Proposed deletion of The Shepherd's Chapel

The article The Shepherd's Chapel has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no real evidence of notability

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. DGG ( talk ) 04:20, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All of the information posted on the page came from their website. I'm not sure what other information you need other than what's at the website. While I don't believe their philosophy myself, they are out there. If they see your proposal for deletion, they would viamently protest saying that they are the real deal. Please go to their website and and continue to study it to see if what is written is proper. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 13:32, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia works a little differently. We need independent "reliable sources" to verify the material in the article and to show that the subject is "notable". These independent sources would most likely take the form of books or newspaper articles that talk about Shepherd's Chapel and/or its leaders. Please take a look at the page Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources for more detail. --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:30, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Fullerton Flyers Main Logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Fullerton Flyers Main Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 05:56, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 19

Hi. When you recently edited San Rafael Pacifics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Albert Park (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

North American League

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

I am not reporting you per se, only your actions so they can be fixed. In future, you should move the original page to the new name by clicking on move. Once you've moved the content you need to edit the redirect to become the disambiguation page. This way all the edit history for the original page stays with the content.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:KQMS NewsTalk .png

A tag has been placed on File:KQMS NewsTalk .png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

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.

File permission problem with File:Michael Porter WWF Ring Announcer.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Michael Porter WWF Ring Announcer.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. LGA _talk^edits 22:33, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The copyright owner, Mr. Porter, is now deceased. Years prior to his death, he granted me permission to use his photo for promotional and educational purposes, which included his now-defunct website and Wikipedia. The small company that now bears his name is owner of his internet radio show and all photos. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 22:37, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You need to provide a link or details of that permission to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. LGA _talk^edits 23:03, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:KNVN NBC 24 Logo 2004.png)

Thanks for uploading File:KNVN NBC 24 Logo 2004.png. 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 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:26, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ottawa Canadian Football League team

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Ottawa Canadian Football League team a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Also, please wait for the official announcement to change the page titles and request a move. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 20:30, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- This is about as official as you're gonna get: http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=424313

Uh, that says the official announcement is June 8. That's when it'll be official. - BilCat (talk) 20:17, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Figaro's Pizza

Hello NostalgiaBuff97501,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Figaro's Pizza for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Barney the barney barney (talk) 22:03, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia.

Siskiyou County

Greetings, I reverted most of your edit on Siskiyou County, California because that information was already in the article! You added a whole paragraph in history when the information was already present in Politics! I kept your one sentence about Pearl Harbor stopping the movement and kept your anonymous CBS article, but also kept the longer and more detailed citations that were placed there by other editors yesterday.

File:Charlotte Hornets proposed logo 2014.png listed for deletion

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Charlotte Hornets proposed logo 2014.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why it has been listed (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry). Feel free to add your opinion on the matter below the nomination. Thank you. Mosmof (talk) 21:02, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That IS the proposed logo and is being displayed as such. It's only fair to have that up as a way to promote the franchise's upcoming change back to the Hornets. All procedures were followed and speedy deletion will show their fans that Wikipedia doesn't care. Do you want that on your conscience? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 03:12, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, it's a fan-created concept displayed on a fan blog. And it's even more clear on the latest post, which says, "They also mentioned in the press release that the next steps in the process will be deciding what the Mascot, Court, Cheerleaders and logo will look like", meaning nothing on the bringbackthebuzz.wordpress.com should be treated as official, which the "proposed logo" text implies. It's basically unheard of for a corporation to use user-submitted art unless there's a specific logo design concept soliciting submissions.

And it's not Wikipedia's job to promote a corporate entity's marketing push with unofficial fan art. And Wikipedia doesn't care because Wikipedia doesn't care about anything. So yes, we should follow procedures, delete the image and show the fans that Wikipedia doesn't care.

Anyway, you're more than welcome to join the discussion here. Mosmof (talk) 14:37, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of United States Lacrosse League

Hello NostalgiaBuff97501,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged United States Lacrosse League for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Ironholds (talk) 04:09, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I never got a chance to contest the deletion of the original page, which in my humble opinion is unfair. I know the founder and chairman of the league and he gave me exclusive permission to quote from the website. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact him at nick@theusll.com to get verification. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 04:15, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yakima Valley Pippins

Thank you for adding your contributions to the Yakima Valley Pippins. But please add some reference to the page, and do you research because, where you put the words 'are a future collegiate wood bat baseball', is dearly false because the team is current and not a future team. And the infobox template you added is being considered for a merge, thus if it did merge with another infobox it would cause some need for revamp and thus causing us to waste time on something more important. And further more as the West Coast League Wikipedia editor I would appreciate it if you took these under consideration.Defan24 (talk) 20:30, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Yuma Desert Ghosts

Hello, NostalgiaBuff97501. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Yuma Desert Ghosts, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

edit the page
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. JacobiJonesJr (talk) 08:57, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Seattle SuperSonics Main Logo.png

A tag has been placed on File:Seattle SuperSonics Main Logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File source problem with File:KTVU FOX 2 Logo.png

Thank you for uploading File:KTVU FOX 2 Logo.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Proposed deletion of Super Independent Baseball

The article Super Independent Baseball has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Proposed baseball league that never came into existence. No evidence of notability of any sort. Article was previously speedily deleted and was later recreated by a different user without fixing the notability issues. Lacks credible sources.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Arena Football Logo 1987-2002.png

