Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Allumni, by DarkSaber2k (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Allumni is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Allumni, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 09:11, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Markgasser1.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Markgasser1.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Re: Mark Gasser
[edit]Hi, thanks for your message. I explained all the changes that I made to the Mark Gasser article in my edit summaries. Firstly, the given source nowhere claims to list the "100 most famous people of all time to ever have come from South Yorkshire"—this claim is therefore simply false. Secondly, I removed the lead title per the manual of style (see also Wikipedia:Lead section). Thirdly, you say that you have spent a lot of time researching the article, it should therefore not be a problem for you to cite your sources—Wikipedia is not a place of first publication; all facts must first have been published elsewhere by reliable sources (see also WP:NOR). As far as I can see the reviews listed at the end of the article are not sources for the facts given in the article—in fact the listed reviews really add nothing to the article and could be removed. —Jeremy (talk) 05:17, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
Sources
[edit]Hey there, I've looked into the sources you provided and must say I'm not exactly overwhelmed. Unfortunately, most of them do not qualify as references in any serious, notability-related way. —AldeBaer 03:13, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
- It would certainly help if you could come up with exact references (i.e. issue and date etc, ideally availabe online) of Paul Driver (Sunday Times, UK) and Chris Morley (Birmingham Post UK) mentioned here, and particularly for the pop-music-collaborations mentioned in the article ("worked with many contemporary popular artists such as P!nk, Tara Hanrahan, Jarvis Cocker and Björk") —AldeBaer 13:24, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Markgasser1.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Markgasser1.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.
If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 04:47, 23 August 2013 (UTC)
