If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Juice Media 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 person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. TransporterMan (TALK) 17:18, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I'm biassed, because I'm a fan, but I reckon there should be a wikipedia page for The Juice Media. Aberdeen01 (talk) 14:55, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Aberdeen01, I replied on the talkpage and then added the radio reference in. Adjust if needed. I left 4 refs on the talkpage and used 2 on the article, 1 for the year of the radio show start 1992 and one for the mid-90s book start. Murry1975 (talk) 18:30, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Craig Gilroy, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Methodist College (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

File permission problem with File:Dermot Kinlen 1999.jpeg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Dermot Kinlen 1999.jpeg, which you've sourced to Lyle O'Donnell. 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

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.

What we're trying to do here is to build a great, free, online encyclopedia. When a wikipedia editor enters a new paragraph of text, they can't steal the copyright work of others. That's something that most of us would agree on. However, a second editor can't delete the work of the first editor because the original editor didn't prove there is no copyright violation. If an editor is going to do something destructive, like delete a paragraph of another editor, then the burden of proof must be with the editor who is destroying the work of the constructive editor. People who want to remove the work of other editors need to have a very good reason to do so.
The more hoops we ask editors to jump through, the fewer edits we're going to get
Over the past few years the number of editors of the English language version of has dropped significantly. If we want to reverse this, we should refrain from deleting the work of editors unless we have a very good reason.
If someone has made up a silly rule that suggests the burden of proof is with constructive editors rather than with people who enjoy destroying the work of others, then thinking people should work towards getting the rule changed and not blindly following it.
In my own case a while ago I uploaded to wikipedia a photo taken by an amature photographer of Dermot Kinlen. The photographer gave permission to a webmaster to use the photo for free on his site. That webmaster in turn said I could upload it to wikipedia. I then tried to contact the original photographer for confirmation. I did not get a reply from the email and I put in some effort to find him. I believe he may have died. I found a death notice of someone with his name in his town who has recently passed away. Of course I cannot be certain this was the same person. In this case I think if anyone wants to delete the photo they should need to prove that there is an objection for the use of this photo. If a family member of the deceased comes forward and objects to the use of the photo, then fine, let's take the photo off wikipedia. But that has not happened and I think we all know that that is not going to happen. I have already spent far too much time trying to sort out this issue. The photo has been deleted and it is far too much hassel to try to get it reinstated.
In the case of Zhang Yi Tang's photo, it was released by his university in a press release. The person who deleted it should have confirmed there was an objection to it's use before making the deletion.
Unfortunately, once again the destructive editors have won. I think they need some better guidelines.

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Ebyabe. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Ebyabe (talk) 02:49, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why not be constructive rather than destructive? The ref that I've now added was already included in the article in the 'External Links' section. But if you really wanted the ref to be added again, I bet it would have taken you less time to add it than to type what you wrote above. My suggestion is that you spend more time being constructive and less time removing the good faith edits of others. --Aberdeen01 (talk) 13:41, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that I have reverted your edits to Lily James as you used IMDB as a source for information in a biography article. Please note that per long-standing consensus, IMDb does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. You can read more about the reasons for this here, here and here. With regard to the inclusion of a birth date, policy dictates that birth dates are only included when published in multiple sources meeting reliable sourcing criteria. -- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 23:38, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It would be much better if you were to improve the work of others rather than destroy it. In the time that it took you to write that paragraph above, I bet you could have found a couple of independent sources. Aberdeen01 (talk) 17:01, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BURDEN. I've added sources to thousands upon thousands of biography articles (there was even an entire project dedicated to it). Now I'm taking the opportunity to educate others on how to improve their sourcing when they fail to follow WP:BLP, either through ignorance or neglect. There's nothing "destructive" about ensuring Wikipedia's most important and bright line policies are upheld. Have a great day!-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 00:06, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
