Hi Gmauruthi, Welcome to Wikipedia!! You'd find the above links useful and interesting. I've also noticed the edits you made to Subramanian Swamy. For photographs, you also need to mention the source when you first Upload the image on to Wikipedia. Typically, copyrighted images are discouraged - hence all information must be provided so that fair use can be justified and the image can be retained. While the exploits make for interesting reading, others may insist for references and sources as some of these "exploits" are controversial. Also, please try to use the "Show Preview" button more and do not make too many edits within a short space of time, as ppl. looking at the history of the page wd find it difficult to make sense. Most importantly, always use edit summary so that ppl. wd know what exactly has happened at a glance. All the best. Feel free to write to me on User talk:Gurubrahma. --Gurubrahma 09:27, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hi again!!

Just saw ur msg. and thought that I shd give you this tip. Whenever you want to start a new message on a user talkpage, you need to click on the + symbol which starts a new message and then start typing your message. Your message wd automatically be placed at the end of previous messages. A new message shd be at the bottom, not at the top. All the best, --Gurubrahma 17:15, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] general anxiety disorder

Hey, got your message; the example symptoms don't add to a greater understanding of the article, IMO. They make it very unencyclopedic. --CDN99 15:46, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Goundamani.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Goundamani.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 10:26, 31 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image Tagging Image:Goundamani.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Goundamani.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cholmes75 (chit chat) 14:40, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
