Welcome to Reality

Can you please tell us why you want to have a deleted image on the article for Welcome to Reality? Thanks! - tucoxn\^talk 21:32, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Ross Copperman, the artist, requested that I upload that image to his album's Wiki page.

Thanks for your response. The images you're posting are being deleted because evidence of their copyright is not available to Wikipedia. You need to provide this for each image so they don't get deleted. You should e-mail wikipedia's Volunteer Response Team at "photosubmission@wikimedia.org". Read Wikipedia:Contact us - Licensing for more information. Until this problem gets fixed, you risk the images being deleted and not visible to people who look at those articles. Thanks! - tucoxn\^talk 02:12, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Ross Copperman Headshot.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Ross Copperman Headshot.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 18:21, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

January 2014

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Welcome to Reality. Your edits have been reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. KylieTastic (talk) 22:11, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

• I assume your actually trying to use File:Welcome To Reality - Ross Copperman.png rather than the invalid File:Welcome+To+Reality+PNG.png you keep adding (6 times assuming you are Special:Contributions/160.33.195.20 as well. Why keep just reverting when the result was not the image you were trying to add? If your having trouble just ask someone: like either myself or User:Tucoxn who have reverted your edits; or over at the Teahouse posted at the top of your talk page here. I have added the image File:Welcome To Reality - Ross Copperman.png to the article Welcome to Reality assuming this was your intention. However please next time, ask, or at least add a comment explaining what you are trying to do/problems your having - people are here to help. Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 22:25, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Welcome To Reality - Ross Copperman.png

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Chris DeStefano

How do you know DeStephano would like his page deleted? Capitalismojo (talk) 22:27, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

I work for his music publisher (SonyATV/EMI) and he emailed me asking for it to be taken down. Though he might change his mind and have us update it for him.

• Being out of date is no reason to delete a page, only to update it. People can't simply ask for their biographies to be deleted without a valid reason, for instance, if there's something controversial on it. There is nothing controversial on his article as it stands. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 20:13, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

I understand. No reason to get upset. Songwriters do not understand these sorts of things. We will handle updating his page for him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sethjohnson1987 (talk • contribs)

It is also highly recommended to exercise caution when editing a page on someone with whom you have a close connection. I would suggest you read WP:COI for our guidelines on conflict of interest, and WP:NPOV on maintaining a neutral point of view should you decide to update his page. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 23:27, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

I will only be making factual edits. I.E. cuts/synchs he gets as a songwriter.

April 2014

Hello, Sethjohnson1987. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Chris DeStefano, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 12:59, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ryan petersen

Hello, Sethjohnson1987. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Ryan petersen, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Ryan petersen to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, ubiquity (talk) 19:51, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
