[edit] Thank you

Good job on your edits to the Italy article. The improvements you've made have had a great effect on improving the look and organization of the article. I hope you continue to contribute! Sicilianmandolin 13:41, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ciao Sicialnmandolin

Ti rispondo in italiano: grazie a te dei complimenti :)

PS: nella pagina dell'Italia vorrei togliere l'immagine della Gioconda, solo che una volta ci provai ma il gran comitato yankee mondiale mi impedì di farlo! Tu che ne pensi? Per me si tratta di una foto a sproposito che da un'idea stereotipata dell'Italia (poi la Gioconda sta al Louvre fra l'altro).

[edit] License tagging for Image:Italy FIFA2006 winner.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Italy FIFA2006 winner.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. 13:08, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Portaerei cavour.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Portaerei cavour.jpg. 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.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Italy FIFA2006 winner.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Italy FIFA2006 winner.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. Alx 91 00:22, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Flag of Venice.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Flag of Venice.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:20, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Military of Italy insigna.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Military of Italy insigna.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:11, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Military insignia from WP:MCR

I'm afraid you have the situation exactly backward. Contrary to your assertion, any work of the US Government, including its military, are public domain by a specific provision of US law. This is not generally true in other countries, and where such a provision is lacking -- as in Italian copyright law -- works of a government are protected by copyright just like everything else. Legge 22 aprile 1941, n. 633 (as amended) Art. 67 seems to govern here, but it appears to cover only legislative acts, works related to public safety, and administrative, parliamentary, and judicial procedures (proceedings?) and not, for example, the contents of a government website or symbols of governmental agencies.

But even if that were not the case, you tagged that coat of arms as a fair-use audio recording. The basic information you were given, that the image was mistagged, is perfectly true. And given that your government does in fact own the copyright to its own symbols (absent any information to the contrary, which ought to be publicly available without contacting any high government officials) we do need your fair use assertion to be properly justified. Sorry if that upsets you, but that's the situation under Italian copyright law and international treaties to which both Italy and the US are party. TCC (talk) (contribs) 23:17, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Military_of_Italy_insigna.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 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. CO2 23:44, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Flag_of_Turin.gif

I have tagged Image:Flag_of_Turin.gif as {{orphaned fairuse}}. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. If this image is being used as a link target instead of displayed inline, please add {{not orphan}} to the image description page to prevent it being accidentally marked as orphaned again. CO2 23:49, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Flag_of_Turin.gif

I have tagged Image:Flag_of_Turin.gif as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. CO2 23:49, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

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

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Matteotti.jpg. I noticed that 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 12:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stan (talk) 12:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Politics of Italian regions

I noticed that you worked hard on many articles about Italian regions. You may be intersted to help me with the articles about Italian regions. You could start with the region you like or where you live, taking example from Politics of Veneto and related articles. --Checco (talk) 12:04, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
