[edit] Limerick Golf Club - Copyvio issues
Hi. And Welcome. The Limerick Golf Club article appears to be entirely "copied and pasted" from http://www.limerickgolfclub.ie/about.htm. This is wholly inappropriate under WP:COPYVIO. If you can rework the article so that it represents more original content, then please do so immediately. Otherwise I'll have to flag it with Template:Copyvio. And it could very easily be deleted. Sorry. Guliolopez (talk) 15:17, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
I am the Webmaster for Limerick Golf Club and wrote all of the content for the site, so the text is entirely original. Is this acceptable?--Corcs999 (talk) 15:21, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Not that I don't believe you, but do you have anything substantiating to back this up? I should also note that you might want to read WP:COI, and point out that - if you have created this article to either promote the club or the website - you should also read WP:ADVERT. Finally, if indeed you did write the original content (and again, I'm not challenging that you did/didn't), then you should probably read WP:GFDL which is the license under which Wikipedia content is governed. I suggest this because you might want to be sure that the terms of this license are compatible with what you expect for the content published on the LGC.ie website. Cheers.

- If you send an email to webmaster@limerickgolfclub.ie then you will get a reply from me, which would substantiate my claim (if you wish to go to that trouble). The intention of the article is not to promote or advertise anything, merely to provide information on the club. I will read the documents that you suggest. I can certainly change the text so that it reads differently from the Website, but I don't see the point in this. I would intend to add to both over time.--Corcs999 (talk) 15:46, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
RE: Crest. Are you really sure you want to release the Club Crest under CC3.0? You do know that that license means someone could (if they wanted to) "adapt" the crest into some other form? Surely a "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs License" would be better? Surely the club would want to retain more rights to such an important symbol than simply "Attrib"? Beyond that, do you own the rights to release the crest under such a license? Guliolopez (talk) 13:30, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:LibertyStone.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:LibertyStone.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes 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 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:LibertyStone.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:LibertyStone.JPG. The copy called Image:LibertyStone.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.
This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot (talk) 09:44, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Cranberries ticket.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Cranberries ticket.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. Sdrtirs (talk) 19:03, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
