[edit] American Filmmakers

I thought you would like to know that I've submitted the category to Categories for deletion for either a rename or merge. Caerwine 14:03, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Comma before LoPbN dates?

Hi, and thanks for your contribs on List of people by name-tree pages!

You may be interested something that's been diffidently discussed for over a year, but hasn't gotten any attention since i asked for opinions on resolving it about 6 months ago. I've put a lot of commas between the link to the subject's bio and their parenthesized dates of birth &/or death, since that has been the predominant approach for a long time, but my cautiousness about a change has been the strongest opinion for it that i've heard for a while before, and since then.

Earlier this week, i announced my intention to eliminate the comma before (but not the one after) the dates, come the new year; that too has brought no response.

Your interest in the pages suggests you're among those whose continued silence should justify my confidence in that move, so i hope you'll speak up at Talk:List of people by name#Commas if you've got enough of an opinion to bother commenting on it.
--Jerzy•t 22:21, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hey there

I haven't heard any more info on Wikipeople, it seems like the discussion is on hiatus. For finding information on more obscure people I use ancestry.com and rely on asking living family members questions. I enjoy writing biographies on ordinary people. I always thought it was a shame for someone to day and only have a paragraph in a funeral notice. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 03:56, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "St." on LoPbN

_ _ Thanks for your obviously careful reading of several LoPbN pages, and please accept my regrets for reverting your edit of List of people by name: St, which conformed perfectly. After reverting you, i re-read the instructions there, and recognized my own voice, telling editors to put names on that page that claimed it would never have names! It doesn't seem anyone changed what i orginal wrote, capturing my voice. I didn't waste a lot of time looking at the sequence of things, but i think i wrote all of that long before either having "Index-only page" as a formally separate concept from what i'm starting to call "people pages", and before i'd arrived at the concept of separate pages for some units like "St." and "De" that are followed by a space and more surname.
_ _ I reverted my reversion, made a series of repairs, and one of them was cleaning up the mess i was responsible for on St, with a summary that i hope suggests the real situation: i made a bad design decision, and forgot abt it once i arrived at the right approach. Thanks for being careful enuf that i got alerted to the need to harmonie it all!

[edit] As Fast As

Hey. I added a band infobox and made the exisiting tables into "prettytables" in the article As Fast As. Like it? Shardsofmetal ^{[ Talk | Contribs ]} 19:25, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry

Deyyaz, sorry for putting the wrong information on your talk page about that image even you did not upload it. I think by mistake i have sent you previouly copied link because i may not have been able to copy new link which belongs to uploaded image by you, sorry for inconvenience. In the begining all newbies make mistake, so there is no need to feel guilty. Please add appropriate tags to the images followed by removing these no source and no sopyright information tags to make avoid deletion to the images. Regards Shyam ^(T/C) 20:45, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Betheda Edmonds v. Beth Edmonds

Hi there. It seems that we have both created articles on the same person. I definitely believe that a merge is in order. And since the Beth Edmonds article seems more extensive, I believe that a redirect from Betheda Edmonds to Beth Edmonds seems in order. Your thoughts?--Thomas.macmillan 15:29, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vrba article

Hi Deyyaz. You asked last month if the Rudolf Vrba article was going to be nominated for Feature Article status. It has now been nominated, and you can find the discussion here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Rudolf_Vrba 00:46, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] copyvio

Damn, good spot on that article. I wasnt paying attention. Thanks for noting it for me!! --Errant Tmorton166^(Talk)(Review me) 18:54, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately it has to stay like that. After 5 days (I think) one of the copyvio admins will get round to checking it and probably realise the same as you did. THen the article gets restored. --Errant Tmorton166^(Talk)(Review me) 08:17, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your to do list

You have Thomas McDonagh listed as a to do item but I found the main article, so have created a redirect to here. Yours is the last linked page to a different spelling. Saves you some work!! Cheers ww2censor 16:34, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image request

You placed a request for an image of the sker house, is this what you're looking for?

sker house. --Inahet 00:30, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Seems I made a mistake, I thought I was browsing through the creative commons, I guess I wasn't. --Inahet 00:34, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Firefox logo.png at Commons

The public domain version of the Firefox logo I uploaded at commons is up for deletion. Please feel free to vote for whether to keep it or delete it. Thanks, Shardsofmetal [ Talk • Contribs ] 21:22, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User scripts

I found some very useful user scripts that you might want to consider adding to your monobook.js file. The following are snippets of code, and the explanation of what they do.

