Also, I came across your user name in connection with an image you uploaded, apparently taken by you, and also available on the net from a website you run, www.hotrodhomepage.com. All of this is perfectly fine (and even very helpful - it's a great image, and we appreciate having it!). However, Wikipedia does get an absolutly asstonishing amount of images uploaded by random people from random websites with which they have no connection, and no legal right to contribute the images on those websites to Wikipedia. The basic way we use to verify that the account uploading an image is the same person who runs the website is to request that a small note be put on the website, either saying the the images are released under a free license (such as {{CopyrightedFreeUse}}, as you have tagged the image you uploaded, or simply a random word which was previously put on wikipedia by the account in question; i.e. you say "I'll put the $WfjwFW$#FJ@WFW" at this URL, that way you know who I really am. Either of these two methods would clear out any doubts about the possibility of the image you uploaded being a copyright violation. Thanks! JesseW, the juggling janitor 04:15, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of NetherRealm Studios

edit
 

A tag has been placed on NetherRealm Studios requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may 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 - 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. — Zhernovoi (talk) 18:59, 10 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
