Colleen Jones

[edit]

Hi. I noticed you've been working on the article Colleen Jones. I wanted to let you know that the article is currently at Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates but is being opposed due to lack of citations. I figured you might like a chance to do some quick cleanup to get the article listed on ITN. Cheers, MediaKyle (talk) 02:49, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that out. The article is still a work in progress, but I'll see what I can do.-- Earl Andrew - talk 14:16, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Montana's Brier logo.jpg

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Montana's Brier logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — Ирука13 16:29, 31 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW

Howdy. Concerning the 2022 Conservative Party of Canada leadership election infobox. You'll find that a certain editor who keeps re-adding 2026 & a none existent article, won't stop. Their history shows that they're a 'slow burn' with such persistence & with little to no communicating skills. GoodDay (talk) 21:00, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I noticed that myself. If they return, perhaps a block will be in order.-- Earl Andrew - talk 21:40, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

File:Gordon Hudson.png

[edit]

Hi Earl Andrew. You uploaded File:Gordon Hudson.png using a {{PD-URAA}} license but also provided the file with a non-free use rationale. So, you're saying the photo is no longer eligible for copyright protection and has entered into the public domain but also saying the file is still under copyright protection and needs to be treated as such. You can go either way if you want, but you really can't do both at the same time. You seem to have done the same thing with respect to File:Murray Macneill.png too.

If you feel either photo is indeed within the public domain, you should replace the non-free rationale template you used for the file's description with Template:Information. On the other hand, if you feel that the photo is still under copyright protection, you should replace the "PD-URAA" license with an appropriate non-free one. The long the files remain as is, the greater the chance of a WP:BOT noticing the conflict between the licenseing and non-free use rationales, which could cause the files to be removed from whatever pages they're being used on. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:09, 27 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing this out. I've gone and used the Information template. -- Earl Andrew - talk 14:20, 27 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
