Pells manny appears to be copied from History of Stephenson County, Illinois by Addison L. Fulwider. Since the copyright of that book is 1910, it's probably okay to copy, but it's considered appropriate to indicate where you got the material from. In addition, the page should be at Pells Manny. I will move it accordingly. Woogee (talk) 20:16, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on

section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify
their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of

the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Reaper Eternal (talk) 17:54, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply

Using {{

Hey I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that you shouldn't use {{

If a player only played in college at his highest level of competition (i.e. never played professionally in the NBA or overseas), then the appropriate infobox to use is {{

Infobox NCAA Athlete}}. Gracias. Jrcla2 (talk) 21:10, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply

Hi friend

I just bumped into your piece on Rockford Central HS in the New Files queue. I wanted to stop by here to let you know that I think it's an interesting and nice looking page and to thank you for the work you did on it. I see here that you seem to be having copyright issues and otherwise to be running afoul of the Wikipedia apparatus from time to time and I just wanted to offer my services if there are any questions you have about this, that, or the other thing. Keep up the good work! Carrite (talk) 21:47, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Navbox clutter

Please do not add unnecessary templates to each Illinois basketball season's article (e.g. this). The general rule of thumb for templates is to not throw them haphazardly around articles that tangentially relate to the article, especially when the article doesn't appear on them. The only template appropriate for the season articles is {{

Illinois Fighting Illini men's basketball teams}}. Cheers. Jrcla2 (talk) 18:24, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply

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.

Non-free rationale for File:Frank j. Winters basketball coach.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to

non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale
.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Hi - I just removed the category "American basketball players" that you'd added to Dwight Eddleman and I wanted to let you know why. Eddleman was already in the category Basketball players from Illinois and each state category is a sub-category of "American basketball players." The only time "American basketball players" should be used are in cases where a player cannot be connected with one of the state categories (birthplace unknown, born in a foreign country without specific ties to a state, etc.).

I happened into this article on a false lead and stayed to do a bit of cleanup. As noted there in my Edit summary, there's potentially a larger problem with a major citation for the article.

Illinois Fighting Illini football season article

Rhino83166, thanks for your recent edits to expand the early Illinois Fighting Illini football seasons. Please take a look at my edits to 1898 Illinois Fighting Illini football team. You made some formatting errors in the schedule table. In the date fields, the month should be spelled out and the year omitted, as the year is redundant. Also, take care to note away and neutral site games properly.

The roster table you've created here is pretty non-standard. We have templates to standardize the roster tables. Please see 2016 Illinois Fighting Illini football team for an example. Also, we should not have external links in the body of articles like you have been putting at the top of these roster tables.

Finally, please see a discussion I opened up at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football#Fork in college football independents records templates regarding some of the standings templates that you have created. Jweiss11 (talk) 02:11, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Because you've created quite a bit of the Fighting Illini historical articles for the teams, please read this discussion.

By placing a logo that wasn't used during the article's year, you are misguiding the visitors to those pages. Please only place the logo for that year.

Interest in creating another Illini article?

I realized there are only a total of 12 total redlinks for All-American articles in the 1950s (individual consensus teams). One, in 1956, is Bill Ridley of Illinois. Would you be interested in creating it? All players on individual AA teams (except honorable mention) from 1960 on are done. I’d like to finish these up, but would love a little help.

Replaceable fair use File:Portrait of Coach Harry Combes.png

Thanks for uploading File:Portrait of Coach Harry Combes.png. 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
    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. IagoQnsi (talk) 07:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable non-free use File:Fighting Illini coach Elwood Brown.png

Thanks for uploading File:Fighting Illini coach Elwood Brown.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free 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 non-free 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 non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free 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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
