Thank you for your contributions to wikipedia. I noticed that in one of your recent edits you introduced one or more internal links that inappropriately targeted non-existent articles. Articles that will never be created or are not relevant to the article should not be linked. Please see Wikipedia:Only make links that are relevant to the context for more information regarding what should and shouldn't be linked in articles.Wikipediarules2221 04:58, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Redirects to page sections (like Professional_wrestling_attacks#Crooked_arm_lariat) don't work. If you click on the page link above you'll see you don't get redirected. Also, you don't want to use "_". Just use spaces as they appear in the page title ("Professional wrestling attacks"). Fan-1967 20:07, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Bottle-Rockets.band.Mark.Keith.Brian.John.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bottle-Rockets.band.Mark.Keith.Brian.John.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Chowbok ☠ 19:09, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:The Robot Devil.GIF)

Thanks for uploading Image:The Robot Devil.GIF. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Bob Backlund

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Bob Backlund, but we regretfully cannot accept original research. Please find and add a reliable citation to your recent edit so we can verify your work. Uncited information may be removed at any time. Thanks for your efforts, and happy editing!

Fair use rationale for Image:Broom.hilda.logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Broom.hilda.logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 16:26, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Image:The_Robot_Devil.jpg

I have tagged Image:The_Robot_Devil.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you.

Image source problem with Image:Bloodshot.records.logo.gif

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Bloodshot.records.logo.gif. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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:Non-free content, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:42, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Speedy deletion of U.S.S.A.

A tag has been placed on U.S.S.A., requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD A7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. -- WebHamster 17:26, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Ken Wayne

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Ken Wayne, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/profiles/k/ken-wayne.php. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Ken Wayne

A tag has been placed on Ken Wayne requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

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 (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. ninety:one 22:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Derivative works

Hi, it's very likely your artistic renderings constitutes derivate works of non-free images and thus can't be licensed for use here. I've asked Moonriddengirl for confirmation at her talk-page, but I wanted to give you a heads up that they might end up being deleted. Cheers, --aktsu ^(t / c) 23:44, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I'm afraid that Aktsu is right. A derivative work is one that includes major, copyright-protected elements of a prior work, such as the photographs which have been manipulated in these artistic renderings. Only the copyright holder has the right to license derivative works, so without permission from the photographers we are unable to use these. I have deleted the ones for which I've found a clear photographic precursor. Since I did not find a photographic base for File:Artistic rendering of Maniac Mark Lewin as Purple Haze.jpg, I have instead listed it at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2009 October 18. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to stop by my talk page. I appreciate your interest in adding images to these articles, which sorely need them, but unfortunately Wikipedia is restricted to using material that may be freely reproduced. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 01:28, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Austinmayor! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 6 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Tatsutoshi Goto - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Abdul Malik Mujahid - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 06:25, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
