I hope you enjoy editing articles on Wikipedia. As always, you can ask me, check out the question page, or place {{helpme}}
on your talk page for me or somebody else to help you. Have fun! Ac-dcfreak785 02:30, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Hooverdambypass.jpg listed for deletion
If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it, but use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.
If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.
If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. — Saxifrage ✎ 06:42, 14 November 2006 (UTC)- It looks like someone else has taken care of it! Anything produced by the US Federal government is released into the public domain. When you said "with permission" in the upload form, Wikipedia took this to mean that permission was being given to only Wikipedia and that's why it showed up on my list of problem images. (FYI, since Wikipedia material is used outside Wikipedia, when only Wikipedia has permission to use something it causes headaches for us and other people who use our stuff. That's why "with permission" is generally a problem.) Thanks for the image! — Saxifrage ✎ 21:47, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use images in user space
Hello. It might be a good idea to remove the copyrighted album and dvd covers from your user page, since fair use images should not be used in the user space according to Wikipedia:Fair use criteria #9. Thanks. Khatru2 08:10, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
done! thanks for the info! Jailbreaker22 20:24, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Do not delete template request
Unfortunately, this can not be carried out. The policy is that an author requesting a page not be deleted does not automatically stop deletion, and creating a template saying otherwise will not circumvent it. If you think it is a good idea, you should discuss it at Wikipedia talk:Deletion policy first, andestablish a consensus that such a thing should be made. If the policy is changed, the template can be made. -Amarkov blahedits 02:05, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- There is one exception: If a page is nominated for speedy deletion, the author may place a {{hangon}} tag on the article and explain their rationale for non-deletion on the talk page. This does not guarantee an admin will not delete your article if they believe it qualifies under the criteria for speedy deletion. Don't try to use a template, but you can post a message on the talk page explaining your reason for keeping, and asking to contest any proposed speedy deletion and take the decision to articles for deletion for a full hearing. Ideally though, if you find a lot of articles you make get deleted, perhaps you should review what Wikipedia is not before creating more. --Dgies 07:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
What page is it that you've created twice? I'd be happy to take a look at it and tell you why it may have been deleted. EVula // talk // ☯ // 15:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Acdctntcover.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Acdctntcover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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.

[edit] Well done
Just thought I'd say great work in getting permission for that AC/DC line-up picture. Well done! ĤĶ51→Łalk 18:28, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
no problem! that's why i'm here! Jailbreaker22 17:03, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] RE: problems
I think the problem was that there wasn't any proof you had permission for it. I'm sure there would be no problems if you perhaps provided proof that you did in fact gain permission to release it into the public domain? How did you gain permission to use it? Best of luck to you. ĤĶ51→Łalk 20:40, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
