Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Rattler (roller coaster), without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. We have some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. McDoobAU93 (talk) 23:52, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to American Eagle (roller coaster). This includes making page moves while a discussion remains under way. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. McDoobAU93 (talk) 00:01, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to UAL 93. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to blocking of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Veggy (talk) 00:03, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Raptor (roller coaster), is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.TPOLMike (talk) 22:00, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
Moons of Mars
Where does the idea that Moons of --- should only apply when a planet has at least four moons? Saros136 (talk) 19:51, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
Space Mountain
Hi ... I wanted to let you know that your recent changes to Space Mountain (Magic Kingdom) were undone. Rumor websites, such as Screamscape (a website I read often, myself), are not considered reliable for the purposes of Wikipedia. On the occasion when Screamscape includes a link to a newspaper or similar website, then that particular information could be used for an article, provided the link to the reliable site is used for the citation. I believe you're working in good faith, so don't consider this a warning or anything like that. If you have any questions or comments, please leave them on my talk page or on the talk page for the article. Thanks, and happy editing! --McDoobAU93 (talk) 13:43, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to St. Peter's Basilica, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. We have some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. There was no discussion to move the page and "New St. Peter's Basilica" is neither a widely used name nor the actual name. In the future, it would be better to bring up a move on the article's talk page before making a change like that unless a title obviously doesn't follow Wikipedia naming conventions and guidelines. --JonRidinger (talk) 06:52, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Orange M.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Orange M.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Page move without consensus
The page move you made to Seventh Avenue (IND Queens Boulevard Line) has been reverted. Please don't move pages without consensus. Additionally, you may not be familiar with the naming convention for New York City Subway stations. The names are taken from the official map, except for station complexes of multiple lines.

Edit Summaries
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you.

Page moves without discussion or an edit summary
Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Jamaica (LIRR station). This includes making page moves while a discussion remains under way. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject.

Subway station complex page merges
When you propose page merges, please wait at least a week before going ahead with the merge. Give others a chance to discuss the ramification of such a change. Since WP:NYCPT is organized to deal with the New York City Subway topic, add a post to the WikiProject New York City Public Transportation talk page. You can also add a post to my talk page, if you prefer.
Also, use the en dash (–) and not a hyphen (-). See WP:ENDASH. You can insert an en dash by selecting it below the editing window. Tinlinkin (talk) 04:53, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

