Speedy deletion nomination of Bidim unleashed edit

 

A tag has been placed on Bidim unleashed 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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, 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.

Problems with upload of File:51DHYR7d6eL SL500 AA240 .jpg edit

Thanks for uploading File:51DHYR7d6eL SL500 AA240 .jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or provided a license tag. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, select the appropriate license tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you can't find a suitable license tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:07, 9 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of File:La Hija del Jardinero DVD.jpg edit

 

A tag has been placed on File:La Hija del Jardinero DVD.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days.

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.

Removing Speedy at User:Gidtchom edit

 

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles you created, as you did with User:Gidtchom. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

  1. Place {{hangon}} on the page. Please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag(s).
  2. Make your case on the article's [[Talk:User:Gidtchom|talk page]].

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 19:20, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for File:La_Hija_del_Jardinero_DVD.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:La_Hija_del_Jardinero_DVD.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 '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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? feydey (talk) 21:48, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply


File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Windows Media Player 12 Logo.png edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Windows Media Player 12 Logo.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, 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 uploaded by following this link. 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 05:11, 19 January 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 05:11, 19 January 2010 (UTC)Reply


File copyright problem with File:Windows Media Player 12 Logo on Windows 7.png edit

 

Thank you for uploading File:Windows Media Player 12 Logo on Windows 7.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILYsock(TALK) 00:56, 17 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why Was My Article Deleted? edit

That's the question you are probably asking yourself right now. Well, there are a couple reasons your article could have been deleted.

  1. It may not have met the General notability guideline. This is the guideline that all articles must meet before they can be included on Wikipedia.
  2. It may not have been notable. If a subject isn't notable, it isn't included. Your little brother's garage rock band with 5 fans isn't notable, but Metallica...that's notable.
  3. It may not have been verifiable. If an article doesn't have several third-party reliable sources, it can be deleted as original research.
  4. It may have been advertising. Any page about a company of any sort must meet strict guidelines so it isn't considered advertisting. A page about the local quickie-mart is probably advertising and also probably not notable.
  • Please note that creating pages for "school projects" is frowned upon by the adminship and should not be done. Creating a page for a project is cause for deletion of the page and potentally a block of your account. Please avoid this at all costs.

To create an article, first, please read WP:FIRST. This page is about creating your first article. Then get all the information you can on the subject. Create the article first in userspace (on a subpage of your userpage) so it won't get deleted before you are finished. Add all the information, references, reliable sources and more to the page. Make sure it meets the General notability guideline. If you aren't sure, ask an admin, they will be glad to help. Then move it to where you want it in mainspace (on the Wikipedia). From there, keep it updated with pertinent updated information, so the article doesn't become stale. When in doubt with anything, ask the Help desk or an admin. Hope this helps...NeutralhomerTalk • 12:25, 5 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for File:Torrents of PC Games Website.PNG edit

Thanks for uploading File:Torrents of PC Games Website.PNG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:07, 8 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Windows Media Player icon.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Windows Media Player icon.png. 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) 17:56, 10 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
