[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Yaxbalam.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Yaxbalam.gif. 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] Unspecified source for Image:Yaxbalam.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Yaxbalam.gif. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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 01:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cjllw | TALK 01:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Jimpaz- as an addendum to the standard notification above, several other imgs you have uploaded also currently do not specify the source (image:Xbalanque.gif,image:A Hun Ajaw.jpg,image:Hunahpu.gif). Note that the source is required even if you are maintaining these imgs are in the Public Domain, or otherwise ineligible for copyright. Also, even if these are (presumably) illustrations of glyphs and depictions from pre-Columbian sources, that does not automatically mean these particular illustrations are ineligible for copyright. It would depend on whether or not they are as redrawn by some modern researcher or illustrator, in which case copyright might still apply (to this particular rendition). If these are cropped from facsimile reproductions of some "old" (eg codex) document, as seems to be the case for A Hun Ajaw.jpg, then that would be a different matter, as would be the case if they are your own drawings. However, if you are able to annotate the source for these on the respective image pages, then that would help clarify the matter. Regards, --cjllw | TALK 01:35, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Ficklepicker
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ficklepicker, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}
to the top of Ficklepicker. JackSchmidt (talk) 21:27, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