Thank you for uploading File:Arena Football Logo 1987-2002.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Mosmof (talk) 19:44, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Northwest Athletic Conference (junior college)

Hi and thanks for your work on this article. One note regarding your redirect from the old name to the new one: It is usually preferable to rename articles like that using the Move feature (up top-right under the More dropdown). Copying the content into a new article and re-directing the old is not recommended, as it leaves the edit history of the article split over 2 locations. The ability to source all edits from the history is one requirement of the free license we use, so having it all together is always preferred. No harm done, as I've requested a merge of the 2 articles, so this will soon be fixed; I just wanted to leave you a note for future reference, as you'll no doubt find more cases where a page rename is needed. Thanks for all your work! Crow^Caw 20:43, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Non-free logos and crests

Hi NostalgiaBuff97501. Just thought I should let you know that the current standard size for non-free logos and crests is about 400x400 pixels or less. If you upload a larger image, please add a {{non-free reduce}} template at the time you do the upload, and a bot will come along and reduce it for you. Thanks, --Diannaa (talk) 19:48, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good to know. Now how can PNG files be converted to SVG files? I put up these templates

{{SVG|Fair use}} {{SVG}}

so that someone else can make them SVG's. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:53, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NostalgiaBuff97501, I don't think you have kept this in mind... I see you've re-uploaded several football helmets that are way too large for non-free logos. Please add the {{non-free reduce}} template and keep it in mind. Thanks. Corkythehornetfan 17:50, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Arena Football Federation

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Arena Football Federation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or an organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Portland Steel -14.png

A tag has been placed on File:Portland Steel -14.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

License tagging for File:Columbus Destroyers Helmet Logo 2006.png

Thanks for uploading File:Columbus Destroyers Helmet Logo 2006.png. 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.

National Arena League

I've seen the helmets you've designed for the Jacksonville Sharks and Monterrey Steel; as such, I updated the NAL team template to support such helmets being displayed on there...so your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to upload helmet designs for the other NAL teams (Columbus Lions, Corpus Christi Rage, Dayton Wolfpack, Georgia Firebirds, High Country Grizzlies and Lehigh Valley Steelhawks). I trust you are going to do a good job with them just as you've done with the two here (if you need me to send you any files or photos, I will do so). Thank you, Tom Danson (talk) 02:38, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. As soon as some helmet designs show up, I will upload them. Also, is there a chance to update the af2 templates, too? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 08:13, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Lehigh Valley Steelhawks helmet logo is going to be a VERY difficult one to recreate. Here's the link: [2]. If someone else can recreate it using the football helmets I have been uploading, they are more than happy to do so. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 08:52, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is not whether the design is legitimate; it's whether two non-free images which show basically the same logo are needed in the same article.

Speedy deletion nomination of Yuba City Bears

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Yuba City Bears requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Proposed deletion of Sacramento Rush (indoor football)

The article Sacramento Rush (indoor football) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No sources here and no sources found other than their own website (which also says absolutely nothing about the AAL, it says they are independent). Seems highly speculative at this point and the only mention I found for the AAL was another team in Austin, Texas, mentioning that they too are trying to join the AAL with Sac in a Western Division.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Yosemiter (talk) 19:13, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I spoke with the owner of the team and the Rush are going to be in what will be known as the AAL West, a western version of the American Arena League. There is supposed to be more information as it becomes available. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 19:46, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

When and if it does happen (I'm not doubting you, I have seen the rumors as well), then maybe it would be notable. But until something is published, then it is not verifiable and speculative. We do not create pages or even make edits until we have the sources to actually back up the claims. WP:NOTNEWS and WP:OR should also be read for further information on the policies. Yosemiter (talk) 19:52, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New lower level indoor football team pages

Just a heads up, please stop creating pages for indoor teams that do not pass WP:GNG such as the previously mentioned Sacramento Rush and now the Atlanta Havoc. I have seen the rumors too, but the problem is that they are just that – speculation and rumor. We need multiple verifiable sources (not blogs such as Inside the Arena) to prove notability. If the team is announced by the league itself, that would be at least enough to presume notability (as in even if the team does not at the time is assumed that the team will pass GNG, either in the present due to the announcement or in the near future due to actually playing games). Since these teams have basically only stated that they have joined, with absolutely no mention by the official league posts, then we cannot presume anything. Thank you, Yosemiter (talk) 23:31, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Sacramento Rush (women's football)

The article Sacramento Rush (women's football) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I am finding no sources, WP:ROUTINE or otherwise that this team ever played or even existed (it was probably announced and deleted, but I found no evidence they ever played in the WFA). Falls far below the requirements of WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

CIF team helmets

With the new indoor football team template released, every major indoor/arena league (AFL, IFL, CIF, NAL) has a place for team helmets. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to put together helmet images for the CIF teams which don't currently have them (Amarillo Venom, Bismarck Bucks, Dallas Marshals, Duke City Gladiators, Kansas City Phantoms, Omaha Beef, Quad City Steamwheelers, Salina Liberty, Sioux City Bandits, Texas Revolution, Wichita Force). I know you will do an OUTSTANDING job with them just as you've done with the other teams' helmets (and will send over any images you may need to complete them).

