The article Hip-Hop Association has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

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.

From your contribution history, I get the impression that you are close to the subject, a situation that we call WP:Conflict of interest, and the article also bears this out. Editing with a COI is discouraged, among other reasons because the writer is thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to tell the world, rather than what the reader of a general encyclopedia might wish to know. It reads like a CV, going into detail about every last activity, and using marketing/PR adjectives like "award winning, prestigious, innovative... "

One of the important differences between Wikipedia and what I might call "notice-board" sites like Myspace and Facebook is that a Wikipedia article is not "owned" by anyone, not its first author and least of all its subject. It is hard for me to tell you in detail how to rewrite it, beyond saying that it should concentrate on her really notable achievements and should avoid "peacock terms". I think the best plan would be for me to post a message at the WP:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard, which will attract people experienced at cleaning up articles in this sort of situation.

You can reply below here - I will watch this talk page. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 00:13, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I will take another stab at editing the page. Thanks, John.

File permission problem with File:Martha Diaz, October 2012.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Martha Diaz, October 2012.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 are the copyright holder for 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.
