[edit] Image:BobLassiter80s.jpg

Hello, you have tagged this image with {{PD-ineligible}}. However, it is clear that this tag is not proper. It could be used for say, simple chemical structural formulas, but not for photos! Please read Wikipedia:Copyrights and Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. If no proper license will be added in seven days, the image will be re-tagged with {{no source}} and deleted. Please ask on my talk page if you have any questions. Renata 06:41, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Map chinatown dc.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Map chinatown dc.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. 19:07, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image Tagging Image:Map cleveland park.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Map cleveland park.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. feydey 18:26, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DC images

Thanks for uploading all the maps of DC, but you need to cite the copyright info or they'll be deleted. --Awiseman 00:54, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

You have to change the tags so they're listed as public domain - government. It's in the help somewhere, I've never actually done it myself. --Awiseman 15:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
But I created the document as it is; doesn't that make it self-made?--Msclguru 15:47, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
The main thing is the tagging - even if you made an image, there are still bots that come through and zap images that aren't tagged properly. I think this might be a good link Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags. I'm just trying to help you out, as I think the images are useful and I don't want to see them get zapped by some overzealous copyright hound. --Awiseman 18:39, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
See what I mean? --Awiseman 16:21, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maps

Please, please give the source to this "public domain (government) document" You keep referring to. feydey 16:16, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Since You are unable to give source for the Washington, D.C. maps, they will be deleted and I advise You not to upload any without proper sources. See Wikipedia:Maps for Public domain and free map resources. feydey 15:08, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#US-GOV-PD_and_Washington,_D.C. for the answer when it comes. And then please reply if You are going source the images. feydey 19:39, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia_talk:Image_copyright_tags#US-GOV-PD_and_Washington.2C_D.C. they are not. feydey 21:06, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
If Your source map is done by DC government then it is a copyright violation to use it. Then have the maps deleted and look for a free source. That is not good news but it has to be done. This is why I recommended from the start to source the images, to avoid this kind of deletions. Please be sure to use free maps when You modify and upload them, sourcing them help other users to say immediately if they are acceptable. By not doing this You have come to this. Write if You need help on putting the files to deletion (Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion). feydey 21:31, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
