Image copyright problem with Image:Pam Smart.jpg edit
Thank you for uploading Image:Pam Smart.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 05:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
==Fair use rationale for
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Pamela Smart.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 image 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 '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 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Duplicate images uploaded edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Pamela Smart.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Pam Smart.jpg. The copy called Image:Pam Smart.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.
This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot (talk) 05:59, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Pamela Smart. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ~ akendall 06:19, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Addresses and phone numbers edit
Thank you for your contributions, but please do not add addresses and phone numbers to Wikpedia articles. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a directory, and white-pages or yellow-pages type information is not appropriate. Thanks, --MCB (talk) 21:51, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Sharee Miller 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 person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance 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 biographies.
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 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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ged UK (talk) 20:04, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
June 2008 edit
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Sharee Miller, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Ged UK (talk) 20:19, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Many small edits edit
Just a tip: Did you know that you can use the "Show preview" button to check your edits without making a record in the change log? Also, it is highly recommended that when your changes are ready, you enter a summary with your changes, then click "Save page." Is this thing working? (talk) 08:44, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for creating various articles on criminals. However, we cannot include all criminals, even ones who commit particularly vicious crimes, or we'd be inundated with articles. Please check WP:NOTABILITY in future. Ironholds 20:03, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you've been working on this article. Under WP:BLP, it really needs stronger references, or else much of the content would have to come out. There's a long series of articles about her and the murder on trutv.com that might help you, if you're up for the task. I'd be happy to help in a secondary role, but since I know I don't have time to do it myself I thought I'd throw that link your way and get your thoughts. Thanks.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