• This code makes adding the following scripts a lot easier:

/* This function is used to include scripts from other Wikipedia pages in mine.  I got it from [[User:Quarl/monobook.js]]. */

function winc(s) {
    s = s.replace(/^\[\[/, '').replace(/\]\]$/, '');
    document.write('<scr' + 'ipt type="text/javascript" src="' 
             + 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=' + s
             + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></scr' 
             + 'ipt>');
}

// Include scripts from the [[de:]]

function dinc(s) {
    s = s.replace(/^\[\[/, '').replace(/\]\]$/, '');
    document.write('<scr' + 'ipt type="text/javascript" src="' 
             + 'http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=' + s
             + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></scr' 
             + 'ipt>');
}

• These 2 lines provide functions required by some scripts:

winc('[[Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/addLink]]');
winc('[[Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/Add LI link]]');

• This stops diff screens from running off the screen [1] by adding scroll bars to boxes if needed

winc('[[WikiProject User scripts/Scripts/Fix diff width]]');

• This is a very useful tool. It adds a "QuickEdit" link next to the edit link for each section, and the main section. When you click it, it replaces the section with a text box that has the wikitext in it, letting you edit it without having to load another page.

dinc('Benutzer:ASM/quickedit.js');

• This script adds to tabs to a user's contributions page: count and last 1000. The former counts up to 5000 edits in each namespace and reports the details, the latter reports on the last 1000 edits the user make.

winc('[[User:Ais523/editcount.js]]'); // Count a user's edits

• This last script adds 3 links to your personal tools at the top of the page. Right before the logout link, it adds the links online, busy, and offline. Clicking one of them automatically goes to User:Deyyaz/Status, edits your status, and saves the page. Pretty neat, I think...

// STATUS CHANGER
addOnloadHook(function (){
  var user = document.getElementById( 'pt-userpage' ).firstChild.firstChild.data;
  var subpage = "/Status";
  var linkprefix = "http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:";
  var contribs = document.getElementById( 'pt-mycontris' );
  //Add the links
  addlilink(contribs, linkprefix+user+subpage+"&action=edit&newstatus=Online", "Online", "pt-status-in", "Online", "");
  addlilink(contribs, linkprefix+user+subpage+"&action=edit&newstatus=Busy", "Busy", "pt-status-busy", "Busy", "");
  addlilink(contribs, linkprefix+user+subpage+"&action=edit&newstatus=Offline", "Offline", "pt-status-out", "Offline", "");
  if (location.href.indexOf("&action=edit&newstatus=") == -1) return; //Are we here to auto-edit the status?
  //Get new status
  statusRegExp = /&action=edit&newstatus=(.*)/;
  status = statusRegExp.exec(location.href)[1];
  //Modify the form
  document.getElementById('wpTextbox1').value = status;
  document.getElementById('wpSummary').value = "Status: "+status;
  document.getElementById('wpMinoredit').checked = 'checked';
  //Submit it!
  document.getElementById('editform').submit();
});

//

I hope you find these scripts useful. You might also be interested in taking a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts. There are many more there. Please tell me what you think of these. Shardsofmetal [ Talk • Contribs ] 03:27, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Jay_Weatherill.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:

[edit] Gilberto Silva

Hi Deyyaz - just a quick to let you know that I've responded to your comments about the Gilberto Silva article on the Gilberto Silva talk page. See you there! Cheers. -GilbertoSilvaFan 22:12, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Another quick note:- I've responded to your comments again on the Gilberto Silva talk page! Cheers. -GilbertoSilvaFan 08:22, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: William Watts Folwell

Hello Deyyaz, how are you doing? The article was deleted because it was found to be a copyvio per a new bot that was revealed yesterday here. See the report at www.wikipedia-watch.org/plagiarism/0172.html . Administrators deleted the article pages to purge the copyvio, and recreated the articles with content that was free. Since most of the talk pages were not deleted, we expected to have all the articles recreated before people noticed them missing, but apparently we missed that one. Feel free to create a new article with free content, or to mark the talk page for deletion. Sorry for this mistake. -- ReyBrujo 19:11, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome!

