The reviewer left a short rationale on the draft itself .Did this not help enough? Fiddle Faddle 12:27, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@184.79.6.125: Your draft was a copy of text from pastebin. If you wrote that content originally, you'll have to read our instructions on donating material to use it here. Chris Troutman (talk) 05:47, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Experiencing issues embedding an image as infobox header; weblink to an image is not accepted, while a link to a PC image file appears as text and not image.

Please note: This is an image of independently-released recording packaging, approved by the copyright holder, who appears in the image and is the subject of the article, which was written with his input and consent as a cooperative second party. This is not a major label recording and as such has no corporate copyright holdings or involvement. Additionally, all input to this article was made with the subject's approval and consent.

The system works as designed. Files have to be uploaded to be embedded. New users do not necessarily have the right to upload pictures early in their editing career. In part this is to seek to ensure an understanding of copyright issues. Fiddle Faddle 22:45, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:COPYRIGHTS. Copyright is, generally, vested in the person who took the picture, not the person who appears in the picture unless special contractual circumstances apply. All pictures are someone's copyright. We have very specific rules to protect copyright that must be followed.
Looking at the draft it seems to me that you also need to read WP:MUSIC. So far it appears to me that it will fail to leap this hurdle. Fiddle Faddle 23:00, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