Speedy deletion nomination of New United States Football League

Deletion discussion about Johnstown Jackals

Hello, NostalgiaBuff97501,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Johnstown Jackals should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Johnstown Jackals .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Alliance Orlando -1.png

A tag has been placed on File:Alliance Orlando -1.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Creating pages

I know I have mentioned this to you before, but if you are creating pages, you MUST cite some outside references. Not doing so leaves them wide open for deletion such as what has happened in the past. Recreating recently deleted articles without doing so, such as you did with Rochester Kings, is also criteria for a speedy deletion without further discussion (adding WP:GNG-worthy sources prevents the speedy deletion). Second, travel-only teams are notoriously difficult to presume any notability, as if they lack home games, their only coverage will be WP:ROUTINE game coverage from other teams and their own self-published WP:PRIMARY media. I will not nominate Austin Wild or Rochester Kings yet to give you time to work on them, but they need a lot of work to be considered notable. (In my opinion, the Kings might have some sources out there, but it is unlikely the Wild have much outside of a WP:NOTNEWS-style announcement.) Yosemiter (talk) 19:11, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I just posted them and am working on finding references as we speak. Finding outside refences is a VERY difficult task and needs more time. The warnings are jumping the gun a little bit. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 19:12, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It might be worth creating your articles in a draft and then moving over to the main space once the articles have sources. Nice job on the logos and helmets though. Yosemiter (talk) 19:14, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, for better traceability on references/citations (such as for archiving and for bots to fix dead links) please use a citation template such as Template:Cite web. See this edit as an example. Though I should note, that is not a good source. It is a "What's happening" or a "Local events" section from a local news site, and is just a brief promotion for a game that never even took place. It is not announcement of the team paying at HEB and just sort of confirms that the team does actually exist (which we are not questioning).

Please read WP:GNG, WP:WHYN, WP:RS, and especially WP:SELFPUBLISHED about appropriate sourcing. WP:GNG Rule #1 is "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material. Many of these articles are in clear violation of that rule as the only way to have any information on these non-media covered teams is through original research by us, which indicates non-notability. If, as you state, "Finding outside references is a VERY difficult task" for a modern sports team, then I would immediately question if it meets GNG. Yosemiter (talk) 23:47, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Again, please read WP:WHYN and see why New England Cavalry is unacceptable in its current form. I HIGHLY suggest you start using drafts until there are sources for your articles. Yosemiter (talk) 16:46, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also why did you delete the Savannah Coastal Outlaws as an AAL affiliate? They are still listed on the AAL website and the Havoc will supposedly play them this weekend. Yosemiter (talk) 16:46, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update (and just more reason the teams in this league probably don't meet GNG): per this post, the Havoc are now playing another semi-pro team in the Carolina Cowboys instead of the Outlaws. The lack of reliable info on these teams is incredible. Yosemiter (talk) 15:16, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File:Austin Wild.png

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 00:54, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:22, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:55, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Battle Creek Crunch -3.png

A tag has been placed on File:Battle Creek Crunch -3.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Detroit Shock 1998-2001 Logo.png

Thank you for uploading File:Detroit Shock 1998-2001 Logo.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 03:00, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Florida Kings

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Florida Kings, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Yosemiter (talk) 14:01, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Florida Kings

The article Florida Kings has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG with only one local independent source reporting anything, and it is all WP:NOTNEWS-style announcements. With no WP:SUSTAINED coverage due to only playing one away game, which would be a single WP:ROUTINE mention at best, this fails WP:NORG and WP:SPORTS presumptions of notability. Redirect would not be very helpful as the the only thing that links here is the league itself and its nav template, which this would redirect back to the league page.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Nomination of Florida Kings for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Florida Kings is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Florida Kings (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Yosemiter (talk) 22:53, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not surprised. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 07:27, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't be. I told just one month ago (and multiple other times) that creating pages without using multiple, independent, reliable secondary sources is inappropriate. Yet, you continued to do so. Look, I like your helmet images with logo. It does not mean that just because some near-semipro team had a logo and helmet means they merit notability here. As you seem very interested in the subject, maybe you should try another wiki that focuses on football where this would be better appreciated? Yosemiter (talk) 12:35, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen articles with far less references and sources and they were allowed to stay. Why is that? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:58, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Because WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Just because something else is poorly sourced doesn't mean more poorly sourced (or entirely unsourced in some cases) articles should exist. I have been trying to clean up the many low-level football articles (as have other editors with other projects), but I can't get to everything. Sometimes, I find it is just easier to try to prevent in the first place, hence why I have messaged you about your creations on mutliple occasions (I really am trying to be collaborative, I do a lot of cleanup and MOS work on the minor league pages). I am simply just been asking you to excise more reference finding prior to choosing to create these articles.you have yet to convince me that you have read any of the wikilinks I have put in my comments that should thoroughly explain my Why. WP:GNG is very broad, but if you do not immediately find that there are at least two independent media articles from separate media outlets with significant coverage, then there is a good chance the subject should not have an article. Yosemiter (talk) 18:11, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And that's what I do, look feverishly for proof of existence, sources and references. Yet, even if I do that, it doesn't seem to be enough. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 18:13, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:NRV again, proof of existence is not merely enough, it must meet GNG. (Mainly this statement: No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists: The evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest, nor a result of promotional activity or indiscriminate publicity, nor is the topic unsuitable for any other reason. Sources of evidence include recognized peer-reviewed publications, credible and authoritative books, reputable media sources, and other reliable sources generally.) You created this article, the Florida Kings, with only this reference. A reference from what appears to be another wiki, and is therefore not a reliable source. You also created the Kings article in 11 minutes according to your edit history using the baseline template and a generic lead nearly copied from the other wiki page. Sorry, but based on this series of edits, I find it hard to believe you "feverishly" searched for sources and references before moving on to you next set of edits just 13 minutes later. (Is 10 minutes how long it takes to make each image, because looking into it, that seems to be your pace between image uploads. Fayetteville Force Helmet Logo.png was loaded at 07:28, Albany Panthers Helmet Logo.png was loaded at 07:37, Florida Kings Helmet Logo.png was loaded at 07:50, Acadiana Mudbugs Helmet Logo.png at 08:02, etc.) Yosemiter (talk) 18:42, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:KOFY TV 20 San Francisco 2016.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:KOFY TV 20 San Francisco 2016.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Replaceable fair use File:Washington Eagles Helmet Logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:Washington Eagles Helmet Logo.png. 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. Stefan2 (talk) 16:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please attribute or claim media you uploaded or restored: File:Seven Feathers Event Center.jpg

