[edit] Fair use?!

You happened to remove an Opera logo from my userpage because of alledged "fair use breach". IMHO, i think it's far from unfair use. By putting their logo on my userpage, i'm only promoting Opera. I'm free to put buttons and banners onto my personal webpage to promote Opera (look here: [1]). So why not onto a wikipedia userpage?? I'm sure Opera people are only too happy. THX for a sensible answer. Jancikotuc 21:14, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:BB05-ANEA.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:BB05-ANEA.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. BetacommandBot 21:17, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tilde

So, that template tends towards helping people that don't know how to use Wikipedia. How many different spots does the tilde have? Would it be possible to list them? Joie de Vivre 17:02, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Better: how many people who do not know where the tilde is are using a non-mainstream keyboard? Not many, I think. Joie de Vivre 17:03, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
I think listing all the possible positions might make the template larger than it needs to be. I have three keyboards with me at the moment, none of which have an unusual widely-used layout. The tilde is in the same place on only two of them, and none of these keys are next to the 1 key. The keys the symbol are on also have a different second function on each of the keyboards. Some pointers that might apply to all keyboards, such as the use of the Shift key and the fact that the tilde should be on the key, wouldn't be as problematic. J Di 17:10, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
I'm having trouble with the wording, want to take a look? Joie de Vivre 17:13, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi J DI, could you semi protect the Big Brother 2007 Australia article, thanks.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Mike Goldman.JPG

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Mike Goldman.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 freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. 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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs 22:34, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:South_Sydney_Rabbitohs.SVG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:South_Sydney_Rabbitohs.SVG. 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 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. BigrTex 22:50, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism On JAPW Article

Just so you know, the reason I deleted that info when you reverted back to it was because the person just copy and pasted the history of JAPW without even remotely paraphrasing it. Mr. C.C. 17:19, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Australia's Brainiest Kid.JPG

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Australia's Brainiest Kid.JPG. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:49, 11 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

[edit] Speedy deletion of Matthew Osment

A tag has been placed on Matthew Osment, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per speedy deletion criterion A7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.Marlith T/C 22:13, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of PHProjekt

I am wondering why a page I searched for is deleted. My domain-provider offers automatic installation for the software PHProjekt and it has 826.000 hits in Google (22 January 2008): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHProjekt http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/delete&page=PHProjekt (Deleting page - reason was: "Article about a non-notable individual, band, service, website or other entity" using NPWatcher) http://www.google.com/search?q=PHProjekt To my opinion there is a public interest (probably IT-centric) in the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.96.207.14 (talk) 14:52, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:BB03-DS.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:BB03-DS.JPG. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
