[edit] Image Tagging Image:Coffey.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Coffey.gif. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, ie in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. 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}}.) See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much.--Wikiacc (talk) 20:13, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] More troublesome images
Image:Sinner6.jpg and Image:Riteous.png also lack source and copyright info Image:Peekaboo.jpg does have a source (after a fashon), but it lacks license information. Please review them and fix the problems if possible, and please avoid uploading images without providing the required information in the future. --Sherool (talk) 02:36, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Red Corner 2
Please do not add commercial links — or links to your own private websites — to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. See the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. --Esprit15d 22:09, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Forsberg2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Forsberg2.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.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Dbc.png
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Dbc.png. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. feydey 01:44, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright tags
Taking a screenshot does not make you the creator/copyright holder of the image. Thus, tagging screenshots from copyrighted movies/tv series with {{GFDL-self}} is a copyright violation. The appropriate tag would be {{tv-screenshot}} or {{film-screenshot}}. Please use these in the future and add a source and copyright notice to the image's discription pages (not just "still taken by me" but something like "Still from the film [film title]. Copyrighted by [copyright holder, usually the studio]"). Thanks. --Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 10:26, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Worst president ever
I have deleted this article as it serves only to disparage its subject. Remember, Wikipedia policy insists on a neutral point of view. Please do not re-create this article. -- Merope Talk 19:39, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
