Image copyright problem with Image:Futurist-friends_cover-big.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Futurist-friends_cover-big.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you. -- Carnildo 11:02, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added the proper license template for you. In the future, please be sure to do this for any image you upload. Thanks. howch e ng {chat} 19:22, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:GBcover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:GBcover.jpg. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Fuse dimensionintrusion.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Fuse dimensionintrusion.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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 fair use images 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. (ESkog)^(Talk) 21:47, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See You on the Other Side

Hi,

You added some info to See You on the Other Side (Mercury Rev album). Do you have a source for it?

Thanks. --Amir E. Aharoni 08:07, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shalom Amir,

I got it from a feature on them in the magazine Uncut, from summer 2001 (when All Is Dream came out). I'll search for the citation, but I guarantee you it was there. Jonathan talked about how he considered it to be Mercury Rev's best album, and became deeply depressed when it was their least successful.

Dav Brav 17:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks.

I also think it's their best. :) --Amir E. Aharoni 13:52, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of The Milk Factory

A tag has been placed on The Milk Factory, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD a7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article 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 confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 04:07, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Milk Factory

Hi Dav, thanks for your question. The article was actually deleted for two reasons, one was due to No assertion of importance/significance, and it quite frankly just looked like an article meant to advertise the site. Read through Wikipedia:Notability, and then through the core content policies Wikipedia:Verifiability, No Original Research, and Neutral point of view for more information on creating Wikipedia articles. One of the problems was there were no reliable third-party published sources that would establish notability. Let me know if I can be of any further help. Dreadstar † 19:54, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, if you find appropriate sources for it, it can be easily recreated. You might consider building the article in a user subpage sandbox before putting "live" into the mainspace. Dreadstar † 19:58, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:CVOSS7882cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:CVOSS7882cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:06, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:GBhandoutfront.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:GBhandoutfront.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 '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.

Proposed deletion of Conform to Deform '82/'90

The article Conform to Deform '82/'90 has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A search for reliable, secondary sources reveals an insufficient amount of significant coverage. This article fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines for albums.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
