Peter Blunden

The article you created at Peter Blunden violated our core policy of the neutral point of view. It was also judged to violate our policy on biographies of living individuals. Please do not use Wikipedia as a soapbox. Further edits of this character may lead to your being blocked from editign Wikipedia. Guy 11:39, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

No, it didn't. It lacked biographical details, certainly, because I couldn't find them. And it referred to one recent exchange of Blunden's which was recently reported on Media Watch.

But why is that not relevant? And Blunden, as editor of the Herald Sun, is certainly deserving of a Wikipedia entry. Why'd you delete the entire entry? Garth M 12:00, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:1988-IshCDBackCover236.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:1988-IshCDBackCover236.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.

Absolute rubbish. The image qualifies. I'm a lawyer, and I'll argue it happily with another lawyer or someone else who KNOWS WHAT THE FREAK THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT. I won't keep having this freaking conversation with a haywire bot, though. Garth M (talk) 04:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