O'Hare Airport

London Underground
Please don't alter London Underground historic railway names to modern line names - the line names were only used from the mid-1930s onward, so are quite unsuitable when discussing earlier events. --Redrose64 (talk) 17:54, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
- Couple of other things. As per Wikipedia:TIES and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (spelling) the UK style of spelling should be used. Changing it to the US style will get some editors very upset, even it's done by accident. Also if you look at Category:London Underground lines you will see that for whatever reason they all use the small line rather than the capital Line. Not sure why but there is probably a discussion on it somewhere. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 22:50, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Suggestion for Monk family trees
I suggest an addition for Randy. I'm not quite sure how to format it, or I'd do it myself.
- Randy Disher
- Maria Disher (mother)
- Harvey Disher (mother's brother)
- Dalton Pedron (mother's husband)
I think that's it. If there isn't enough to actually make a tree, that's fine. It's just a suggestion. Kevinbrogers (talk) 20:33, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever
I have nominated Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever, 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/Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever. 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. Burpelson AFB (talk) 00:45, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
Station name changes reverted
I have reverted your recent changes to New York City Subway station article names, as they contravene the naming convention.
Most distressingly, I see that several other editors have pointed out this convention before, and you seem to keep renaming articles in spite of that, without first proposing the change or seeking input from your fellow editors.
In addition, I see that others have pointed out that we use en-dashes, not pure hyphens, and you seem to be ignoring that too. It would be nice if you could channel your obvious enthusiasm without running afoul of established editing conventions.
Renaming a station article name, and doing it correctly, takes a lot of work. You not only need to change the article name itself; you have to find all the places that referred to it by the former name, and change them too. You also need to correct all of the double-redirects that rae created. This is one of the many reasons why this should only be done when there is a clear consensus in favor of it. Marc Shepherd (talk) 16:25, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Popular culture items
All popular culture items require citation to a third-party reliable source to establish notability. They may not simply be sourced to the media itself. Please read Wikipedia:"In popular culture" content for details as to what type of items are acceptable and what is required for support. Yworo (talk) 20:01, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Mansion House
What is the reasoning behind this edit? It screws up the routeboxes for the District on station articles such as Windsor, Slough, Langley, etc. all the way to West Ealing. At the time that the District ran a service west of Ealing Broadway, those services went no further east than Mansion House, and their other services went no further east than Whitechapel - so no way should Upminster be shown, and High Street Ken is highly dubious. --Redrose64 (talk) 15:24, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
Windsor
Following on from the above: why this change, and this one? At the time that the District ran to that station (1883-85), it was named plain "Windsor". It became "Windsor & Eton" in 1904, after District services had ceased, and didn't become "Windsor & Eton Central" until 1949. --Redrose64 (talk) 15:30, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
Proposed Deletion of Mr. Monk and the Astronaut and Mr. Monk Gets Hypnotized
Just a warning: Unfortunately, the articles Mr. Monk and the Astronaut and Mr. Monk Gets Hypnotized is up for deletion, due to the fact that they not very notable. I think they can be saved, if a "Reception" section and possibly a "Production" section are added. Unfortunately, I don't have much time this week. Since you know a lot about Monk, would you mind working on those articles a bit? Thanks. Kevinbrogers (talk) 17:09, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Also, Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist has been nominated for deletion, for the same reasons. Kevinbrogers (talk) 17:19, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Individual Monk Articles
I believe that Monk, and every other show, should have an article for every episode. House, The Office, Seinfeld, and many others do. Unfortunately, for some reason, not all shows are allowed to. (I understand the notability rules, but come on, not every single episode of House is that memorable). Anyway, I like the idea of making more articles for Monk, we just need to figure out which ones are worth attempting. I've seen every episode of the show at least 4 times (no joke), so I can help a lot with the process if you'd like me to. These are the ones I think would not be immediately marked for deletion:
- Mr. Monk and Little Monk (4.08) -- Shows many scenes from young Monk's life.
- Mr. Monk and the Secret Santa (4.09) -- A good episode. The first Christmas episode. Other than that, there isn't much, so this one could be a long shot.
- Mr. Monk Gets Jury Duty (4.16) -- Other than the fact that it is my favorite episode, it contains many references to 12 Angry Men. Also, a season finale, which in my experience are slightly more notable.
- Mr. Monk and the Actor (5.01) -- Another good episode. Adding the fact that Stanley Tucci won an Emmy for it, this one could probably easily be made.
- Mr. Monk and the Garbage Strike (5.02) -- A good one. It's memorable, we just have to prove it.
- Mr. Monk Meets His Dad (5.09) -- I didn't like this one much, but it did introduce Monk's father. This one is also a bit of a long shot.
- Mr. Monk and the Leper (5.10) -- This episode is just awesome. We just have to show notability.
- Mr. Monk and His Biggest Fan (6.01) -- A memorable episode. Sarah Silverman was also nominated for an Emmy for it.
- Mr. Monk and the Bad Girlfriend (6.04) -- Exit of Linda Fusco, because she murdered someone.
- Mr. Monk Joins a Cult (6.11) -- Memorable, good episode.
- Mr. Monk Buys a House (7.01) -- Bell's first episode, fairly notable.
- Mr. Monk Is Underwater (7.05) -- Another long shot, but it does introduce Albright and delves into Monk's psychology.
- Mr. Monk and the Miracle (7.09) -- Good episode. That's about it, though. Another long shot.
- Mr. Monk's Other Brother (7.10) -- First and only appearance of Jack Jr.
- Mr. Monk and the Lady Next Door (7.12) -- Good episode. Gena Rowlands nominated for an Emmy for it.
- Mr. Monk and the Magician (7.15) -- Death of Kevin Dorfman
- Mr. Monk Fights City Hall (7.16) -- Doesn't really contribute anything important to the Trudy murder, but does focus on it.
- Mr. Monk Is Someone Else (8.04) -- Good episode. Shows Monk's psychology again.
- Mr. Monk Goes to Group Therapy (8.08) -- Reconciliation of Monk and Harold; Harold's last appearance.
- Happy Birthday, Mr. Monk (8.09) -- Trudy Jensen's first appearance. Other than that, not very notable.
- Mr. Monk and Sharona (8.10) -- Return of Sharona. Enough said.
- Mr. Monk Is the Best Man (8.13) -- Stottlemeyer and Trudy K. get married. Kind of important.
Of the above, a few of them would probably get deleted, but probably not all of them. Unfortunately, some episodes you specified (such as Mr. Monk Is On the Air) probably wouldn't make the cut. Just because an episode has a unique connection to another star (Tony Shalhoub and Steven Weber on Wings) doesn't mean it's notable (though I still argue that every episode deserves an article).
The most important thing with all of this is establishing notability. If we can show multiple critics' views on this, and show that people will still remember the episodes, the articles will be fine. Otherwise, they'll just be deleted and no one will ever see them. Kevinbrogers (talk) 22:14, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
My additions
- Mr. Monk, Private Eye - Introduction of Linda Fusco
- Yes, that should probably be done too (especially if we do Bad Girlfriend). Kevinbrogers (talk) 23:19, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Most of those sound good. In any that we do, we have to add a Reception section. A Production section would be very useful too, if we can find anything on it. I suggest we start the articles in our Userspace, that way people don't delete them while we're working on them. (If you don't know how, you just start an article called, for example, User:DReifGalaxyM31/Mr. Monk and the Panic Room.) I guess we can just split them down the middle. Since there are more notable episodes in recent years, how about you take Seasons 1-5 and I'll take 6-8? Kevinbrogers (talk) 23:37, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- I've looked over User:DReifGalaxyM31/Mr. Monk and the Panic Room. It's looking good so far, and I've made a couple minor changes. A couple things I want to clear up, though: 1) When listing episode titles, do we italicize or put in quotes? I honestly don't know. I've always done italics. And, if quotes, does a comma go inside them or outside? 2) When creating redirect pages (if we ever need to), let's always put #REDIRECT [[Monk (season 1)#ep1]] with the numbers replaced (this way, it will redirect to the episode description). 3) Let's try to keep the plotlines shorter than a few paragraphs. Too much description can kind of get hard to read. 4) If possible, I'd like to put a picture on each article. I can do it later if you'd like me to. I think that's everything... keep up the good work. I'll get started on "Biggest Fan" later on. I'll file my articles under User:Kevinbrogers/Sandbox/Monk articles once I get started.

