AfD nomination of 100% Hits: The Best of 2006

[edit]

An editor has nominated 100% Hits: The Best of 2006, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/100% Hits: The Best of 2006 and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 13:59, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:PaRapperTheRapperScreenshots.jpg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:PaRapperTheRapperScreenshots.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:48, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:From The Inside - Linkin Park.ogg)

Thanks for uploading Image:From The Inside - Linkin Park.ogg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

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 '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.

Video preview for "Don't stop the music" by Rihanna

[edit]

Hi, I'm working at wikipedia.ro and I really need a software to covert avi, mpg, mp4 files in ogg video files for wikipedia. How you do it, at rihanna music video !? Thanks so much ! Tony2131 (talk) 20:43, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
| Hi. I use mplayer/mencoder usually along with ffmpeg2theora. Firstly I convert the source from whatever format it's in to an avi with RAW video and maybe pcm or copied audio. (this is needed because sometimes ffmpeg2theora doesn't like the normal source format). Then I go to ffmpeg2theora and convert it with pretty much the default settings, and upload the result to Wikipedia. Usually I have found that it is easier to create the excerpt with mencoder because it's more accurate and your then not wasting space storing RAW video of bits you dont need. These are all command line applications, and they are available for pretty much every system.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Crank That (Soulja Boy).ogg

  • Explicit, I have clarified the rationale for non-free content use in Wikipedia on the file's description page, much of it being borrowed from my reasoning for keep when previously nominated for deletion.

Thanks for uploading File:Google video.png. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

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.

Fair use rationale for File:The_Pretty_Reckless_-_Make_Me_Wanna_Die.ogg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:The_Pretty_Reckless_-_Make_Me_Wanna_Die.ogg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 non-free media 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 06:27, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:The Simpsons Opening Credits Circus Couch Gag.ogg listed for deletion

[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:The Simpsons Opening Credits Circus Couch Gag.ogg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music.ogg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music.ogg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rodhullandemu 15:24, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:38, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Adammw/Sandbox/List of characters in The Simpsons and images

[edit]

Hi Adammw, I got to the above page when looking at new uploads. Past consensus has been that the non-free content policy does not allow illustration of such list-of articles and it is likely that they will be removed or deleted. Please see Wikipedia:NFC#Non-free_image_use_in_list_articles - Peripitus (Talk) 09:26, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is this a blanket rule on the use of images in lists? Most of the images have not been uploaded and are primarily used in their main articles, their non-free fair use status should be unaffected. Adammw (talk) 09:33, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes and no. There are few blanket rules here but many firmly enforced guidlines. The image you recently uploaded that is only used in the list-of article would likely not survive a files-for-deletion discussion. For the others you need a detailed rationale that shows how having the image in each and every place it is used significantly increases reader's understanding of the topic. Though the image may be ok here for one use (say illustrating the Homer Simpson article with an image of the character) it may not be ok in other places. In general items (or characters) in lists are not individually illustrated with non-free images as consensus has formed that this use does not pass the significance test (non-free content criteria #8) - Peripitus (Talk) 09:47, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion on linking to streamed copies of albums

[edit]

Wikipedia policy allows us to link to legal streamed copies of albums. It would be useful to draw up a guideline on how and when to link to such albums; however, there is concern that it may not be appropriate as the music would not be available in all parts of the world. Is the benefit of having access to the music for most users outweighed by the fact that some users will follow a link to find the music is not playable in their region? Your view would be helpful at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums. SilkTork ✔Tea time 01:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
