[edit] License tagging for Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Lou Gehrig best 800.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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:Image legality questions. 04:29, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sybil Ludington
Hey, how ya doin? I noticed you added some pics to the Sybil Ludington page, I have a hunch you live in that area. I myself grew up about a quarter-mile from her grave (which is partly why I did some work on the article). How bout you?
Sorry for the delay in responding to your message, but you didn't leave a link and I had to reply to my own talk page. I don't live in the area, but I visit Putnam County once in a while. I like to take pictures in the area. If you visit the articles for Carmel and Patterson, you will see more of my pictures. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anthony22 (talk • contribs)
[edit] Grave images
Hi, thanks for donating the images. I don't think it's really appropriate to add images of family graves to living people, I moved the De Niro one to his father's article Robert De Niro, Sr.. Arniep 00:29, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Travels
You going by the Putname County cemeteries any time soon? --evrik 14:44, 11 July 2006 (UTC) We got a photo of the grave we needed. Thanks for your offer! --evrik 17:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] JFK
Hi, I actually confirmed your info right here on WP, which I should have done before reverting your edit. My only defense is that I saw an unsourced assertion in an article that is a frequent target for vandalism. Subtle vandalisms which add false info to an article are particularly dangerous because they can damage WP's credibility. I already replaced your material; sorry if I caused you any concern : ) Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 01:36, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Conde Nast headstone
Sorry, I disagree; find a photograph of the man, not his headstone. Frankly, it could be any Nast; there's no name on it confirming him. In any case, it's trivial. This isn't a dead site for fans, though I love gravestones and graveyards as much as the next guy. I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before. Frankly, such an image isn't important unless (a) the gravesite is extraordinary and of wide interest (ie architecturally, like the tomb of Warren G. Harding) or (b) it is being used to illustrate the posthumous devotion of fans, ie Oscar Wilde or the lead singer of the Doors.Mowens35 01:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Babe Ruth headstone
I removed the photo of the Babe Ruth headstone from that article for reasons similar to those cited by Mowens35 (above). Frankly, the photo does not add any value to the article: it is not architecturally or stylistically unique and doesn't say anything about Babe Ruth himself. To quote Mowens35: "I really don't think a gravestone pic belongs in an encyclopaedia article, even if you have posted many before." Sorry to be so blunt, Oscar 14:08, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Gravestone Fetish?
Hey Anthony22. I have to agree with Mowens35 and Oscar, all the grave pictures are a bit much. I was looking at the Gate of Heaven Cemetery page because most of my dead family members are buried there and you had added gravestone pictures too all of the famous people listed there. I then checked out what your other contributions were and it seems that you've done this to a lot of people. The point of an article is to talk about what made the person famous and why they are important. A headstone doesn't have to do with their life unless in the words of Mowens35, " A) the gravesite is extraordinary and of wide interest (i.e. architecturally, like the tomb of Warren G. Harding) or B) it is being used to illustrate the posthumous devotion of fans (i.e. Oscar Wilde or the Jim Morrison)" There's no need for pictures of gravestones on people who don't have famous gravesites. It's kinda creepy to have pictures of gravestones on people's pages when there aren't any pictures of them when they were living. I think from now on in the future, you probably shouldn't put up all of those pictures. I can see you live in Westchester and you like to take pictures of other things in Westchester. So why don't you continue to do that instead of taking anymore gravestone pictures. I won't remove the pictures that are already up. But if an Admin came along and saw the pictures, they might remove them because 1) they don't enhance the article or add to the understanding of the person 2) you don't need them for most people 3) It's kinda weird. I hope you understand. Hdog13 04:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Iona Preperatory School
No, I did clean it up. The wording was not neutral at all, and, more importantly, it was copied straight from the school's website. Unless the school relicenses the text on their website under the GFDL, it should be removed anyway. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shanel (talk • contribs) 00:23, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
- The text from the school's website will have to go; it's a copyright violation. But, if you wrote the text about the football team yourself, that can stay. I thought that perhaps it was copied from an offline source or was on the school website at some point in time (as some copyvios are); my apologies.--§hanel 00:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Michael Jordan photo
Please see WP:Fair use. Judging by your edit history you need to familiarize yourself with it. No worries though, I made a lot of mistakes when I first started up as does everybody. Quadzilla99 02:26, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- To clarify, that image is (most likely) copyrighted by the publisher of the book, so the source and copyright need to be identified as such. This would mean it could only be used under a claim of fair use, but as Quadzilla mentioned, there are many restrictions to the use of fair use images. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 02:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Michael_Jordan_202.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Michael_Jordan_202.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Fordham