Reply
I created the season articles with the links because we were talking about doing that on some other discussion page. I had to go somewhere and I wasn't done yet, so that's why I created them in the Sandbox. Also, I voted "delete" on the nominated articles because those particular episodes aren't very notable, and they were just plot. As far as "Mr. Monk and the Astronaut" and "Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist", I didn't know those were up for deletion. The only ones I voted "delete" on were "Mr. Monk Goes to the Carnival", "Mr. Monk Goes To The Asylum" (memorable, but nothing more than plot on the article), and "Mr. Monk And The Billionaire Mugger". I'd be willing to change my vote on "Asylum" if more is added to the article, though. Kevinbrogers (talk) 22:49, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- Also, something that was said at the "Billionaire Mugger" discussion inspired me. It seems that it is possible to create an article for every single episode, as long as it is well sourced and has Reception and Production sections. Shows such as "Family Guy" (see this episode) and "The Office" (see this episode) have articles for every episode, even though some aren't that memorable. Apparently, even if they aren't memorable, they can still be proved notable. "House" is another show with an article for every episode, but doesn't have anything but plot on some of them (see this episode). However, there was a "scare" a few weeks ago in which someone deleted every article. Anyway, it appears that it doesn't matter if people remember it, it's just that people saw it in the first place. I think we can create an article for every episode, but we have to put a lot of work into it. Kevinbrogers (talk) 23:05, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- Why did that incident happen?DReifGalaxyM31 (talk) 23:06, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- Most articles are only a lengthy plot summary. Someone found them and deleted them all without even a discussion. (S)he was attacked by several other editors who apparently love House, and they put them all back up. Kevinbrogers (talk) 23:10, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- I'm considering adding IMDB links for each episode. "Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist" will be the first one I do that on. And another thing, consider adding season articles with external links for seasons 5-8, if you haven't done those already. DReifGalaxyM31 (talk) 23:13, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- IMDb sounds good. I'm going to do 5-8, I just haven't gotten there yet... it's been a busy Thanksgiving week. Kevinbrogers (talk) 23:14, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Station moves
Just a note. Stratford station is sometimes Stratford Regional so the move was okay i guess. With stations such as West Hampstead Thameslink and City Thameslink, Thameslink is actually part of their names and have not been added on here just to distinguish between services. When making future page moves with railway stations which is rather contested, unless official name changes have been announced or there is consensus within the community, could you please leave a note on the article talk page, WT:TWP or WT:UKRAIL on the move?

