* All of those are excuses for violating the foundational [[WP:Policy|Policy]] [[WP:No original research|No original research]]. There can be exceptions to policy, but these fig leaves do not remotely approach adequate grounds for that. <br>--[[User:Jerzy|Jerzy]]•[[User talk:Jerzy|t]] 23:12, 12 February 2010 (UTC)<br>

==[[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for deletion]] nomination of [[:List of Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! guests (2005)]]==

<div class="floatleft" style="margin-bottom:0">[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|42px]]</div>An editor has nominated [[List of Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! guests (2005)]] for [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion]]. Opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns.

In light of the fact that, in previous discussion (see above), editors suggested breaking out a list of WWDTM guests in a separate article, those who view and edit this article might want to weigh in on the proposed deletion. (From my point of view, the reasons for proposing deletion are strange. It's especially strange that that article, in particular, is targeted for deletion, while the other eleven years' pages are apparently notable enough to remain. To remove only the year 2005 would leave a hole in the record for no discernible reason.--[[User:HughGRex|HughGRex]] ([[User talk:HughGRex|talk]]) 23:24, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

| <!--IMAGES-->

An image used in this article, [[:File:WaitWait.png|File:WaitWait.png]], has been nominated for speedy deletion for the following reason: ''Wikipedia files with no non-free use rationale as of 1 September 2011''

<!--/IMAGES-->

;What should I do?

''Don't panic''; you should have time to contest the deletion (although please review [[WP:CSD|deletion guidelines]] before doing so). The best way to contest this form of deletion is by posting on the image talk page.

* If the image is [[WP:NFCC|non-free]] then you may need to provide a [[WP:FUR|fair use rationale]]

* If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale, then it cannot be uploaded or used.

* If the image has already been deleted you may want to try [[WP:DRV|Deletion Review]]
