I saw your changes and immediately thought I'd been scooped again. Then I clicked through and saw that you incorporated my images... Good work. -- DanielPenfield (talk) 06:48, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

-- I was actually quite surprised they weren't being used! Why did you take them and not use them in the article? Fortunate4now (talk) 07:04, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Use of Image:French connection statue.JPG

Image:French connection statue.JPG is not properly licensed. You only own the photographic copyright. You do not own the copyright for the sculptural work of art. Reproductions of it are subject to the copyright of the artist and are subject to WP:NFCC. The file should be removed from commons. Then you should license it on WP under {{Photo of art|{{self|cc-zero}}||{{Non-free 3D art}}}} It should not be in any other articles than the French Connection statue that you should create. You should make an article like Michael Jordan statue.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:24, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of 250 Delaware Avenue

The article 250 Delaware Avenue has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unremarkable building

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TheLongTone (talk) 18:25, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

It was a PROD rather than a speedy, which did give you a week to work on the article & make some clim for notability. As the article stands, it's just another building.TheLongTone (talk) 19:06, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

• You should get a life. Every building is "Just another building". I'm not sure what a "Clim for notability" is, but certainly some would claim some structures are more notable than others and thus it's a matter of opinion. This building will serve as the headquarters for a multinational billion dollar company. I hope your not going to be stalking me all week..Fortunate4now (talk) 19:12, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

There is no need to be offensive. You should read the guidelines on notability, incidentally: the fact that a large corporation occupies the building does not make it notable. As for stalking you. I have better things ro do but if no plausible claim of notability appears I may well nominate the article for deletion. And not every building is 'just another building' Chartres catherdral isn't, nor is the Guggenheim, but the world is full of dull po-mo boxes. This sounds like one.TheLongTone (talk) 19:17, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
