Orphaned non-free media (Image:Britney Spears Radar.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Britney Spears Radar.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 06:30, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

United World Chart

Please do not add information from the United World Chart, or any other chart listed at WP:BADCHARTS, to any Wikipedia articles. Thank you.—Kww(talk) 13:24, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Your recent edits to Circus and If U Seek Amy have been constituted as bad edits and have been reverted. Please donot violate WP:NOR. Read it before you edit. Happy editing. --Legolas!! ^(talktome) 12:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Britney Spears - If You Seek Amy.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Britney Spears - If You Seek Amy.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 13:45, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Again, see WP:BADCHARTS

Do not add the Brazilian chart to song articles. Thanks.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to If U Seek Amy. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. - eo (talk) 11:04, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Radar (song)

Radio station countdown shows are not notable - again see WP:CHARTS. - eo (talk) 11:35, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Removing references

Don't remove references from articles, as you did on Britney Spears discography. There's no excuse for doing so.—Kww(talk) 00:32, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

You're looking at it kind of backwards. The problem is that the other ones are missing, not that the European ones are there.—Kww(talk) 00:39, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Removing charts

Why do you keep removing charts!? Please read which charts can be used at [[WP:GOODCHARTS}] Candyo32 (talk) 11:30, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

No, you are mistaken. Please read WP:USCHART / WP:GOODCHARTS Candyo32 (talk) 23:20, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Also, please stop changing the prose in the introduction of Not Myself Tonight. It was written for GA standards and is fine the way it is. Candyo32 (talk) 14:46, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

June 2010

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you make a change to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to You Lost Me (Christina Aguilera song). Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit. It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Lil-unique1 (talk) 01:43, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

October 2010

1. Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Rihanna discography, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Yves (talk) 07:39, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

February 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Kesha discography has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Logan _Talk ^{Contributions} 01:42, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

I see you have been explained before about WP:GOODCHARTS. So, another instance of removal of accepted charts from articles, like you did with "Bad Romance", boy you will be in trouble. I will report you to WP:ANI for intentional vandalism. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 13:07, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

April 2011

Stop removing sources from discographies. Discographies are full of numbers, and removing what few sources there are makes them more difficult to verify, and hence more susceptible to vandalism. You need to start discussing on the talk pages. If you continue to remove sources without discussion, you are likely to end up blocked from editing. I see above you've been cautioned about this before. Gimmetoo (talk) 15:24, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
