[edit] License tagging for Image:Mirador200109.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mirador200109.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 00:06, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome

Welcome!

Hello, Mockba1 1999, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! 

Please make sure to read the Tutorial, especially the section about links (Wikipedia:Tutorial (Wikipedia links)), as I noticed in an article you created, Jean Rigaud that wou were using HTML style hyperlinks. Equendil 14:41, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Dark Angel Series DVD Packages.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dark Angel Series DVD Packages.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 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. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 21:22, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Ker Guerin Ile d Yey.jpg

Regarding this image, just taking a photograph of some art does not transfer copyright to you. The original painter still holds the copyright. Now, the current copyright law says lifetime of author plus 100 years, meaning this piece of art is copyrighted until 2049. If you have reason to believe the copyright on the art has already expired, please make a note on the image page. Thanks. --Yamla 21:26, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

It would seem the following tag under fair use can apply here (from Wikipedia:Fair use), on condition that resolution is decreased.
{{Art}}—for low resolution images of two dimensional works of art which were made in 1923 or later.

I agree that this would be a reasonable tag, provided of course that the mandatory detailed fair-use rationale is also added. --Yamla 21:54, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image problems

I have also flagged some additional images as missing source or valid licenses. In many cases, it looks like you took the picture but then did not specify this specifically or chose an incorrect license. I'm sorry to be a pest but could you please fix these following images? Thanks. --Yamla 21:29, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Please reread WP:IDP, specifically the bit on fair-use. Just copying and pasting the license text does not count as providing a detailed fair-use rationale for each use of the images. --Yamla 02:27, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Please do not simply remove the notice indicating that you have not yet provided "a detailed fair use rationale for each use" without actually providing such a detailed rationale. Thanks. --Yamla 16:11, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
