User talk:Hildegarde

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

HI Hildegarde -- your vote hasn't, actually, been invalidated on the VfD page for Cassandra Claire. As per the guide to votes for deletion, one's vote isn't invalidated by being a new user, especially since it's impossible to know if someone was an anonymous user and just got a named acct to vote; it's just taken into account differently in analyzing people's votes. (Since at the moment the vote is unanimous, I don't think it's going to be a big deal.) Take a look at the edit I made to my vote on that page -- standard practice appears to be to disclose one's current status if it might be noted by an admin. After I made that edit, that admin messaged me to say: "No offense was meant by the tag, it's simply standard operating procedure on the VFD page to mark new/anon user edits to make it easier for administrators to sort out votes." So I'd suggest a similar thingy. Tromboneborges 14:35, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Utmstudentcentre.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Utmstudentcentre.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Dethomas 06:57, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
