Fair use rationale for Image:Black Reign.JPG
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Black Reign.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Black Reign.JPG)
editThanks for uploading Image:Black Reign.JPG. 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. BetacommandBot 01:47, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

editThank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary for your edits. Thank you. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:42, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Welcome
editWelcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect intellectual property rights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced to multiple reliable sources.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.
The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to David Johnson (tight end), is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. –túrianpatois 02:39, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
November 2009
editWelcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add content (particularly if you change facts and figures) , as you have to the article Turning Point (2009), please cite a reliable source for the content you're adding or changing. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. TJ Spyke 21:24, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Jonathan Palmer (American football), was deemed unnecessary and has been undone.

September 2010
editThank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Sean McHugh. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 05:03, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Username issue
editWelcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (Gook14) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it could be considered offensive (see Gook). If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Let me know if you have any questions. Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 06:00, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
My last name is Guckert. Pronounced Gook-ert. It is in no way meant to be offensive. And I barely ever hear Gook used as a derogatory term anymore.
- Okay. I only bring this up because someone listed you at Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention. I don't think it's really a problem, especially since it's based on your actual name. By the way, you can sign your posts on talk pages by ending them with ~~~~. Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 06:28, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Ok thanks Gook14 (talk) 06:31, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

This is my nick name based on my last name and is not intended to be a slur Gook14 (talk) 22:12, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the response. May I suggest a different spelling or adding your first initial to the beginning. Otherwise, we can post to Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names for other alternatives.—Bagumba (talk) 23:04, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
I would prefer to keep my name if possible. If you look at earlier in my talk, you will see that this issue has been resolved before.Gook14 (talk) 16:38, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
- I agree with the previous discussion that the name is in good-faith and you make stellar contributions to WP. However, I still find "gook" offensive based on its common use as a slur. Merrian-Webster lists no other usage aside from the offensive one. Since it is anyhow not the actual spelling of your name, would you consider a different phoenetic spelling such as "guke" or "guuk" or "gewk".—Bagumba (talk) 17:32, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
Ok could I change it to Guck14 then? Gook14 (talk) 18:14, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
- I'd support it. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 18:41, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Willie Wilson.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Willie Wilson.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nick—Contact/Contribs 18:26, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Gilmore as absent versus not-invited
editHmmm, you might be right. I interpreted the phrase "missed the cutoff" to mean that he replied to the invite after the Friday deadline, and was thus disqualified on a technicality (Huckabee similarly did not respond before the deadline nor even respond at all -- Trump responded but declined to participate for a variety of reasons I added later). But I might be wrong, maybe "missed the cutoff" means that Gilmore was not invited, because he didn't have staffers in the required number of states, or something like that. I will see if I can dig up a source which gives more details about why Gilmore is not appearing. 75.108.94.227 (talk) 19:45, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
- Ah, here we go.[1] "...Jim Gilmore entered the race too late to qualify for the forum." So rather than "a"==invited-but-absent like I originally thought, and rather than "n"==not-invited as you interpreted the source, it looks like Gilmore should really be marked as "o"==exploring-but-not-yet-a-declared-candidate, if I understand the color-categories correctly. Does that sound right? 75.108.94.227 (talk) 21:05, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
I still think it should be N, because he has declared to run, he just didn't do so early enough to get into the forum. Another way of interpreting it is that to qualify, candidates had to have been officially declared by (X) date, and Gilmore didn't meet that criteria, so he wasn't invited. Guck14 (talk) 22:40, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's definitely confusing, because talking about the past is hard in English, partly, but mostly because we aren't being given enough details from the sources. One says he missed the cutoff, one says that he entered the race to late to qualify for the forum, and the third one says Gilmore did not announce his candidacy early enough to be included. That last one seemed pretty unambiguous to me... that he was still exploring and thus "o" ... but reasonably people can differ even on that third one, and I can see where you're coming from when you think that the "to be included" portion at the end can easily be taken to mean "to be INVITED". :-) Maybe more sources will turn up, or maybe the ambiguity about Gilmore will not much matter in a hundred years. I expect that the true answer is both: he was still exploring at the time, and thus he was not invited. So wikipedia can say "N", or can say "o", and either one is close enough to WP:THETRUTH. Anyways, thanks for talking it over with me, see you later. 75.108.94.227 (talk) 01:32, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Preseason jersey number rules
editPlease understand that 2 players on the same side of the ball can’t have the same number during the preseason, according to NFL regulations. Injuries are no exceptions, because usually when they come off IR, they usually switch their number unless the other player who took that player’s number got waived, traded, or retired.

editHello, I'm Daniel Quinlan. Your recent edit to the page Arthur Smith (American football, born 1982) appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so it has been removed for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:12, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
