Even though I agree with your position in the Pope John Paul II article, the Wikipedia is supposed to be NPOV. Your edits were not neutral. Best wishes, keep editing. --Iusenospace 00:38, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps not, but I didn't appreciate the valuable info I put in being deleted wholesale just because of this. Palefire 02:13, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Tiger

Hi, concerning your remark on Talk:Tiger: the image Tiger.jpg came from commons.wikipedia.org. Wikipedia automatically takes the image from commons if no image exists on en.wikipedia.org. Now someone uploaded the image Tiger.jpg (MaxOS X logo) to en.wikipedia.org and this means that the software now takes the image from en instead of the one from commons. Hope this helps. -- mkrohn 15:57, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC) P.S. not sure how to avoid these situations though

Thanks for clarifying that. Palefire 04:02, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:MTS, Cheboksary.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:MTS, Cheboksary.JPG. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 22:22, 23 March 2006 (UTC)


I'd forgotten to put the GDFL tag on that one. Have now done so. Palefire 00:10, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Commons

Do you know about Wikimedia Commons? This is a special project where we upload our images. They will be available automatically for all other Wikipedia projects, in English, German, Spanish, etc. No need to reupload your image when someone wants to use it in ru.wiki or de.wiki. An added benefit is that your images are sometimes redundant here, because Wikipedia is not an image gallery (see: WP:NOT) and the images should illustrate the text, not the other way.

I just read your comments on Talk:Vologda. Wikimedia Commons is a "quieu" you were talking about. I uploaded dozens images of Moscow and Kostroma to Commons and recommend you the same. --Ghirla -трёп- 14:05, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm afraid no. You should log in and upload each photograph individually. Happy edits, Ghirla -трёп- 13:20, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zebra pictures

I noticed that you commented on the Talk:Zebra page a while back, and I wonder if you might be willing to share your opinion on the last topic on the page. I like my pic better, but the other author likes theirs. What do you think? Lunkwill 06:27, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree, hers is useless. Palefire 14:54, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
