[edit] NFL MVP

Let's try to work together, there's no need to be upset. Quadzilla99 01:26, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
I've got revert it please don't get mad per the policy of WP:VERIFY even if it's true it needs a source. I'll tell you what I'll look on The New York Times awesome online archives and try to get the original press release. Quadzilla99 01:43, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
I'll leave it in there while I check the archives. Quadzilla99 01:45, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Sorry but there was no story in there that I could find unfortunately. Like WP:Verify says "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth." There's no rush you can always change it back when you get a source. Quadzilla99 02:05, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Great. That photo is licensed wrong though. Read WP:Fair use. The New York Times still has the copyright on it. Quadzilla99 03:20, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
I think we can still use it, it just needs to be licensed properly. Quadzilla99 03:22, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Okay as far as licensing . . . since it is not the full article I thought it would be under Fair use . . . however, I defer to you, either way is fine by me.Jturney 03:25, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

(undent) Well you licensed it as free use. Fair use means it's copyrighted and fair use is claimed by us. It needs a WP:Fair use rationale and you should be fine. See that page and then see a paper/magazine like this one:[1] that has a rationale. Don't copy the rationale from the example you're supposed to make it specific for the image and explain why it's necessary for the articles it's used in. Quadzilla99 03:33, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

I added the correct copyright tag btw. Quadzilla99 03:34, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
okay, I thank you for help on the copywright. I am not sure the images of the articles are necessary, but they are used as verification for an error that has been in the public domain for many years.Jturney 03:38, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
I fixed the formatting it you want a note or reference to appear in a references section put it inside here <ref> </ref> and then put a reference section down below. Quadzilla99 04:27, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Justicepage.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Justicepage.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 08:07, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

When I uploaded, there was no listing for a state agency, only a US Government agency. This photo is a PR photo of the suprem court of Minnesota, as such, taxpayers paid for it and its use is for the public to see it. It is under Fair use, I am very certain.Jturney 07:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:PhilOlsen.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Phil Olsen.jpg. The copy called Image:Phil Olsen.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 23:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:DWWSlogo w 1997small.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:DWWSlogo w 1997small.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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:32, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
