Replaceable fair use File:Safe house in Faisalabad where Abu Zubaydah was captured.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Safe house in Faisalabad where Abu Zubaydah was captured.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 19:47, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:

  • This permission does not give you any special status or authority
  • Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
  • You may wish to display the {{Autopatrolled}} top icon and/or the {{User wikipedia/autopatrolled}} userbox on your user page
  • If, for any reason, you decide you do not want the permission, let me know and I can remove it
If you have any questions about the permission, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy editing!HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 06:42, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Janet Hamlin for deletion

[edit]

The article Janet Hamlin is being discussed concerning whether it is suitable for inclusion as an article according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Janet Hamlin until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. IQinn (talk) 08:06, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

It seems like you have very frequently linked to the authors of the articles you cite when using {{Cite news}}. Many times, these reporters are non-notable, and the redlinks are unlikely to ever be filled correctly. For example, is anyone ever going to write an aricle on Mike Melia, an unremarkable AP reporter? Perhaps it would be better to only link to reporters who already have articles. -LtNOWIS (talk) 03:32, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NOINDEX

[edit]

Could you please keep up with your promise to add the NOINDEX tag to the pages in your user space?

This has been a point of tension for over a year now and you still frequently do not add the tag. I have just done it for you again here. Thank you IQinn (talk) 00:49, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please recheck. Please note the file bears a {{userspace draft}}. Please recognize that {{Userspace draft}} includes __NOINDEX__. Geo Swan (talk) 08:09, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
