[edit] List of rice dishes

Greetings, and welcome to Wikipedia!

As I updated the proposed deletion notice to point out, Rice dishes is already a category... and it has many more items in it than the list does. Categories are generally preferred over lists, because among other things they can be updated by the creator of a new article by simply categorizing the article, while with a list, somebody needs to manually update it every time a new article is added. See WP:CLS for a good discussion of categories vs. lists.

[edit] Images

I got your message. Unfortunately, I'm probably the worst admin to ask about images because I'm almost totally blind, so I don't deal with them much. The main thing I can say is that you have to be very careful when posting an image from another website because many images cannot be used on the Internet since it violates copyright law. Images need to have the proper licensing information and it is preferable that they are in the public domain. Academic Challenger 20:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photos

Copyrighted fair use photos may not be used on userpages. I have removed all the fair use photos from your pages, as that is a violation of United States copyright law. Please ask me a specific question so I can help you, but if you are going to upload anything that is not a picture you took yourself, it is likely it is copyrighted and can't be used here. There are very few exceptions to this rule. pschemp | talk 20:41, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

If you disagree with my actions go to WP:ANI and make a post about it. Any editor can then read what you wrote and reply. pschemp | talk 01:47, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Lui, you should familiarise yourself with fair use rationale. Template:Promophoto is a good starting point. Thanks. - Samsara (talk • contribs) 17:28, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
