Speedy deletion nomination of David Jevans

A tag has been placed on David Jevans requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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.

I guess speedy really means speedy... page was deleted after I added the hangon tag and while I was editing the talk page. Guess I'm not used to such speedy wiki pages. I'll try to make sure I get all the content sorted before finalising the page next time! Endareth (talk) 03:23, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It may be easier to recreate the page in your user space (i.e. user:Endareth/David Jevans). That way, you can work on it at your leisure and not worry about it getting tagged. Then, when it is ready, you can move it to main space. :) Happy editing, Javért | ^Talk 03:25, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, was thinking something along those lines. Most of my wiki editing has been on rather more relaxed sites :) — Endareth^Talk–Edits 03:39, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:IronKey Cap Off.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:IronKey Cap Off.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calvin 1998 ^(t·c) 01:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not 100% compos mentis at the moment, but if I interpret all this correctly, it almost boils down to the fact that I need to take a picture of my own and upload it to replace that one? When I looked around for a picture to use for this originally, pretty much every single one was from the IronKey media pack. Sorry if I'm misreading this, still in recovery mode... — Endareth^Talk–Edits 03:52, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
