[edit] Shadowbot

Sorry for the revert, however, we have photobucket links on Shadowbot's blacklist, because they shouldn't be in Wikipedia. If you need to add an image, it is preferred that you upload that image instead of adding an external link to it. Oh, and by the way, it isn't necessary to leave ~~~~ in your edit summaries :) Thanks for telling me about this, though! Shadow1 (talk) 12:53, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh, okay. Thanks for that information. I know how to upload images now, although I'm still having a little bit of trouble with tags and remembering to provide source information, so I won't be using links for images anymore. I'll keep that in mind. I misread the "four tildes" part, which is why I started doing that. You're welcome. KristiRenee 07:54, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Gon (Tekken 3).jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Gon (Tekken 3).jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:05, 18 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ╫ ２５ ^{◀RingADing▶} 12:05, 18 March 2007 (UTC) ╫

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Gon (Tekken 3).jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Gon (Tekken 3).jpg. 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. ╫ ２５ ^{◀RingADing▶} 12:05, 18 March 2007 (UTC) ╫

[edit] User talk page and user page info

Regarding user talk pages, it is best to not delete notices, but instead, to archive them. You will find how to do this here, under "When pages get too long." Your talk page is intended to serve as a place to discuss your contributions. It ends up being a sort of a history of the work you've done and the conflicts you've been in, or the praise you've received. It's alright to archive comments or warnings, but blanking your talk page is not considered appropriate, as it is not actually yours but instead belongs to us all. Please read WP:USERPAGE and WP:TALK. Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages can often be interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil. For this reason, eventually when you desire to keep the "clutter" down on your user talk page, I suggest that you create archives for these messages. I would be happy to assist you in doing just that if you ask me to. You can see a sample of archives (mine) here. As for your user page, most users seem to use it as a place to describe themselves as people and/or editing entities. Many collect links to pages they are working on and/or have been working on. You user page is more "yours," in a way, than anywhere else on wikipedia, but is not intended to serve as a personal webpage either. Once again, read here to learn more about this. -- Kukini ^{hablame aqui} 21:23, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
