[edit] Image:Survivalofthefastest.jpg
You claim to be the author of Image:Survivalofthefastest.jpg, but it is used on Survival of the Fastest as the cover art for the album. Is it the cover art? Are you the artist who did the cover art for that album? Do you own the copyright, or does the publisher or is it more complicated than that? What year was the art produced in?
These kinds of questions really need to be answered in order to aid Wikipedia's understanding of the copyright issues surrounding this work. Please feel free to place your answers on the image talk page so that others who have the same concerns can read them. Thank you! -Harmil 13:49, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for responding. Seeing as how you designed the art, but there are two other parties involved (one of which is a band that you're a member of), the PD-self template isn't really appropriate. It's best to say that it's a copyrighted album cover used under fair use provisions, with your note about permission in combination with its use to illustrate the album works for me as an excellent fair use rationale, so that even if your right to use the image was disputed, Wikipedia would have reasonable grounds to fall back on fair use. Thank you again for the image, and happy editing! -Harmil 01:28, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:WitchesBrew.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:WitchesBrew.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands 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. 08:06, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Dancethe.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Dancethe.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 18:09, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