[edit] Image:SarahRudinoff.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:SarahRudinoff.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. --Chowbok ☠ 20:03, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the reminder!

Hey Tom, It's Colby. I completely forgot about The Jonbenéts. I decided I'd rather work on other projects instead (like working on my user page and skateboarding articles). I suppose I'll delete the photos if no one has used them or deleted them yet. See you later! --ColbyD! 03:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Change to Common.css

Per recent discussions, the way in which Persondata is viewed by Wikipedia editors has changed. In order to continue viewing Persondata in Wikipedia articles, please edit your user CSS file to display table.persondata rather than table.metadata. More specific instructions can be found on the Persondata page. --ShakingSpirit^talk on behalf of Kaldari 00:56, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Raymond Poe.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Raymond Poe.jpg. 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. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:45, 7 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 16:45, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Better Source Request for Image:Richard Kleindienst.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Richard Kleindienst.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talkpage. Thank you. MECU≈talk 00:56, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Judah Friedlander.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 that provides substantially the same information. 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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Meher Baba 3.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Meher Baba 3.jpg. 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.

[edit] AfD nomination of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Half Life (3 album)‎ and 2 other albums

I've nominated Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Half Life (3 album)‎, an article you created, and 2 related albums for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Half Life (3 album)‎ satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Half Life (3 album)‎ and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Half Life (3 album) and the two other articles identified in the AFD during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Inkpaduta 22:08, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

I haven't deleted them, I just nominated them for deletion. I did not nominate the group. I noted that they do not appear to satisfy WP:N for notability, like by being the subject of articles in rmultiple reliable, verifiable, and independent publications, or to have indication that they were hits on some chart or satisfied other aspects of WP:MUSIC. Maybe they did and the article just did not document it. You can add refs to the article or you can point out how they satisfy WP:MUSIC. Maybe the label is a major one, but I did not recognize it.

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of unassessed articles tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 20:24, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiproject Actors and Filmakers

Hey see my proposals at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals#Actor and Filmmakers and the main WP Film and Biography talk page. Know anybody who is interested? Actors and all film people articles need a body on wikipedia to upkeep them asthey need more focus -it would be a part of Biogrpahy and Film. It would be a part sub project of Biogrpahy but the enormous scope means it would need its own project page If you are interested or know somebody who would be, please let them know and whether you think it is a good progession for the project or not. Please leave your views at the council or biogrpahy main talk page. THanks ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 14:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Catherine Crier.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Catherine Crier.jpg. 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. BetacommandBot 17:58, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Claudia Ellquist

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Claudia Ellquist, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

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

Thank you for uploading Image:Girijakoirala.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. Strangerer (Talk) 22:37, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Fernand_Robichaud.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Fernand_Robichaud.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, then 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, then 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: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. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:10, 29 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu badali ^(talk) 12:10, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Amelia_Heinle.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.

Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page New irc channel Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: #wikipedia-en-bio Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

[edit] fair use?

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Michael Eric Dyson.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Michael Eric Dyson.jpg. I noticed 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 that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, 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 even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Christopher Buckley.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Christopher Buckley.jpg. 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 15:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Vacationland.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Vacationland.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. Ricky81682 (talk) 07:03, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Nick Offerman.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Nick Offerman.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 13:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Image:Clumsy.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:Clumsy.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image with an unknown source or an unknown copyright status which has been tagged as such for more than 7 days, and it still lacks the necessary information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. αѕєηιηє ^t/_c 15:53, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:No Address.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:No Address.jpg. 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.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Mangelsdorff.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mangelsdorff.jpg. 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. NotifyBot (talk) 13:18, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Amy Gilletts.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Amy Gilletts.jpg. 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.

• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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.