You uploaded or restored , File:Seven Feathers Event Center.jpg, but for various reasons did not add an {{information}} block, or indicate your (user) name on the file description page. Media uploaded to Wikipedia needs information on the SPECIFIC authorship and source of files, to ensure that it complies with copyright laws in various jurisdictions.

If it's entirely your own work:
please include {{own}} in the relevant source field, amend the {{information}} added by a third party, ensuring that your user name (or name you want used for attribution) is clear in the author field, and change the license to an appropriate "self" variant (if such a license is not already used). You should also add an |author= parameter to the license tag, to assist reviews and image patrollers. You can also add |claimed=yes and an |author=to the {{media by uploader}} or {{presumed_self}} tag if it is present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{information}} where appropriate).

If it's not entirely your own work, or the media is based on the work of others:
Please update the source and authorship fields, so that they accurately reflect the source and authors of the original work(s), as well as the derivative you created. You should also not use a "self" license unless the work is entirely you own. Media that is incorrectly claimed as self or {{own}}, will eventually be listed at Files for Discussion or deleted, unless it's full status is entirely clear to other contributors, reviewers and image patrollers. You should also read Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission which details how to confirm any permissions you obtained for works by others that are still in copyright.

Whilst this notification, relates to a single media upload, it would also be appreciated if you could ensure that appropriate attribution exists for other media you uploaded, You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

It's okay to remove or strike messages like this once the concerns have been addressed. :).

An article you recently created, New York Streets, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Proposed deletion of File:Washington Federals helmet 1984.png

The file File:Washington Federals helmet 1984.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Two non-free images of what is essentially the same helmet are not needed per WP:NFCC#3a. The change from the white File:Washington Federals helmet 1983.png to the silver helment doesn't require that the reader see this particular file to be understood, so omitting it from the article would not be detrimental to the reader's understanding per WP:NFCC#8. Moreover, there is not sourced critical commentary related to the change in color anywhere in the article, so the context for non-free use required by NFCC#8 is not provided.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Northern Arena Football

Just a suggestion (one I think I have advised several times to you now), but I would definitely consider making Northern Arena Football a draft instead of an article. It is WP:TOOSOON for it to meet WP:GNG as it has a brief mention, but no significant independent non-blog coverage as of today. We not presume that such a league will get independent media coverage in order to be considered notable. Maybe it was my approach, but you at least now seem open to Drafts per your response to @Discospinster: about the TOOSOON New York Streets. If this league fails to launch (like many others that you created too soon), then we have to have another AfD on your page. All I am asking to start using Drafts and better sources please.

Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster _talk 20:37, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The draft for Northern Arena Football can be removed now. The league has since been renamed Professional Arena Football with two separate divisions, Northern Arena Football and Southern Arena Football. More details to come... NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:52, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You could move the draft to Draft:Professional Arena Football as well. While it might be WP:TOOSOON still for the PAF, it seems like it might (read WP:SPECULATION) meet GNG in the near future, especially if the Roughriders do actually join. Yosemiter (talk) 20:01, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please use better references and citation templates

Hello, another thing I have mentioned before, but please use better references when you create pages, such as Tucson IFL team (not Tucson IFL Team, see MOS:CAPS for why "Team" is not a proper noun here). Facebook, especially self-published posts as they are primary references, or possibly unreliable as they can be deleted (linkrot) and do not necessarily have editorial independence or oversight, and are not sufficient for a new page to meet WP:GNG.

