Hi, I moved your Rakata page to Rakata (Star Wars); I'll leave it to you to change your user pages.
Happy New Year.

[edit] Claudian-letters.jpg listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Claudian-letters.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. I added it as it is now obsolete to Image:Claudian letters.svg. You will notice that I instead tagged it {{PD-ineligible}} as I am quite sure this is not eligible for copyright. The reason I believe this to be so, is that the letters themselves are without doubt ineligible for copyright. That means the only possible basis for copyright would be how they are rendered. Even then, the rendering would have to contain substantial modifications or decorations etc. in order to be classified as original. You seem to have drawn the original yourself (or did you use a font?) which (assuming you did) probably would be eligible for copyright, but I didn't use yours as the basis and modified letters from Times New Roman. Therefore I believe the new one is certainly ineligible for copyright. However, if you disagree, please just let me know. Thank you. Рэдхот 15:02, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Will someone please explain why this is being tagged for deletion? An image made by someone using "a font" can easily be copyrighted by that person. Copyright in a font has to do with the encoded TrueType outlines of the font, not in the use made of such a font as here. (I know, I market my own fonts.) There is nothing that needs to be deleted here. Evertype 20:56, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
