[edit] Private Gym

Wikipedia is not the place to publish essays arguing anything. --InShaneee 01:12, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Coryeverson.jpeg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Coryeverson.jpeg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. feydey 19:35, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Magazine covers

The licence for magazine covers allows it to be used: "to illustrate the publication of the issue of the magazine in question," it is not to be used just to illustrate the person in a biographical article. feydey 09:15, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Possibly unfree Image:Alexis Ellis 2.jpeg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Alexis Ellis 2.jpeg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 02:41, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Could you please ask for written confirmation from Ms. Ellis to re-license this image under the GFDL (an e-mail will suffice). A general verbal permission does not explicitely allow Wikipedia to distribute a copyrighted image. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 02:59, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Twilsonian.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Twilsonian.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.

Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 15:33, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked for continuing to upload images in violation of Wikipedia's image copyright and fair-use policies and for using false licenses on the images you upload. You are welcome to resume editing once this block expires but any further such violations may result in a permanent block against your account. Placing false licenses on images is a very serious violation. --Yamla 15:33, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

How long will I be blocked for? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bruinpena10 (talk • contribs)

Your block is for 24 hours. That's counting the almost eight hours that you've been blocked so far. --Yamla 23:19, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:StanmcquayII.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:StanmcquayII.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands 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:Media copyright questions. 20:09, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Dwiller.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dwiller.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.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:29, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked for 48 hours. Your first actions back from your prior block was to continue your image copyright and fair-use policy violations. When this block expires, you are not to upload any more images until you have gone back and added the mandatory information to the images you have already uploaded. Wikipedia takes your continued violations very seriously as you are deliberately putting Wikipedia at risk for copyright lawsuits. --Yamla 15:26, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chick

YOu did a nice job editing chick's page. I know he recently married and is expecting a child. Maybe we could add some details about that.Mrsmart 21:56, 13 November 2006 (UTC)


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

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Branandmonica.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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

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. Yamla 21:42, 15 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image:Branandmonica.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Branandmonica.jpg. I notice 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. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 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 any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --Yamla 21:42, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reblocked

Yet again, your first action back from your prior block was to continue blatantly violating Wikipedia's image copyright and fair-use policies. You have been blocked for a week. If this continues, you may be blocked indefinitely from editing the Wikipedia. --Yamla 21:42, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair Use Rationale

You asked: "I can use a magazine cover under fair use, but I have to explain why it is fair use? I guess for now on I am going to mention the article in the magazine, and then state that the magazine is mentioned in the article and the magazine is relevant due to its coverage of the bodybuilder in question when I upload the image. Cool, thanks."

Yes, on an article about that magazine, and if the image is used to comment on that particular issue of the magazine. No if you are using the magazine cover to depict a person. So, if you are using it to illustrate a bodybuilder, this would not be acceptable. --Yamla 22:48, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

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).

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Front image.jpeg

Thanks for uploading Image:Front image.jpeg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] CopyViolations

This is your last warning.
You have now violated Wikipedia's copyright policy, by adding copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, after being told not to do so. Copyright violations are unacceptable and persistent violators will be blocked. Original contributions are welcome, however any further copyright violations may result in your account being blocked. I have removed the information on his murder trial from Bertil Fox. Given the other messages on your talk page you seem to be familiar with wikipedia's copyright policy. --Banana 19:06, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Images can only be fair use, if a proper fair use rationale is provided. Please review the image copyright policy. - Mgm|(talk) 00:48, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:M. Matarazzo.jpeg. 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] Fair use rationale for Image:Biggunsmatarazzo.jpeg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Biggunsmatarazzo.jpeg. 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. ~ Wikihermit 01:24, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Arnclassic.jpg

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Arnclassic.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:09, 8 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

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.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Npc.gif

Thank you for uploading Image:Npc.gif. 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. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. 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.