Also, as asked previously, please use a citation template such as Template:Cite web as this helps editors track archives for deadlinks when/if they occur. See my edit here on how to fix the raw link references. It takes the same amount of effort on your part to do this properly the first time and should help prevent linkrot in the future. Thank you, Yosemiter (talk) 12:48, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The reference link templates I do have been the same ones I have always done for years and I had never had any problems. Now there's a problem. Rules change all the time and it's very difficult to keep up. As far as the articles, I do the very best job I can to provide the best and most reliable sources I can to prove that the articles exists. But the Wikipedia rules are just getting too vague and confusing. Meaning nothing is ever good enough. It's getting to the point where I just can't get an article up with the best information, references and sources I can only to have templates posted two minutes after I get it up asking for "reliable" sources. I appreciate people's help to make the article better, which is all I ask for. But enough of the "improvement" templates please. Other talk about "vandalizing" articles. Why are MINE being vandalized? No clear answer. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:47, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify "vandalism" on your articles (by the way, not actually yours), I have never accused you of vandalism. I have simply asked for better references, and Facebook has never been considered a WP:GNG-worthy source for a new article as it is primary. I am not the only one to nominate articles you created for deletion, we just happen to have overlapping editing targets and I am trying to help you from having further articles deleted through cooperation. I have improved many of your articles, I was just hoping for you to keep up, and the tagging was a way so I didn't have to write here all the time. (Also, I did not edit it "two minutes after", it was seven hours. Having a section with content entirely composed of To be published... has never been acceptable in published article, only allowed in Drafts.)

But there is a reason I have asked you to draft some of these subjects first, and that is specifically because the sources are lacking. Have you tried actually using WP:AfC. @Discospinster: has helpfully placed a couple of your most recent articles in Draft status. All you have to do press Submit your draft for review!. It might take up to eight weeks, but you should obtain some constructive feedback from someone other than me (since you seem to dislike me).

But you are correct, Wikipedia standards are continually becoming more defined, less vague, and, therefore, somewhat more restrictive. Yosemiter (talk) 18:10, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Then Wikipedia should stop using the phrase "The Free Encyclopedia", because it is considered by many as "deceptive". And Yosemiter, I never said I didn't like you. The rules just keep getting thrown in my face every time I try and do something good for the site. A majority of people I have talked to even say Wikipedia is "not a reliable source" because apparently there are items in articles they do not agree with or, if it is about them, they just say Wikipedia has "zero credibility". Like for instance, the article I started about the Northern Arena Football league? The owner didn't seem to care if there was an article or not because, as he told me (and others have, too), "Don't waste your time with Wikipedia. They are not accurate."

I guess from now on, if there is something new that I feel would be a great article for Wikipedia, I will leave a suggestion here and let someone else do an article. That way it saves everyone from headaches. Though, I think you DO like the face that I make great football helmets for articles. I'll keep doing that. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 18:46, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To be fair, if its not accurate, it is usually because it was not accurately reported in the media in the first place. Which, in fact, is why the General Notability Guideline exists. If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article, or its opposite would be: if a topic has NOT received received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is NOT presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article. We can only be as reliable as the verifiable references that are published. If the only reliable references are the subject itself, then it is not presumed to be notable.

For indoor football, I think a good generic guideline for new team article creations might be a team joining the AFL, IFL, CIF, and NAL are all likely to receive independent coverage in the media. After that, it is probably a case-by-case basis. The AAL has been hit or miss. The EIF really only had some independent coverage on the New England Bobcats, which received more local coverage than the entire league and they are not even members any more. The Steam meet GNG on their past history and coverage in Savannah, but have not received independent coverage since the move to Statesboro (except perhaps the bankruptcy reports from Savannah). The NAF is just WP:TOOSOON to tell what, if any, coverage it receives.

And I certainly like your helmets and logos (although a brush up on WP:NFCC might help stave off deletions of some of the old logos). I also left almost the entire Tucson team page as you wrote it, just with some standard cleanup and WP:Manual of Style edits. Yosemiter (talk) 19:14, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And as you saw, I left the Cedar Rapids Titans page as it is, even though the franchise no longer uses that name anymore. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 08:32, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, it is probably best to leave it as Titans per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMECHANGES. Yosemiter (talk) 14:01, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Florida Tarpons

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Florida Tarpons a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Yosemiter (talk) 16:19, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop trying to move the page, I contacted an admin with an overwrite authority for assistance to fix the mistake and move the page to your target. Yosemiter (talk) 16:28, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Marion Mambas

The Professional Arena Football league announced a new team this week, the Marion Mambas. They are an expansion team and a charter team in a new league. If you can find any further information other than social media, please look into it. All there is is what is on social media, so I can not make a page. Thank you. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 16:38, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I saw that announcement. You are also correct that unless it is covered in independent media, not social media, that we cannot presume notability for WP:GNG. I have also been tracking the PAF itself for media coverage, still not a single news report, only blogs as of yet. Maybe when the league gets closer to launching, there will be something out there for notability, but nothing is a sure thing yet. Yosemiter (talk) 17:24, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have talked to the owner Gregg Fornario myself directly and he says they are launching. He says once the league gets more teams and becomes stable, perhaps that will help. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:32, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, by "nothing is a sure thing yet", I meant media coverage. (Although, one could also argue that Wikipedia should never attempt to predict the future.) Yosemiter (talk) 17:39, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Tucson Sugar Skulls

Thank you, Yosemiter, for thanking me for recent verification of the article. Now can that tag on the top of the page be removed since there has been verification. Also, can the team colors be added to each header. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 15:53, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A-League (indoor football)

I have logos and helmets for three of the four teams in the new A-League, but have yet to see any references or resources except for websites, Facebooks, Twitters, Instagrams, etc. Will you be able to keep an eye out for any if any pop up? The Lakeland Tarpons are the only team already with an article. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 06:05, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have been, and this is the only one I have found so far, which is unfortunate because the only thing it got right is that it is operated by Tarpons and their no punting rule. The Ocala Panthers are not members, I believe they are one of their affiliated "development" teams that Haines has been writing about on the Tarpons website.

