Fair use rationale for Image:Savingaimee.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Savingaimee.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.

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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. (ESkog)^(Talk) 03:51, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Kathie Lee Gifford Headshot.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Kathie Lee Gifford Headshot.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 10:40, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Halperin source

Please actually read the source itself. It is the source, not Halperin, that verifies the claim was made six months before Jackson died. Cirt (talk) 11:59, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Because that source is WP:RS. Cirt (talk) 20:25, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shaytard

The article was deleted under WP:CSD A7 because there was no credible assertion of notability. Being on Youtube does not make someone automatically notable, since many thousands of random folks like to spend their time posting things on Youtube. I checked Google news archive, and there has never been any coverage of it in any newspaper magazine or online version of same that they include in their archives. It only gets 17000 or so Google hits. I know, Ghits are not a good measure of notability, but a "cultural phenomenon" usually has more Ghits and includes coverage on review sites which might arguably be reliable sources. Instead what comes up are Youtube and some blogs. You could request at Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion that the deleted article be "userfied" by being moved (so that all contributions are kept in the history) toa subpage of your account. Then you could improve it by adding reliable sources with significant coverage, to satisfy notability. If there are not multiple such sources, then it would eventually most likely get deleted through WP:AFD, even if it is an interesting and entertaining Youtube series of programs.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Saving Aimee Advertising Poster.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Saving Aimee Advertising Poster.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. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:08, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for May 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited WMAL (AM), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Larry O'Connor. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
