Nice edit to Frank Sinatra, I've wondered about the origins of that for a while! Gareth E Kegg 21:56, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:CommodoreDecker.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 03:12, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Addition of religion or sexual categories to articles about living people

Please see our policy about adding categories about religious or sexual identity to articles about living people. Such categories may only be added if there is text in the article discussing that identity cited to a reliable source in which the living person self-identifies with the religion or sexual-orientation. Even then, the religion is required to be significant to the subject's notability, which is not usually the case. Please do not add such categories to articles unless properly discussed and sourced in the article itself. Yworo (talk) 20:05, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Correct usage of categoies

Please also note that an article goes only into the narrowest appropriate category and is not also included in any parent categories of that narrowest category. Therefore, in someone is included in "Eastern Orthodox Members of Congress (U.S.)", they should not also be put in "Eastern Orthodox Christians from the United States" or "Greek Orthodox Christians".
