Removing AfD template

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Tales of Terror (band). Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead.

Tales of Terror

Good job on the article. And, see, sometimes the system works! (In case you missed it, the request to delete the page was officially denied.)JoelWhy (talk) 20:11, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks sir, I just thought that people should know about them. DustyCoffin (talk) 20:20, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Note that your article Tales of Terror (Tales of Terror album) contains large amounts of original research and non-neutral language; please either provide citations for this content or remove it. Alternately, I will. Ironholds (talk) 16:21, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

it's fine now? DustyCoffin (talk) 21:13, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Can you explain where "The record almost perfectly arrives at the nexus of early '80s hardcore punk and heavy '70s glam, adding a small dollop of 45 Grave or Misfits-style horror imagery. Musical masterpiece, great fast skate/thrash core from California with a manic drunk singer, a unique combination of melodies, power and sloppiness/weirdness." appears in any source, or how it is not simply your own personal opinion? Ironholds (talk) 21:16, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

"The record almost perfectly arrives at the nexus of early '80s hardcore punk and heavy '70s glam, adding a small dollop of 45 Grave or Misfits-style horror imagery." that's from some blog, it's not my opinion, nothing I put on the article is my opinion, what's not cited is from blogs so I guess I'll remove that too. And the "Musical masterpiece, great fast skate/thrash core from California with a manic drunk singer, a unique combination of melodies, power and sloppiness/weirdness." is from that flex discography cite and that's not a blog. DustyCoffin (talk) 21:21, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Gotcha. Well, blogs are not considered reliable sources, usually - and even when they are, you don't phrase things so it sounds like Wikipedia thinks "the record almost perfectly arrives at...". It's "[source] notes that 'the record almost perfectly arrives at...". Ironholds (talk) 21:35, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks to you too, sir. DustyCoffin (talk) 21:52, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

• No problem :). Thanks for being so amenable to tweaking the article! Ironholds (talk) 13:05, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Well now that I think about it, all that unnecessary blah blah made the article look somewhat pretentious, now it's more concrete and direct. DustyCoffin (talk) 21:11, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Non-free images

The project cannot make use of non-free images where a free alternative is available, that runs afoul of WP:NFCC. I have removed the image additions you made to Nirvana, Grunge, and Kurt Cobain. Sorry. Tarc (talk) 00:22, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Oh but seeing the same images in every article is boring and make the articles less complete and objective. What about finding more free images? DustyCoffin (talk) 00:42, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Nirvana and Kurt Cobain

Your addition to Nirvana has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Your excessive misuse of licensing labels is unacceptable. Sir Richardson (talk) 20:03, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

nope, you's are what is unacceptable here, your asses are copyrighted, they are owned by wikipedia, ahaha. um I don't know why in hell you's say it's ok to upload images from flickr that are licensed if then they are gonna be removed, and how is the nirvana logo a copyright violation? I uploaded it based on what other band logos said so why aren't those removed too eh? what happens is that you's can't just not stand to see somebody that doesn't submit to you's, is your ego that big? you's think you's are very important cause "contribute" to this lousy site? well wikipedia's days are counted so find yourselves something else to do. it's just funny to me, you's love to see the same bloody image everywhere, overused so fine whatever.

Star

		For your work on revolution summer bands, I award you this star. --Guerillero | My Talk 22:03, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

August 2012

Your recent editing history at Punk rock shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 15:37, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

I don't think there's a reason to take it there, maybe they think it's funny warring, you just joined and I'm sure more people will too.

There is every reason to take it there. It's called the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle. I undid your edit because you where violating Wikipedia's rules (cf. the warning above) and refusing to discuss the issue, not because i think it's funny. You betcha more people are going to join if you continue trying to force your edit/POV upon the article without any explanation. :P benzband (talk) 15:59, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

It's really cool that you used the talkpage. benzband (talk) 09:15, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is User:DustyCoffin reported by User:Guerillero (Result: ). Thank you. Guerillero | My Talk 23:32, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

And you've been reported there again. Note also a (redundant) explanation on Talk:Grunge, which I'm about to put there. Drmies (talk) 21:22, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

September 2012

Your recent editing history at Grunge shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring, as you did at Grunge. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. De728631 (talk) 21:31, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

• I've blocked you for returning to the edit war upon the expiration of your previous block. When this block expires, please dis cuss the issue on the talk page, or stay away from the article entirely. Mark Arsten (talk) 15:22, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
• I saw your edit summary concerning a copyright violation--it is complete bullshit. Your text says, "...have often been cited as the foundation of the grunge movement, they blended hardcore, psychedelia and rock to form a high-energy sound that influenced fans nationally"; the source says "Often cited as the foundation of the grunge movement, ToT blended hardcore, psychedelia and rock to form an original high-energy sound that had a lasting impact on music fans around the country". That's too close. I'm finding the same stuff in Faith/Void Split, which is mostly your creation, where you are responsible for text like "It is probably one of the earliest examples of a split LP in the punk world and ended up being considered one of the best of its type" (), lifted from "Whatever the reason is it’s probably that one of the earliest examples of a split LP in the punk world ended up being considered one of the best of its type" (). In fact, looking through it, that article is unredeemable: I am going to revert it to its state before you got to it, and delete the history since it contains too many copyright violations.

  If you are indeed incapable or unwilling to recognize copyright violations and why that is a problem, your career here may well be cut short. What these two cases necessitate is a careful perusal of your contributions looking for plagiarism and copyright infringement--and if you persist in this kind of editing, I will block you indefinitely. If you want to avoid that, take these comments seriously: read up at Wikipedia:Copyright violations, Copyright infringement, and [Wikipedia:Plagiarism]], acknowledge that this has happened, and prevent it from happening again. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 18:30, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Faith-Void.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Faith-Void.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:25, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Replaceable fair use File:NirvanaPier481993.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:NirvanaPier481993.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 13:38, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
