a lot better coming from you! You also know who exactly is annoyed at you and who you'd like to apologize to. Just leave them a note on their talk page explaining that you know you've made mistakes in the past but you want to fix them. If any of them respond well, you can go to them in the future with specific questions about sourcing, e.g. what counts as a reliable source and so on. If not, you're stuck with me ;)

I don't think you can add anyone as a friend the way you would on myspace, the closest thing is just to be friendly with people. If you think they've done a good job at something, let them know.

I think the most important thing is to listen to people's concerns and not repeat the mistakes they bring to your attention. If in doubt, ask first before doing something that may be a repeat of an old mistake.

Sorry not to be more help. Let me know how it goes with the new leaf, and drop me another note if you need anything else! Peace, delldot talk 12:51, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Open Your Eyes (Victoria Beckham album), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Open Your Eyes (Victoria Beckham album) is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Open Your Eyes (Victoria Beckham album) saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please feel free to use deletion review, but do not continue to repost the article if it is deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. tomasz. 20:43, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Open-Your-Eyes-2004.JPG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Open-Your-Eyes-2004.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:08, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Image:VB-ALBUMCOVER2004.JPG

[edit]

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages such as Image:VB-ALBUMCOVER2004.JPG, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[Talk:Image:VB-ALBUMCOVER2004.JPG|the article's talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ~~ [Jam][talk] 10:31, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RfD nomination of Control of the Knife

I have nominated Control of the Knife (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for discussion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at the discussion page. Thank you. ~~ [Jam][talk] 21:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated Vanessa Hudgens Second Studio Album, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vanessa Hudgens Second Studio Album and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 02:44, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Even after you edited it, most of the sources don't qualify as reliables sources. Take a look here for the rules. I might let www.eonline.com slide, but that article doesn't say anything at all ... no tracks, no title, nothing. The sources that are giving you titles and tracks are all blogs. There really isn't a rush. Sometime soon, she will release information, and then you can build an article. Until there's information, there's no reason for an article.Kww (talk) 01:05, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh so basically you mean that the article should be re-created nearer to the release date, when more information is confirmed. Surfer-boy94 (talkcontribs) 01:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Absolutely no problem to do it then. When she releases an album, it will qualify for an article. If she gives a detailed announcement, it may qualify then. It just doesn't qualify yet.Kww (talk) 01:12, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Other Albums

[edit]

First, you should read the famous essay, Other Crap Exists. That aside, Coldplay's article has information from Billboard and Coldplay's official site. Oasis's has material from Reuters. Madonna's article looks like a pure rumor piece, and the sources look like garbage to me. I'll look it over in the morning, and probably nominate it for deletion as well if I don't see something new that impresses me. A lot of these articles do live when they really shouldn't. I just monitor the Disney pages for vandalism and gossip, so I noticed this album. I wouldn't notice Madonna albums. It's really mainly about sourcing.Kww (talk) 04:05, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Hi

[edit]

Well it is impossible to fully relinquish your editing history. There are three things you can do basically:

  1. Change your account name. That will give editors an easy point in time that they can call the rebirth of Surfer-boy94 :D
  2. Abandon your current account and create a new account; Start your edit-history from scratch. In this situation you could consider redirecting the user and talk pages of your old account to your new account so that people can still reach you and to keep a "transparent situation". This is not required however and a rename might be just as suitable in that case.
  3. You can let it be as it is. None of the editors start out perfectly. In the end, the only thing that counts is your current behaviour and skills and how you interact with people. If you can show and acknowledge that you have changed, than editors will respect that just as much as they would have otherwise. It might take a longer time, but you will succeed in the end.

That is as much as I can advise you on "getting clean". Just make good edits and if you give it time, people will start to appreciate those more than they will remember your history. --TheDJ (talkcontribs) 02:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I suddenly realize that perhaps you just want to clear your Talk page. You can simply edit the page and remove all elements that are no longer current. Just be sure to say something like: "removing old messages" in the edit summary. Alternatively, you can archive your talk page. If you have trouble figuring that out, I would not mind doing that for you. --TheDJ (talkcontribs) 02:55, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

re: Respect and Administrator

[edit]

Hi Surfer-boy, I think you've made a great start by asking other editors for advice and guidance. I also see you're beginning to get involved in other areas, such as WP:AfD - this is also good. I noticed that an editor above suggested starting off fresh with a new user name - that is definitely an option. If you don't want to do this, clear your Talk Page and be sure to archive it.

