If you want to delete the redirect "Hot30 Countdown", just put {{db|housekeeping - typo}} at the beginning, and someone will delete it. Of if you think it's worth keeping, you don't have to. Thanks. --John Nagle 15:42, 4 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

CCM edit

CCM may refer to a light pop style of music but previously it was more ambiguous. When I was in high school, I could read reviews of punk groups or rock groups in CCM (magazine). In fact I see that the current CCM has a review of Kutless: "one of the top-selling hard rock bands in Christian music"[1]. Our CCM article follows this generic usage to describe the entire musical movement arising out of "Jesus music", gospel and hymn singing - and including all sorts of music styles from light pop to rap to metal but which are Christian and contemporary. See the bands mentioned in the article and in the List of CCM artists. Rmhermen 16:17, 8 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
Cross-posting from my talk page:
Regarding Hillsong, I think you need to investigate the old revolutionaries of the Jesus Music movement of the early 1970s. As for the three artists you mention: it seems to me, based on online soundclips, Bethany Dillon would be billed as pop or CCM (as our article does call her), Joy Williams would be billed as country or Christian country in the U.S. although a number of her chart positions are on Adult Contemporary, and our article on KJ-52 says he is a rap artist which Christianity Today review also calls him[2]. From your changes to the Christian pop article you seem to be making that into what the CCM article already covers. From that article: "Christian pop includes many Christian hip hop, Christian rap, Christian metal, Christian punk, Christian rock, and Christian worship music, it is reasonable to say that "Christian pop" is a loosely defined category. It may also be classified as Christian soft rock or Christian pop rock." I don't think this is a good definition. Rmhermen 17:14, 8 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use Image:Tiffany Dupont.jpg edit

 
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Tiffany Dupont.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jackofalltradesmasterofnone 13:21, 10 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Phil Dooley edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Phil Dooley requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. ukexpat (talk) 16:47, 14 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
