[edit] Krekka

Please don't recreate articles as no more than an oversized photo and a couple of links. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 08:40, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Thanks for uploading Image:8582MATORO.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images (on my talk page) and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, BrokenSegue 00:23, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

sadly just having the image source isn't enough. You must claim the image under one of our copyright tags. What legal argument are you making for the inclusion of the pictures. If you can't find one then, sadly, thepictures will be deleted. You have added, many, many images (I know, I'm busy taggin them all). I think that maybe we don't need all of these images, especially if we are going to be forced to use fairuse. By the way when leaving messages please type I~~~~ to sign your name and date. Who is Crystal Matrix and what should I let him know? This link is Broken 00:48, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
All you did was repeat the same thing you wrote last time. I was asking for some clarification. Also, please sign your messages. This link is Broken 00:55, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
Fine. It's your problem not mine. If you refuse to help verify the legal status of these images then they will just be deleted eventually and you effort will have been wasted. This link is Broken 01:07, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
Oh sorry. That happens some times. I'll ask him about the copyright status of the images. This link is Broken 18:25, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:1152x864Toa lhikan action.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:1152x864Toa lhikan action.gif. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. The image is an orphan too. Please attach it to an article. --Nv8200p 03:38, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvios at Creatures in Bionicle

I've listed about 75% of the images formerly used in the article Creatures in Bionicle as copyright violations on Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2005 September 18. The images were tagged as "copyrighted-free-use", but the website they are from has a very clear statement of "© 2005 The LEGO Group. All rights reserved." --Carnildo 06:17, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

Whoops! I guess I don't know to use the tags right. Could the right tags be put on them? I am pretty new at this, plus the article on the tags was kind of confusing. Matau 19:50, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
Problem is, the only tag that is likely to be appropriate for these images is {{imagevio}}, since they are copyrighted, under a restrictive license ("all rights reserved"), and I don't believe a fair use claim can be made. In short, the images from bionicle.com can't be used on Wikipedia. --Carnildo 20:17, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hello...

Got a quick question...do you have an IM account of any sort? Like MSN, AIM whatever...can you PM me it? Thanks. Bioran23 - To the impossible

[edit] Kuddoni

A tag has been placed on Kiddoni, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
