[edit] Photos

Hi, could you license these images (below)? If you're unsure about what license you want, I tend to license mine under the GFDL and CC-BY-SA licenses, the default. These mean anybody may use re-use them, but when they do they must acknowledge the photographer and make it clear to others that they may also re-use them. You could also make them public domain (release all rights), but this allows people to use them without acknowledging you and without telling others that they're free to use them. If you don't own the copyright to them and can't request permission from the copyright owner the photos will have to be deleted to prevent Wikipedia being in breach of copyright laws. I also recommend using Wikimedia Commons [1]. Images uploaded there will automatically also be on Wikipedia, but at commons we can create galleries and categorise photos.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Speedy1.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Speedy1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Dethomas 23:05, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Neyssign70's.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Neyssign70's.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.