Non-free logos

Hi NostalgiaBuff97501. This is a reminder about some of the rules we have for non-free content. You've spent a lot of time uploading non-free sports logos in particular, and when I read Wikipedia:Files for discussion/2018 October 25#Non-free logos in Chico Heat I see you are unsure about some of the rules or find them confusing. Here's some points to keep in mind:

We only allow one non-free image per article, unless there's a very good reason to include more. We typically have one non-free crest or logo in the infobox, and that's all. We don't include former logos or alternate logos unless there's sourced discussion of them in the body of the article, and non-free images are not permitted in galleries. Each non-free image should be included only once per article.
Non-free images need to be small. The current permitted size is about 300 x 300 pixels. If the image you upload is bigger than that, please add the template {{non-free reduce}} to the file description at the time you upload the file. Then a bot will come along and reduce it for you. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 11:06, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Manatees / Fire Frogs merger

Per the templates you added, it looks like you've proposed merging both Brevard County Manatees & Florida Fire Frogs into one another. Is that correct, or did you intend to propose merging Manatees into the Fire Frogs? If so, Manatees should use {{Merge to}} and Fire Frogs should use {{Merge from}}. NatureBoyMD (talk) 13:23, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there are the same franchise and seem to share history and the separate articles seem to show a connection. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 20:08, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NostalgiaBuff97501, NatureBoyMD is asking which page should be merged into which. Please read Wikipedia:Merging#Proposing a merger as you only did part of Step #2, you never started a discussion on the target talk page (Step #1). When proposing a merger, one should identify a single talk page location to discuss the merger to gain a consensus. In Step #2, by not defining a location in the "discuss=" parameter (they are different on each page right now with the Mantees "Discuss" linking to Talk:Brevard County Manatees and the Fire Frogs' "Discuss" linking to Talk:Florida Fire Frogs)it makes it confusing when trying to find the discussion, or even what your intent of the merger is. Using both with {{Merge from}} is incorrect as at least one of the pages should remain if merged. Hope this helps. Yosemiter (talk) 20:35, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Gulf Coast Pirates (AIF)

The article Gulf Coast Pirates (AIF) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Appears to fail WP:GNG as there are no references applied and none found of significant depth. No hits in a news search, and appear to have been a semi-pro outdoor team the AIF used to fill in some home games for other teams. Per WP:NRV: No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists: The evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest, nor a result of promotional activity or indiscriminate publicity, nor is the topic unsuitable for any other reason. Sources of evidence include recognized peer-reviewed publications, credible and authoritative books, reputable media sources, and other reliable sources generally. There is no evidence this team ever received any sort of independent coverage.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Disputed non-free use rationales

There is a concern that the rationale provided for using the below files may not meet WP:NFCC#8. This might be able to be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page.

— JJMC89 (T·C) 03:17, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What's the concern about the rationale? These are the logos that the AFL has used before. There should be NO disputes. If the current logo can be used, so can the others since they are also owned by the league. There should not be ANY concerns. The policies are WAY too vague.

Proposed deletion of Sacramento Spartans

The article Sacramento Spartans has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG as no sources cover this team in-depth, reliable or unreliable. Article was orphaned for years as an unaffiliated semi-pro unit and only recently received brief mentions that they exist in independent media because they were announced to join a league. See this news search. They have since left that league and there is no presumed notability for unaffiliated semi-pro teams. (Also, as an essentially unwatched and unlinked page, it has had a history of WP:PROMO editing.)

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Proposed deletion of File:West Michigan Ironmen Helmet Logo 2017.png

The file File:West Michigan Ironmen Helmet Logo 2017.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Redundant non-free file which is not needed per WP:NFCC#3a because it provides basically the same encyclopedic information to the reader that File:WestMichiganIronmen.png (also being used in the infobox of the same article) does, The only difference between the two infobox files is that one is of the logo and one is of the logo on a helment. There's nothing unique about the helmet imagery that requires that it be seen per WP:NFCC#8 and nothing about it (e.g. its color) which cannot be described using simple text per WP:FREER. One of the two files is fine, but are not needed. Since the logo is more clearly seen in the logo file, keeping that file makes the most sense.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Deciding to leave

It's seems to me that now public notes are being written about me and what contributions I am making. I do the best I can to give each article accurate and factual information and show sports logos that ARE accurate enough to be placed in the articles. Yet, I am being peppered with stuff like this:

The file "so-and-so" has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free former logo whose use in "such-and-such fails WP:NFCC#8 and WP:NFC#cite_note-4. Non-free former logos may be allowed when the logo itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary about how the logo or team's branding has changed over the years, but they are not really allowed just to show the how the former logo looked.

