[edit] License tagging for Image:Nicola walker.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Nicola walker.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:11, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Captain David Wood

Hi - I hope this finds you well! I noticed you added a nice article re Captain David Wood. I originated the "Sharkey Ward" article, so appreciate the work. As your new here, a few tips. Normally, we leave out titles in article names - so no Sir, Admiral, OBE or Captain etc; and no Ltd or plc. Hence, the article should nominally be titled "David Wood" - but as I am sure you have noticed, there is already a page at "David Wood" - its what we call a disambiguation page, ie there is more than one person/thing with the same name/tag. You could call the article "David A Wood" (with or without a . after the A). To achieve this, simply go to the article and click on the MOVE tag - then follow the instructions, typing in the new name: everything else forwards automatically. If you need any help, please just ask. Rgds, - Trident13 22:21, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ggmem.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ggmem.jpg. The image description 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.

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.

Hi there Regweb. I've been looking through the Spooks edit history to find victims users that have some knowledge of Spooks. Spooks is currently under peer review], and I would like to get it to GA at least. With little effort I think the article is capable of reaching that level. Even if you have no knowledge of Spooks, some help with copy editing would be much appreciated. The two main sections to be done at the moment are the Critical Response section, which needs some references, and Spooks in popular culture. Any assistance you could provide with creating episode pages would be excellent, though I see it as secondary.Thanks RHB 20:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Nicola walker.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Nicola walker.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.
