Thanks for uploading Image:Lazyj.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}}
. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.
Please specify the copyright information and source 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, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Dakota 23:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Lazy J
There were two problems with the article. One is the copyright issue -- we don't accept text copied from websites (we have no way to know whether the person submitting the text is the copyright holder or not), and all text needs to be licensed appropriately for Wikipedia. The other is that it is not obvious that the subject of the article meets our inclusion guidelines. You might want to double-check that before resubmitting an article.
