Speedy deletion nomination of Max Hardberger
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Max Hardberger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Montana Fishburne

A tag has been placed on Montana Fishburne 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 person or group of people, but it does not 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on 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.

Fair use rationale for File:LaurenceMontana640 397x224.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:LaurenceMontana640 397x224.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file 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 '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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 22:32, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

License tagging for File:The Affair movie poster.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:The Affair movie poster.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 14:06, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Removing Speedy at V-Nasty
Hi Ronjohn, you recently removed a deletion tag from V-Nasty. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 00:57, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Ronjohn. I noticed you, or another editor created a Requests for Adminship page under your name, and I was wondering as to what the status of that request might be. Please note that new users are rarely successful at RfA and that the Wikipedia editing community sets an extremely high bar for potential administrator candidates. That being said, I strongly urge you to read Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship, Wikipedia:Adminship is not for new users, and Wikipedia:Not now, and ask you to reconsider whether you really do wish to go through with your candidacy; please understand that you stand very little to no chance of passing RfA at this point and that you are strongly discouraged from running for adminship. If you are still intent on running for adminship with that request and are absolutely positive this is what you want, please do let me know; otherwise, I'll go ahead and delete the RfA page for you in about a week or so from today. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:49, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- If you are determined to run for adminship despite my advice, you will need to transclude your RfA at WP:RFA by following the instructions at WP:RFA/N. Eagles 24/7 (C) 21:28, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- Failure to listen to wise counsel would not only torpedo this RFA, but any future one. Actually running for RFA when you don't meet even the most minimum of criteria would probably add another 12,000 required edits and at least a year before you could even think of trying again. RFA is not a big deal - but the community is pretty serious about how it selects admins (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:45, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi there. I noticed you put your RfA inside of someone else's RfA, which I've undone.

We appreciate your contributions to the page Taxation in the Bahamas, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition was deleted under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text—which means allowing other people to modify it—then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License." You may also e-mail or mail the Foundation to release the content. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more.
While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright concerns very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page.

RfA closed per WP:NOTNOW
I'm sorry, but I have closed your RfA early. I hope you don't take this personally, because if you were to continue to contribute to Wikipedia in a positive manner, you would be able to submit a successful RfA in the future. Good luck! Bmusician 04:26, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
- This is somewhat unfortunate. WP:NOTNOW is really intended for situations in which an inexperienced editor strays into RFA without knowing what they are getting into. Ronjohn was given ample warning that his RFA had little chance of success but was insistent that it went ahead. I had hoped the RFA would have been allowed to run long enough to make it clear that the intention behind the advice offered was genuine.

- Both ronjohn and I have asked Bmusician to undo the early close (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 09:38, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Final Warning
This is your final warning. To be honest if you were editing more regularly I'd have already blocked you but we only block to stop harm to the encyclopaedia I think little harm is likely to come from giving you one final chance. You really do need to take notice of what people have said on this page. You have, or appear to have:
- Logged out to continue a edit war as an IP. This is considered sock puppetry and not allowed.
- Ignored our biography of living persons policy by inserting material without a reliable source to support it.
- Copy and pasted from other websites in violation of copyright law and our policy.
Many new editors make some of these mistakes but most listen to the advice they're given by more experienced editors. I suggest you read and make sure you understand WP:SOCKPUPPET, WP:BLP and WP:COPYPASTE. I for one, and I suspect many others, will now be closely watching you and another transgression in any of these areas will see you blocked. I suspect many admins would already have blocked you by now so I suggest you tread very carefully and try to abide by all our policies and guidelines. Dpmuk (talk) 04:41, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
RfA reopened
Per your request, I have reopened your RfA. Best of luck. Also, please don't use capital letters on my talk page...that can be perceived as shouting... Bmusician 09:53, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Your recent RfA
I am sorry, but I have closed your Request for adminship prematurely. Simply put, you only have 842 edits on Wikipedia; while your edit count isn't the only determining factor, and numerous people have their own personal standards by which they judge RfA candidates, this particular RfA was all but assured of not passing.
I am sorry about this, and I hope you don't take it personally. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I am confident that you would be able to submit a successful RfA in the future. You may wish to consider applying for an evaluation by other Wikipedia editors for feedback on how to obtain the necessary experience. Once you are ready to request adminship again, there is a great admin coaching program available, as well as a guide to requests for adminship.
If you have any other questions about becoming an administrator, please don't hesitate to ask me. Good luck! —Tom Morris (talk) 14:19, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Ronjohn. I notice that you requested that your RfA was kept open when it had previously been closed. Tom closed it as it was definitely not going to pass, meaning that keeping it open is disruptive - effectively using the ignore all rules clause which one of Wikipedia's principles. I was in the process of doing exactly the same myself, but got called away from my desk.
- This doesn't mean that you will never become an administrator, but I think you'll need to change your attitude a little before you do become one. And even if you don't, there's plenty to do here instead. If you'd like to discuss things further, feel free to give me a shout. Cheers WormTT · (talk) 14:54, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Per your message on Tom Morris' talk page:
“ | Per WP:NOTNOW I do not accept the early please allow me my the same right as anyone else and not treat me differently. Please allow this to run it's course even if it has no way of passing.--Ron John (talk) 15:01, 27 March 2012 (UTC) | ” |
You are being treated the same as anyone else. It is in nobody's interest to keep an RFA open when it is clear it has no chance whatsoever to succeed. The initial WP:NOTNOW was applied prematurely, given your apparent refusal to accept the advice offered by others that it would not succeed. After 23 opposes and no supports, WP:SNOW is clearly in effect. Catfish Jim and the soapdish 15:19, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Hey Ronjohn. I'm sorry this has worked out so badly for you. Can I just say, here and now, there was absolutely nothing wrong with you submitting that RfA. Anyone wanting to take that up, can take it up with me. You do not need any "approval" from anyone to run for RfA. However, it was doomed to failure - as a number of editors have told you. These editors have watched many RfAs, and can see general trends. In fact, I've done a lot of research on RfA, which can be found at RfA Reform. When it is clear that something is going to fail, we do stop the process, because there is no good reason to carry it on - which is something that's happened here. Now, we let it run for a while to show it was going to fail, but carrying it on for a week would just be bureaucracy for the sake of it. This would be true for any editor, and I can give you a number of examples if you like.
With regards to the "attitude" comment, (at least in theory) Wikipedia is a community, no one voice is more important than others. It's the points that are made that matter. However, when one voice ignores what the community as a whole is telling them, it causes disruption. That doesn't mean you are wrong, or that you have to lie about your views, but what it does mean is that you have to accept that the rest of the community is saying and give it a rest. I've got your page watchlisted, I'll try to help out if I can. WormTT · (talk) 07:57, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Hello. You have a new message at Achowat's talk page.
Amber
I don't like your addition cited to that youtube video but decided not to bother removing it -I did however tweak the content as the bio is about her and not L Monroe - diffs - Youreallycan 19:37, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
- Last time I checked wikipedia is not about what you like you. As you indicated on my talk page that you didn't like my edit. Please provide actual wikipedia guidlines as to why you removed my comment. Please refrain from personal feelings on wikipedia as most wikipedian editors.--Ron John (talk) 19:46, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
- I removed the coatracking part again - I see other users are objecting to your contributions in regards to this addition and one, an admin has warned you in regards to a block - I suggest if you continue to edit war this into the article against objections it may have consequences - Youreallycan 19:54, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:18, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
