Upon further considering your revert of my earlier edit on artist Myles Murphy, it occurred to me that in our shared Anglophone version of Wikipedia, my fellow USA-educated readers are likely to be unfamiliar with Commonwealth-based cultural figures. Only after a second look at the categories did I notice "English artist" where I had written "British." I do believe the designation would be helpful unless the MOS strictly rules it out. Your input is kindly requested at Talk:Myles Murphy#Add nationality to lead paragraph. -- Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 20:09, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Christopher Gibbs.jpg Thanks for uploading File:Christopher Gibbs.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:
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. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:35, 6 May 2017 (UTC) DYK nomination of Walter Sydney Lazarus-Barlow

A tag has been placed on Lin Li (scientist) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.
