File source problem with File:SpeedwayMap.png

Thank you for uploading File:SpeedwayMap.png. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:00, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:WSYX28newlogo.JPEG

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:WSYX28newlogo.JPEG. 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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:55, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from WPNT into Sinclair Broadcast Group. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 12:27, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 15

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Victory Road (2011), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Audible.

May 2021

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Zach Wilson, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Johnnie Bob (talk) 22:37, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

How is that original research? I had THREE sources cited in my edit. Dude, you're just jealous. Jgera5 (talk) 22:42, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. One of your recent contributions to WBNS-TV has been reverted or removed, because it contains speculative or unconfirmed information about a future event.

Replaceable fair use File:MarkMadden.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:MarkMadden.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:47, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Kordell Stewart section on Racial issues faced by black quarterbacks

Hi Jgera5,

Thanks for your contributions to Racial issues faced by black quarterbacks, notably for your additions about Kordell Stewart. I added a few other sources to the paragraphs, especially as the first one was only Stewart's essay for the Player's Tribune, and was sure to add other sources to back up the racism and homophobia that he received. However, I did remove your second source as it didn't back up the statistics on black quarterbacks under Bill Cowher and Mike Tomlin. Be very careful not to include original research or to twist a source in a particular narrative. Wikipedia has a neutral point of view, and it's important to list what is stated in a source per verbatim, and also to be careful which sources to use.

I, too, have been dinged before for getting a bit too emotional on certain edits in political, sports, or race-related articles, so just wanted to give some tips as a fellow editor!

-WuTang94 (talk) 02:24, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

No problem @WuTang94. I was actually surprised Kordell Stewart wasn't on there before, he was pretty much the poster child (for better or worse) for the topic. I was born and raised in the Pittsburgh area and grew up with Stewart as my QB, he definitely deserved better in Pittsburgh. Jgera5 (talk) 13:12, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

EG Group

Thanks for contributing to the article EG Group. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). If you need further help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse, or just ask me. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 12:08, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

List of breakout characters

Hi. Please do not add uncited material to articles, as you did with this edit to List of breakout characters, as this violates Wikipedia's Verifiability policy. Since you've been editing since 2005, you are probably aware that Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the text in the form of an inline citation, which users learn to make here. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 15:36, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

WWJ-TV, split

I noticed you tagged WWJ-TV to be split. I wanted to provide my rationale here in opposition, as someone else already removed the tag.

In 2019, I wrote a user essay, User:Sammi Brie/One or Two, which discusses when I find it appropriate to split a broadcast article that has one license but multiple incarnations. The answer is "not very often".

Channel 62 in Detroit has neither a lengthy gap of silence—which can merit a split, a la WCAE/WYIN—nor was there a license revocation proceeding or some other substantial change in the mode of operation of the station. (There were substantial changes, of course, but they occurred gradually. CBS was on WGPR before it was actually sold to CBS and the call sign changed, for instance.)

A split does nobody a service. Yes, the article is among our longest on an individual TV station, but that's because there is so much to talk about. It is not so large as to truly merit a split. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 00:21, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

August 2022

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to WWJ-TV, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. See Sammi's comment above. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 00:23, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mvcg66b3r. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, WBNS-TV, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 02:42, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

You rollbacked my edit without explanation, and justified your edit as a grammar fix, when I don't think it solved any grammar issues. Is there a reason for this? Among Us for POTUS (talk) 21:31, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:WBNSTegna.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:WBNSTegna.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. ✗plicit 02:05, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:711Corporate.jpg

The file File:711Corporate.jpg has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the file should explain why.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Non-free rationale for File:KDPlus.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:KDPlus.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi Jgera5, I am employed by Dick's Sporting Goods and am working to update the page. I see that you are a big fan of Pittsburgh sports, and that in the past you have contributed to Giant_Eagle page, which is a Pittsburgh based business, just like DICK's.
