Basic

Aw grud. Although the language could use some work (more direct references than "less cognitively gifted individuals", for one) the last revert re-inserted a wrong tag. Corrected - Skysmith 09:58, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Dissident Sound System

An editor has nominated Dissident Sound System, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dissident Sound System and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

Dissident Sound System

You had a chance - several days, in fact, never mind from when the article was created in the first place - to provide the sourcing to reliable, independent, published sources that WP:ATT requires, and to produce evidence that the subject met the criteria of WP:BAND. You failed to do so; all we saw from you were personal attacks and insults. You can understand, I hope, that since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia we cannot just take someone's naked, unsupported word for anything, and it is up to every editor - you, me, everyone - to produce those sources as a necessary condition for any article to remain.

As far as the AfD process went, Delete for failure to meet Wikipedia's standards was the unanimous consensus of every other editor but yourself. We do not fall, I'm afraid, into the currently popular misconception of equating "respect" with "letting you do or say whatever you want" (although it would help your desire to be respected if you chose to respect others), but in any event, adherence to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines is the only avenue we can take.

I am given to understand that administrators have access to the old copy of deleted articles; I would contact them if you wished the text. Contrary to your apparent perception, I am not myself an administrator, and have no power to provide you with that text. I do caution you that recreating the article without the required sourcing is an egregious violation of Wikipedia policy and will not only lead to a Speedy Deletion but would put you at risk for being blocked. I strongly urge you to read WP:ATT, WP:BAND, WP:MUSIC and WP:NN, and ensure any music-related articles you write conform to those standards. Ravenswing 13:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

The closing admin on the AfD was User:Majorly, who would have the information you wish. Good luck on obtaining the proper sourcing for a recreation. Ravenswing 15:18, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Basic (behaviour)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Basic (behaviour), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. ccwaters 14:04, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Basic (behaviour)

Welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome your help to create new content, but your recent additions (such as Basic (behaviour)) are considered nonsense. Please refrain from creating nonsense articles. If you want to test things out, edit the sandbox instead. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Dissident.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Dissident.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. BetacommandBot 21:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello, Toaduk. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace. The image (Image:Dissident.gif) was found at the following location: User:Toaduk/Dissident Sound System. This image or media was attempted to be removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 02:45, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
