[edit] License tagging for Image:THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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. 20:08, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

If the person you mentioned gave you permission to use the image, simply add {{Attribution}} to the bottom of the image description. If you took it, you might want to consider {{cc-by-2.5}}, which standardizes thing to this set of rules. Once again, a full set of possible tags can be found at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. -newkai | talk | contribs 07:58, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your contributions to the THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! —D-Rock 08:25, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your addition of THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY. However, you copied the text from the gallery's site, which is not allowed. (See Wikipedia:Copyrights). I created an article The Warehouse (Syracuse) which I believe is necessary before we even consider a specific article about the gallery, as it is only a part of the larger whole. Feel free to write about the gallery there, just make sure it's original (your work). If, at some point, writing about the gallery becomes very long, it can be split off into a separate article. -newkai | talk | contribs 09:20, 30 June 2006 (UTC) -newkai | talk | contribs 09:45, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coalition of Museum And Art Centers

As with THE WAREHOUSE GALLERY, this text was copy/pasted from http://cmac.syr.edu/about.php. Sorry, but you can't do that. You can rewrite the article in your own words, however. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but they have to be your own! -newkai | talk | contribs 10:57, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
