From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!

[edit] Image Tagging Image:The Roots.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:The Roots.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. --Michael 04:03, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock.jpg
No source is specified for Image:Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock.jpg. it has been tagged as lackign a source for months. it has now been tagged for speedy deletion. If you have source info and copyright info or a fair-use rartionale for this image, please add it to the image page ASAP or it may be deleted at any moment. DES (talk) 22:42, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Images Image:Reggie Bush.jpg and Image:Matt Leinart.jpg
Like the previous talk entries, one of your uploaded images, Image:Reggie Bush.jpg, does not have a tag. Another of your uploads Image:Matt Leinart.jpg is tagged as public domain, as well as labled as coming from the Associated Press. This tag may be correct, but you should indicate in the description that the author of the photo has explicitly released the picture to the public domain. This is not the case with the vast majority of AP photos, though. --Meegs 00:01, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Gmail--"minor edit"
I take that it was a mistake that you marked the lasted edit on Gmail as "minor". In the future, when this happens, it would probably be a good idea to make a minor edit following your not-so-minor edit, noting the importance of the previous edit in the summary box. Anyway, the conflict in urgency between the minor-mark and the summary was quite amusing (in a friendly way). :-) -Theaterfreak64 11:05, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Matt Leinart
oops, I was wrong. I was getting confused between the year the bowl was played and the season that preceded the bowl.--Alhutch 23:13, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:BC High Original Campus.jpg
|
Thanks for uploading Image:BC High Original Campus.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}} 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. -- Longhair 13:09, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Travis_Raila.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Monkey Vault.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Monkey Vault.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Canley 09:59, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Motorola PEBL.jpg
This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:Motorola PEBL.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 free image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
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.
[edit] RFD for Navigation popups
I have suggested that Navigation popups, a redirect which you created, be deleted. If you would like to participate in the discussion, it can be found here. Cheers, Black Falcon 22:19, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Enigma_Concert.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Enigma_Concert.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. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. Rettetast 21:23, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:B000E97HB2.01. SCLZZZZZZZ .jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:B000E97HB2.01. SCLZZZZZZZ .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 15:32, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
