[edit] Speedy deletion tags

Please stop removing the tags, as that is a violation of WP procedures. Please follow the instructions in the tag if you disagree with the proposed action. Thanks! Akradecki 21:00, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:WDHT-FM.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:WDHT-FM.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 Saalfeld (Talk) 19:43, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Colin Ferguson page moves

Please do not move pages unless there is a compelling need to do so, and then only after proposing the move on the article's Talk page. In this case, all that was needed was a simple disambiguation note redirecting those looking for the actor:

{{For|the Canadian actor|Colin Ferguson (actor)}}

Posting on the Talk page for discussion would have also avoided the problem of your having made three page moves (plain -> (criminal) -> (murderer) -> (mass murderer)) which, unfortunately, leaves a mess of redirects and double redirects.

Also, there is no particular point in performing a page move of that type unless you also create a disambiguation page for the name, instead of just leaving the automatically-created redirect.

I am going to undo the page move, and if you still think a page move is necessary, propose it on the Talk page for discussion. Thank you, --MCB 23:08, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
