Chyskillz

Hi, your draft for Chyskillz has been accepted. Please do not restore the former version as it is no longer in draft space. A significant amount of content was removed as part of the review process because the tone of the writing was not encyclopedic, and as you can see from the article history several experienced editors have made additional changes after my review. This means you are reverting not one, but three editors by restoring the draft version. Please discuss additions on the article talk page and gain consensus for them, and I can be reached at my talk page if you have any questions. We also have a Teahouse where experienced editors are available to answer questions from new editors. SeraphWiki (talk) 17:38, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

April 2018

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Chyskillz. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. SeraphWiki (talk) 18:24, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you can not keep reverting. This section: [1] was removed as non-encyclopedic by Primefac who is an administrator here on Wikipedia. I also agree with him. To restore disputed content, you need to have a consensus by discussing with editors on the articles talk page. Edit warring by continuing to revert multiple editors will likely result in a block.

Speedy deletion nomination of Gangreen (hip hop group)

Hello Felix Montana,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gangreen (hip hop group) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

How to write articles that don't get deleted

If you're going to write an article about anyone or anything, here are the steps you should follow:

1) Gather as many professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources you can find. This does not include Discogs entries, forum posts, or almost all Youtube videos.

2) Focus on just the ones that are not dependent upon or affiliated with the subject, but still specifically about the subject and providing in-depth coverage (not passing mentions). If you do not have at least three such sources, the subject is not yet notable and trying to write an article at this point will only fail. Interviews with the subject are not always regarded as independent.

3) Summarize those sources from step 2, adding citations at the end of them. You'll want to do this in a program with little/no formatting, like Microsoft Notepad or Notepad++, and not in something like Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer. This removes any worries about "I worked hard on it," because you still have a copy.

4) Combine overlapping summaries (without arriving at new statements that no individual source supports) where possible, repeating citations as needed.

5) Paraphrase the whole thing just to be extra sure you've avoided any copyright violations or plagiarism.

6) Use the Article wizard to post this draft and wait for approval.

7) Expand the article using sources you put aside in step 2 (but make sure they don't make up more than half the sources for the article, and make sure that affiliated sources don't make up more than half of that).

Doing something besides those steps typically results in the article not being approved, or even in its deletion. Ian.thomson (talk) 19:09, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Gangreen (hip hop group)

Felix, after the discussion at my Talk page you should not have recreated the article. I am going to delete it again. If you want to challenge the deletion, take it to WP:DRV, but do not recreate it.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:36, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What went wrong

You didn't actually follow the advice that I gave you. You tried to follow parts of it, but there was a lot of your most recent attempt that shows that you missed the point.

Anyone can create entries on Wordpress, Facebook, Discogs, Youtube, or Soundcloud -- those are not reliable sources. You still cited over a dozen such sources. Even if the Soundcloud page you cited actually does belong to Who$sane, there's still the problem that that source is not independent. Our notability standards require the article to cite reliable sources that are independent of the subject. This means that you need to cite stuff that was written by people who are paid to write news for a living, who do not work for Gang Green or any of the companies they have worked with or for.

You found a few sources that might be useful, but you did not focus only on those. You also did not provide good citations that would allow anyone to verify that the source is good. For example, when you cited Stacy Gueraseva's "Def Jam, Inc." you did not provide a page number. No one is going to take the time to read the whole book to find the part that maybe you were citing to support the claim that ONYX left Def Jam.

You also did not use the Article wizard to post a draft instead of posting in article space. This would have resulted in a page called "Draft:Gang Green," which could have been reviewed by other editors who would have given you advice on how to improve the article.

File:Gang Green (hip-hop group).jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:18, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Drafts and images

Non-free images are not permitted in Draft space. See WP:DRAFTS. You'd think you would realize that my removing that image from Draft:Gang Green (hip-hop group) twice might be a clue that you should not keep restoring it. I'm removing it again, but this time you are formally warned that if you restore it, you will be blocked.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:09, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Gang Green (hip-hop group).jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Gang Green (hip-hop group).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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:17, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Gang Green (hip-hop group).jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Gang Green (hip-hop group).jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 21:57, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Against All Authorities) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Against All Authorities, Felix Montana!

Wikipedia editor Doomsdayer520 just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Thanks for your new article on "Against All Authorities" by Onyx, though it has already been noted that the article needs more evidence that the record is notable in its own right, beyond merely being released.

To reply, leave a comment on Doomsdayer520's talk page.

