Hi. I would like your help with this image's licensing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:J_B_Aristide_AP.jpg Thanks Atavi 19:30, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for checking the license and correcting it. Appreciated!Atavi 08:08, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Logo

Hello, how does one go about getting a logo fit for Wikipedia? I notice that many university pages have logos but the logo for the University of Navarra was deleted by you? - user:ilovespain

Thank you for your message. When you uploaded the logo to WikiCommons, you did not provide any information about its copyright status, except that it is not licensed under GFDL and that you assumed it was a trademark. On July 2, I left a message on your talk page commons:User talk:Ilovespain asking about this. WikiCommons do not accept trademarked logos. Since you did not reply to my questions for 4 weeks, I had the logo deleted. Thuresson 16:31, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 8 August 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Isabella Maria of Bourbon-Parma, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Alphonse Mucha image copyright

Sorry about the copyright, please delete the image. Thank you. Rshu 00:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Wikipedia Signpost -- Interwiki Report

Hi,

It's really great to hear that you've volunteered to write the Report. You can start writing here.

Please feel free to contact me if you need any help or advice.

Best regards,
Kpjas 18:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I really appreciate the Report you've written. I have one comment though. Don't you think that it'd be better to give inline links to sources rather in the footer (this is the usual in journalistic style I think). All the best,
Kpjas 22:10, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Marshall Plan.png

Yes, it is mine. People should be careful to copy the comments when uploading a page to commons. - SimonP 00:48, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thanks for a wonderful report on the Swedish Wikipedia. Would you like to do it again? ForestH2 t/c 03:32, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] US government portraits

Greetings. Back in May, you commented at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images/US government portraits. The issue has lain dormant for over two months, and is still unresolved. I have attempted to summarize the findings of fact, in the hopes of resolving this debate. Your comments here would be welcome. All the best, – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 17:05, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 13:45, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] El Pais Image

Ummm yeah, the image is orphaned because you removed it from the El Pais article to use a Wikicommons image and it was being used in compliance with fair use. [1]--Jersey Devil 22:25, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I placed the image back in the article while keeping the Commons image in the infobox. I understand the usefulness of commons images on Wikipedia in that they are not bound by copyright issues but I think the cover in itself is notable to have in the article because it is the cover directly after the March 11th attacks and El Pais is widely regarded as the newspaper of record of Spain. I would ask that next time should this happen, be it with me or with any other user, that you please tell the user that you removed the image from the article instead of just saying it was "orphaned". Thank you.--Jersey Devil 22:41, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
Actually, next time I'm not going to bother to notify anybody before changing images in articles. Thuresson 09:37, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Fälldin 1980 photo by Björn Roos.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Fälldin 1980 photo by Björn Roos.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Oden 21:35, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. I will leave it to others to decide if this photo can justifiably be kept. Thuresson 00:55, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
