License tagging for Image:Yvette Fielding.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Yvette Fielding.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:13, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Lyrics edit

Please don't add song lyrics to wikipeida, like you did to Walk This Way, it is a copyright violation. Oysterguitarist 15:01, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

As per Oysterguitarist's comment, please don't add lyrics as you did with Sexy! No No No.... Thanks. ~~ [Jam][talk] 15:14, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
For that matter, please don't add any lyrics to Wikipedia. ~~ [Jam][talk] 15:18, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

S Club 7 Go Wild! edit

I was just wondering where you got your information from. If you copied it directly from a site, it will need to be rewritten. However, if you wrote it all yourself, that's okay. :) The page just needs a little copyedit. Thanks for contributing nevertheless though. - ǀ Mikay ǀ 18:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Don't worry about it. You're doing fine. You just need to make sure you can back things up. Currently, there is a "This article reads like an advertisement" tag on the article, so you need to make sure there isn't any bias. (Even if it is tempting to say S Club were the greatest, which I'm fully, fully aware of!) I'll have to go through it and conform it to Wikipedia standards, but you've made a great start! Definitely saved me a job. :) - ǀ Mikay ǀ 10:09, 21 October 2007 (UTC) (P.S. You did put it in the right place)Reply


Fair use rationale for Image:S Club Party Live Dvd Cover.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:S Club Party Live Dvd Cover.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.

Colours on Template:Girls Aloud edit

Aside from a perhaps "stylistic" preference you have, is there any reason why you added colours to the template? It doesn't really add anything to the template, and may make it more difficult for people with colour blindness or other disabilities to use it. ~~ [Jam][talk] 18:43, 19 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Spelling and grammar edit

Hi. When updating pages, please make sure to use proper spelling and grammar. I had to correct your changes to the Tangled Up Tour recently, and it looks like I'll have to do the same for The Sound of Girls Aloud: The Greatest Hits Tour. If you are unsure of spelling and grammar, copy your changes into a program with a spell checker before adding it to Wikipedia. Thanks. ~~ [Jam][talk] 15:45, 17 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

June 2008 edit

  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Girls Aloud videography. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. ~~ [Jam][talk] 06:23, 1 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

July 2008 edit

  Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia articles, such as those you made to Template:Girls Aloud, even if your ultimate intention is to fix them.

Image copyright problem with Image:Girlsaloud passions.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Girlsaloud passions.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 21:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

"TBA" album edit

Please don't add this to Girls Aloud pages or templates until the name of the album has been confirmed. It is unnecessary and speculation. Thanks. ~~ [Jam][talk] 20:13, 11 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Girls Aloud gallery edit

As per Rodhullandemu's previous comment - "non-free content is not permitted in galleries, and this is an overuse anyway" - I've reverted your edit again. I'm sure it was a good faith edit, but we can't allow it - sorry! ~~ [Jam][talk] 21:28, 6 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've replied to your message on my talk page. ~~ [Jam][talk] 21:34, 6 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Girls Aloud: Out Of Control edit

I specifically included a source from The Sun newspaper that specified the picture as official artwork for the forthcoming album. I have already had the image removed by one administrator, and I explained why it should remain, which they were content with - if you had any doubts about the image's eligibility, you should have checked the Page's History and all asssociated comments. I will be undoing your edits in good faith, and if you make any other changes to my work, I would appreciate a comment in my Talk page explaining them. --Daibh (talk) 22:16, 9 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Girls Aloud Tangled Up Tour edit

The image I added was a higher resolution image, taken during the DVD night of the Tangled Up tour. It is a clear shot of all the girls, and is ultimately more suitable for this article. Your removal of the image was inappropriate, and further alterations will be reported to administrators. Higher Quality images should always replace those of lower resolution, you should not edit pages to reflect your own preference for images, simply because they are yours. Regards --Daibh (talk) 22:29, 9 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Higher resolution images should only replace lower resolution images if permitted by the image licensing. A higher quality image of a fair use image, for example, would not be appropriate. Just so you are both aware :). ~~ [Jam][talk] 23:08, 9 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

The image in question is one from my own collection. It therefore meets the requirements of being license-free AND higher resolution. Your warning is valid, but not entirely relevant to the image in question. --Daibh (talk) 00:53, 10 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I know it isn't relevant as such (because the images involved are personal license-free images) - but best to keep that in mind in case you end up dealing with fair use images.

"Number one singles" box edit

Per this TfD, we don't use "number one singles" boxes on Wikipedia, just in case you weren't aware. ~~ [ジャム][talk] 22:34, 26 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Some advice... edit

When re-creating deleted articles, it is probably a good idea to see why they were deleted in the first place. In the case of the tours, there were no sources. Your new article (although still in development it seems) still has no sources, and so will probably get deleted. It might be a good idea to re-create it in your personal space (User:Liamr02/Sound of Girls Aloud tour for example), then move it into the main article space once it is suitable enough and meets the notability criteria. ~~ [ジャム][talk] 22:29, 7 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of The Sound of Girls Aloud: The Greatest Hits Tour edit

 

A tag has been placed on The Sound of Girls Aloud: The Greatest Hits Tour, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. Rwiggum (Talk/Contrib) 00:07, 8 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Validity of reasoning edit

Hi! Do you have a valid reason for reverting my edits to the O2 article? One reference for Snow Patrol was removed entirely... --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 22:01, 10 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

It's an opinion. However, that would make the entire table trivial as well... --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 20:21, 11 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Do we really need a ticket availability section? Surely that's even more trivial? Certainly unencyclopedic and smacks of advertising... sold outs could go back in the notes section. It would be reasonable to assume that those events with no "sold out" on display are still (or are yet to go) on sale... --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 20:36, 11 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
It serves more purpose than a table full of facts including such sections as ticket availability. Do you propose to continually add each event to this table and add no prose whatsoever to the page? Not even an allusion to the event that opens the venue? I'm not trying to claim ownership of the page but when I created it I did not expect it to descend into having the prose systematically removed and replaced with a table full of unencyclopedic information... --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 23:44, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Well the point I was trying to make was that both could exist. When the venue opens the table could show future events. When these events are shown to have some extra importance they could be written about in a "history" or some such section. Presumably we can assume the opening event to be of sufficient notability for this purpose. Some readers don't like infoboxes and tables and might prefer prose. There doesn't seem to be any reason to prevent the usage of both. --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 23:59, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Sorry to see that. Perhaps a demonstration of why prose is more appropriate. Not all editors would be so lenient and one has deleted the entire table, refs and all. In all fairness, the advertisement of ticket availability was bound to attract attention. --➨Candlewicke  :) Sign/Talk 00:09, 15 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries and removing referenced content edit

Please don't forget to provide edit summaries. You forgot on Girls Aloud discography. I should let you know that I have reverted your removal of the St Trinians theme from the table. It did chart, even though it was not released as an official single. I have added a footnote to this effect. Removing it makes the page un-comprehensive. Adding the footnote ensures the information stays. Regards, Matthewedwards (talk contribs  email) 03:07, 4 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Bolding edit

Please do not boldface #1 chart positions in discographies, album articles and single articles. Bolding violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. See Wikipedia:Record charts for more info. JayJ47 (talk) 07:12, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

March 2009 edit

  Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Untouchable (Girls Aloud song), even if you intend to fix them later. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. The video you linked to is a copyright violation.

May 2009 edit

  Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Out of Control Tour. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page.
