Threats edit

Please stop making threats. It hurts you case and if you continue you will soon be blocked from editing. --fvw* 23:41, 22 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Digging a hole (aka Votes for undeletion) edit

Sin-thetik,
Please try to take this advice in the spirit with which it is given: You're screwing yourself here. It's pretty hard to convince people of something while you're waving your arms around and yelling at them. Notice that no one is saying "You're a suck band" or "Your poetry stinks", so please don't take it as if they are. They're simply saying "Not (yet) notable enough" in some cases and "We trust the previous person who said not yet notable enough" in others.

If you have a careful look at WP:MUSIC I think you'll see that is what has warranted the removals that have taken place. Releases need to have a smidge more cred, etc. If you'd presented a case calmly and (shudder) politely, though, these articles might have been saved. The guidelines aren't rules after all. But that's not what's you did.

The remaining page is a good looking one, well put together. And I'd move it into your user-space quickly if I were you, because it's probably going to be deleted. (If you don't know how to move it, ask me and I'll do it for you.) It probably would have been deleted anyway, but I reckon you've sealed it's fate with your actions on the VfU page.

Anyway, welcome to Wikipedia, don't yell so much, try to have fun, etc.

Wikinfo edit

You may be interested in wikinfo, which can be found here. This is another encyclopedia project that anyone can edit. They welcome all kinds of information, with far less insistence on verifiability, notability, and neutral point of view. I see that some of the bio info has already been removed from Davien Crow. I bet you'd have a far easier time making the article the way you want it to be, if it were on wikinfo. Please note that I'm not trying to say you're not welcome at wikipedia; pretty much anyone who wishes to contribute is welcome here. Just thought wikinfo may give you a better chance of making the article the way you want it to be. Friday (talk) 14:45, 23 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Links & Misc Comments edit

stuff I put at User Talk:G4DGET, both before and after she had a block placede on her account. I am putting them here because of your common interest with hers.

I am having a great deal of trouble finding a lot of the references from your links at the deletion page as well as Davien Crow. Is there some way you could edit those so that they go directly to the reference you intend instead of leaving it up to someone who wants to follow up on them to search? If I search on Sin Star I get lots of hits for sin and lots of hits for star. Apparently common words in song titles. (Grateful Dead Dark Star among many others.

On another topic, I have registered on Wikinfo (after seeing Friday's comments) using the handle of Saint (talk there). Still checking it out. On Wikinfo, you have to register and log in to be able to edit. If there is no Wikinfo page when you searching for a certain name, it will allow you to automatically import the Wikipedia article (IFF it still exists) of the same name.

I saw your (G4DGET's) proposal on the AfD page. I must say that I am glad you're looking for compromise, but I'm afraid the view of a lot of active Wkipedians is going to be that three non-notable things together is still non-notable.

Stay cool. Today's IP for WCFrancis without login 22:56, 23 September 2005 (UTC) Oops, got logged out without realizing it. WCFrancis 23:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Image Tagging Image:MindPollutionOLD.jpg edit

 
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:MindPollutionOLD.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. —Bkell (talk) 09:09, 1 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
