[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Interputnik_logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Interputnik_logo.gif. I notice the image 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 non-free media 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. ShakespeareFan00 22:19, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 23 October 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Granat, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

[edit] Copyright violation in Ancient Celtic music

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ancient Celtic music, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ancient Celtic music is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ancient Celtic music, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Thanks, Acer. I will post a link to my talk to the AFD page of the two that are left. Or you can join in at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Telephone newspaper. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 21:43, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citizendium

I think the "as yet to be clarified" part of Citizendium's license, is the problem. Please do prod Larry Sanger and ask when they will make up their minds which license, and then we can see if it's GFDL compatible. Thanks, Guy (Help!) 17:54, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
