Your submission at Articles for creation

edit
 

I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Modulate. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's a video tutorial - hit play, then right-click for "full screen".

Here's an example of how to add references:

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea.<ref> Smith, John. "[http://foonews.com/Article42 Interview with Chzz]", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22. </ref>

== References ==

{{reflist}}

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at #wikipedia-en-help connect.

File permission problem with File:Modulate Promo shot 3 Feb 2010 (ALL USE MUST BE CREDITED (c) Nick Benk 2010).jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Modulate Promo shot 3 Feb 2010 (ALL USE MUST BE CREDITED (c) Nick Benk 2010).jpg, which you've sourced to http://gp1.wac.edgecastcdn.net/802892/production_public/Photo/3621281/image/Modulate_promo_2__c__Nick_Benke_2010_1290013562.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:24, 30 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Modulate (band) accepted at AFC

edit
 
Modulate (band), which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

You are more than welcome to continue making quality contributions to Wikipedia. Note that because you are a logged-in user, you can create articles yourself, and don't have to post a request. However, you are more than welcome to continue submitting work to Articles for Creation.

Thank you for helping improve Wikipedia!

The main thing that the article was missing on the previous submission was inline citations - which you addressed. The band meets Wikipedia:Notability (music) because of chart success in major countries and because of national/international tours (points 2, 4 and 1 were met).

I see that you used a promotional image at Commons - I'm an admin there too. Promotional images are not allowed at either website - only images that you took yourself. Using anything that you didn't take is an illegal copyright violation. There are lots of people watching out for illegal images. I have removed it from the article so that it can be deleted. Royalbroil 06:17, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
(You're reply) Hi Royalbroil! Thank you for your help and approving my article! I have one quick question with regards to images. I totally understand why the picture was deleted as what you told me about copyright and in hindsight it does makes sense, so my question is can the person who took the picture upload to it into wikipedia and put it on the article himself as an edit on the article that I created? Thanks once again! :) Sydirasky (talk) 15:08, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
If the person who took the photograph uploaded it to Wikipedia and selected a valid free license - then yes - they could upload it to Wikipedia. However, it would be viewed suspiciously and the uploader would need to prove it. The process is found here. Royalbroil 01:49, 27 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
