Orphaned non-free image File:New Orleans Saints Primary Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:New Orleans Saints Primary Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

New Orleans Saints logo

Hello, I’m hoping you get this message since you seemed to miss my first revision. The gold Saints logo is the one that appears on official logo sheets of NFL teams, and is also presented as gold on the official NFL and ESPN websites. Reasoning that the black logo is the primary on the basis of it being the helmet and field logo is not valid here on Wikipedia. The Jets have a partial logo on their helmets currently and that’s not considered primary. Nor or the Rams, Vikings, or Eagles symmetrical helmet horns/wings.

In addition to this, even if you were right in this situation, the file you replaced it with is a JPG file. On every team article, it is required that all presentation primary logos and word marks be a SVG file. I hope this was informative, thank you for reading.--GalaxyFighter55 (talk) 02:43, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

Grateful Dead

Greetings, Spoondivy! Thank you for your contributions to the Grateful Dead discography article, and to other Dead-related articles. Also, let me know if you have any questions or comments. I've been around the block a few times here on Wikipedia, and I'm pretty much into Grateful Dead albums. "P.S." Have a happy MMXX! — Mudwater ^(Talk) 23:40, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

American Beauty (album)

Thanks for adding the bonus tracks but please see WP:DASH, Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice#Track_listing, and the documentation at {{track listing}} (i.e. there is a field for songwriters and it's not Notes). Let me know if you have any questions. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:19, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi Spoondivy. Yes, thanks for adding the 50th Anniversary Edition bonus tracks. — Mudwater ^(Talk) 23:13, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Don't edit war over style issues. When there is an established style, it stays. See WP:CITEVAR and WP:ENGVAR, for instance. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:08, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

As I have mentioned now, several times, you need to stop. See WP:ALBUMSTYLE, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, WP:ENGVAR, WP:CITEVAR, WP:EDITWARRING, and (e.g. among many) Dick's Picks Volume 34. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:13, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

As suggested above, go and read the relevant *Wikipedia documentation* (Have you done so? It is the underlying basis for how Wikipedia works), and then come back and attempt to rationally argue for your point of view. Your current approach is quite unproductive.Finney1234 (talk) 12:48, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

Spoondivy: I added a discussion section to Talk:American Beauty; it would be a good place to have a public discussion of your reasons for the repeated reversions. Such discussions are typically an educational and useful process :-). Finney1234 (talk) 13:31, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

Request reason:

Your reason here Are you dumb bastards that stupid. You don't think Spoondivy is that stupid do you???? What's to prevent I me mine from just going to another computer , say at my local library, and creating a new username and password? So just stop with the high handedness. Y'all are no more important than the worms under my feet. Yes I am here to help build the wiki, but here's what rubs me the wrong way about this site. If someone makes an edit in complete good faith and some elitist yo-yo comes along and sez, bad dog that's not acceptable and just goes about reverting the edit, you don't think that pisses people off? So how about trying this approach. Hi Spoondivy, I see you made and edit and changed the style of the list in the process. What was your reasoning for doing this? And then I will calmly give my answer to said inquiry. But NOOOOOOOOOO...instead it's just, bad dog go sit in the corner until you learn to follow the rules. Well let me fill y'all in on a little secret, rules are meant to be broken. I'm one of those individuals that goes that way when the rest of the lemmings are all going this way. I learned that from Neal Cassidy, look it up. So no I'm not here to appeal my block. I couldn't give a rats arst about being blocked. In fact I've already successfully created four more different user id's on this site. Oh the joys of anonymity. So like Arianna Huffington said to Brian Griffin in the Family Guy episode titled, "Brian Writes a Bestseller", "Bite me Snoopy". Spoondivy (talk) 20:22, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Tiderolls 20:29, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
