[edit] Image Tagging for Image:POV.png

Thanks for uploading Image:POV.png. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Note that Wikipedia already has a version of this image (without copyright problems), at Image:Grid illusion.svg. The image is discussed in the article Grid illusion. Note that it is not clear that "persistance of vision" is the cause of this optical illusion, contrary to what you wrote at photoreceptor cell. I have removed that and several other factual errors from what you wrote. (For example, the three types of cones are not sensitive to red, green, and blue. See cone cell.)--Srleffler 07:37, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photoreceptor cell

I have moved the disputed section from Photoreceptor cell to Talk:Photoreceptor cell#Disputed section. Please do not revert this edit, but instead join the discussion on the talk page and help us work out a version that is acceptable to everyone. I have listed my reasons for disputing the section there.--Srleffler 22:47, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Rods and Cones single.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rods and Cones single.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. 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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 04:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