September 2018

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Gang Green (rap group), from its old location at User:Felix Montana/Gang Green (rap group). This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 21:37, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Self Service moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Self Service, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources.

Currently the only referenced sources are IMDB, Linkedin, and Youtube. Not a single one of these is a reliable third-party source (and the Youtube links do not have the correct license for use on WP).

I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Self Service (September 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Waggie were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Reads as promotional, too much unsourced and poorly sourced content.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Self Service and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Self Service, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

September 2018

Your recent editing history at Cold Case Files Vol. 2 shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gang Green (hip-hop group) (October 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SportingFlyer was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I've looked through all of the sources, and none of them provide enough secondary coverage to get this past WP:NMUSIC or WP:GNG. Many of them are about ONYX, are primary (Youtube videos, interviews) and don't mention the group at all - the only mention I can see is a passing one.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

JesseRafe i'm not violate Wikipedia. I'm just added info that you delete on page Onyx (hip hop group). Ok, I will add this information step by step, no more quotes. I really want to get a reason why this shouldn't be here (step by step). I just spent 3 hours improving this page Onyx (hip hop group), and all my improvements were removed with one click. As I have already said, I appreciate your contribution to this page and ask that you appreciate mine too. Thank you for your attention in advance! Felix Montana (talk) 20:18, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, but please do not add them back. I gave edit summaries the first time I removed a lot of this content, it's laborious to do it again. It simply is not encyclopedic, it's a lot of detail and boasting. Discuss on the talk page of the article why you think it belongs. Also look at other pages on Wikipedia and see how they are written. Lastly, there is a manual of style as well, there is a welcome message further up this page with many links about how to best attempt to contribute to the encyclopedia. I also appreciate your efforts, but it is important that this encyclopedia stay well-written and well-sourced, and doesn't become a fansite or blog with personal opinions. JesseRafe (talk) 20:24, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

JesseRafe Thank you, I appreciate your contribution on this page. I did not have time to do this before myself. There is really a lot of information that I found on the Internet, having spent many hours. But now she looks more informative than she was before me. I totally agree with you. I have too little experience for this, so the style of this article is in many ways not encyclopedic. Thank you again! Peace. Felix Montana (talk) 20:36, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Sonny Seeza.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Sonny Seeza.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ~~

JesseRafe I need advice or help from you as an experienced user. I spent the time to find at least some photo for this article Sonny Seeza to illustrate the artist, but I did not find any free photo, so I was forced to upload an image File:Sonny Seeza.jpg with fair use rationale WP:FUR. I wrote about all this in the photo description as "No free equivalent". But Hullaballoo Wolfowitz removed this file from an article with the reason that this image is "‎nonfree image in BLP infobox". He deleted the image from the article without even paying attention to the fact that it is used with fair use rationale. After that he added template "{{Di-replaceable fair use" in the photo description. Then i added another reason for the irreplaceability. After that, I returned the photo to the article, but Hullaballoo Wolfowitz again removed this photo from an article with the reason "obvious WP:NFCC#1 violation". But I believe that there's no WP:NFCC#1 violation and use of the image is consistent with fair-use provisions. Now this image is not used anywhere. After 7 days, it will be automatically deleted. Are there any ways to save this photo for an article? Felix Montana (talk) 16:23, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Felix, sorry, I don't know much about file uploading. I assume you read Wikipedia:Uploading images because you seem to be familiar with a lot of the concepts so you may know more than me on the topic. Have you tried the help desk? You start a comment on Wikipedia:Help desk, you can probably copy and paste most of what you wrote here (remember to copy from the edit screen, not the html "printed" screen or you'd have to make your links all over again). The editors who frequent the help desk (I'm not sure if they're all admins/sysops) volunteer and are there because they take the time and will look at your issue as you present it, unclear other instances of a conflict in which folks may be moving too fast to fully consider your rationale -- like for instance, when you and I had conflicting opinions on what should go in the Onyx article, or Hullaballoo may be acting in good faith because to him or her it may be a bigger problem that Wikipedia could be sued for copyright violations with that photo than the smaller problem of one article not having an image in the infobox. It's a balancing act for sure! Good luck! JesseRafe (talk) 17:01, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 JesseRafe thank you for your advice! Good luck you too! Felix Montana (talk) 17:05, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! CptViraj (📧) 10:53, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Fredro Starr in St. Petersburg, Russia (2015).jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Fredro Starr in St. Petersburg, Russia (2015).jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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-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. 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 in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 11:44, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Against All Authorities.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Against All Authorities.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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:04, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
