Welcome!

Hello, Sm1989199, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Anthony Randazzo, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Proposed deletion of Anthony Randazzo

The article Anthony Randazzo has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. MikeWazowski (talk) 16:53, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Anthony Randazzo Reason.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Anthony Randazzo Reason.jpg, which you've sourced to http://reason.org/authors/show/anthony-randazzo. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

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:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 16:30, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

July 2011

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Robert W. Poole, Jr., and Anthony Randazzo without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Hairhorn (talk) 18:46, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Hello. Concerning your contribution, Robert W.

This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://reason.org/staff/show/robert-poole.html. As a copyright violation, Robert W. Poole, Jr. appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. Robert W. Poole, Jr. has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words.

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 21:20, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Robert W. Poole, Jr.. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Socialservice (talk) 21:28, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Agreed with Socialservice that the foregoing warning was in error as this page blanking was by the page creator and linked with a request for page deletion. Perhaps the following level 4 warning should be treated as being a level 3. FrankFlanagan (talk) 22:44, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Please do not blank talk pages as you did at David Nott. Thanks. Hairhorn (talk) 21:29, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

This is your last warning; the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:David Nott, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. The reverted edit can be found here. Thank you. --some jerk on the Internet (talk) 21:32, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
