Why did you rv my edits to Sally Ann Howes without even contacting me?? She is a naturalized U.S. citizen, which means she is an American actress and singer, not an "English" one per se, although indisputably an "English-born" one. Rosemary's Baby 19:33, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sally Ann Howes images

Hello. There are actually a few issues with the images used on the Sally Ann Howes article, not just the one I notified you about. WP:FAIR has more details, but in a nutshell:

All images you upload must identify the source and copyright holder. This is just as true for publicity photos. If you got it from a website, you need to indicate the URL. If you scanned it yourself say so, but also indicate where you got the image. Wikipedia is pretty strict about the information that has to be included with images. Wikipedia:Publicity photos has more info concerning publicity photos.
Images you upload should be tagged appropriately. In the case of the photo I notified you about, that copyright notice specifically states that it is only used for works created by the UK government. Since publicity photos generally aren't created by the gov't (except for gov't employees), that public domain tag is not applicable. I think you have some other images tagged the same way, so those will need to be changed as well.
Any images that is used under a claim of Fair Use must be used to comment on or critique the object in the image. So including a photo from a play or a still from a movie is not fair use, unless you are commenting critically on the work itself. The general idea here is that images should not be used just to spruce up a page - they must be used for a specific purpose. Just saying "here's a picture of Sally Ann Howes appearing in XXX" is not fair use.
Fair use doctrine limits the number of images that can be used in an article. Other editors may feel differently, but my take is that the sheer amount of images in the Sally Ann Howes article is much too high to qualify as fair use.

That's about it as far as the image issues are concerned. I would like to pass along a few other suggestions as well, and if you have any questions let me know:

On your user page you state that, "Although I don't mind other wikiphiles making changes to the work I create on Wikipedia, please make sure you have something of added value to contribute to the articles. I spend months or years in research." It's great that you are dedicated to ensuring that articles of these types are of a certain quality. But please be careful not to cross over into ownership of articles. Any text you add to Wikipedia automatically becomes eligible for revision by anyone who contributes here. Obviously, if falsehoods are entered in an article you should correct them. Likewise, if someone blatantly vandalizes an article, that should be undone. But otherwise, we must always assume good faith when someone edits an article.
Regarding your talk page - while there is no rule that states you can't delete the contents of your talk page, some may view that as hostile under certain circumstances. The more accepted method is to archive it instead. Help:Talk page has more details.

I hope this has been helpful, and please note that I am by no means trying to give you a hard time. It's clear that you are a very dedicated editor, so I want to see that you don't run afoul of any policies or procedures here. --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 19:40, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:image source information

To add source info, all you have to do is to edit the image page and type the source. There's no special field or tag for it. --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 23:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Cobstonemill.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cobstonemill.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Cdcover-sm.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Cdcover-sm.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.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:24_1_b.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:24_1_b.JPG. I noticed that 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 10:37, 5 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 10:37, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bh-sm.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Bh-sm.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 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. MER-C 09:56, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mrpolly2.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Mrpolly2.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.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Mrpolly2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mrpolly2.jpg. I noticed 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:

Go to the image 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 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 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —An gr 14:18, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Nn2.jpeg

Thank you for uploading Image:Nn2.jpeg. 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. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. 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.BetacommandBot (talk) 15:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
