[edit] Guitar Hero II

Hi there. Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Guitar Hero II, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the relevant issues at Talk:Guitar Hero II. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bird drive 200.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Bird drive 200.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles 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 fair use images 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. ed g2s • talk 11:27, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Do You Still Get On GameSpot.com?

I just want to know if you do. Also, are you still bashing the Wii & the 360?Dexter111344 22:51, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I have been going through looking up a bunch of people who get on GS. Thanks for answering.Dexter111344 00:02, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I thought that you were a G-Spot member, but wasn't sure and never asked (McDonaldsguy), ah well, you're banned from Gamespot unfortunately, which sucks, because you made good threads in System Wars (and the no. of smart people dwindles constantly). Well all in all, I'm just stopping by to say hello. I also wish you a great rest of the year too.--Kriptonzz of Gamespot. 00:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:1996NBAFinalsLogo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:1996NBAFinalsLogo.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. BJBot (talk) 23:00, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
