Regarding edits made during September 21 2006 (UTC)

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. _{J Di}^talk 17:37, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Booty Luv

A tag has been placed on Booty Luv, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to provide more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately, and also put a note on Talk:Booty Luv. An administrator should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 1 under Articles. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such material.

A tag has been placed on Little miss jackson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) 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.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ~Matticus ^T_C 14:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Notability of 2-4 family

A tag has been placed on 2-4 family, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, 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 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 the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Andante1980 13:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use images

Hello. Regarding your edit to Siobhán Donaghy: in accordance with Wikipedia's policies regarding the use of non-free content, please do not use copyright images when an equivalent free image is available. Also please note that using album art is only acceptable in the context of critical commentary of that release – not for identifying the artist or any other use (see WP:FAIR). --Muchness 22:34, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Please do not violate Wikipedia's non-free content criteria by replacing free images with fair use images. Please also note that album covers may be used for identification only in the context of critical commentary of that album, not for illustration of the artist. Thank you. --Muchness 20:46, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Robyn edits

I notice you've been making a lot of editing changes to the Robyn article. Great work, however instead of saving every small change you make, you may consider using one of the sandboxes that are available before you commit your edits to the main page.

Cheers and Happy editing.

Deletion of material

Please do not delete content from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Boyzone, without explaining the reason for the removal in the edit summary. Unexplained removal of content does not appear constructive, and your edit has been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox for test edits. Thank you.--ShelfSkewed Talk 05:46, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Gary Barlow. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. StephenBuxton (talk) 12:40, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to List of characters from Hollyoaks, you will be blocked from editing. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 20:16, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Page protection

Hi. Just a note to let you know that adding the template {{sprotect}} to an article, as you did to Natasha Collins, won't cause the article to be protected. Page protection may only be conferred by an administrator. Thanks. --Popplewick (talk) 20:37, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you. - eo (talk) 14:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Melanie Chisholm

Hi there. I reverted the change you made to the Melanie Chisholm article. CD cover images may only be used on articles with a critical discussion of the album in question; they cannot be used simply to identify the artist. See WP:NONFREE for details. -- JediLofty ^{User ¦ Talk} 15:06, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Blocked!

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may do so after the block expires. Daniel Case (talk) 17:21, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps

Just to remind you that major changes to any article should be discussed on its talk page before making those changes. I would prefer to cooperate but if this set of articles is ever going to achieve good article status, it cannot be a free-for-all. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 17:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Sheridan Smith

It is not possible to use a picture of Janet Keogh on Sheridan Smith's article. This is a breach of the fair-use copyright policy and will get you blocked. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 18:58, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Atomic Kitten, you will be blocked from editing. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 19:14, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Sheridan Smith

I have already told you that it is not permitted to put this picture of Janet Keogh on this article, and this is now your last warning. One more breach of the rules, and you WILL be blocked.--Rodhullandemu (Talk) 16:41, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Blocked again

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 4 days in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for disruption. Please stop. You're welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. —C.Fred (talk) 17:37, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

In particular, I point out two types of edits which led to the block:

1. The repeated adding of non-free (copyrighted) images to biography articles, where such images are not allowed
2. Deletion of section headers, categories, and other necessary structural elements of articles

If you do not understand why you were blocked, please feel free to discuss that here. Once your block expires, I strongly suggest that you discuss changes you want to make to articles on their talk pages before making the changes. —C.Fred (talk) 17:37, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

January 2008

This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did to Hannah Tointon, you will be blocked from editing. You have been warned before about putting fair-use images onto pages where they are not allowed. If you continue to do this, you will be blocked from editing. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 19:20, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

• Hi Rian, you're obviously keen, but you are in danger of being blocked again. Could I suggest you use your personal sandbox to get tables right before copying them to the main article; that way your work won't get deleted. Also, it isn't possible to put fair-use images such as screencaps into tables for TV episodes because it is a requirement of fair use that the use is (i) minimal (ii) used only to convey something that words cannot say as efficiently and (iii) not merely decorative. I'd suggest if you want to carry on with tables, create them here first. If you click on that redlink, it'll let you create the page. Regards, --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 20:18, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Regarding your recent edits to Mutya Buena: I just want to reiterate the above requests to please stop removing legitimate content from articles, including categories, interlanguage links, and valid free images. --Muchness (talk) 16:55, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 month in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for Disruptive editing. Please stop.

Image source problem with Image:52f7io9.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:52f7io9.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.

