Thanks for uploading Image:Thunderheadjpg-28.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 08:08, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to List of Disney Channel Original Movies ([1]]) is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 03:06, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you wish to add those movies, put a source. --Yankeesrj12 (talk) 21:30, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, IMDb is not a reliable source. Members submit data, its not necessarily correct. And when you click on these links that you provide to the movie, they say nothing about the actual release date. What if Disney changed its mind and cancelled the movie? Then wikipedia would be wrong, no? That wouldn't be a very reliable encyclopedia. Either wait until each movie comes out, or provide a concrete source.Grk1011 (talk) 21:40, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, I reverted your edit that added a list of Sullivan County officials to the Blountville article. If you want to describe the government of Sullivan County, add that info to Sullivan County, Tennessee.

Also, I notice that your additions to articles such as Blountville and Sullivan Central High School seem to be based on your personal knowledge, not on published sources. Wikipedia policy requires that content be verifiable via citations to reliable sources. Our personal knowledge is not a reliable source. Please cite sources for the content you add. Unsourced content is subject to deletion. --Orlady (talk) 03:26, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

On my talk page, you replied:

I have edited these pages for 2 years now. My info is accurate and I don't need references from some local newspaper to put it on here. No one has ever had a problem with it before, so don't start one now. Blountville is the county seat the mayor's office is on Main St. the goverment for the county is also considered for the town too.

Well, it's never too late to get acquainted with Wikipedia policy. The very first sentence in Wikipedia:Verifiability (one of the Wikipedia core policies) says: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—that is, whether readers are able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether we think it is true." I placed those "unreferenced" and "citation needed" templates on the Sullivan Central High School article to alert you that the article contains many items of information that are completely unsourced. If you know of sources to add, I suggest that you do so.

Regarding Blountville, Tennessee, see my comments on the article talk page. I realize the information was on the page for a long time before I deleted it. I had viewed that page and edited it several times previously, but it had not registered on me that the article named the mayor of a community with no government of its own. The fact that I and other editors had not corrected this problem earlier does not make the situation right. --Orlady (talk) 11:59, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Contrary to your most recent edit summary, there are real problems with the content you have included in Sullivan Central High School. See my comments on the article talk page. Note: If you persist in asserting that Wikipedia policy does not apply to you or the articles you edit, you may find yourself unwelcome at Wikipedia. --Orlady (talk) 03:35, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits to Sullivan Central High School have the earmarks of an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue to reject invitations to discussion and instead revert all changes to the article with belligerent (i.e., war-like) comments like "stop messing around with all of my edits" and "get over yourself", you may be blocked from editing. Furthermore, be aware that Wikipedia users have been known to propose deletion of school articles such as that one that are filled with trivial details, but do not indicate why this particular school should be considered notable. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Please read the Wikipedia guidelines on verifiability and the other items I linked on the article's talk page; it should not become necessary to elevate this matter to dispute resolution. --Orlady (talk) 17:13, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's no denying that you've poured a lot into the Sullivan Central article. If you would now focus on (1) supplying citations for your information and (2) writing content that is truly appropriate for an encyclopedia and removing content that isn't (note that this isn't a school yearbook or a school website), it can become an article that you and Wikipedia can both be proud of. I've tried to "clean up" some issues with the article. --Orlady (talk) 19:39, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. My edits to Blountville Middle School have nothing to do with you personally, or with me. See Wikipedia "notability" and WP:SCHOOL for background on what makes a school sufficiently notable to have an article. --Orlady (talk) 11:41, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An article that you have been involved in editing, Blountville Middle School, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blountville Middle School. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Orlady (talk) 18:24, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found some sources for the school. Add them if you want to keep the article.

You have been blocked from editing for a short time in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule at Dollywood. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below.

Thanks for uploading File:Northeast State.gif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 09:07, 5 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just for the record, the award for Song of the Year, no matter what award ceremony it is, ALWAYS goes to the composer of said song, NOT the artist or group who performs it, unless that artist or any/all group member(s) wrote or co-wrote the song. Therefore, it is indeed Kimberly Perry who won the CMA Song of the Year award for "If I Die Young" since she is the sole writer of the song. Just because her brothers came up to the stage with her doesn't mean that they won the award, too. 1zackman (talk) 17:12, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:FreedomHall.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 09:06, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:FreedomHall.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. We hope (talk) 20:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Dollywood, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Gaylord and Opryland (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.
