Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Tm logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Tm logo.gif. 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 21:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Smosh.com

I have had to remove the link to smosh.com from the Smosh article, as that website includes a copy of their Pokemon video, which is an admitted copyright violation. As it says here,

For policy or technical reasons, editors are restricted from linking to the following, without exception. Sites that violate the copyrights of others per contributors' rights and obligations should not be linked. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website has licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. If you know that an external Web site is carrying a work in violation of the creator's copyright, do not link to that copy of the work. Linking to a page that illegally distributes someone else's work sheds a bad light on Wikipedia and its editors. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Blog section on ABC.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:Blog section on ABC.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of User:Dee4leeds

A tag has been placed on User:Dee4leeds, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:User:Dee4leeds|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ukexpat (talk) 20:08, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of The Three Rs (Website)

An editor has nominated The Three Rs (Website), an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Three Rs (Website) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 01:59, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Shopping in Leeds

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Shopping in Leeds, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? ┌Joshii┐└chat┘ 13:48, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article In Silico, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
  4. avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Particularity be weary of adding external links to sites you're directly involved in. Thank you. Rehevkor ✉ 14:00, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm referring to adding links a website, The Three Rs, that you are directly involved in, and in some cases actually wrote the review (not just in In Silico, several others too.) I quote from above: "linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles". According to Wikipedia:ALBUM#Professional reviews the link shouldn't be included anyway as they seem to be unprofessional and a little more than a blog, if you disagree with that however you could take it there, but make clear your interests in the website first. It doesn't go against the wiki's interests generally, mostly your own, hence the conflict. Hope this clears it up for you. Rehevkor ✉ 16:19, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Other people adding the links doesn't mean they pass Wikipedia:ALBUM#Professional_reviews, or dispel your obvious conflict of interest. The above notice should help you avoid things like this in the future, I suggest you read the suggested material. Rehevkor ✉ 16:31, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You think yourself professional as you like, but that doesn't disregard the conflict of interest. Anyhoo, Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Albums -----> Rehevkor ✉ 17:08, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not subtle enough, you added links on several articles to a site you are directly involved with (ones that would fail inclusion policies anyway, blogs are almost exclusively disregarded). That's an issue in my eyes. Please be more "subtle" in the future. Rehevkor ✉ 17:45, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Assume good faith. Read what article again? I'm not referring to your edits to articles as a whole, just external links to web pages you are responsible for. I'm not sure if I can be any clearer on the issue. Rehevkor ✉ 02:33, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Calm down. That's not what I accused you off at all. If you don't want to listen to what I'm trying to tell you then that's your prerogative. I suggest you do if you want to avoid future issues. Although it's clear you'd rather just assume bad faith than actually listen, so I'll leave it at this. Good luck in all your future endeavours. Rehevkor ✉ 12:53, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Five.tv

I have nominated Five.tv, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Five.tv. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
