[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Remote desktop connection icon.PNG

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Remote desktop connection icon.PNG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation 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. AlistairMcMillan 00:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding a fair use rationale. However, note that the fair use template says: "It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of logos..." AlistairMcMillan 18:02, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Astroid

Hello. I noticed you replaced the astroid graphic at Astroid. It looks good, but it has "k=4" in the upper right, and there is no mention of k in the article. Could you please edit that out? Thanks. Doctormatt 20:22, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment, I've made the change! Joelholdsworth 00:41, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for fixing that. Cheers, Doctormatt 17:05, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] {{Copy to Commons}}

Hi, please only add this template to free images. Fair use images and such are not allowed on commons! Thanks, Bryan 22:13, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TeX

Hello. I reverted your edit to Euler's formula because

  • Although TeX looks good when "displayed", it often looks bad on Wikipedia when it's "inline"; either it's too big or it gets misaligned or the like;
  • "sin\," and "cos\," are not correct usage; if TeX is used for them, they should say \sin\, and \cos\,. The preceding backslash not only prevents italicization but also results in proper spacing. Thus:
\sin x\,
versus
sin x\,.
Michael Hardy 16:10, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
You've got a point with the \sin x\, thing. That was just a stupid mistake. I also agree that the inline TeX looks a bit odd in Windows, although it looks absolutely fine in Firefox in Ubuntu. I personally would have opted to have the article syntactically correct, because you don't know how the page will be viewed. I think it might be worth putting in a request for the wiki developers to tweak the inline tex presentation.Joelholdsworth 16:45, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
