A tag has been placed on ], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages.

If you can indicate why Aaron Michael Giddens is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on ]. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read ], particularly item 7 under ]. You might also want to read ]. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion.

*To answer your question, simply because an image exists on Misplaced Pages in some form does not automatically mean that we can use it however we like.

The use of fair use images here is not just a matter of policy, but a matter of law. The ] takes copyright violations quite seriously and has put the ] policy in place in part as a reflection of United States fair use law. Any image which is copyrighted and used here under fair use must adhere to the terms of this policy. | |||

*Since you insist on reverting these removals in violation of Misplaced Pages policy, I am reporting this incident to ]. Another admin will most likely revert your changes and agree with what has been told to you here. --] 19:44, 11 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

Invitation to join the Fifteen Year Society
Dear TrueCRaysball,
I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Fifteen Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Misplaced Pages project for fifteen years or more.
Best regards, Chris Troutman (talk) 18:52, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
How does Facebook know?
Hey man, how are you doing? You just popped up on my Facebook profile's "people you may know" section. I don't think we interacted here for like 15 years, so I was really baffled at how Facebook made that connection (took me a while to realize it was you as well). Anyway, hope you're doing well! See you around.--Atlan (talk) 10:05, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Ecw logo2001.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (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) 17:12, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