Some advice for you:

  • Don't concentrate so much on creating articles. Instead, work to improve already-existing articles.
  • Having sources is very important but it's not the only thing that makes an article a good one. Start slow with minor edits, such as spelling, grammar and wikilink fixes.
  • Don't ignore comments and/or warnings left on your Talk Page.
  • I notice you like to edit music-related articles. I'm the same way. What helped me with writing in neutral point-of-view is to work on articles for artists, songs or albums that I either personally dislike or personally have no opinion. When writing about artists that you looooove, people naturally tend to inject a little bit of their personal agenda into it. Practice NPOV on, say, an album article that is nothing but a track list stub for an artist you neither like nor dislike.
  • Use article talk pages to gather opinions from other editors. Look at the "User contributions" for editors that you like. Look at page diffs to see what types of edits usually stay and what types of edits usually get reverted.
  • If your goal is to someday be an admin, definitely become involved in different areas of Wikipedia. There are so many pages in WP that are help sections, policies, guidelines, instructions, noticeboards, etc., etc., etc. Take time to browse through them. For example if you're beginning to nominate articles for deletion, spend some time in that section and add your comments to other editors' nominations.
  • Just use common sense. If something doesn't seem right in an article, it's probably not.

Hope this helps. - eo (talk) 13:02, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

References

Hey Surfer, when you build a wikipedia page with references you need to properly place a references tag so that they show up. Someone might get confused and think you have an unsourced article if you don't. I don't think I can paste the actual code in a talk page, but the tag is:

relist inside of {{}}

Sure you can make user pages. For you, they should have names like User:Surfer-boy94/fill-in-your-favorite-page-name. You can't put them in the main article space (like just "Surfer-boy94").Kww (talk) 01:31, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The only thing still wrong is that you don't really own "Surfer-Boy94".

Adminship

(replying to message on my talk) I am not an admin (you can find out people's status with Special:Listusers) and know very little about the RfA process. Sorry. Algebraist 16:34, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Surfer-boy94. I note you left a message on my talk page regarding adminship. A quick look at your contributions suggests that at the current time you would fail a request for adminship. You have a relatively low number of contributions, 961 which makes it hard to gauge how you deal with different situations. You also need to increase the proportion of the time where you provide an edit summary. I see that you've been blocked on two occasions and have a large number of messages about various issues on your talk page. All of this won't help you and you'll need to spend a significant amount of time editing until you're at such a point where it might be worthwhile requesting adminship. Regards. Adambro (talk) 17:12, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Adminship

[edit]

Hi Surfer, got your note. I'll be perfectly honest, since I'm sure that's what you want: I think you should wait on requesting adminship, I'm pretty sure you couldn't pass right now. Looking at your count, I see a few things that might be problems: you're only using edit summaries about half the time (you might want to aim for 100%; they're helpful to other users when your edits show up in their watchlists). Plus you "only" have around 1000 edits, which, believe it or not, is very unlikely to be enough; many RfA voters look for 3000-5000 edits. The amount of time you've spent on the project is plenty, but time alone isn't enough: you need experience with a diversity of areas of the project. You don't seem to have much experience editing the project space (Wikipedia: and Wikipedia talk: namespaces), which will also probably hurt your chances. Lastly, from your username, I'm assuming you're 13 or 14, which, I'm really sorry to say, will likely get you oppose votes (it's pure ageism). Not much you can do about that, but the more maturely you conduct yourself the less that will hurt you. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

My recommendation would be to keep up the good work, and to consider getting even more deeply involved in an area, perhaps working to get an article up to GA or FA status. Not only is that very rewarding, it gives you a lot of interaction with people and various parts of the project as well as informing you about policies. I'd wait to RfA until you have a good few thousand edits and some solid more experience in a few areas of the project (e.g. getting some GA's or FA's).

If you'd like a more thorough review of your editing, let me know and I can look through the history of your interactions with other users (e.g. talk page edits) and your work on the project. If you ever need my help, please don't hesitate to ask. Peace, delldot on a public computer talk 04:01, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, I doubt changing your name would help, it'll always be known what it was before it changed (If you did want to, you could do it through WP:CHU). Unless you create a new account or something, which would be silly for a little thing like that, and wouldn't be in the spirit of honesty and transparency. I'd just take my lumps. In my honest opinion, it'll be a while before you're ready to submit a request anyway, so you may be 15 or so when you do anyway. It's too bad the standards for adminship are so high, but there you have it. In the mean time, if you need any admin stuff done, you can always talk to me or another admin, or leave a note on one of the request pages (depending on what you need done). Peace, delldot on a public computer talk 05:02, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In response to your comment on my talk page Surfer-boy94, I would suggest you stick with this account and continue to work towards gaining the experience that will be required to become an administrator. Whilst a history of problematic editing might be frowned upon, if you can demonstrate that you've learn from these experiences and now better understand how Wikipedia works then I would hope that you'd be respected for this. Delldot makes some good points. Regards. Adambro (talk) 10:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Frankee discography

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Frankee discography, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because 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.

Indefinite block

[edit]

Hi, by the way i was just wondering, how long does an indefinate block last? Surfer-boy94 (talk) 14:37, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Forever. Let me look into it, and I'll tell you if I think there is anything that can/should be done.Kww (talk) 14:40, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I made my recommendation. Don't know what good it will do.Kww (talk) 14:53, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
An indefinite block lasts until the user is unblocked. I have blocked all of the confirmed socks - please treat this as a final warning that sockpuppetry won't be tolerated, and if you're found engaging in it in the future then an indefinite block will no doubt follow.
