Your submission at Articles for creation

I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Music Sounds Better with U. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's a video tutorial - hit play, then right-click for "full screen".

Here's an example of how to add references:

Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea.<ref> Smith, John. "[http://foonews.com/Article42 Interview with Chzz]", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22. </ref>

== References ==

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers^[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at #wikipedia-en-help ^connect.

Template:Boston Red Sox roster navbox

I'm not sure what you were doing, put please don't leave brackets like [[]] on templates like you did in these edits. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:15, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But, the thing is, though, that these [[]] things keep coming up after I putthe article names in, an when it is saved, that is what happens. User:MatthewMcCoyTheOne talk 12:48, 17 December 2011 (EST)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Bleeding Love. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Make It In America.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Make It In America.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 23:02, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

June 2012

Your addition to File:Kalish.jpg has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Fut.Perf. ☼ 20:06, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Take a Hint

The article Take a Hint has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable. Fails WP:NSONG.

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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Redirect blanking

Hi, if you have an issue with a redirect that doesn't qualify for speedy deletion, please take it to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion rather than blank the page as you did with Wil Myers. Thanks! -- KTC (talk) 19:59, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, based on your comment at Special:ArticleFeedbackv5/Wil_Myers/166547 it looks like you may not understand how redirects work. As Wil Myers is a redirect to Will Myers, only the latter page contains any content. Anyone visiting the first is seamlessly taken to the second page. The page with the content is already named Will Meyers, so nothing needs to be done to correct the name. For more information on redirects see Help:Redirect. Monty ₈₄₅ 20:06, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, the more common spelling of Myers's name is NOT "Will". That is why I blanked the page, so it could get redirected to Wil Myers. MatthewMcCoyTheOne (talk)
If you mean you think Will Myers should be move to Wil Myers, then Wikipedia:Requested moves is the place you want. KTC (talk) 20:57, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, KTC. I will do that. Thanks, User:MatthewMcCoyTheOne (talk), 16 July 2012, 17:00 (ET)

DYK for Dan Straily

On 5 August 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Dan Straily, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that as of August 2, Dan Straily led all American professional baseball pitchers in strikeouts for 2012? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

October 2012

Hello, I'm Widr. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Beauty and a Beat, but you didn't provide a reliable source. I've removed it for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Please don't add/alter genres without a source or discussing it first on the Talk page. Widr (talk) 21:44, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Bleeding Love (Valentine's Special).JPG

Thanks for uploading File:Bleeding Love (Valentine's Special).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 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. ★ Bigr Tex 20:52, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