In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Another good example is when the old logos for the Arena Football League where removed because they "did not comply with guidelines". It's total B.S. because those logos ARE a part of the league's history and it shows it at SportsLogos.net as proof. But that's just not enough, isn't it? Also, I feel like I am being treated like a second-class citizen when I have more knowledge about the stuff I put on here as you do. But you don't want to hear any of it. Then, someone goes and PUBLICLY asks someone for some advice:

"Hi 'so-and-so'. Do you have suggestions on how to try and impress upon NostalgiaBuff97501 that he needs to do a better job of complying with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines, particularly those related to non-free content use. You'll get the general idea just from looking at all of the image-related notifications added to his user talk page over the years, and the sheer number of them makes it seem that he's not really trying to understand why they were added in the first place. His only response seems to be this, or something similar (see Wikipedia:Files for discussion/2018 October 25#Non-free logos in Chico Heat for another example).

Many of his uploads have been deleted for one reason or another, sometimes even via FFD, but he continues to go on upload sport team logos, even occasionally re-uploading a deleted file or files (perhaps unintentionally), without any apparent concern for previous discussions or relevant policies and guidelines. He also continues to upload exceedingly large files despite have been advised to avoid doing this as far back as July 2015 and then again in in 2018 once again. His issues apparently aren't only with logos as can be seen with previously raised concerns needing to be repeated only to receive the same "things are too vague" type of response in return. Perhaps there's a way to avoid this ending up at WP:ANI because he also does seem to make some positive contributions; these, however, are starting to be outweighed (at least in my opinion) by the cleaning up the community often needs to after his edits. I'm beginning to wonder whether the WP:IDHT approach he seems to take every time his edits are questioned is starting to indicate a bit of a WP:CIR problem, particularly with respect to image use."

I saw it and I don't appreciate it! It seems to me like I do what I can to make these article MUCH more accurate and up to date and I have to have proof and resources and follow guidelines which, in my humble opinion, are too vague and hard to understand. Plus, trying to correct things causes me to jump through hoops. It's a joke and I have had enough! So I have made the decision to leave this site because of two reasons, Marchjuly and Yosemiter. I tried to be calm and courteous and keep quiet about everything that has gone on, but I finally had to let off some steam. Being accused of "vandalism" in some articles when I was only trying to help. They are a joke and I hope you open they eyes to see what they are doing. Marchjuly and Yosemiter, if you think you can do a better job than me at what I have done, then YOU go right ahead. Let's see how far you get without my fabulous helmets and unique designs.

"The FREE Encyclopedia"? My ass! Nobody believes that this is an accurate site anyway. You're welcome for everything! Is THAT "vague" enough for you?!? Goodbye, Felicia! And good riddance!!! NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 05:47, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Rio Grande Valley Dorados Helmet 2019.png

The file File:Rio Grande Valley Dorados Helmet 2019.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free image which is not needed per WP:NFCC#3a. There is already a non-free file of the logo (File:Rio Grande Valley Dorados.png) being used for primary identification purposes in the main infobox; so, there's no need for two non-free files which are providing essentially the same information. If the color of the helmet is worth mentioning in the article, it can be sufficiently done so using text per WP:FREER.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:02, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Rio Grande Valley Dorados (2019–)#Fair use rationale for File:Rio Grande Valley Dorados.png

Each time a non-free file like File:Rio Grande Valley Dorados.png is added to an article, a separate, specific non-free use rationale also needs to be added to the file's page explaining how the particular use of the file satisfies all ten non-free content use criteria. This file only has a non-free use rationale for Rio Grande Valley Dorados; so, if you feel that the file's non-free use is also justified in Rio Grande Valley Dorados (2019–), please provide a non-free use rationale explaining why. Non-free files lacking a rationale for a particular use can be flagged for removal per WP:NFCCE and there are WP:BOTs that go about doing this. If the file is removed from "Rio Grande Valley Dorados (2019–)" before a rationale is added, don't panic; just add the missing rationale and then re-add the file to the article. Please try to understand, however, that simply adding a rationale doesn't automatically mean that the non-free use is otherwise policy-compliant. The file's non-free use needs to satisfy all ten non-free content use criteria, and it can still be nominated for discussion at WP:FFD by another editor.

Please also be advised that when you move a file from one article to another or from one place in an article to another location in the same article, the original justification for non-free use may no longer apply. If you change the way a file is being used, you need to update the non-free use rationale accordingly to reflect that new usage. This could be as simple as simply changing the name of the article where the file is now being used or it can mean adding more specific details about how the file is now being used. Logos such as sport team logos are generally OK to upload per item 2 of WP:NFCI when the logo is being used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of an article about the team; other types of non-free uses are much harder to justify. Former logos, in particular, can be hard to justify because the established consensus is that the former logo itself needs to be subject of sourced critical commentary somewhere in the article where it's being used (see WP:NFC#cite_note-4). So, simply moving the former logo to another part of an article like you did at Premier Arena Soccer League is not enough and is the reason why File:PASL Pro Logo.png has been tagged for deletion by a Wikipedia administrator. It's much better to try and find reliable sources which discuss the logo change and then add content about the change with citations to those sources to the article.