- Why so angry? WP:ILIKEIT is true, but if notability can be established, it should be kept. That was my reasoning on voting "Keep" for that article. Someone should add sections to Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist on Production and Reception, and everything should be fine. Kevinbrogers (talk) 22:01, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

em-dash spacing
Hi,
With regard to your changes to the 12 Angry Men (1957 film) article, I see that you have added spacing around the em-dashes used. For future reference, you should be aware that the Wikipedia Manual of Style entry on en- and em-dashes states that only en-dashes should have surrounding spaces – like this – but that em-dashes should be flush—like this—to the preceding and following words.
I have therefore reverted your changes. Arthur Holland (talk) 11:15, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Re: Monk articles
That's fine. I've been busy lately, and have only had time to do "Mr. Monk Gets Jury Duty". Hopefully once things start to slow down I can work on them some more. Kevinbrogers (talk) 21:23, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Re: Monk article images
Sounds good. Leo Navarro was Monk's landlord, who walked in while Monk and Dr. Kroger were dealing with the chimpanzee situation. He was bald, which caused the chimpanzee to go crazy, and helped Monk solve the case. Kevinbrogers (talk) 00:49, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Archiving
Hi DReifGalaxyM31! I noticed the archive request on your page. If you'd like, I can setup a bot to automatically archive older threads, and then you won't have to worry about it anymore? --Elonka 14:25, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks! I would appreciate it. DReifGalaxyM31 (talk) 15:55, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- Done! I did a manual archive to start, and the bot should begin picking things up in a day or so. It'll auto-archive any threads that are more than 5 days old, but will always leave the most recent threads on your talkpage, regardless of age. If you would like any tweaks, or have any questions, let me know! --Elonka 17:19, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
Monk book plots
Hi. I've been looking at you extensive work on the Monk books. Could I suggest a few things?
- You should read this essay on plots. It's not a guideline, but it has sound advice about plot summaries. The plot summaries on the Monk books are really way too long, and go into every single event in a way that swamp the rest of the article. Really, if you were to read these summaries all the way through there would be no point to reading the book. So you have to ask, who's going to read them? Those who do want to read the book won't want to, as it will ruin the book for them. Those who don't want to read the book won't want to, as they are far too detailed. Those who have read the book don't need reminded of all these details.
- These articles really need cites to verify what is being said on them. Particularly when it comes to the content that adds analysis or commentary. The article are generally lacking any kind of cites, and too much of the articles are unverifiable in a way that makes it appear to be primarily original research.
- The various "Notes", "Goofs", "Allusions", "Additional facts", "Similarities and differences" sections are, on the other hand, almost certainly all original research. It's core policy that Wikipedia does not record original research. They also appear to be mostly material of interest only to hardcore fans and should really be on a fan website, not Wikipedia.
- The "Author" section at the end is non-standard and unnecessary. There's a link to the author in the lead.
I realise you've put a lot of work into these articles, but please take time to consider my suggestions before devoting more time to them. Thanks. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 16:20, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
- Hi. Could you address my concern about original research before reverting my edits please. If we put aside for one movement my concerns about trivia and fancruft, where are you getting this information, such as the "Goofs", from? Thanks. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 20:10, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
- I have stopped by, coincidentally wanting to make the same points as above.
- This is a general encyclopedia, not a Monk fansite. Plot summaries this detailed belong there, not here.
- You have to be judicious. A summary of War and Peace is never going to be a substitute for reading War and Peace. Not every item needs to be noted.
- A plot involves several parallel subplots. Isolate those, and touch on key events along those threads. That is all that's required.
- Interested parties are always free to watch the episodes.
- The points above about OR, trivia, cruft, they are all valid.
- Many editors here are of the slash and burn variety.
- If the articles were more modest and manageable with better documentation (TV Guide?) then there is a greater likelihood for survival.
- I hope that is plain enough.