I've been on the staff and written histories of aspects of Fordham. The address of Fordham for purposes of the postal service, taxes, real estate records, etc., is Fordham Road. The Ram plaque is on the "main drive" in from the Fordham Road gate. The records for all Fordham-related issues are under "fordham Road." The provincial's office was Fordham Road, and the main drive from Fordham Road leads to the front door oif the administration buildings. The entrance picture was originally for Fordham Hospital, now gone (which is where the parking lots now are). The fact that drivers to the school use that lot does not make it the official main entrance.HarvardOxon 02:41, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Peter Revson
Hi Anthony. Thanks for taking the trouble to add the picture of Peter Revson. Unfortunately the copyright for that picture still belongs to the photographer who took it, or possibly the magazine who may have bought the rights from him/her. Scanning the picture in does not constitute creating a new image, but copying an existing one. The GFDL license is therefore not appropriate as the rights to the picture are not yours to release. See Wikipedia:Copyrights#Image_guidelines. 4u1e 07:33, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image tagging
Please correct the license template you have used for all the images that you have scanned. The copyright belongs to the photographer/publisher, not you, so you don't have the rights to release it under GFDL. You have been warned before about this. Please cease uploading new images until your previous uploads have been corrected. If they aren't fixed, the images are subject to deletion. If you have any questions, leave a message for me on my talk page. Thanks and have a good day. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 07:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:01 Patterson grave.JPG
Hi! I was preparing to move Image:01 Patterson grave.JPG to Wikimedia Commons so it can be used on other Wikimedia projects, but there is conflicting license information on the image page. You state that you release it under GFDL, but farther down you also state that you place it in the public domain. You can't do both as the concepts are mutually exclusive. Please remove one or the other of the license tags, and if you feel up to it, you can also move the image to the Commons so other projects can use it. If you don't move it, someone else will get around to it. --Darkwind (talk) 06:18, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Observation: on Flegenheimer headstone image 'talk page'
This image shows small pebels/rocks on the headstone, three on the left (as well as some fallen into the grass) and one on the right. This is a Jewish custom when visiting a gravesite; it suggests more than one person linked to them personally had been to the grave within a year of the photograph's date.

[edit] Floyd Patterson Pic
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Floyd_Patterson#Photograph_of_grave_of_Floyd_Patterson
- Hello, the pic is still there, it is your original, on floyd's talk page you said many things are done wrong on wikipedia? LOL, welcome to the club. I have an account with over 2000 edits(in few months), there is even some talk on my talk page requesting my assistance and to apply for administratorship, i say never, not for any money, dont waste your life here, build your own site. I did not touch that account since April. Way too many people have been suspended here for being somebody they are not, or tried to help. Check wikipedia-watch.org site, will tell you more. But that does not mean you should not correct mistakes. And there are tons of them here. Hopefully some day there will be new wikipedia leadership, i'd do so much to change things here, it's a jungle!
- As far as Floyd goes, he should be remembered as a great champion, we do not have many gentlemen left in boxing these days.
For your info...
- Floyd Patterson who became champion in 1956 at 21 & 10 months, (Patterson was originally trying for a light heavyweight title but after marciano's retirement was moved to heavyweight division with high #5 rating on may 2 1956), boxers like willie pep, bobbo olson and patterson stood for some culture/ a boxer should be a gentleman in and out of ring. IN their lifes they have proven it.
But it goes to show you that Floyd waited for Rocky's retirement, he simply did not want to be moved to the heavyweight division.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:CC Mall Walk.JPG
Thank you for uploading Image:CC Mall Walk.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 23:15, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:New Roc City NR.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:New Roc City NR.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bob Marshall (wilderness activist)
Hi, Anthony, thanks for getting in touch. Your encounter with the camera Nazis sounds like what happened to me when I visited the British Library in London with my digital cam in hand; all I wanted was a picture of the only surviving manuscript of Beowulf, is that so much to ask? They kindly held my camera until I was ready to leave, sheesh.
Anyway, I'm readying Marshall's article for WP:GAN and hopefully WP:FAC, which is kind of a big deal, so that's why I'm particularly anal about things at the moment. The reason why the information about Marshall's burial is mentioned in past tense is so it can match with the rest of the section; to suddenly switch it to "Bob Marshall is buried" is grammatically awkward and incorrect. Although it is interesting and noteworthy that he is buried with the rest of his family, including one sister who eerily died at the same young age as he did, I think it's more important to stick to the established tense and note that he was buried next to his parents; what happened after, in present tense, doesn't exactly fit. I hope you don't mind me reverting back, and I do appreciate the input, but I want only the best for this article and for Marshall's legacy, nitpicky grammar and all. :) Take care and better luck visiting other historic cemeteries, María (habla conmigo) 23:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Ferncliff Cemetery and Aaliyah
I see no problem with Aaliyah being listed, as are the other names of famous persons, but if you started listing all "private rooms" the article would be flooded. Someone that is interested in finding the location can get a list at the office. It is not pertinent where you placed it. Doc ♬ talk 07:42, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
