[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Minaret-of-Jam.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Minaret-of-Jam.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}}.

Please signify the copyright information 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. Thank you. -SCEhardT 23:22, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pics on the Pella page

David - Thanks for your pics on the Pella page. If you wondered why I reverted the picture credits you added then please take a look at the 'User-created images' section of the Image Use policy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Image_use_policy

To credit your images you should put all the credit information in the image description page when you first upload.


On a personal note: I lived in Jordan for 18 months in 2004-2005 and Pella was one of my very favourite places. Did you by any chance run in to Mr Deeb Hussein who runs the guest house on the hill above Tabqat Fahl?
