You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing Unsigned templateHi Adabow, I noticed that you used the unsigned template at Talk:Tasman Sea to sign comments. This is a good idea, but you used it incorrectly. See the documentation for the template: it must be substed, it must be in UTC, which is 13 hours behind New Zealand Daylight Time and 12 hours behind New Zealand Standard Time, and it must be in the <day month year> format of dates, rather than the American date format that you previously used. See my edit at Talk:Tasman Sea.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Love_Songs_From_The_Breeze.jpg)Thanks for uploading File:Love_Songs_From_The_Breeze.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 06:13, 23 February 2010 (UTC) Fair use rationale for File:Stand_With_You_video_screenshot.jpgThanks for uploading or contributing to File:Stand_With_You_video_screenshot.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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 01:16, 13 March 2010 (UTC) Ridin' SoloI am not deleting the page, I am simply redirecting it. While WP:NSONG does state that appearing on a chart should give a song notability, it also states: "Notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album." While it's too early to know for sure if it will ever grow beyond a stub; it hasn't been announced as a single, and thus it currently is only notable for appearing on a few charts. This information can be covered in the main album article. If something does occur to make it notable, such as a music video, as you said, a restoration would be fine. However, cover art does not make a song notable. –Chase (talk) 20:08, 13 March 2010 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image File:If We Ever Meet Again.jpgThanks for uploading File:If We Ever Meet Again.jpg.

Anika MoaI apologize. I was just being WP:BOLD in my interpretation of WP:OC#EPONYMOUS in regards to the Anika Moa categories, not due to any redundancy.

re: Music samplesHey. I do tons of work with audio files. I got started by looking at WP:SAMPLE. I use two apps. One for manipulating the file and the other for converting to WAV format and back to Ogg. I use Nero Wave Editor for the actual manipulation and just use Audacity for converting and reducing. Audacity doesn't use a scale of bit rates that you can choose from. Instead, they use a scale (0 - 10). Wikipedia recommends a setting of 0 and that comes out to about 64Kbits per second. It's at Edit | Preferences then the File Formats tab.

AssessmentAnother editor is giving me a bit of a hard time on one of my recently published articles. Amongst other things, he's talking about it being "barely past stub". To bring as much objectivity into this as possible, and given that you sometimes assess articles, would you mind having a look at Richard Molesworth Taylor and give it your assessment? And the editor has removed about 700 kb of content, which might be interesting to know as well. Schwede66 05:16, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010. Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages. When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process).

Templates and NZ bird collabsYo man - I just saw the work you have been doing on The Naked and Famous which I recently created - it's good stuff! I was only a teenager (18) when I got my first whiff of "wiki-crack" too - been here for coming on 5 years now! I really like that template you quickly whipped up for the band. I am really keen on doing a whole bunch of templates for articles on NZ plants and animal but I really have no idea how to make them.. but I want to learn, to allow me to contribute more in my field of expertise. How does one go about creating one and how do you/where can you learn what code to write to produce the desired result? Oh and btw, a small group of us - me, Casliber and Kahuroa are getting ready to do some collab.s with the intention of pushing Kiwi towards GA and Huia from GA to FA. many hands make light work, as they say and you seem to be a highly skilled contributor - interested in joining?
