[edit] Help has arrived

You wanted some help, here I am! How can I help you? You can ask your questions right here, and I will respond.--Commander Keane 18:59, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great

This page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Say_A_Prayer, has an image uploaded, prayer_single.jpg, three times, the first time I tried it went right to an error page, so I hit the back botton to uplaod it again, however, it did not upload properly since the licensing information does appear, I reads that the image will be removed. How do I delete all three uploaded images, in order to start from scratch?

Well, you did upload three times, but each time it overwrote the previous version - so only one exists.

You don't need to add the licence at the upload time, you can add the licence now if you like. Just hit "edit this page" at the image description page (Image:Prayer single.jpg) and add a licence (maybe {{Albumcover}} is appropriate, I'm not sure).

Alternatively you can get the image deleted. You can place {{db-author}} on the image page and an admin will come along and delete it. Or you could just ask me.--Commander Keane 19:18, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

OK, Commander, this the first I've ever had to do this, so...can you remove the image, please?

I have deleted it. I also removed it's use from Say_A_Prayer.--Commander Keane 19:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Sir. Much appreciated.

[edit] Your edit to Khanoda Albums

Your recent edit to Khanoda Albums (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles.

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Khanoda discography. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! KOS | talk 19:20, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Khanoda feel cover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Khanoda feel cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Khanoda_pub_06.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Khanoda_pub_06.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

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

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

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 16:11, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Sugarpromoback.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Sugar PR RD.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Sugar PR RD.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. - AWeenieMan (talk) 02:48, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:603muv.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:603muv.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 15:06, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Anti vogue cvr.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Anti vogue cvr.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
