I can't change a band's main picture?

For the Family Force 5 page, the main band picture has not been updated since 2008 I believe. This band also got a new lead singer and drummer in September. It's been 9 months now and no one has uploaded a new picture with the new members. I do not see any way for me to change the picture. Is this because it's protected? Does that mean the old picture will stay on their page until the person who has it protected changes it? Also, is the person who actually submitted the page for the band the only person allowed to change the main band/profile picture? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hannahro95 (talk • contribs) 03:45, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Review of [2]

Hi!

I don't understand if the article i'm working on, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Martin_Haene is still pending for review by an editor or if I have to react in any way. Could you tell me that, please?

Thank you very much for your help and greetings,

FrS

@Sandro.friedrich: I think the problem was caused by removal of the notice declining the submission. This meant you lost track of what was going on. I have restored it. I will pop over to the draft and make some comments there. Please do not delete the boxes and comments declining things. They help you and future reviewers, and are removed on acceptance.

@Sandro.friedrich: What you need to do now, should you choose to, is to look at comments made, consider what you will adopt from them, and, once you have, resubmit the article. This one does need a fair bit of work. Fiddle Faddle 13:39, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Review of [Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&diff=next&oldid=610897325]

Hi! I got a message that an change had been made by an editor: "Wikipedia page Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk has been changed by Footer44"

Except all it displays is an article about tennis which doesn't have to do with me. Can you check this? Thank you!

Best,

The diff which you linked to looks like you starting a post. I'm guessing that the notification system thought that Footer44, who started a thread right below you, was responding to your thread. APerson (talk!) 20:11, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Nate Fakes

Hello,

I was just curious to why the submission to include Nate Fakes was rejected and if there are any edits I can do to help improve it.

Thanks!

It looks like FoCuSandLeArN, who reviewed the submission, linked you to WP:ARTIST. It doesn't look like Nate Fakes meets that guideline yet. You may also want to focus on meeting WP:GNG, which doesn't cover artists specifically, by adding more reliable, independent sources about Nate Fakes as sources. You should cite phrases like "He is also known for his work". Although it is not required, since the submission contains multiple sources which focus on only one sentence in the submission (e.g. the "Knocking on Heaven's Door" mention), you should look at Citation Style 1.

Review of User:Nidhitanusri/sandbox

Why my article is rejectedNidhitanusri (talk) 19:53, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As the two reviewers who looked at the submission said, your article needs more reliable sources so that the content in it can be verified.

Please re-submit the article only after adding some. Thanks! APerson (talk!) 20:05, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/KKAnini

biography of auguste francois michaut thanks for creating the article but i do not understand why it appears in google search as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:KKAnini/sandbox and not https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auguste-Fran%C3%A7ois_Michaut how to change it? KKAnini (talk) 21:16, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That's down to Google. Google will probably update itself in a few days. If not, you could ask for the redirect to be deleted. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:27, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
