Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions, such as you did to Adolfo Camarillo. This is a simple mistake to make and is easy to correct. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 13:34, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:White-horse rider.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:White-horse rider.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 02:08, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fixing image

Hey Kroytz, I really like the image you put up on Camarillo White Horse, but I notice that the wikigods are not happy with its copyright status. If you own the image or if it's somehow a free image, upload it with a GDFL tag, or, ideally, public domain. If it's copyrighted, you MIGHT be able to salvage it with a fair use tag, if there are no free images of Camarillo White Horses anywhere to be found. (Fair use tags are a PITA to do, but I did ones for Khemosabi and Skowronek, if you want an example of how that works--you need verbiage on the article page AND on the image page) Click the "help" link to the left and go through the "uploading images" articles to figure it out. Takes a bit to get it all down, but not too tough to do once you have it figured out. Montanabw(talk) 04:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

By the way, if you get the proper copyright stuff on that image, I would love to also use it or one like it in parade horse, as I cannot find any other free images of those elaborate silver saddle. Could you be so kind as to let me know how that all shakes out? Thanks! Montanabw(talk) 05:51, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fixing vandalism

Hi Rick, when you fix vandalism it is better to revert rather than fix the bad edits that you have seen, as there may be other bad edits that you didn't notice. When you made the fix [here, the vandal actually messed with the name as well here so what you need to do is request rollback here and then you'll have a special rollback button that allows you to revert the most recent edits by one user.
