Image:Mates_Alcoholism.jpg listed for deletion

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Mates_Alcoholism.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Harryboyles 11:48, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Reading Youth

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Reading Youth, by WWGB (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Reading Youth seems 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.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Reading Youth, 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 contact the bot operator 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 06:43, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unofficial English Premier League Championships

If you are going to add information about this topic to the Premier League article, you need to provide a source. If you do not add one, it will be removed. --Scottmsg 05:01, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

G-Star

A tag has been placed on G-Star, 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 G-Star 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:G-Star 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. 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. Lancevortex (talk) 19:05, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why I nominated G-Star for deletion

I didn't delete the article (only an admin can do that), but I did nominate it for deletion. The reason is given above, but to clarify: the article had already, by consensus, been speedily deleted. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/G-Star for the discussion on why it was deleted in the first place. It is not acceptable to recreate a speedily deleted article without making changes to make it worthy for inclusion in an encyclopedia.

As well as that, the article was full of untruths. The "Kennet Award" of which you speak appears to not exist, as the only Google reference to it is the G-Star article itself. The links to this award in the article pointed to something completely different. G-Star has not had a top 50 single. If you dispute this, please point me in the direction of some independent sources. --Lancevortex (talk) 09:05, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism Warning

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Mkdw ^talk 02:41, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

August 2007

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for vandalism, disruption. Please stop. You're welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 02:59, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Gr55tay (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I have absolutely no idea what the fudge this is all about! I used wikipedia to alter a spelling mistake on the main "WIKIPEDIA" article, and then went to youporn.com. I NEVEr vandalise other members' articles or talk pages! That's just un-ethical. I feel as thougvh this ban is aimed at the wrong person. If it's not, then I'm sorry, but i shall have to stop using the unfair system that is wikipedia.

Decline reason:

The record shows that you have made the edits listed below. If someone else is using your username and password, you are still responsible for their edits, so it's important not to give your password to others, or to log out if you are using a public computer. — FisherQueen (Talk) 01:24, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Er, could you explain some of these edits, then? [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]. Where you say you're correcting a spelling error, you're actually introducing one, whether maliciously or accidentally. – Luna Santin (talk) 01:07, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay - I admit that i may have been wrong about volenteers, but I have absolutely no idea how the talk pages got edited - and I certainly can't block people! The insult to chairboy is kinda funny (sorry mate, but it is a little bit), but it wasn't me. I have absolutely no idea why these edits have been done - even thougvh they have used my name & pass - and I have no idea who could have done them. To summarise, I have no idea about anything...))

If that's the case, your account's been comrpomised -- how can we be sure we're talking to "you"? – Luna Santin (talk) 01:22, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I would say ask me anything, but then how would you know the answer??? Would you think that the best idea would be to create a new account or just hope nobody else gets called a penis?? I still wish to share the vastness of my intellect with other Wiki users, yet am unsure as to what my next move should be. A little help wouldn't go amiss...

Wikipedia will manage without the vastness of your intellect for 72 hours. When you come back, you're welcome to contribute usefully. If your account really has been compromised, just change your password when you are unblocked- and don't give it to anyone this time. -FisherQueen (Talk) 01:29, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But what happens if I can't release my knowledge upon the glorious people at Wiki, and the grey matter can't take it? My head might EXPLODE!!! By not relinquishing my ban, you may be assisting in murder / suicide (unsure as to what it would be classed as) and could be liable for prosecution. Also, please spare a thought for my dear mother who would walk in upon hearing a large BANG to find my head on the ceiling with random post-it-notes full of random trivia stuck out of my nostrils. All because I can't vent upon wiki(in a nice, polite, non-vandalitic way). Admins - please have mercy, and stop my mother hurting her back cleaning me up...This is my final plea...PLEA.

When we make a comment, we always sign it. You can do this by adding four tildes- the code looks like ~~~~. -FisherQueen (Talk) 01:38, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry - is this better?Gr55tay 01:39, 14 August 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Yes, that's how one signs a post. Now, since you're blocked for several days... go read a book or something. There's a new Harry Potter volume out. -FisherQueen (Talk) 01:42, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Mates Alcoholism.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mates Alcoholism.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 09:11, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:UPLTrophy.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:UPLTrophy.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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.

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}} 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.
