Thanks for your recent edit to Raymond Burr. It would really help if you could add an exact citation for the specific issue of TV Guide in which the comment can be found; otherwise, someone might delete it as being unverifiable. I do think this is a part of his story that needs to be told, and so if there's something I can do to help, let me know. Accounting4Taste:talk 01:03, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comment. I will retrieve the clipping and post the reference as you suggested. The News Hound 15:56, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on The Triangles requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} at the top of the article, immediately below the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate), and providing your reasons for contesting on the article's talk page, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

You may want to read the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Tryptofish (talk) 21:41, 30 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited The New Avengers (TV series), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Spin-off (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for the alert-- I will make a correction. The News Hound 13:20, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

re: Your deletion from "Ume (disambiguation)"

[edit]

Hello,

There is no article at the link to the band you'd listed at the disambiguation page and the link that was provided (Austin, Texas) did not provide any further information on that band so there is no need for the entry on that "dab" page. It is not an ambiguous term on Wikipedia. Thanks, Dawnseeker2000 20:29, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. The News Hound 13:20, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Laila Ali, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chopped (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Blue Hawaii (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Eeekster (talk) 22:11, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Your recent edit to White chocolate (disambiguation) appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. 117Avenue (talk) 03:07, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Adrian Messenger - K Douglas, WA Huston.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:23, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It was my understanding that film trailers (and images taken from same) are free from copyright restrictions because trailers are considered promotional tools, as film posters are. Is this incorrect? The News Hound 17:47, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Haim (band). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. A type of cabinet (talk) 03:28, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm unclear why you categorized my edit as disruptive. I merely restored an edit that I thought articulated an accurate characterization. I have no issue with your restoration of the deletion, and I understand your reasoning. To label my edit (or any edits I make) as disruptive is unfair and I dislike having the description attached to me. Feel free to peruse my previous edits. I find your reversal of my edit to the Haim page understandable, and in no way would I categorize your action as "disruptive." The News Hound (talk) 02:34, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
