[edit] Baseball pages

Thanks for your support Alex. Cheeers – MusiCitizen 12:41, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

In general baseball cards do not fall under fair use because the copyright is still held by Topps, Fleer, Upper Deck, etc. Posting images of their cards would probably be considered to be in violation of their copyright. Older baseball card from the 1800's early part of the 20th century can sometimes be used as the images have fallen into the public domain because of their age. This is my best understanding of the issue. Also check out this link. No Guru 23:17, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Please remember to use edit summaries. You can see how often you use them here: http://www.math.ucla.edu/~aoleg/wp/rfa/edit_summary.html Happy editing! ςפקιДИτς ☺ ☻ 04:23, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Your question about Topps Cards

I'm not sure there is a tag that covers this situation. For now you should copy and paste the email from Topps into each image description. I also encourage you to raise the topic here - you might get some better, more specific advice. Happy editing. No Guru 02:14, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

The Topps permission is useless to us, because it applies only to Wikipedia, not to any downstream users, or even other Wikimedia projects, such as Wikinews or Wikibooks. That's why we want real licenses like GFDL or CC, not vague permissions. Stan 04:58, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Topps baseball cards images

Hi. I don't believe that this letter provides adequate justification for use of the images of Topps baseball cards on Wikipedia. Though I'm unsure what your original query to the Topps legal staff was, I can only assume that it was not adequetly explained that Wikipedia is licensed under the GFDL and thus cannot use works or images that are not released under a compatible free license, aside from the rare items that can be used under the fair use doctrine of US law. Please retag these images properly in accordance with Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and Wikipedia:Image use policy, or they will have to be deleted. Thank you.--Sean Black (talk) 05:43, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oh Well

Then I guess they gotta be deleted. All I was trying to do was to get examples of these players cards on this site and this is what Topps gave me.Alex 15:08, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] baseball player articles

Hey - nice work on all the baseball player articles. One suggestion - could you include an external links or better yet a references section when you create these articles? It's helpful to know where the information is coming from. Thanks, Mattingly23 21:38, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

There's a need for a fix in the Greg Keagle article. It says he pitched the first no-hitter in Elmira Pioneers history, but there was actually 3 no-hitters pitched by the Pioneers in 1965. There's more about this in the Greg Keagle talk page.--Ando por Fe 17:26, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:HighSchool.gif

An image that you uploaded, Image:HighSchool.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Joel Downs, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. MECU≈talk 02:17, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:JoelDowns.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:JoelDowns.jpg. The image description 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 fair use images 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.

[edit] Major League - Uni lists.

I've moved some of the pages you've created that had "Major Leaguers" to "Major League Baseball players who played for University", capitalising Major League Baseball, and the university name as appropriate.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:AngelopolisTigres.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AngelopolisTigres.jpg. 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.

Hi Alexautographs! I just wanted to thank you for creating articles for first-round Minnesota draft picks that still needed them. It looks great now. Thanks again. RyguyMN 07:26, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:PueblaParrots.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Cade-Gaspar.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Speedy deletion of Soft 'N' Cuddly Men

A tag has been placed on Soft 'N' Cuddly Men requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. --Michael WhiteT·C 21:55, 8 March 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Juan López (baseball)

A tag has been placed on Juan López (baseball), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
