A tag has been placed on The Vox Jaguars requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you.dj (talk) 04:24, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Vox Jaguars – EP

A tag has been placed on Vox Jaguars – EP requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. dj (talk) 04:31, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Userfying Deleted.

From now on, if you want to userfy some of your deleted articles, ask some of these admins or add {{adminhelp}} along with your request to your talk page.--Unionhawk ^Talk 15:10, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{Adminhelp}} Can I please have my The Vox Jaguars article back (put it on this page or e-mail it to me).
Ill just take it back and delete my account. I seems like i wrote it for nothing. Voxfan (talk) 20:18, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Userfied to User:Voxfan/The Vox Jaguars. Sorry if you feel that your work was in vain. Regards So Why 20:28, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{Adminhelp}} I meant the first one that was deleted. Not my repost.Voxfan (talk) 20:30, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's the complete article, i.e. all articles you created at The Vox Jaguars. See the article history to find the correct version (I guess you are referring to this one?) Regards So Why 20:32, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{adminhelp}} Can you please tell me if my article meets the criteria for speedy deletion?Voxfan (talk) 20:55, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an administrator, but currently it does. (It does not assert notability per WP:MUSIC). — neuro^{(talk)(review)} 22:23, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of The Vox Jaguars

A tag has been placed on The Vox Jaguars requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Help request

{{adminhelp}} What could I add then. I think that the influence on other
indie bands and the fact that they shared the stage with famous indie bands is notable enough. Voxfan (talk) 23:42, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

First - this doesn't need an admin; a normal helpme would be fine.

Second - I'll take a look at the article, and respond here soon - should be within about 15 minutes. Chzz ► 23:57, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the speedy delete tag; from Google news, I found enough reliable sources to establish notability per WP:BAND.

I have, however, put a 'refimprove' notice on the article. Myspace, and other such sites that can be edited by anyone, are not reliable sources. Therefore, facts from them should be removed. The only facts in the article should be referenced to things like major newspapers, magazines, etc. Please read WP:V, and then try to find some, or remove the info that can't be verified.

If you need more help, use another {{helpme}} or talk to us live. Chzz ► 00:27, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Sorry it took half hour rather than 15 mins - I did other help requests in-between. Chzz ► 00:29, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{adminhelp}} Since my vox jaguars article is now back in place, can someone restore my Vox Jaguars - EP article? Thank You! Voxfan (talk) 00:31, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck! Chzz ► 02:04, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.

Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.

Play in your user area. For example, create User:Voxfan/test.

Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.

When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

There's lots of information below. Once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

April 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page The Vox Jaguars has been reverted.

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \byoutube\.com (links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb-adiszjdc). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 02:22, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Vox Jaguars

Please do not reverse the edits I made. They more closely meet Wikipedia standards than what was there before. I am trying to help you save the article. ttonyb1 (talk) 03:14, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proxy Servers

{{helpme}} How do you use a proxy server? For example, how do you use www.xamal.info? Voxfan (talk) 00:38, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You mean, to edit on Wikipedia from another IP address? You can't; open proxies are blocked from editing on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Open proxies. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to block users. For general info on what a proxy server is, see Proxy server.

Cheers, Chzz ► 00:54, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Sub Pop Records

Sub Pop are an indie record label; this does not make Nirvana an "indie" rock band. Sub Pop primarily sign grunge artist's to their roster. If you require any assistance on Wikipedia, please do not hesitate to contact me. Scarian ^{Call me Pat!} 03:11, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On Bleach by NIRVANA dicussion...

Okay, I get what you're saying. It's just that anything from a 90's grunge/alternative band, generally gets lumped to one or two genres. I mean, "Polly" by NIRVANA was being called grunge for a while. This site is very nice and informative, but a lot of the time, when it comes to music genres, it sucks. People just generalize with bands. Not saying you do, but a lot of people on the site. Anyway, I'm not trying to say that the whole record is hardcore punk, but enough songs on that record would justify adding it to the box. CheezerRox4502 (talk) 17:21, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:Vox Jaguars in concert.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Vox Jaguars in concert.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Fastily (talk) 03:30, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Vox Jaguars in concert.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Vox Jaguars in concert.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 11:37, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
