License tagging for Image:U15.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:U15.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 10:07, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:U15.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:U15.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. PxMa 15:42, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Homelessness edits

Hello. Your point was well taken about broadening the scope of health care for the homeless, in the Homelessness article, to bring in the UK model, etc. Thanks. -- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 00:34, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Beatles

I agree with you. It's a big jump from the record contract to American releases.--andreasegde (talk) 14:12, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Link additions

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used as a platform for advertising or promotion, and doing so is contrary to the goals of this project. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 10:13, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Top of the Pops LPs

Hi,

I noticed that (for I think the second time) you have redirected Top of the Pops volue 18 LP (and I assume Volume 20) to the main Top of the Pops Album Series page, thereby effectively removing the original pages. While I agree that all the individual albums in this series don't need pages, these two do.

The reason is that they both made number 1 on the UK national LP chart. That makes them notable in itself - and, there's a wiki page listing all the UK number 1 albums, with links to the individual pages. Also, the success of these LPs was instrumental in getting the chart rules changed so that budget LPs were no longer permitted, so they have a minor place in recording history. This has been covered in publications like Mojo, the Hit Albums chart books, at least two BBC radio documentaries etc.

So, I think they are certainly notable and need their own pages. Do you agree? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MegdalePlace (talk • contribs) 11:02, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Megdale, thanks for getting in touch to discuss this. I can recall buying some of the Top of the Pops albums, and I'm certainly aware that there is a nostalgic cult interest in the series, so even though the main article is unreferenced, it is likely that it can be supported by reliable sources (as required by our notability guidelines such as WP:GNG) if someone was prepared to put in the research needed. That main article - Top of the Pops (record series) - would certainly be the place to detail the greatest commercial successes of the series. If any particular individual album had been written about enough in reliable sources to generate sufficient material for a standalone album, and it had citations back to the sources, it could be split off from the main article per WP:Summary style. So I think the first thing to do is find good quality sources for the main article, and then to build up information on key albums within that main article. When you think you have enough material to split an album out into a standalone article, let me know and I'll take a look to give you further advice.
