License tagging for Image:Dunbar Magnet Middle School.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Dunbar Magnet Middle School.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:06, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

July 2006[edit]

school articles and copyright[edit]

LilMane, you seem to be creating school articles by simply copying information from their websites, like the article for Gibbs Magnet School of Foreign Languages and International Studies, with content copied from here. We can't really accept that kind of content, as it is copyrighted and the authors would have to relicense it under the GFDL. Can you rewrite the pages in question? If not, they should probably be prodded.--Kchase02 T 06:49, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violations and unsourced material[edit]

In addition to your repeated copyright violations, several polite requests have been issued requesting that you cite reliable sources when alleging affiliation of a living person with a criminal organization. These requests, which have been made repeatedly, have been completely ignored now for several months. Please observe these requests, as they are a matter of policy, and note that if you should happen to repeat either one of these actions, I am afraid that your account will be blocked in an effort to obtain your attention in this matter. Thank you, Can't sleep, clown will eat me 06:18, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User categories[edit]

LilMane, I removed the categories on your userpage b/c they are meant for articles, not wikipedia editors. If you want to place yourself in such categories, I'd suggest you browse. Category:Wikipedians to find things instead. Cheers!--Kchase T 01:36, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blak Jak[edit]

You have recently created the article Blak Jak. This was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not re-create the article: if you disagree with the article's deletion, you may ask for a review at Wikipedia:Deletion review. Danny Lilithborne 21:34, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please use Edit Summary[edit]

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Geniac 12:31, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect[edit]

Should User:LilMane's talk page be redirecting here? It does, but it's not clear why. Rklawton 18:26, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree it's not clear why; there's no reason given on the user page or this talk page. [1] says LilMane initiated it (?). (The edit of mine was just to fix what was a redirect to a redirect). I say the redirect should be removed especially since LilMane is still an active editor [2]. If there are no objections (I'm thinking of the users involved, in particular) and nobody does it sooner, I'll do it in a few hours. --Geniac 13:06, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the redirect from the user page and talk page and posted questions and comments about the redirect to the talk page. --Geniac 13:07, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding edits made during September 29 2006 (UTC) to Chingy[edit]

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages or sections with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do.

Family Guy Birth Years[edit]

Why are you adding birth years to Family Guy characters. Some are just plain illogical like Stewie being born in 2005 which means he was -6 years old when Family Guy started in 1999. Most cartoons use a rolling calendar so that characters are always the age they are supposed to be. This means that in 2006, Bart Simpsons birthday would have been born in 1996 but in 1996, his birth years was 1986. I am going to revert your changes and please don't reinsert them without explanation. Gdo01 02:14, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lois' religion and sexuality[edit]

Please do not put Lois Griffin’s religion as being Protestant as this has not yet been verified. Also, her sexuality is best described as bi- sexual, so don’t remove the category tag. In future read the discussion page before you make edits .--Baronjim 21:58, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously, edit summaries[edit]

I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks!

November 2006[edit]

I have a question for you.[edit]

Hello LilMane, Did you add information about Yung Joc being related to Young Jeezy? If so then please be aware that I erased it. The information is false. These two men are not related. Yung Joc has even stated himself, "You know what, everybody wants to know that and I don't know why they just won't let people be their own. Why I gotta be related to somebody? Me and Jeezy are cool, that's my homie but there's no relation just blood in the game." [3] If I "stepped on your feet" I am sorry and I mean no disrespect, however I feel that BET is a more credible website than the website on which your information is based. There is no doubting my information, seeing as how Yung Joc was the one who answered the question himself. If this was not you that added the information, then I apologise.

Your edit to Craig Anton[edit]

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! --MCB 18:51, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And you got this idea where? Even if the school SOMETIMES calls itself that, the school is primairly "Little Rock Central High School" - DO NOT MOVE THIS TO "Central International Studies High School" EVER AGAIN.

If you really want to, you can put up a move request. But I can tell you RIGHT NOW it will be defeated.

Mann Arts and Science Magnet Middle School[edit]

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Mann Arts and Science Magnet Middle School, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. Shimeru 20:19, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm about to throw up a tag for a nomination for deletion on the article. This is an article, not a userpage! Am I missing something or what? Unless someone can explain this, I'll be nominating it. I'm assuming I am missing something because it's been around for so long! Chupper 03:28, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Johnny L. Banks, Jr. is not the appropriate place to post information about yourself, because it is in the part of Wikipedia where encyclopaedic articles are written. A "userpage" at User:LilMane, however, is available for personal information about yourself. When adding personal information please remember that Wikipedia is not myspace. Your userpage is for anything that is compatible with the Wikipedia project. It is a mistake to think of it as a homepage: Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site.

Black-Ty might be deleted[edit]

A tag has been placed on Black-Ty, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to add more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Will (Talk - contribs) 03:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Editors that don't provide an edit summary tend to look like vandals[edit]

I have noticed you commonly don't enter an edit summary. This causes me problems. When I patrol for vandalism, I use the summary to make a preliminary decision on whether or not the post is a vandal edit or not. If the summary is present (or at least a section header, the part inside the /* */), I commonly decide the edit is legit and move on.

However, if no edit summary is available, I typically resort to loading the diff for the edit. This takes time. For that reason, if your edits are all valid, I ask that you provide edit summaries. For more on how to enter an edit summary, please read Help:Edit summary.

Incidentally, it is not just me that appreciate having edit summaries. When you omit your summary, you may be telling various bots that you are vandalizing pages. For this reason, please consider providing that summary. It is very important.

The edit summary appears in black italics in the following places:

Page history - list of changes to the page you edited
User contributions - list of all your edits
Watchlist* - list of recent changes to watched pages (logged-in users only)
diff page - shows the difference between two edits
Recent changes - list of all recent edits
Wikipedia IRC channels - real time list of all edits
Related changes - list of recent changes to pages linked to the page you edited
List of new pages: shows the edit summary of the creation.

* Use the enhanced watchlist to see all recent changes in the watched pages, not just the last change in each page.

Soulja Boy[edit]

Notability of Souljia Boy[edit]

A tag has been placed on Souljia Boy, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) 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.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 07:09, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles, as you did with Souljia Boy. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. Mytildebang 07:14, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.lrsd.org/display.cfm?id=149 and http://www.lrsd.org/schoolindex.cfm?sccode=35 in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:King Interdistrict Magnet Elementary School with a link to where we can find that note;
If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:King Interdistrict Magnet Elementary School with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:King Interdistrict Magnet Elementary School saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. --Liveste 07:08, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You idiot, Hornswoggle is not the real life bastard son of Vince McMahon. His real name is still Dylan Postl and you should not have moved the page. vDub —Preceding unsigned comment added by OutRider2003 (talk • contribs) 03:15, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:CMMSlogo.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:CMMSlogo.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 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 non-free media 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. --Geniac (talk) 19:24, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Diddywaves.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Diddywaves.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 03:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