Page Moves
I have reverted your unilateral page move at Court Square (New York City Subway). You have been asked before to please not move pages without discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New York City Public Transportation. The complex is called Court Square per the map and the project's naming convention.
I have also posted a reference to your requested move at Talk:Delancey Street – Essex Street (New York City Subway) to the project's talk page. Acps110 (talk • contribs) 20:28, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
NYCS Temporary Construction Templates
Please do not create construction service templates for the New York City Subway like this one. They are absolutely unnecessary since the construction is temporary and only affects 1-2 stations. This is the third time I have nominated a template you created for deletion and it will likely be deleted. We only create templates for normal service. If you want to know how to edit subway station infoboxes to display temporary closures or changes, take a look at what User:Acps110 did to Carroll Street and Fourth Avenue / Ninth Street. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 16:09, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
Re: Monk
I've noticed many of the articles are, sadly, disappearing. I'll look for sources on existing articles soon. Usually what I do is go to Google and do an advanced search for the episode name and then narrow it down to "News" and then even further by searching only for articles published within a week of the episode's first airing. This gives all news articles a week before and a week after the episode airs, and gives guest star casting sources, a few sources on production, and various sources on reviews and the number of viewers.
I hope this helps, and I should be able to find enough free time in the near future to help out a little more. I haven't had much time lately to make many major edits, unfortunately. Kevinbrogers (talk) 01:13, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Spider-Man 3
Please note that your recent edits to the Spider-Man 3 plot summary added a significant amount of detail and have been reverted per WP:FILMPLOT.

There are also specific guidelines for films, musicals, television episodes, anime/manga, novels and non-fiction books. Thank you. -- Doniago (talk) 16:13, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
Edit summaries
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits.

Thank you. –BMRR (talk) 19:10, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
Plot summaries
Hi there,
I see this had been pointed out to you in the past, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that WP:TVPLOT asks that plot summaries on TV episode articles be between 200 and 500 words long. If a plot summary is too long and detailed, it can risk being a copyright violation of the original work.
You recently extended the plot summary on "A Study in Pink" from being slightly too long (890 words) to much too long (4,019 words). I have reverted your extensions to that and the other two Sherlock episode plot summaries. Improving plot summaries is great, but please do so without extending their length, especially to such a radical degree.
Thank you. Princess Lirin (talk) 00:50, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Gotham City
Hi. I reverted your addition to the Gotham City article, as I previously have with such material from that article. I'm sorry, but we need secondary sources for things such as filming locations, even if you recognize a given location, and the source cited at the end of the passage does not support the material you added. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 14:57, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
- Please stop adding unsourced material to the Gotham City article. While the sources you cited do contain some of the information you added, much of the material is not mentioned at all by them. They make no mention of "undisguised New York City Subway station entrances"; the bridges that are destroyed by Bane's explosives or which are added digitally; Fifth Avenue as the location of rich Gothamites dragged from their apartments (the source says Park Avenue around 84th Street); or the use of the NLR tunnels for the shots of policemen entering the sewers.
- In addition, consecutive citations of the same source in the same paragraph is overkill. If consecutive sentences in a paragraph are all supported by the same source, then one citation of it at the end of the last one is sufficient. We don't need an individual citation for each sentence.
- Lastly, remember when using citation templates that certain values in the template must be filled in, or they will result in citation errors, like the one seen at the bottom of this section, which was caused by not including the source title.

Replaceable fair use File:TamaraFeldman.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:TamaraFeldman.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy.

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.

Harry Callahan (character)
Hi. I reverted your edits to Harry Callahan (character) because they were not supported citations of reliable sources, and because it was not relevant to an article on Harry Callahan (though certainly relevant to articles related to the pertinent laws mentioned in the passage). As I'm sure a veteran editor like you knows, Wikipedia cannot accept material lacking cited sources, material obtained through personal knowledge, or which constitutes the an analysis or interpretation by the editor that is not found in cited sources. If you ever have questions, or need help, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 20:11, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:StarsAndBars United A320.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:StarsAndBars United A320.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 23:02, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
Notification of automated file description generation
Your upload of File:Beaver Run SuperChair competition terminal.JPG or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!
