Still there?

Hello, Clavecin, I've noticed you haven't made any contributions in a while. I've been working at Wikipedia:Music encyclopedia topics and noticing just how many articles you've started and worked on. I hope you will continue to make your valuable contributions to the music articles here and also hope that the main page error I was responsible for didn't upset you so much that you won't be contributing here anymore.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Innothingwetrust.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Innothingwetrust.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:07, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Reubke

Hello, Clavecin. I noticed that awhile back you requested a recording of the Reubke Sonata from Sesquialtera II. While he does not have this piece in his repertoire, and probably never will, I am currently working on it now. At some point in the next couple of months, it is highly possible that I will record all or part of the Sonata for use on Wikipedia (the last movement at the very least). So while this won't happen right away, and remains dependent on the acquisition of good recording equipment, I just wanted to let you know that the thought has crossed another user's mind.

Motto of the day

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 02:50, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Clavecin! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 4 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 945 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. John Elwes - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. John Webb (composer) - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
3. René Saorgin - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
4. Anthony Pleeth - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Advance warning of GA sweep.

Hi, I was just checking the articles still to be checked on the ongoing sweep reviews of good articles. I've spotted that Trevor Pinnock is among them. The progress of the sweep is rather erratic but I think all the remaining articles will be checked by the middle of the year.

The GA criteria have changed somewhat since the article was passed. My instinct is that whoever checks it may want the lead section expanded. The other thing that struck me is that the text talks about events in 2007 as contemporary. You may want to add some more recent activities with references.

I've also mentioned this at WP:CLASSICAL so they may have a go at. But they are also distracted by the people who want to delete unreferenced BLPs. (See the bot post above.) There are two more classical music articles (Parsifal and Dido and Aeneas) on the hit list and I'm rather more interested in them than in Pinnock. So I might have a go at updating the article eventually but not in the immediate future. Regards--Peter cohen (talk) 02:12, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

I sweeped it just now. Most of my concerns are the same as listed above. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 00:08, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Amy Lamé, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page LGB (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Galant music listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Galant music. Since you had some involvement with the Galant music redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Chris Troutman (talk) 06:43, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Jonathan Manson

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 Jonathan Manson 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 band or musician, 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. 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.
