[edit] License tagging for Image:Minnehaha creek.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Minnehaha creek.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. 02:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pictures in Minnesota
I noticed you have an interest in taking photos in Minnesota. If you're interested in helping out, there's a category of requested photos (Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Minnesota) that has some requests in it. Some requests are kind of nonsensical (like Minnesota State Highway 57), but in general, if you find any good Minnesota articles that could use a photo, your help would be great.
Also, there's a WikiProject for Minnesota (Wikipedia:WikiProject Minnesota) that has lists of topics and categories related to Minnesota. Check it out, and feel free to sign up if you're interested. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. --Elkman 05:22, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tory and Grant images
The licenses of Image:Torymythbusters.jpg and Image:Grantmythbusters.jpg were invalid. You can't just crop a copyrighted image and release that under the GFDL. Have a look at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and add the appropriate tags, or ask a question at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.--Drat (Talk) 05:45, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a good license for them. The license of the image they were taken from was incorrect anyway. If it goes, these should too.--Drat (Talk) 08:14, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Minnesota meetup
A meetup of Wikipedians in Minnesota is proposed: please stop by the discussion page if interested. Jonathunder 03:39, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Reminder: Meetup October 29, one o'clock, Mall of America. Jonathunder 16:33, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
