Image source problem with Image:La rondine.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:La rondine.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 01:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shell ^babelfish 01:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Vocal register

Actually it is a pretty common assertion. William Vennard, Margaret Greene, and Ralph Appelman, the trinity so to speak of modern vocal pedagogy, all define it in this way. It is also the way in which speech pathologists and voice scientists define vocal registers. I have about a dozen other sources that define it this way, so I wouldn't call it controvercial or fringe by any means. It's also the only approach used across academic disciplines.Nrswanson (talk) 23:34, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:05, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Did you throw away material or did you replace it in appropriate articles?

When you did your "major reorganization" of the Renaissance music article here did you just throw away information people had contributed for years you didn't find appropriate or did you distribute it in other articles? I don't see any edit summary you did. Contact Basemetal here 07:48, 5 February 2014 (UTC) This was a long time ago, but I believe I didn't throw anything away or move anything. I simply reordered the existing text. DrG (talk)

Disambiguation link notification for September 14

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Breaking Up Is Hard To Do (musical), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Calendar Girl, The Diary and My Friend. 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.
