Please do not continue to restore File:JasonHartman01.jpg to the article Jason Hartman. Fair use (non-free) images are considered replaceable for identifying living people, per Wikipedia:Non-free content#Unacceptable use, Images - Item 12.

License tagging for File:JasonHartman02.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading File:JasonHartman02.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 08:05, 2 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Rachel Stevens edit

Please do not add back content sourced from tabloids as you did on the Rachel Stevens article. Wikipedia cannot include every bit of content simply because it has a source. There are certain sources we simply do not accept as reliable and that includes The Sun and News of the World (both of which are used to source the content I removed) because they are both tabloids and both known to make up stories. Please see the policy regarding reliable sources and verifiability. Also, since Stevens is a living person, we need to be mindful of the content that is included in her biography and again, tabloids are not acceptable for any article. Further, please look at an edit before you simply undo it. I also made other changes to formatting and references which you undid because you were returning poorly sourced content back into the article. Thanks. Pinkadelica 19:12, 13 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Cat Who Went Bananas edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of The Cat Who Went Bananas, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://harrietklausner.wwwi.com/review/the_cat_who_went_bananas. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of The Cat Who Went Bananas edit

 

A tag has been placed on The Cat Who Went Bananas 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 07:37, 1 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Please note, removing speedy deletion templates from pages that you created, as you did here, is inappropriate, even if you believe that you have fixed the identified problem. As stated in the template You should have placed {{hangon}} below the template and then explained why you believed the article should not be deleted on its talk page. --AussieLegend (talk) 11:37, 1 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:JHughes.jpg edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:JHughes.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:19, 1 November 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. AussieLegend (talk) 13:19, 1 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for File:JHughes.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:JHughes.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.

Proposed deletion of The Cat Who Went Bananas edit

 

The article The Cat Who Went Bananas has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced since 2009; merge/redirect to The Cat Who...?

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.
