Thanks for uploading Image:Eb97 1.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

List of The White Stripes awards for WP:FLC

edit

I recommend you bring the article to FLC because it's pretty much there. I stumbled across the article and saw that you had done the bulk of the work; you should go ahead and nominate it as it deserves that FL star :) Gary King (talk) 02:20, 14 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, they are one of my favorite bands and so I stumbled across the article. It's not that far off from FL so it'd be nice to see it get that star. Gary King (talk) 22:04, 14 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

First i've supportet the white stripes awards and you should really consider to nominate the White Stripes discography. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 13:15, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the support, have you got any nominated lists currently? And I probably will re-submit the discography if the awards looks certain to get passed. Red157(talkcontribs) 16:35, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Yeah i have. The current are Josh Homme discography (re-nominated), List of Bryan Adams awards, List of Soundgarden band members and List of Roman Emperors and i'm pretty sure that the award list will pass. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 18:09, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
It's good you've re-submitted the Josh Homme discography. Though I think more people need to be educated about how different Josh Homme is to most musicians with discographies. He's basically like Eric Clapton, as in he's the founder of so many bands. Will look at your other lists. Red157(talkcontribs) 18:49, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
On another thing, I'm glad you've started bring Rated R up to scratch, but per wikipedia conduct, I've had to remove the category names with currently no content. I think you should create yourself a Sandbox for future use. Red157(talkcontribs) 19:17, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
First thanks for your support. And i'm goin to expand those sections/categories, i did the same thing with the Waking Up the Neighbours article. But its not that importent anyway. Oh and i do have a sandbox see User:Be Black Hole Sun/Sandbox i just don't use it that much. Be Black Hole Sun (talk · contribs)

Thanks and i couldn't help it so i fixed somethings on the Feast discography oh and remember the FLN for List of Bryan Adams awards expires today or tomorrow i think. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 17:38, 16 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yeah its great that the Josh Homme discography became a FL and i've supported the White Stripes list. Oh do you really think that the Reckless (album) should became a Good topic.

Haha, I'm surprised someone noticed. I thought as I was planning to vanish, I may as well remove it. And that QOTSA info is certinly wiki-worthy, but besides purchasing an issue of NME (Something I've realised contravenes my policy of not buying NME) I'm not sure how to add it. Good news on the music front, though. Red157(talkcontribs) 18:26, 3 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re: List of awards and nominations received by The White Stripes

edit

Well I removed "Shockwaves NME Awards", not all of NME. I did that because there isn't a Wikipedia article solely dedicated to the award, so I don't think it's sufficiently notable enough to be included in the awards list. This has been a constant problem – including non-notable awards, and it's been decided that if an awards show has its own dedicated article to the awards ceremony (not the parent of the awards ceremony, like a magazine), then it can be included in the awards list. Gary King (talk) 15:25, 5 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

The "Shockwaves NME Awards" is the NME Awards. Shockwaves is just the sponsor. Both the British NME Awards and NME Awards USA are present on that page. Red157 (talkcontribs) 15:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:NoOneKnows.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:NoOneKnows.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:35, 10 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:Tmb 060301fivefifteeners14.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Tmb 060301fivefifteeners14.jpg. I noticed that 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.

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 13:14, 31 August 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 13:14, 31 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Them Crooked Vultures and 3RR

edit

Thanks I appreciate your note on my talk and it appears that you did break WP:3RR in letter and spirit, but I don't see any point in reporting it, as you are clearly willing to discuss the matter on talk there and at my user page. I don't see any compelling reason to include some other acts, but if their inclusion is supported by sourced text in the article, then it's fine (actually desirable.) I would recommend that once you have inserted relevant portions into the text and that the text in question has verifiable citations, you add an HTML comment justifying it, because I can easily see someone coming along to delete them as I did. If you need to respond, please do so on my talk. —Justin (koavf)TCM18:46, 21 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

edit

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
