User talk:Blumpkin

Welcome to Wikipedia! Your energy and knowledge will be of great use here. I see that you've added sub-categories for the dates for articles of particular days. Please refrain from doing so. I am in the act of removing them all from all dates. I use these pages for my U.S. History class, and the sub-categories get in the way of the lessons.

As you settle in with this community, please take a look (you may have read some of them already) at some pages to further your understanding of the community, and the wikipedia project:

Keep up the good work! Kingturtle 21:43, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia as a result of your disruptive edits.

Non-free use disputed for Image:Ramones_album_cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ramones_album_cover.jpg. Unfortunately, I think that you have not provided a proper rationale for using this image under "fair use". 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. Note that the image description page must include the exact name or a link to each article the image is used in and a separate rationale for each one. (If a link is used, automated processes may improperly add the related tag to the image. Please change the fair use template to refer to the exact name, if you see this warning.)

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -Nard 00:47, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Guided By Voices Day Los Angeles.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Guided By Voices Day Los Angeles.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly ^hi! 21:00, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File:Bobpollard.jpg missing description details

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:Bobpollard.jpg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:24, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
