[edit]Hi! You could use an existing article as a template ofcourse, but if this is your first article I'd recommend that you create it in your own userspace for now, for example at User:Rsooch/What Goes Around, take your time and write the article according to various policies. This will help to avoid that the article is deleted as being either a copy of another, or not having enough sources etc. The article can then later be moved to a proper location. As for the article name already redirecting to the Timberlake song, just go ahead and open [1], remove the redirect and substitute it with your own article. But please leave a link on the top using {{other}} to let people know that a song with a similar title also exist.

Speedy deletion of Are You For Real
[edit]A tag has been placed on Are You For Real, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. superβεεcat 22:45, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
How to delete page?
[edit]{{helpme}} My first attempt at adding an article still exists w/title User:Rsooch/What Goes Around. I eventually wrote it correctly with the proper page title What Goes Around. How do I delete User:Rsooch/What Goes Around page, while making sure What Goes Around page remains, or do I need to delete it at all?
- Hi there! Below are some instructions on how to get the page deleted, however, you might want to keep the page if you ever want a 'back up' copy of the page, if it gets deleted.
- You can easily request the deletion of any of your user subpages (or possibly your user page) by adding {{db-userreq}} to the top of page.
- Alternatively, you might consider simply making the page redirect to your user page. This is normally sufficient for most people's needs. There may however be a reason for the page to be kept.
- Only tag for deletion your own personal pages, and only if you have a genuine reason for requesting a personal subpage of yours be deleted.
- Pages which have formerly been in a different namespace and moved to a subpage of the user namespace may not be deleted in this way. These must be listed either at Articles for deletion, or if they were not found originally in the article namespace, at Miscellany for deletion. On the other hand, if you would just like them to be moved back, then by all means ask at Wikipedia:Requested moves.
- Hope this helps!

[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Camille - back cover photo 2014.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) 00:20, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 14
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bass Player's 100 Greatest Bass Players, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bass Player. 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.

Orphaned non-free image File:Bass Player magazine "The 100 Greatest Bass Players", Feb 2017.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Bass Player magazine "The 100 Greatest Bass Players", Feb 2017.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 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:08, 9 April 2017 (UTC)
