[edit] Image Tagging Image:Alankfir.jpg
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Alankfir.jpg. 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. --Hetar 06:36, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Maintenance tag removal
Hello! While you may have misunderstood the purpose of the ad cleanup tag on The Walden School, please note that it is not to state that any information may be fabricated. Rather, while all information appears true, it is presented in a way that looks more like ad copy then an encyclopedia article. The cleanup tag will call attention to experienced editors who will help rework the article into an encyclopedic tone. Please do not remove maintenance tags without addressing the concerns expressed. Thanks! Seraphimblade Talk to me Please review me! 05:28, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
