Orphaned fair use image (Image:SolidRockRecords.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:SolidRockRecords.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Non-free use disputed for Image:VoxHumanaAlbum.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:VoxHumanaAlbum.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)^(Talk) 01:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:The77s.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:The77s.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 06:01, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Theo Obrastoff

A tag has been placed on Theo Obrastoff, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD A7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. -- WebHamster 02:20, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So speedy you aren't even letting me finish typing. Solkaige 02:29, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message on my user talk page. In answer: How about reading WP:N and WP:MUSIC before finishing the article? ---- WebHamster 02:41, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Read them. Doesn't change anything. This isn't the first article I've written for Wikipedia. But it is the first one that was marked for deletion before I even started. Solkaige 02:44, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

October 2007

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself, as you did with Theo Obrastoff. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. -- WebHamster 02:32, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tit for tat

Please don't indulge in childish tit-for-tat antics. Disrupting WP to make a WP:POINT can get you blocked. Also making obvious bad faith CSD nominations can similarly get you into trouble. The {{db-bio}} tag (which, incidentally, should have been {{db-band}}) which you left on The Hamsters has been removed by myself as a bad faith nomination. ---- WebHamster 10:38, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As regards notability "from what you can tell" is irrelevant, what counts is WP guidelines. If you take the time to peruse the history of The Hamsters article you will see that it was nominated for AfD and was kept. For the uninitiated that means that it's already passed notability by consensus. Incidentally that was a bad faith nomination too, and its instigator eventually received a blocking. Now as you stated I didn't create the article, so removing a CSD notice is NOT considered to be vandalism. It's only considered vandalism when the article's creator deletes it. Now is there any other info you need on how Wikipedia runs or do you intend breaking more of the rules? Judging by the answer you gave on your article's talk page you need to learn more about notability, sources and citations etc. Please see WP:RS and WP:MUSIC for guidelines ---- WebHamster 00:35, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know how it works. I've been here a long time. Now, drop the attitude. Solkaige 00:38, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Sources for what?" makes it appear that you don't, as does several other of your assertions and misunderstanding of how CSD tags work. I have no attitude, I've attempted to help you with pointers to the necessary guidelines to enable you to become a more effective editor. I have remained polite and civil, in spite of your attempts at goading me with your bad faith CSD nominations. Incidentally I've just seen your article and in spite of your long experience you appear to have misunderstood how to do inline citations and footnotes. Please see WP:References as a guide. ---- WebHamster 00:43, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You have remained civil and polite while insulting me and my articles continuously... and while trying to get them deleted before they're started? How about letting someone else give me pointers? Solkaige 00:47, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

THe reason I asked "sources for what?" was because there were no outrageous claims or wild statements in the article. All pretty simple and direct bio information... easily sourced for anyone with a search engine. Do we need a source to prove that he is a songwriter? A source to prove he had a son that died? 00:50, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Please make up your mind, I can't be civil and polite AND insulting. For your further education though I will explain why your article was flagged for deletion. As soon as you click save your article becomes live and as such comes under the rules/guidelines of Wikipedia. At the time I flagged the article there was no assertion of notability whatsoever in the article. The corollary to this is that don't make an article live until it fulfils the necessary criteria. You can do this by either using preview mode or you can create the article in your own user space until it's ready to go live then move it across to article space. Meanwhile you article still does not meet the criteria for notability, and won't until you supply substantial, independent and non-trivial sources for all claims made in the article. For example do you have sources that demonstrate that substantial sales have been made on the CDs in the discography. Do you have sources that show his touring schedule, do you have sources that show that there was an agreement for other musicians to come and help him create a disk. Don't forget that in this day and age the world and his wife can easily make CDs themselves and sell them. This doesn't mean that merely because they have more than 2 CDs that they meet the criteria of WP:MUSIC. The article says a lot but doesn't verify any of it per WP:RS. Meet those conditions and I'll be perfectly happy to removed the prod notice myself. Alos please don't feel that you ahve to reply on both our talk pages. If it makes it easier for you just reply on yours. ---- WebHamster 01:00, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, some of what you claim is not there - IS there. The Interview with Terry Taylor linked discusses the making of the album and the "agreement for other musicians to come and help him create a disk." I should be able to find tour information.. I came across some while writing the other parts of the article.

You seem to be forgetting the "independent" part of the sources requirement. A series of emails is not considered to be an appropriate source per WP:RS. Please read that link. Self published press releases and material of that ilk is not suitable. ---- WebHamster 01:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Define substantial sales. Show me other independent or minor artists article that gives sales figures in their articles. I'm not even seeing that in the guidelines. (The "polite and civil" was sarcasm, by the way) Solkaige 01:09, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's accomplished ordinarily by demonstrating that the CDs are on a notable label (independent or otherwise). Specific sales figures aren't required. I apologise if I gave the impression that they were. What I was attempting to get across is that a list of self published CDs that are sold in 3-figure numbers at a church meeting doesn't cut it. Another way is to demonstrate a chart listing. ---- WebHamster 01:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited the article to show you how to use inline citations, and added the references section. I've removed the email interview from inline as it doesn't meet WP:RS, I've left it in the external links though. I'm not 100% sure that the Tollgate interview meets RS either but giving the benefit of the doubt I've left it in there. As regards the book, to conform to convention you need to supply an ISBN number as that tends to be a standard indicator that the publication isn't a vanity press publication. ---- WebHamster 01:38, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WebHamster's attitude seems to be one of following guidelines and pointing these out to you. Nothing wrong with that.

Of course it's irritating to have an article you're working on marked in one way or another for deletion. It has happened to me. (Just one example I can think of offhand.) The solution is simple:

Ensure that the subject of a proposed article meets notability guidelines, etc.
Prepare the article in a subpage of your own userspace (e.g. here) until it reaches the point where it clearly demonstrates notability, is well sourced, etc etc. (Keep categories commented out, or don't add them.)
Cut the article to your computer's clipboard.
Open the redlinked page of the article to be.
Paste in the content.
Add (or de-comment) categories.
Preview, fiddle, save, announce it to your chums.

Pretty easy. Of course you can keep reusing your draft subpage for one article after another, and can invite people to help you there too. -- Hoary 00:55, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First, he "marked it for speedy deletion" before he said a word to me or gave a single "pointer." He also marked it for "speedy deletion" almost as fast as I started typing it. It wasn't even started yet. Thats nothing but rude... how about waiting to see what it becomes first? Second, the "attitude" I'm referring to has nothing to do with simply "pointing out guidelines." That could have been done without the snotty comments about my "long experience" with Wikipedia, etc. Its unnecessary. Solkaige 00:59, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uh huh. So what do you now want to do: Create a new article that you fear he may delete, resurrect an article that you think was unfairly deleted, or something else? (Please explain here, please don't bother to explain on my own talk page.) I've already explained how to do the former. As for the latter, see this. If you want help with something else, ask. -- Hoary 01:05, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Theo Obrastoff

Theo Obrastoff, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Theo Obrastoff satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Theo Obrastoff and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Theo Obrastoff during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. -- WebHamster 02:20, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect of When Worlds Collide (album)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on When Worlds Collide (album), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because When Worlds Collide (album) is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting When Worlds Collide (album), 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.

Proposed deletion of Robbie Buchanan

The article Robbie Buchanan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable musician. Has worked with several important people and has arranged works for film, but none has earned the subject any press. Does not meet WP:MUSICBIO, although No. 10 might be close as he arranged music for notable works.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
