My Edits Are Gone IMMEDIATELY!

Hey Electric Eye, thanks for the welcome. I signed up last night, made some major changes to Digital Pianos and Pianos section, and now they are all gone.

I figured it was an error because I just activated my account, so I re-put them back.

Any advice -- they didn't violate rules I don't think?

Hi STV0726. Yes I see what happened. You didn't violate any rules. What happened was a member, who patrols recent changes, removed your edits because he saw that you were a new user making changes without citing references. I looked at your edits and they seem alright to me. If others continue to challenge your changes, you may have to give them a reference to show that your contribution is correct. Let me know if you need help with referencing if it comes to that. --ElectricEye 18:39, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay Thanks. I don't feel good about that however -- my source is owning a Yamaha digital piano, and having played on a Kawai let alone been to their website many times.

I don't quite understand the source siting method.

Referencing is easy. After a sentence add this <ref>NAME OF REFERENCE, AUTHOR, DATE, ETC</ref>. Put in the name of the reference, etc. Then at the bottom of the article make a section ==Notes== and on the line under it put <references/>. Let me know if you need help with this. --User:Electric Eye (talk) 14:52, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Take a look at Guqin and you'll see how it's being done. --User:Electric Eye (talk) 14:54, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Anthonysullivan.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Anthonysullivan.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. Radiant chains (talk) 08:06, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
