[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Rudolph-carnap.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Rudolf-carnap.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 on Wikipedia 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. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 04:58, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hello too

Sorry if your ideas on citation are getting swamped here. The more I think about it, the more I agree that the best way of scaring of the trolls is standards like these. When I started out here, there was nothing of the sort: only personal essays.

Do you have a sample of anything substantial you wrote? Dbuckner 08:42, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

No prob about the citation ideas getting swamped. Hopefully some people will provide some comments. About a sample of my contributions: It's difficult because I do mostly cleaning up and not so much large substantial contributions. Here's a list of my contributions for starters. I did, however, do quite a bit of the work on the a priori and a posteriori (philosophy) entry. There were two pages, a priori and a posteriori, and the a priori entry was mixed with non-philosophy stuff. So, I did a lot of work by making the a priori page a disambiguation page, then I redirected a posteriori and created a priori (philosophy) to redirect to a priori and a posteriori (philosophy). I then did a lot of work organizing, adding content, and added sources to the a priori and a posteriori (philosophy) entry. So, you can take a look at that entry (a priori and a posteriori (philosophy)), for a sample, since I've done a lot of that. I also did a similar thing for the Analytic/synthetic distinction entry. I've also done quite a bit on the following pages: conceptual analysis, Knowledge argument, John Perry (philosopher), Jaegwon Kim, Frank Cameron Jackson, Stephen Stich. -- Jaymay 22:11, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] a priori

Hello. Could you please comment at Talk:A priori (mathematical modeling) or on the AfD page for that article? Thanks. Michael Hardy 00:32, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Michael. I don't know what "a priori" means in mathematical modeling. I only know its applications in philosophy. Any edits I have made to that article would just have to do with the disambiguation entry related to a priori. - Jaymay 03:05, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

I just noticed your reply on my user page. If it had been on my talk page, I'd certainly have seen it earlier. Michael Hardy 13:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Wittgenstein-tractatus-ogden.JPG

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Wittgenstein-tractatus-ogden.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. — Carl (CBM · talk) 02:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi. First, you state that I could fix this "by taking a picture of it [my]self." I did take a picture of it myself. That's what's posted. And that's clearly stated in the image summary.
Second, what is this image supposed to be replaceable with? I don't know that a comparable "freely licensed image could reasonably be found." I don't think this can really be decided without the alternative freely licensed image present.
Since it is a picture that I took with my own camera, I'm just going to leave it as is and assume that everything is okay, unless I hear otherwise. Thanks. -- Jaymay 18:00, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Flanders-note2.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Flanders-note2.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 06:24, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