Image use on Wikipedia can be tricky, and this is particularly true for non-free files. Some of these policies might seem confusing and that may be actually something worth discussing on the talk pages of the respective policy like WT:IUP or WT:NFCC; these policies and guidelines, however, have been established over the years through community consensus which means we as editors are expected to do our best to try and comply with them. This doesn't mean we won't make mistakes, but it does mean we should try and limit these mistakes as much as possible. I realize you're feeling frustrated by all of the notifications about images and other stuff which have been added to your user talk page over the years, but they were added for a reason. If there's something about a particular notification that you find vague or otherwise disagree with, its perfectly OK to ask for clarification from the person who posted it. Just follow the instructions in the template (there usually are instructions) or post a note below the notification asking for clarification (you can even WP:PING the other editor). Nobody who has added a notification is doing so to try and drive you away from editing, but the repeated posting of the same notifications over and over again is kind of giving off the impression that your not listening and don't care. When an administrator advises you #Non-free logos and crests about the size of the non-free files you're uploading, feels the need to reminds you again three years later at #Non-free logos and you still continue to upload files which are too large per relevant policy like before, it's not really a good sign. The same goes for uploading non-free helmet files which basically provide the same encyclopedic information as the non-free logo files being used in the same articles when previous helmet files have already been deleted. So, if there's something you don't understand about image use in particular, please ask for help at WP:MCQ or WT:NFCC and other editors more familiar with relevant policies and guidelines will try and help. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:06, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I upload these files on purpose to download the different sizes. I ALLOW the bots to reduce the sizes, which I have no problems with. Also, if I have to have my fiels reduces, why are some of the other files uploaded by other people allowed to stay as is? Should I give you some examples? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 08:50, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what other files your referring to so it's hard to say whether they should be reduced. Not all files are licensed the same way, and files which are freely licensed or within the public domain are not subject to the same restrictions as non-free files. However, if you've uploaded a file that was not licensed as "non-free" which was then reduced, then a mistake was probably made. If you can provide a link to that file, I can ask an administrator to take a look at it and restore it to the original size if it really was done in error.

Comparing different files is not always a good thing to do as explained in WP:OTHERIMAGE because not every file is licensed or used the same. This is particularly the case when it comes to non-free files because Wikipedia's non-free content use policy is quite restrictive and the non-free use of one particular file doesn't solely depend upon how other non-free files are being used; it could be that the other non-free files are also being inappropriately used and just have been noticed by anyone yet. Moreover, since files are constantly being uploaded, it's possible you have come across some non-free ones which still need to be reduced. The file could've been tagged for reduction and just hasn't been reduced yet, or simply nobody has noticed it yet. If you find any non-free files like this which haven't been tagged yet, you can help out by adding the template {{Non-free reduce}} to the top of its page to let a bot or human reviewer know about it. You can also add the same template to the top of any files you upload which most likely need to be reduced. If you have any more questions about this or anything other image stuff, feel free to ask. -- Marchjuly (talk) 09:16, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free use of File:PASL Pro Logo.png

Thank you for uploading File:PASL Pro Logo.png. However, there is a concern that the use of the image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. Details of this problem, and which specific criteria that the image may not meet, can be obtained by going to the image description page. If you feel that this image does meet those criteria, please place a note on the image description or talk page explaining why. Do not remove the {{di-fails NFCC}} tag itself.

An administrator will review this file within a few days, and having considered the opinions placed on the image page, may delete it in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion or remove the tag entirely. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — JJMC89 (T·C) 03:09, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

An offer to help

Hi NostalgiaBuff. I see in a thread above that someone discussed the size of your talk page with you. I know it's more T's to cross and i's to dot and just more work. I'd like to offer to you that I can archive this for you and set up your talk page in such a way that it is automatically archived for you, without you having to do anything. There's a bot that can be instructed to do this on your behalf. I can set things up so that the bot will do this for you. An example of this can be see at User talk:Newyorkbrad. On that talk page, which sees a lot more traffic than your talk page here, the bot is automatically archiving any thread that has no traffic within it for 7 days. You don't have to do anything to get the ball rolling on this except to tell me that you would like this done. Hoping to help, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:15, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New WNBA Logo

I know the WNBA said that the new logo won't be used until the 2020 season per their press release, but explain to me why it's all over the place now? Are they going back on their release or what? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 18:05, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

They can use whatever logo they want on their website, but they specifically stated that the new logo will not be in use until the 2020 season. In addition, the File:WNBA Logo 2019.png is not their new logo. It is the league's secondary logo and the main logo is completely different. It would be best to wait for the SVG logo to be updated in the source since all logos should be in SVG format if it is available. In addition, the "SportsLogos.net" website does not always show the correct logo and this applies to the WNBA logo. – Sabbatino (talk) 09:56, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Austin Generals

Hello, NostalgiaBuff97501,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username SportingFlyer and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Austin Generals, for deletion because it meets one of the relevant criterion.The particular issue can be located in the notice, that is now-visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to prevent the deletion:

Edit the page
Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
Click Publish Changes button.

But, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the raised issues. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|SportingFlyer}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

SportingFlyer T·C 21:18, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have found a few articles that I will add as soon as possible. I still have editing to do, but the quick triggers don't give me enough time to get something done. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 22:56, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to "quick triggers", perhaps re-read what I suggested nearly one year ago exactly about creating pages? (By the way, creating pages normally "triggers" a reviewer to look at it. If it does not have sufficient or proper referencing, it can get prodded, which is precisely what @SportingFlyer: was doing when you created a page using only a single primary source.)
