Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Britneyspears07.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Britneyspears07.jpg has a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission, which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3). While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2].

Abdulmatic? I am skeptical..

edit

Hello, what is your source for proclaiming that the new Paula Abdul album is entitled Abdulmatic? A spammer has been repeatedly spamming the Paula Abdul article by saying his website, abdulmatic.com, is the name of the new album, but as far as I can tell, this is not true. Is there a reliable source for this? Thanks! --Jaysweet (talk) 12:45, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
