License tagging for Image:Linda bove.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Linda bove.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:

Hi. Please do not add information on captive animals to this page. See article on Green Iguana in captivity for this data. Thanks. Lycaon 09:01, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Adding information while avoiding copyright violations
[edit]Hi! You're clearly as interested in Poplyfe as I am, since we both were working on the stub article at the same time. Unfortunately, the second edit you made -- adding the info from the NBC web site -- used the exact text from the AGT web site, which is a copyright violation (see WP:COPYVIO). For what it's worth, the other problem with copying chunks of material from a web site of that type is that Wikipedia is supposed to be written from a neutral point of view, while NBC's site is written to promote the group and the show. There likely are some details that would be helpful for you include from that site, such as when the group was founded, but only after putting them into your own words and sticking to factual details. I kept your edit that they placed fourth, though you'll want to go in and add a source as soon as there's a good reliable source to cite for that. Looking forward to seeing the article come together!

- That was a very respectful and polite way to phrase what u said, and i appreciate ur tact. i was simply trying to put out what info i caould, as i dont know much about them. but i was unaware of using that as a copyright, since i have seen it done before. hopefully someone who knows more than me will edit next. additionally, i put in that they came in 4th while watching the results show, and have no idea how to give credit for that. i will keep in mind what u said in the future. thanx! monica — Preceding unsigned comment added by Qtakhisis (talk • contribs) 04:18, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- re: a source for coming in 4th, yes, I realize that at the time there wasn't a source to consult ... truth be told, if I miss part of an AGT episode, I'll go to the article while viewing because I know that within seconds, someone will have updated the standings. :) It's how those updates always happen initially, people just typing what they watched with their own eyes seconds before. All I meant is that you could keep an eye out for a news story the next day (i.e., today) so there would be a citation for it as well. Lawikitejana (talk) 05:43, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Mike Tyson
[edit]Hi. You are correct that Grier Heights is now part of the city of Charlotte, but it wasn't when Jimmy Kirkpatrick (Tyson's father) lived there. Read the article cited to support the material on Kirkpatrick [[1]] it says: "Grier Town, a black suburban community about 2 miles southeast of Charlotte."--Don King's hair (talk) 19:11, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 17
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Cathedral of Saint Patrick (Charlotte, North Carolina), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Dilworth and Michael McInerney (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
