Propagandhi

I reverted your changes to Propagandhi. If you can provide some proof that the R.W.P.O. was involved in the recording of Portage La Prairie, I'd like to see it. It sounds like John K. Samson and the track is credited as Propagandhi. There is no mention of R.W.P.O. anywhere in the liner notes, either.Wyatt Riot 09:57, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics to Portage La Prairie: Portage La Prairie (x3) / Portage... / Portage La Prairie (x2) / Great place to visit / Portage La Prairie / Welcome to Portage / I like to be (?) / I like to go to 7-11 / I like (x2) / I like porridge / in the morning, I eat Portage, I mean porridge, in the morning / In the morning, I eat porridge, in Portage / Yeah, yeah / So, I just wanna say one thing, and that is: C'mon! / Yeah, c'mon man! / Stop! / Stonehenge / The dust settles / Then we all die."

Definitely not your average Propagandhi song, but they're credited as the authors on the album and on the Recess Records website, plus the track was listed on the old version of their official discography. Maybe it's a cover or, I admit, some elaborate joke.

Quite honestly, I was so quick to revert because your edit made very little sense. It looked to me like vandalism, even though I browsed through the rest of your edits and they were more professional.

Let me know if this is the song you're talking about. Maybe I could send you the song somehow. I doubt Propagandhi would mind.Wyatt Riot 21:48, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the Propagandhi version is a parody? Or the R.W.P.O. version is a parody of the Propagandhi version? (Depending on which came first.)Wyatt Riot 04:32, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Socialist Party

I reverted the additions you made to the article Socialist Party, removing the New Democratic Party and Quebec Solidaire. I did this because the page is for political parties that call themselves "Socialist Party", not for parties with socialist ideologies, sympathies, or ideals. Better places to list the parties you added might be list of political parties in Canada or list of social democratic parties, both of which already include them. -David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 03:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pawley and McFadyen

The information doesn't belong on the Pawley bio, but it could be included on McFadyen's page fairly easily. CJCurrie 22:29, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Giganticep.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Giganticep.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Fritz S. (Talk) 14:49, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brad Wall

The winner of an election does not immediately become the incumbent on election night — until Brad Wall is formally sworn into office, he is only the premier-designate, not the actual premier. Lorne Calvert will still be the incumbent premier tomorrow morning, and Saturday, and Sunday, and for at least another week (more likely two). Bearcat 11:32, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, my point isn't politically motivated — it's just that Wikipedia's job is to privilege accuracy when that conflicts with common perception. And until Wall is actually sworn in as premier, there always exists the remote possibility that something strange could happen that would make, say, Rod Gantefoer or June Draude or some other member of the Saskatchewan Party caucus premier instead of Wall. Not that it's likely or anything, of course, but never say never. It's perfectly valid and correct to make edits that describe Wall as premier-designate — we just can't say that he's the incumbent premier until he's actually sworn into office, that's all.

Anyway, after 16 years in office, almost any party needs to go through a bit of a renewal and recharging process. New members, new ideas, new fire in the belly, yadda yadda. So while it's always a bit sad to see conservatives win anything, it was pretty inevitable that there was going to be a change of government eventually. Bearcat 21:02, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Ccflogo.gif

Image:Ccflogo.gif is being used on this article. 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 this Wikipedia article 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.

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 insure 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 there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:QMJHL Presidents Cup.jpeg

Thanks for uploading Image:QMJHL Presidents Cup.jpeg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 07:16, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:QMJHL Presidents Cup.jpeg)

Thanks for uploading Image:QMJHL Presidents Cup.jpeg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 09:41, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Doornails (song)

I have nominated Doornails (song), an article that you created, for deletion.

Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Fair use rationale for File:Tom_Morello_Union_Town.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Tom_Morello_Union_Town.jpg. 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.

File permission problem with File:The ex band2011.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:The ex band2011.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:50, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Should the women's football task force become WikiProject: WOSO?

According to an op-ed in the recent Signpost, some editors think task forces and subgroups are dying in 2017.

What do you think about forming our own WikiProject separate from WP:FOOTY? There's an on-going discussion of the potential pros and cons on the task force talk page. Input is welcome.

WP:WOSO News: October 2020

Hello WOSO editors!

What a year to be alive. As usual (but perhaps even moreso since there have been unexpected quarantines), there has been a lot of activity on player, team, league and tournament-related Wikipedia articles with all of the worldwide coverage of women's football / soccer. Great work!

Every little bit helps! Thanks for your contributions!

Did you know...

WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in two currently active women's leagues)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}
