Salamander Square

[edit]

The article Salamander Square has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a subject but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. -- Merope Talk 00:06, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, that won't work--that will only prove that the band exists, and that's not what is in dispute. What is at stake is the fact that the band is not notable; that is, they are not significant enough to warrant an entry in an encyclopedia. Please see WP:MUSIC for information about what determines the notability of a musical group. -- Merope Talk 00:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, has the band had any press coverage? Gone on a national tour? Click WP:MUSIC and see if they satisfy any of those requirements. Also, please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by putting ~~~~; this will automatically insert your username and the time. Thanks! -- Merope Talk 00:21, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you did sign it correctly.  :) Unfortunately, YouTube is not a reliable source. I'm afraid that, right now, the band doesn't have the significance needed to be in an encyclopedia. Perhaps someday they will, and then you can create the article. Right now, you might want to check out MySpace or some similar service to create a listing for them. Thank you for being so patient, and I hope you will find other ways to contribute to Wikipedia! I'll add the welcome message here so you have some links showing you where to start. Cheers! -- Merope Talk 00:29, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Protected pages

[edit]

We don't typically protect pages unless they receive a lot of vandalism in a short period of time. I've reverted the vandalism and the page should be accurate. (I guess, I don't really know anything about Pokémon!) If you're interested in fighting vandalism, you can check out Help:Reverting to learn how to revert changes. Cheers! -- Merope Talk 00:48, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Kenta.gif

[edit]

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

If you are the copyright holder for 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-en@wikimedia.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-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ramaksoud2000 (Talk to me) 00:00, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
