Proposed Georgia Move edit

As a past participant in the discussion on how to handle the Georgia pages, I thought you might be interested to know that there's a new attempt to reach consensus on the matter being addressed at Talk:Georgia (country)#Requested_Move_-_July_2006. Please come by and share your thoughts to help form a consensus. --Vengeful Cynic 04:11, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply


MyBlackBook edit

A tag has been placed on MyBlackBook, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jehochman Talk 20:57, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

AFD for MyBlackBook edit

Article is NOT advertisement. It has neutral tone, and is cited by many articles (over several references, and news sources). This has been in an article for quite some time. There are numerous references, and sources cited. Google returns over 20,000 results searching on the subject "myblackbook".

This article has been removed from speedy deletion numerous times by other members and editors of Wiki.

The article meets all Wikipedia requirements, and is an educational encyclopedic entry. The article was put for speedy deletion over a year ago, and was saved after meeting the criteria of wikipedia.

The article still meets the criteria of Wikipedia. Resorb 00:31, 18 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I nominated this article for deletion, but the final decision is not in my hands. It is currently being discussed at WP:AFD, which is a different process from speedy deletion. AFDs involve a discussion period for wikipedians to consider the merits of the article and come to a consensus as to its fate. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you may do so at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/MyBlackBook. --Icarus (Hi!) 03:34, 18 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:L7Logo.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading File:L7Logo.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:11, 3 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
