Hi, you aren't by chance the former user IntegrityMedia1, are you? Chubbles (talk) 19:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd just ask that you read the guidelines at WP:COI. If you work for/are associated with Integrity Media, I'd advise against editing in topics closely associated with the company. Chubbles (talk) 19:48, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:

Not really, it's done on a case-by-case basis. If you add two or three outside references you can usually delete a "primarysources" or "refimprove" tag and it's fine. Chubbles (talk) 19:38, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, no one reads your talk page unless they have a reason to. And most people don't respond to questions on article talk pages unless the article is on their watchlist. It's kind of like throwing darts when you're drunk; every once in a while you hit somebody. If you really need to get a hold of somebody, anybody, you can put this on your talk page - {{helpme}} - and someone will come and talk to you. Chubbles (talk) 20:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} When is it appropriate to include a reference from a myspace page or an external link to a myspace page?

As for a reference, almost never. As for an external link, it seems to be okay to use it only if the singer in question is unquestionably notable. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 20:21, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, WP:EL specifically forbids MySpace. So even in that case, I wouldn't recommend it. Only when you have a really good reason to. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 20:22, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tsk, tsk. A MySpace link is a legitimate external link if it is an official band/artist page; we even have a template, {{myspace}}, for this usage. Chubbles (talk) 20:30, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} Is there a way to delete an image which you have submitted to Wikimedia?WorshipGuy22 (talk) 20:22, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit the image page and add {{db-author}}. –xeno (talk) 20:33, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
