[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Gulbernergencover.jpg)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Gulbernergencover.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. Yamla 22:12, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flemish-Belgian on Hadise

I see you are the one who changed "Flemish version of Pop Idol" into Belgian, and the language she speaks (Dutch) into Flemish. I am reverting for the following reasons: 1) Pop Idol is a TV programme. As there is Flemish TV (in the Dutch language) and Walloon TV (in the French language), there can be no Belgian Pop Idol. Hadise did the Flemish one. 2) language: though it is often called "Flemish" by its own speakers, the official name of the language is "Dutch". Hadise by the way speaks very good Dutch, without any colouring by dialect. She does live in an area where dialect has almost died out and her mother learnt the language in ... Holland, where she worked for several years before her marriage.

Have a nice day!--Pan Gerwazy 19:52, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Hidayet turkoglu.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Hidayet turkoglu.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. Mosmof 23:05, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
