[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Election 2.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Election 2.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] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Infernal affairs.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Infernal affairs.jpg. 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. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:51z8Nh4oQZL_SS500_.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:51z8Nh4oQZL_SS500_.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 11:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? MER-C 11:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mulholland Dr.

Hello, Marychan41. I notice you've been making edits to this article, mostly to increase the profile of Universal Pictures. I wonder if you work for them, in fact. I've reverted the last few edits you made because they include external links instead of inline citations, and what appeared to me to be gratuitous mention of Universal. The one you made earlier today included a citation for Box Office Mojo that was already there. You can find how to write inline citations here. I hope you notice the article is very well-researched. I invite you to make changes as you see necessary if you find glaring omissions or errors. So far, the changes you have been making don't rectify omissions or errors. Thank you. --Moni3 (talk) 12:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Of course I have to edit it. It is because this movie has different distributors in Canada and United States; TVA Films in Canada, and Universal Pictures in United States. Because Universal Pictures only have United States rights to this movie, they didn't report this movie's Canada gross to many website, like boxofficemojo.com and IMDB. (In most cases, boxofficemojo.com reported the movie's North America box office gross; in some case it only reported Canada gross; in some case, it only reported United States gross.) If you don't believe me, see boxofficemojo.com's box office chart yourself.... This movie got wide release in Canada in 10/26/2001; but in this movie's boxofficemojo.com box office chart, the theater numbers of this movie actually decreased in 10/26/2001. Therefore, I need to correct the mistake in the article. Thank you.--Marychan41 (talk) 19:23, 21 May 2008 (CA)
