Deletion
Hello Mr R,
Just to let you know that I've just been informed that several (extremely useful and informative) articles on sport (such as FA Premier League 2006-07 goalscorers) that I both update and use for research, have just been needlessly deleted. I am told by the IP editor of this article that a group of objectionable admins are grouping together to purge articles on sport and sports statistics. This is extremely irritating - as a sports journalist such articles are invaluable and easily the best resource of their kind on the web. If Misplaced Pages is intending to make itself less useful, informative and detailed for the sake of it I can't see the point of me continuing to use it or contribute to it. Somebody has taken it to 'deletion review' (which I don't understand) and I wish them luck. If you can help in any way please let me know. I contribute a lot to WP and have donated in the past but now I'm not getting my reward I feel it would be pointless for me to do so again.
I would like to argue for a separate WikiSport section which would solve the argument once and for all.
Thanks for your time and continued effort, Mjefm 15:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages talk:Notability (people)#Regarding notability of Football (soccer) players
Hi, seeing you are interested in football this is an invitation to contribute to this discussion to clarify certain issues about football player notability. I think clearer guidelines are needed to avoid repeated inappropriate nominations for deletion and time consuming discussions. Cheers! StephP 20:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Churchill Brothers logo.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Churchill Brothers logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 04:46, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
