Orphaned fair use image (Image:Julietcast.jpg) edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Julietcast.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.

Disambiguation link notification for October 12 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Berenstain Bears' Christmas Tree, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jonathan Lewis. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

St. Augustine's Church (Austin, Minnesota) Comment edit

First, thanks for your work on Wikipedia. In this article you cited a reference with a quote about the founding. It begins: "The was...". I believe it should read: "The church was..." but as it is in a quotation, I am checking with you rather than changing it. --LilHelpa (talk) 12:20, 4 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
