[edit] License tagging for Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.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:Image legality questions. 04:29, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sybil Ludington
Hey, how ya doin? I noticed you added some pics to the Sybil Ludington page, I have a hunch you live in that area. I myself grew up about a quarter-mile from her grave (which is partly why I did some work on the article). How bout you?
Sorry for the delay in responding to your message, but you didn't leave a link and I had to reply to my own talk page. I don't live in the area, but I visit Putnam County once in a while. I like to take pictures in the area. If you visit the articles for Carmel and Patterson, you will see more of my pictures. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anthony22 (talk • contribs).
[edit] Grave images
Hi, thanks for donating the images. I don't think it's really appropriate to add images of family graves to living people, I moved the De Niro one to his father's article Robert De Niro, Sr.. Arniep 00:29, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Travels
You going by the Putname County cemeteries any time soon? --evrik 14:44, 11 July 2006 (UTC) We got a photo of the grave we needed. Thanks for your offer! --evrik 17:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] JFK
Hi, I actually confirmed your info right here on WP, which I should have done before reverting your edit. My only defense is that I saw an unsourced assertion in an article that is a frequent target for vandalism. Subtle vandalisms which add false info to an article are particularly dangerous because they can damage WP's credibility. I already replaced your material; sorry if I caused you any concern : ) Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 01:36, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Conde Nast headstone
Sorry, I disagree; find a photograph of the man, not his headstone. Frankly, it could be any Nast; there's no name on it confirming him. In any case, it's trivial. This isn't a dead site for fans, though I love gravestones and graveyards as much as the next guy. I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before. Frankly, such an image isn't important unless (a) the gravesite is extraordinary and of wide interest (ie architecturally, like the tomb of Warren G. Harding) or (b) it is being used to illustrate the posthumous devotion of fans, ie Oscar Wilde or the lead singer of the Doors.Mowens35 01:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Babe Ruth headstone
I removed the photo of the Babe Ruth headstone from that article for reasons similar to those cited by Mowens35 (above). Frankly, the photo does not add any value to the article: it is not architecturally or stylistically unique and doesn't say anything about Babe Ruth himself. To quote Mowens35: "I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before." Sorry to be so blunt, Oscar 14:08, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Iona Preperatory School
No, I did clean it up. The wording was not neutral at all, and, more importantly, it was copied straight from the school's website. Unless the school relicenses the text on their website under the GFDL, it should be removed anyway. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shanel (talk • contribs) 00:23, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
- The text from the school's website will have to go; it's a copyright violation. But, if you wrote the text about the football team yourself, that can stay. I thought that perhaps it was copied from an offline source or was on the school website at some point in time (as some copyvios are); my apologies.--§hanel 00:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Michael Jordan photo
Please see WP:Fair use. Judging by your edit history you need to familiarize yourself with it. No worries though, I made a lot of mistakes when I first started up as does everybody. Quadzilla99 02:26, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- To clarify, that image is (most likely) copyrighted by the publisher of the book, so the source and copyright need to be identified as such. This would mean it could only be used under a claim of fair use, but as Quadzilla mentioned, there are many restrictions to the use of fair use images. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 02:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Michael_Jordan_202.jpg

If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Fordham
I've been on the staff and written histories of aspects of Fordham. The address of Fordham for purposes of the postal service, taxes, real estate records, etc., is Fordham Road. The Ram plaque is on the "main drive" in from the Fordham Road gate. The records for all Fordham-related issues are under "fordham Road." The provincial's office was Fordham Road, and the main drive from Fordham Road leads to the front door oif the administration buildings. The entrance picture was originally for Fordham Hospital, now gone (which is where the parking lots now are). The fact that drivers to the school use that lot does not make it the official main entrance.HarvardOxon 02:41, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Peter Revson
Hi Anthony. Thanks for taking the trouble to add the picture of Peter Revson. Unfortunately the copyright for that picture still belongs to the photographer who took it, or possibly the magazine who may have bought the rights from him/her. Scanning the picture in does not constitute creating a new image, but copying an existing one. The GFDL license is therefore not appropriate as the rights to the picture are not yours to release. See Wikipedia:Copyrights#Image_guidelines. 4u1e 07:33, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image tagging
Please correct the license template you have used for all the images that you have scanned. The copyright belongs to the photographer/publisher, not you, so you don't have the rights to release it under GFDL. You have been warned before about this. Please cease uploading new images until your previous uploads have been corrected. If they aren't fixed, the images are subject to deletion. If you have any questions, leave a message for me on my talk page. Thanks and have a good day. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 07:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
