This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Grace McKeaney, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.filmmakers.com/contests/2007/win/interviews/mckeaney_holaway.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

The alleged copyvio content I took from the edit of The Education of Max Bickford as of May 29, 2008, at 22:30. I don't know why the robot didn't flag it back then when it was in that article, and I don't care. I'll just quickly rewrite the article (mostly a hack job, to be honest) and hopefully through cumulative edits by other people, all the info will get added back in without merely copying from that source.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:DamesBoisBoulogne.png)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:DamesBoisBoulogne.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:18, 27 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Road to Germany

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Road to Germany, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, 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, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. - Icewedge (talk) 21:18, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

If you think the AfD's, both of them, were in error please contest that decision at WP:DRV instead of reposing to the mainspace claiming the AfD's were invalid. - Icewedge (talk) 21:20, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Reliable Souces

edit

If I assume that post was a request to understand Wikipedia's sourcing, hopefully this will help you. Two good places to start looking for reliable sourced material are books.google.com and news.google.com Most of the hits you find in either of those searches will be to places that meet our requirments for material and analysis that has been published by a third party and had editorial oversight / a reputation for fact checking.

Some exceptions: Letters to the editor will not be reliable sources (exception to the exception: unless by a noted expert in the appropriate field - i.e. Colin Powell talking about the US military or international relations). And Self published books by vanity presses are not valid sourcs either.

Blogs, forum posts and personal web pages do not have a reputation for fact checking or editorial board oversight and will not be considered reliable sources.

Very simple outline I think. but if you still have questions, feel free to ask. -- The Red Pen of Doom 23:18, 2 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I think you may be misunderstanding primary source. In the case of the particular article where we have been colliding, a primary source is the episode itself. A book about The Family Guy, or an article about The Road To Germany is a secondary source and the kind of sources that should be used most often in Wikipedia articles. However the comments in either the book or the article must be about the specific episode that the article is about. If the book talks about anti-semetic trends in Family Guy episodes, but was published BEFORE the Road to Germany aired, we cannot use that as a reference in the Road to Germany article because the book was not and could not have been referring to that episode and so we would be making that assertion/connection and that would be WP:SYN - taking information that a source wrote about "event A" and saying that it also applies to "event B". -- The Red Pen of Doom 23:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Blocked

edit

After investigating a report at Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Case/PrimeFan, I have come to the conclusion that this account, along with a large number of other accounts, are all being operated by the same person as abusive sockpuppets. Operating multiple accounts is not permitted when they are used to edit the same articles and debates. However, due to the nature of the IP addresses involved, it is possible that some of these users have coincidentally shared a computer or IP address. If this is the case, you may request to be unblocked by emailing the blocking admin or the unblock mailing list with your official University email address. This is to prevent one person from spoofing the admins with multiple free throwaway email accounts such as gmail or yahoomail. (Your email address will not be stored or used other than for verification.) If this is a misunderstanding I apologize in advance, and your account will be unblocked as soon as you provide proof that you are a separate individual. Be advised two checkusers examined this case and agreed on the results.RlevseTalk 03:02, 4 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Here is the article:

Proposed deletion of Grace McKeaney

edit
 

The article Grace McKeaney has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable BLP, unsourced apart from IMDb for over a decade.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
