Orphaned fair use image (Image:Delphian-logo.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Delphian-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 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Bigr Tex 14:35, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Signum Records[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Signum Records, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.signumrecords.com/about_us/index.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 14:00, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Signum Records[edit]

A tag has been placed on Signum Records, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD a1.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. — madman bum and angel 22:33, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Matthew Schellhorn[edit]

The article Matthew Schellhorn has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Notability and possible copyright concerns.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I can retrieve the page history of the deleted Matthew Schellhorn page and move them to a subpage of your userpage. Would that be useful? Der yck C. 08:06, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good sources are apparently available; the article refers to reviews in major publications, though it does not give the specifics beyond giving the name of the journal. Reviews of that sort are the ideal source for proving notability of a performer. However, the article does read like copyvio to me also--it's the sort of artist bio that is typically found on a program note. If you rewrite in your own words and cite the sources exactly there should be no problem with an article. (Be aware , tho, that we regard phrases like "promising young performer" as an indication of being not yet notable.) DGG ( talk ) 19:43, 26 February 2014 (UTC) ,[reply]

Very helpful both of you. If it becomes a subpages can I rewrite and republish? HFJ ( talk ) 19:57, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Here it is. User:HFJ/Matthew Schellhorn. DGG has already given good advice about rewriting the article. Der yck C. 14:32, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

How does it look now? Is it in a position to publish? HFJ (talk) 22:21, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Looks okay. Consider including the publisher / news agency (using the publisher= field in the citation templates) of the external sources for better source clarity. Then you can just move to mainspace. Maybe submit a WP:DYK (must be done within 5 days of moving to mainspace) to get more readership and article scrutiny.

Teutonic Knights[edit]

I reverted your change to this article. imperialteutonicorder.com is not associated with the real Hohenzollerns. See this article for a concise explanation of the phenomenon. Choess (talk) 23:54, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely fine. I thought it was legitimate but then quickly realised. HFJ (talk) 23:56, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
