Speedy deletion nomination of Talk to Animals

A tag has been placed on Talk to Animals 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ukexpat (talk) 16:47, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Crimewave2.jpeg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Crimewave2.jpeg. 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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 03:00, 30 April 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Leo 03:00, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of King night

A tag has been placed on King night requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. 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, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. role^player 00:01, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:KingNight.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:KingNight.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use 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 on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 04:08, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Cannibal (Kesha EP).

April 2014

Hello, I'm Lil-unique1. Your recent edit to the page Overdose (Ciara song) appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. According to the references alreasy in the article, the song was sent to Rhythmic radio - that is radio for progressive songs that would work on stations that play multiple genres. If you have information that says the sing was sent to urban radio you need a reliable source to add such information alongside the existing information. You should not change or remove sourced information unless you have an equally reliable source that counteracts such information. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 02:12, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Firstly this is not the playground and if you want to be taken seriously please do not not make comments like "Overdose was NEVER added to Rhythmic radio, only Urban radio. Fix that. Thanks". It will not earn you respect amongst the editors and it is in not in the spirit of civility. Secondly, on what basis are you claiming that "Overdose" was sent to urban radio? It is not an urban song (not R&B or Hip-Hop or soul) and according to radio industry monitoring website FMBQ (as seen here) it clearly says "Ciara - Overdose" (Epic)" on the page for rhythmic radio. So unless you can provide evidence that it was sent to urban radio that cannot be added to the article. Furthermore, even if evidence was found to say "Overdose" was sent to urban radio, it would be added alongisde rhythmic radio as that information is already verified as true. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 01:11, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
