License tagging for Image:WinterChill2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:WinterChill2.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:09, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

The article Motorcycle Road Racing Forums has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Twisties Motorcycle Club Logo.png

A tag has been placed on File:Twisties Motorcycle Club Logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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.

Twisties

"Do you enjoy dragging pegs on a twisty road? This club is for you. Want to avoid being part of a rolling road block? This club is for you." Sorry, commercial or non-profit, that is advertising. Advertising is not allowed on Wikipedia - please see WP:SPAM. Apart from that, no notability or significance was shown. Please remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a directory, and see WP:GROUP. And finally, you need to produce reliable independent sources to prove the notability - WP:RS. Peridon (talk) 22:04, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

THIS IS NOT ADVERTISING!!!! IT IS SIMPLY A DESCRIPTION OF A GROUP. WTF?

Note: To answer your question which you asked on the deleted talkpage of Twisties, it appears that both the website for that group and the website for the organization you mentioned [2] founding are owned by the same owner. That would suggest a potential conflict of interest as they do appear to be related to each other. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 22:10, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. The above referenced article will probably be deleted IMHO. The not so nicely worded message above tells you why. In order to have an article about your organization on Wikipedia, you have to show that the world has noticed your organization. You do this by referencing newspaper or tv news stories, books, or reliable websites (not Facebook, Twitter, You tube or blogs). If there aren't any, then your organization is not ready for a Wikipedia article yet. A piece of advice for you from someone who has some experience with nonprofits: Keep a scrapbook, in which you would include the kind of things I mentioned above. you never know when you might need it! (grant writing comes to mind.) Good luck and if I can be of any assistance, message me on my talk page. Gtwfan52 (talk) 22:14, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) If you don't see that that is advertising and not encyclopaedia content, then I feel you are in the wrong place. Wikipedia is free to edit. That doesn't mean no rules. READ THE F(lipping) POLICIES. I would advise you in all seriousness to read them before you post anything more, as you seem disinclined to listen to us. What would you do with someone who turned up to one of your meetings on a Lambretta? Well, what d'you think we're going to do if you go on ignoring our rules?
