[edit] Question

Hello there, I saw you posted on my talk page. Considering you seem to be quite open to newcomers, I'll just ask you my question right away: I've been doing research and have been editing an article on the Arms Industry - I used a picture that is copyrighted from Oxfam. I wasn't too sure about whether or not I would be allowed to actually use it, so I marked the copyright status as "uncomfirmed".

{{somewebsite}}

How do I change this? --Ludvig 17:27, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

It seems as if the image is copyrighted (its even stated on the picture itself) and unless the copyright holders explicitly release the copyright, or it falls into a certain blanket category, it can't be used. The image will be deleted (unless you can get written permission from the copyright holders). For further information, see Wikipedia:fair use and Image copyright tags. Hope that helps.

[edit] Hei

Velkommen til Wikipedia, selv om du har vært hær ganske lenge :) Fint å se att du skriver masse her, selv har jeg ikke gjort så mye på Wikipedia den siste tiden. Men for eksempel så sorterer jeg ut bilder som kommer uten lisens og kildeinformation, det er jo ganske viktig da. For eksempel bilden Image:27pictoputonmap.jpg som du har lastet opp er litt problematisk.. vi kan bare markere de som PD hvis vi snakket med artisten selv, eller finner en veldig tydlig lisenstekst på webbsiden. I dette fallet så fant jeg dette: [1] (teksten om copyright og gjenbruk lengst ned) -- hvilket betyr att det ikke går an. :(

Selv om det virker trist att vi ikke kan bruke så mye bilder så er det kanske ikke så merkelig. Det wikipedianerne har funnet ut er i prinsipp at hvis man vil ha en fri encyklopedi, må man bygge den selv, og det er ganske sant om bilder og illustrasjoner også. Selv liker jeg ikke engang fair use-bilder, men de må vi ibland akseptere. Men bilden på Mjøsa som du har lastet opp er veldig fin! Sverdrup❞ 12:48, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ELECTROMATIC AfD

Hey, you didn't list it on the AfD page! Don't worry, I have already done it for you and voted for deletion. --Neigel von Teighen 16:55, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Hehe, sorry, I completely forgot! Thanks for the help :D --Ludvig 16:57, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Diaphragm

If you read the diaphragm article, you will see that the diaphragm rests against the pubic bone. That means the dome of the diaphragm covers all the surface next to the bladder, and the anterior rim rests against the urethra. Both images show how a cervical cap fits (covering only the cervix and not the vaginal wall); the top image might be better for cavity rim caps like Oves and Prentif that adhere directly to the cervix, the bottom image better for Vimule and FemCap which adhere to the vaginal walls immediately surrounding the cervix. Neither image shows how the diaphragm covers much of the vaginal wall, or how it can apply pressure to the urethra. The diaphragm image is badly made.

I intend to draw in a correctly placed diaphragm on a better image when I have time, but until then I believe the poorer-quality image is more accurate for the diaphragm article. Lyrl Talk Contribs 01:35, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concordia Newsletter

NEWSLETTER

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

[edit] Help out now!

  • Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the talk page.
  • Give people the Civility Barnstar.
  • Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
  • Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
  • Suggest some ideas! Add 'em to the talk page.

We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

[edit] Decision Making

The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

[edit] Mjosa

I'd argue that adding a (citation needed) is not normally a minor edit. Presumably the goal is to get the original author's attention; not all of us watch minor edits all the time. Williamborg (Bill) 04:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I guess I won't use minor edits for (citation needed) anymore...--Ludvig 21:50, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello! We are a group of editors working to improve the quality of France related articles.

[edit] Université de Montréal

Hello and thanks for the comment. I'm new here, so I need to learn how things work :) So, how do I put a source to material that isn't online, as I believe Maclean's University issue not to be?Dusis 16:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mulemba Xangola.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Mulemba Xangola.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.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Zucchabar.jpg

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 (talk) 03:20, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
