With regards to this: how can you prove you're THE Rachel Z? 21655 ωhατ δo γoυ ωαητ? 19:30, 13 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Rachel Z, without explaining the valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Given that there are two sources that state the birthdate, including a bio for the Rochester Jazz Festival, the date is properly sourced. There are other avenues of recourse if you can prove that you are Rachel Z, as JzG noted above. Otherwise, your edits are just deleting verified information—and repeatedly doing so may be considered disruptive (vandalism). —C.Fred (talk) 03:04, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply


  Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Rachel Z, you will be blocked from editing. Frankly, I don't want to block you, but at the same time, creating an account and claiming to be the subject of an article does not give you carte blanche to make changes to the article. Again, there are instructions at Wikipedia:Autobiography that you can follow to contest the information, including sending email to info-en-q (at) wikimedia (dot) org. —C.Fred (talk) 03:45, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Regarding this comment you left on my talk page:

"I have retained Ken Hertz -a very influential lawyer and will press charges."

I would encourage you to read Wikipedia:No legal threats. You may—and I encourage you to—remove that comment from my talk page. Otherwise, by process, your account should be blocked for making legal threats. —C.Fred (talk) 03:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Further, a summary of the situation to date has been posted at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. —C.Fred (talk) 04:03, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I would also suggest you look at Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Help#Managing_your_biography for other ways you might be able to resolve this. Gwen Gale (talk) 04:12, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Rachel Z's Facebook page

edit

I've reverted your attempt to add a Facebook link to the Rachel Z article because the link was dead. Please note that if the link can be readily gotten from her official website, then it should not be listed in the article. WP:External links includes guidance on which social networking sites are acceptable and when they may—and may not—be linked in an article. —C.Fred (talk) 18:26, 1 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

File permission problem with File:Rachel Z by Marta.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Rachel Z by Marta.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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}} 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:23, 14 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Bad Bunny. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. LynxTufts (talk) 12:17, 12 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