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 21:31, 26 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chetblong^Talk_Sign 21:31, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use images

Hi. You recently added an image of Justin Burton to Chris Fountain's page. Unfortunately, this is not allowed as the Justin image is fair use, and can only be used on the Justin Burton page. I have removed the image, citing that reason. See WP:FAIRUSE for further details. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 18:40, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

List of Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps episodes

There is no need to state the obvious here. This space is reserved for a plot description of the final episode, and should not be used for anything else. I remind you that you've just come off a one-month block, and it's likely that the next one will be your last. We've tried to be patient with you, but you just don't seem to be getting it. -Rodhullandemu (Talk) 21:40, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Ashley Slanina-Davies

Again, despite having been warned many times about using non-free images in infoboxes, you've added another one. This must stop. I have reverted this, but with the best will in the world, you are about to be blocked indefinitely unless you show that you understand that this is not permitted. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 21:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

• You've been around for quite a while, and although some of your edits are constructive, many are not, and when other editors see these, we have to check ALL of them to make sure you are editing in accordance with policy, and this takes time away form us which we could be using usefully elsewhere. Unless you want to be blocked indefinitely, I'd advise that you either get a grip on policy, especially with respect to how images can be used here, or seek an editor who is prepared to advise you as to editing here. You should take a look at Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User and perhaps put {{subst:dated adoptme}} on your User page; if you don't, I can almost guarantee that you will be blocked indefinitely. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 23:39, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

• Just to echo Rodhullandemu's comments above, please stop adding replaceable non-free images to articles, as you did at Booty Luv, Ashley Taylor Dawson, and various other articles since your block expired. Per Wikipedia's policy on the use of non-free images, "Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." Please respect this policy, it exists to safeguard Wikipedia's mission to produce perpetually free content for unlimited re-use, and to minimize Wikipedia's legal exposure. --Muchness (talk) 10:00, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to List of characters from Hollyoaks, you will be blocked from editing. Please do not remove correctly cited information about characters who are leaving or joining Hollyoaks. Your edits are not constructive, and you will be blocked if you continue to do this. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 16:04, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Blocked again

You have been blocked from editing for a period of three months in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for disruptive editing - persistent misuse of fair-use images. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below.

May 2008

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. --Rodhullandemu 11:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

• ALSO, we do NOT remove Jonny Keogh because he's not in it NOW; he WAS in it for SIX series, and that's good enough reason to keep him in. --Rodhullandemu 11:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

You are also removing information about Hollyoaks characters. Just because an actor or actress is no longer playing a character, we do not remove that information. The encyclopedia is supposed to document the whole history of a programme, not just its current state. This must stop, and if it doesn't you are going to be blocked again, and this time it WILL be indefinite. I am keeping an eye on your edits. --Rodhullandemu 20:10, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

And you added a non-free image to the infobox for Sugababes. Not only have you been warned for this before, your last block was for that. Please stop doing this. This is your last warning --Rodhullandemu 20:23, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits, such as the one you made to List of characters from Hollyoaks.
If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing. To re-iterate Rodhullandemu's comments, please do not remove characters that have not left, introduce characters who haven't arrived yet, and generally mess with the format of pages that are established and already work. Thank you. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 20:21, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

You might want to be consistent when editing articles about members of the same band. Your edits to the articles relating to the various members of Girls Aloud ([1] [2] [3] [4] [5]) seem just bizarre to me. Paul Largo (talk) 18:43, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Rian. Once again you're not adhering to the rules with your recent edit to East 17. It even tells you in the infobox "do NOT put album covers here, it's a breach of (WP:NFCC#1) image policy". By now you should know the protocol - if you carry on you'll end up being blocked indefinitely. Paul Largo (talk) 21:26, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Indeed. You don't seem to have understood this policy at all. It's important, because it could involve Wikipedia in legal problems, and we can live without that. You can take this as your very last and final warning- please understand what images can be used where, and if in doubt, don't. Your next block will be your last one here if you can't get this. Thanks. --Rodhullandemu 21:43, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of one year in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for Rian, we've been more than patient with you, and explained time and time again how things work here. You do not seem to have learned from previous blocks in the slightest. In particular, you should know by now how to use fair-use images; you added album covers to Sugababes earlier today, when we've told you this is not allowed. While you were blocked, you sockpuppeted as User:Rian16, and were blocked for that. After my final warning earlier today, you are again warned for vandalism. Sorry, we've had enough and I have given you (and us) a year's break in the hope that you will finally understand that our policies exist for a reason, and we just will not put up with this..

Welcome back

I note your year away from here has been helpful, in that you have not uploaded any copyrighted images. However, I've had to revert some of your edits from today because they were not all helpful. Details about Jade Goody's death belong in her own article, and not anywhere else. That is the reason we have Wikilinks, so that all the important information is in one place and not duplicated across different articles. If you have any questions about editing, please ask someone, if not me. Cheers. Rodhullandemu 01:18, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Steptoe and Son

It would be worth you taking a look at WP:MOSTV, which will tell you that television programmes, even though they are not currently being shown, do not cease to exist. As far as we are concerned, the only things that qualify for "was" are dead people and things that have been destroyed, such as the Colossus of Rhodes. If in doubt, please ask.
