[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Steve square blur.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Steve square blur.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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] deletion of the "Derrick Gardner" article

I have just posted the article about Derrick Gardner, a musician from michigan. The article was almost immediately deleted. I am new to wikipedia and am not sure why it was deleted. if its because i didn't post enough sources, i can post many more. Thanks

I find a notice on the deleted page accusing it of violating the copyright of the page at this site. It says it's "unquestionably" a copyright violation, and that conclusion seems irrational to me unless there's a lot of evidence that's not cited there. That it would be suspected of copyright violation seems reasonable since there's substantial verbatim identical text, and in such cases the page could be replaced with a standard Wikipedia notice used for such occasions. User:Nishkid64 has on previous occasions deleted pages within minutes of their creation, in one recently pointed out case (see his talk page) unreasonably. Michael Hardy 18:07, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Derrick angry.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 18:48, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Owl Studios

Greetings, Jamjahal. I've noticed that all of your edits have been to Owl Studios or artists that are signed to Owl. That, and because your user name might stand for Jamming J. Allan Hall, the studios' founder, I was wondering whether you may have a conflict of interest. If so, you edit may be categorized as spam. Please see Wikipedia's guidelines concerning conflict of interest, neutral points of view and spam. If this is merely a coincident, no problem. If you are Mr. Hall or have an interest re Owl Studios, please respect Wikipedia's policies. Thank you. --Evb-wiki 15:09, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

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.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Derrick blowing.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Derrick blowing.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. matt br 12:16, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Brent Wallarab Conducting.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Brent Wallarab Conducting.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. 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 escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
