[edit] License tagging for Image:Baekdoosan2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Baekdoosan2.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. 21:04, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright question

You posted the question to Wikipedia talk:Media copyright questions, but it really needed to go on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. I have moved the question and will respond there.

[edit] About your recent edit to Kurtis Stryker

I see that you're complaining about your addition to Stryker's article being removed. You're welcome to put it back if you can meet the following criteria, which are the basic requirements for that should be adhered to for any edits made here:

  1. Find a reliable source. We cannot cite regular joes like you and I talking in a forum thread. You'll notice that much of Stryker's article is properly cited using verifiable references. This is a standard that we at Wikipedia are striving to achieve.
  2. Make sure you're addition is factually correct. For example, your addition stated that the person in Shujinko's ending is definitely Stryker, despite your cited forum source only showing vague speculation from a few people who are attempting to make sense of an incredibly low-resolution and blurry picture (This, incidentally, also constitutes original research). Also, your addition stated that Stryker only appears exclusively in the MK: Unchained version of Shujinko's ending and not in Deception. This is incorrect, though, as it's the exact same picture seen in Shujinko's Deception ending. Your claim (And I only say "your" since you're the one who added this info the article, although I can see clearly from the thread that you did not come up with the idea alone) that this figure did not appear in Deception is based on the ending picture seen at Mortal Kombat Warehouse. However, the picture there is clearly cropped on the sides. I can see the blue glow from where "Stryker" should be just as he is in the Unchained picture. It seems that whoever added the picture to MK Warehouse was quite sloppy in their work. Either way, your addition as it was worded was factually incorrect, and therefore unsuitable for inclusion.

Hello again. You're free to leave a response on this page. I'm not going to keep checking this thread for a reply. As for your remark, I did not reword your statement to be factually correct as, even if I did reword it, the statement would still have no reliable source to back it up (And, again, this would be original research, which is a big no-no). Even the forum link that you gave wouldn't work anymore since it gives conflicting/false information to what the statement would be when edited to be correct. As I said before, regular joes like you and I talking in a forum thread cannot be used as a reference. We simply aren't always correct, and this is a damn perfect example of us not being correct right here. No need to feed misinformation to everyone else because of our mistakes. Find a reliable source to support your claim and you're more than welcome to add the info back into Stryker's article.
Anyway, I noticed that your friend subzero961 decided to take it upon himself to try and brute force this false information into the article. It seems that he was eventually successful in placing the incorrect statement into Stryker's article, but unfortunately, his actions are most definitely warranting of a ban. He violated the three-revert rule by approximately five reverts in less than half an hour (And, consequently, the guy he was in the revert war with also broke this rule). I will refrain from reporting both of them for now (Can't guarantee that another editor won't spot their infractions), but I would suggest you discourage this person from further actions of this kind. It will not be tolerated in the future.
Oh yeah, and before I forget, Stryker does, in fact, appear in the console MK: Deception versions of Shujinko's ending, and here's a picture to verify that: http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/1633/shujinkoendps2go0.jpg . MarphyBlack 00:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Please, please, please leave a response here or at a relevant talk page if you wish to make a comment pertinent to this article. Your edit was not removed. Your addition was moved up one paragraph by another user so as to avoid a one sentence paragraph. This is also a fairly more fitting spot for this piece of info.

[edit] My images

Some seem to have been deleted. All the ones mentioned above are gone and I can't figure out why. - The 4th Snake 18:50, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
