[edit] The Art of Discworld

In the infobox, you describe The Art of Discworld as the 2nd art book. Which was the first? – Tivedshambo (talk) 20:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I consider The Pratchett Portfolio to be the first. Eldestone 15:29, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Didn't know about this one - I'll have to look on Amazon :-)  – Tivedshambo (talk) 15:35, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Resolution

I've restored the image to the previous low-resolution scan - under the terms of the "fair-use" licence, only low resolution images are acceptable. Also it should only be used where necessary, e.g. for the article discussing the book. Unfortunatley this does not cover the article Mona Lisa. – Tivedshambo (talk) 16:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

I wonder how you define how low low has to be. I like to think of it a lower than what would be needed to make a good paper print and about the size that you otherwise are able to find on the net. I thought that it was a shame that you couldn't see the Mona Ogg properly. Eldestone 22:12, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
The guidlines don't say, but I take it to mean the smallest resolution to be of any practical use. The idea being that if users want to see it in detail, they should buy the book, rather than Wikipedia gaining from the copyright of other people. – Tivedshambo (talk) 05:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Unmastered - jay brannan.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Unmastered - jay brannan.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. —Angr 16:56, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mr Teatime.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mr Teatime.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 22:08, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
