[edit] Image Question

Do you have permission to use Image:R142A Subway Cars.jpg on Wikipedia? You've tagged it public domain; has the picture taker released it as such? --SPUI (talk) 23:55, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, an error on my part; I used the wrong tag. I've fixed it. --Gafaddict 00:33, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sorry for the late response, and sorry for the bother - you do have permission to release it under the GFDL, right? Again, sorry if this is a misunderstanding. If you do have permission, can you change the nycsubway.org URL to the actual photo? The one you gave doesn't match. --SPUI (talk) 21:52, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I replied late as well. A month late. Sorry about that. Anyway, no, I never did get permission, and by this time I think the image has been deleted. --Gafaddict 03:54, 19 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Honesty on Benjamin Harrison

I think the new MediaWiki software automatically adds "blanked the page" to the summary now. Either that, or the vandals have gotten awfully courteous as of late. Neier 02:08, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:William_Malone_-_On_the_set_of_FearDotCom.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:William_Malone_-_On_the_set_of_FearDotCom.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:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
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. Rette tast 19:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Apoc.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 14:51, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Romance of the Three Kingdoms VI.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Romance of the Three Kingdoms VI.png. 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 (talk) 19:54, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Missy Palmer.jpg.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:R32 Subway on New York E Line.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:R32 Subway on New York E Line.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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 00:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Matrix Agents.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Matrix Agents.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. Polly (Parrot) 02:25, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
