User talk:Green Tentacle/Archive 5
I'm not active enough on Wikipedia any more to justify having archived talk pages, so I've moved everything back to my main talk page

==Image copyright problem with File:What Do I Wish for Now.jpg== |
|||
Thanks for uploading [[:File:What Do I Wish for Now.jpg]]. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of [[WP:NFC|fair use]], but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets [[WP:NFCC|Wikipedia's requirements for such images]]. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|explanation]] linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check |
|||
:* That there is a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|non-free use rationale]] on the image's description page for each article the image is used in. |
|||
:* That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page. |

:Erm, the image fulfils the stated criteria. It is only used in one article, which is explicitly named and linked to, using Wikipedia's [[Template:Non-free use rationale|recommended template]]. - [[User:Green Tentacle|Green Tentacle]] ([[User talk:Green Tentacle#top|talk]]) 19:24, 10 January 2009 (UTC) |

== Irony at WJEC == |
|||
I'm just finishing cleaning up the aftermath of your renaming of the article for radio station WJEC, and one of the incoming links to [[WJEC]] was your talk page archive #3 which included this text from you: "Image:WJEC.png has a perfectly good fair use rationale. The problem is that someone else has moved the article from WJEC to Welsh Joint Education Committee. But, because this is Wikipedia, it is my fault that the the user who moved the article did not update the image's fair use rationale, in just the same it will be my fault the next time someone decides to update the fair use rationale guidelines, making all images I've uploaded in the past invalid." I thought you'd appreciate the irony that this time it was ''your'' move of the article at [[WJEC]] that required the updating of a fair use template (this time for the radio station's logo). It's no big deal—I just thought you'd get the same kind of chuckle out of this that I did. - [[User:Dravecky|Dravecky]] ([[User talk:Dravecky|talk]]) 04:19, 14 April 2009 (UTC) |

:I guess there is a certain sense of irony! |
|||
:Technically, I didn't move the article, but as I requested the move, I did spend a while fixing some incoming links ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_radio_stations_in_Alabama&diff=prev&oldid=283668199 here], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_FM_radio_stations_in_the_United_States_by_call_sign_(initial_letters_WG-WJ)&diff=prev&oldid=283668237 here], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=106.5_FM&diff=prev&oldid=283668294 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WJEC_106.5_FM&diff=prev&oldid=283668399 here]). Alas, another user changed one of my edits, which is where you came in to fix it. |
|||
:I deliberately left the radio station's fair use rationale because the excellent [[User:FairuseBot|FairuseBot]] now fixes these rationales automatically. The previous issue about the exam board's logo was because [[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] found the image and rudely shout at me, when I'd done nothing wrong (hence the rant which you quoted above). Luckily, that bot has now been banned. |
|||
:An [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Betacommand/20071201#Disputed_fair_use_rationale_for_Image:WJEC.png extended version of the discussion] is available, if you're interested. |
|||
:Thank you for updating the radio station's rationale. This is the way Wikipedia should work: users working together, not bots shouting at people. |
|||
:Thanks. - [[User:Green Tentacle|Green Tentacle]] ([[User talk:Green Tentacle#top|talk]]) 13:53, 14 April 2009 (UTC) |

==Notability of [[:SPC ECO]]== |
|||
[[Image:Ambox warning pn.svg|left|48px|]] A tag has been placed on [[:SPC ECO]] requesting that it be [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedily deleted]] from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]]. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the [[WP:Your first article|guide to writing your first article]]. |
|||
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{tl|hangon}} to the top of the article ('''just below''' the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[Talk:SPC ECO|the article's 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 confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. |
|||
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|for biographies]], [[WP:WEB|for web sites]], [[WP:BAND|for bands]], or [[WP:CORP|for companies]]. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

{{tl|hangon}} to '''the top of [[:3-D (album)|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[Talk:3-D (album)|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|one of these admins]] to request that they [[Wikipedia:Userfication#Userfication_of_deleted_content|userfy]] the page or have a copy emailed to you.

==Proposed deletion of 3-D (album)== |
|||
[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|48px|]] |
|||
A [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] template has been added to the article [[3-D (album)]], suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern: |
|||
:not convinced of notability of band or album |
|||
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Criteria for inclusion|criteria for inclusion]], and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|What Wikipedia is not]]" and [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|Wikipedia's deletion policy]]). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{tl|dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on [[Talk:3-D (album)|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 [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion process]], the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion criteria]] or it can be sent to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for Deletion]], where it may be deleted if [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] to delete is reached.
