[edit] License tagging for Image:GabeGrey.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:GabeGrey.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gabriel Grey
Hi there. The article was deleted because, frankly, it was nonsense. Whether or not someone has a weakness for lesbian dogs is not a matter for an encyclopedia. Nor is Gabriel Grey right behind me now. Feel free to contribute useful content to Wikipedia, but don't be tempted to recreate this article. Thanks. —Whouk (talk) 21:29, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: complain
First of all, Whouk isn't technically staff. He's a volunteer administrator, which simply means that he has access to a few technical features, such as the ability to delete articles. I'm not an administrator, so I don't know what the content of your Gabriel Grey article was. According to Whouk, it met Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, specifically because it was a biography on an unremarkable person. See Wikipedia's notability guidelines. If you disagree with Whouk's judgment, you are welcome to list the article at Wikipedia:Deletion review. I know you are upset by these circumstances, but remember to always remain civil. Good luck. --TantalumTelluride 23:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there. I'm sorry you took offence at my comment above - none was intended, and contributions to Wikipedia are valued. As TantalumTelluride says, like all administrators I'm a volunteer and I was rushing when I replied and didn't spend as much time as I should have on my reply - sorry. I'm afraid that you are quite right and that I have no concept of professional wrestling at all. The content is not lost - any deleted article can be restored. I'll make the text you posted available to you at User:TheInno/Gabriel Grey so you can continue working on it.
- I'm sorry that you weren't aware what had happened to it. It will have been proposed for deletion by another user who should have posted a message hear explaining that. I hope you will continue to contribute - it would be a real shame to lose you as an editor. Cheers. —Whouk (talk) 06:00, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
