Fair use rationale for Image:Bel canto.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Bel canto.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 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 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. 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. G1ggy Talk/Contribs 22:43, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
Adoption
Hi, Z1720. I noticed you were offering adoption, so I'd like to offer you my services. If you accept, please respond on my talk page. Thanks, - G1ggy Talk/Contribs 02:43, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Adoption Task
User:G1ggy/Adopt/1G1ggy Talk/Contribs 21:57, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry for the late reply, but excellent work. You've obviously done some great work on that article, so congrats! As critique, if you could include the author of this page, it would be more useful (in the reference), because I doubt "HaperCollins" wrote it. Obviously, it might be hard to find out who the author is, and HarperCollins would be OK in this case. But it's better to have a real name. Otherwise, well done. When you're ready, I'll give you task 2. G1ggy Talk/Contribs 08:08, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello Z1720 - friendly notice regarding Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/KatrinaNewOrleansFlooded.jpg. I've made an edit that attempts to reduce the grain. Take a look if you get a moment. Debivort 05:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Welcome to Novels WikiProject
Hi, and welcome to the Novels WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to fiction books often referred to as "Novels".
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated quite regularly. You can watch it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WikiProject_Novels_announcements}} there.
While you are updating your userpage, don't forget our userbox {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Outreach/User WPNOVELS}}. - The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered as a link, but other methods are available.
There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:
- Starting some new articles? Our article structure guidelines / template outlines some things to include.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the members, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 10:45, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
As requested, addtional citations have been added to the article. I have left a message with the original uploader of the image of the Lutheran pastor to see if he can provide clarification on the image. Please let me know if further work is necessary. -- jackturner3 20:57, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
- As requested, I have cited all the information you have marked with the {{fact}} tag. Please review the updates and let me know if there is anything further required. -- jackturner3 14:05, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
I've done my best to address the issues which were holding the article back from GA. Hopefully you can make it a GA now! Thanks :) UnaLaguna 18:22, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
I have completed the changes you have outlined. --Клоун 01:34, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- Are you re-putting it on hold? Does it mean I have another 48 hours to complete the changes? --Клоун 13:54, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
- I've done most the changes outlined, but some of them I haven't done; please see the article talk page for more detailed explanation. BTW, would you be interested in looking at Ray Emery, another article I'm working on that I've put up for GA status? Клоун 15:11, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Can you take a look at the article? I've done some cleaning of it, and I'm curious as whether I'm on the right track, in relation to your hold improvements. Just leave a comment on the talkpage. Клоун 15:06, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm SO sorry, I totally missed your comments! Sorry!!!

Excellent work in task 2!
User:G1ggy/Adopt/3 Giggy UCP 05:56, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
I've 
Done all corretions requested. BTW, another useful tip for vandalfighting is watching for IP's that have talkpages; they're more likely to vandalise. Клоун 14:12, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
- Hey Z1720, nice work on this GA review, on hold, etc. Just as a note, remember to update Template:GA number when you change the content at WP:GA. Happy editing, Giggy UCP 22:38, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
In this case, you should tag it with {{subst:nrd}} and remove the fair use rationale for the non existent article. You are correct in saying it doesn't improve the article at all, so it should be tagged. On another note, sorry about the adoption task, I missed your (unsigned!) message, but I've looked at it now. Expect another task...just below ;) Giggy UCP 22:02, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Task 4
User:Giggy/Adopt/4 Giggy UCP 22:02, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, looks good. The CSD article was deleted already (well done there), but I didn't see a CSD warning handed out? It's good practice to do this especially for CSD articles, because the user may otherwise miss the opportunity to add {{hangon}} (unless they ALWAYS monitor their watchlist :P).
- On another note, I noticed you installed Speedy-er into your monobook. Does it work for you? Needless to say, I'm having troubles getting it to work for me, and I have no idea why...Anyways, I'll get task 5 to you soon, just leave me a diff for the CSD warning if you have one, or else respond on my page acknowledging that you're ready. Thanks, and happy editing! Giggy UCP 22:20, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- re. monobook: If you copy TW from my monobook (and if you use FF 2), it should work. As for Speedy-er...I'll have to ask someone to help me debug it.
- re. Task 5: It's coming now! I suppose it's pointless to dish out a warning now, just remember in the future ;) Giggy UCP 03:27, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Ray Emery
I've submitted it for a peer review, so I'm inviting you to comment on it. You might notice that I've added two new sections (Early Life, and Personal Life). Cheers! Evilclown93 14:01, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- PS: If you want to send me a copy of the speedy deletion diffs when I'm online, I can delete the article as I'm a sysop, while Giggy isn't one (but hopefully in the coming weeks, he'll also be one.) Evilclown93 14:01, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- Heh, I saw that ;) Giggy UCP 22:12, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

You marked "Joshua Berdugo" for deletion for copyright violation, but I am the owner of the www.loebtree.com website and I allow the use of my material on the wikipedia. Can you restore my page. Thank you.

Children of Guiding Light
There is nothing controversial I edited, what I edited was FACT! Cassie Layne Winslow son, R.J.'s last name is NOT Winslow..its Jessup. Richard only adopted Tammy because her father was a drug dealer who abused Cassie. R.J. had a father, he was only killed. That's why his name is R.J. for Roger Joshua Jessup! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.3.0.130 (talk) 05:42, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
