August 2007

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, as you did at Ted Frank. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. Chuck Sirloin 21:44, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree Image:Tedfrankcspan.jpg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Tedfrankcspan.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Chuck Sirloin 21:46, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Images

Hi, no we cannot use non-free images. Free ones could be easily found. See Wikipedia:Non-free content. --Iamunknown 22:00, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Fair use" is not allowed for living persons. I again suggest that you read Wikipedia:Non-free content. I have tagged the images for deletion, using Template:Di-replaceable fair use. If you contest the tags, you may add

{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|Your reason why a free replacement can not be found or created}} in addition to the tags I added. I am fully confident in my knowledge of what is allowed on Wikipedia, and these two images are not. --Iamunknown 22:03, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Iamunknown is right. Also, please read Resolution:Licensing policy. Thanks. ElinorD (talk) 22:09, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Three revert rule

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Ted Frank. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors.
