[edit] Image:Anabbarros.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Anabbarros.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. MECU≈talk 01:14, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Advice Request

Hello Neoarchon! I was wondering if I could ask you about systems engineering. I'm in my second last year in secondary school and I'm certain that I'll have a science/engineering/maths oriented career but I'm not sure about the specifics. Could you tell me a bit about systems engineering? If it's an interdisciplinary field, what engineering would come in handy? Could you do a primary degree in physics and maths and do a relevant engineering postgrad degree? If you could tell me a bit about it I'd be very grateful. Thank you very much. --Onias 20:18, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I see. So I should get a broad education in computing? That sounds good. I could get a joint-honours degree in Maths and Computer Science or Maths and Electronic Engineering. Thanks for your help. --Onias 22:22, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Question

Non free images are allowed in encyclopediac articles if they are necessary/extremely relevant to illustrate the article in question. (For example, a movie poster or a company logo.) However, non-free images are not allowed in non-encyclopediac areas of Wikipedia such as portals and userpages (and by extension, userboxes) because that violates copyright laws. For example, in the Portal:Sony PlayStation Selected biography section, if I want to put Sony Computer Entertainment in there, I can't use the logo pic that is in the article on SCEI. I hope that answers your question. If you want to read the official policy on non-free images, see here. (I will warn you, it's pretty heavy reading.) I'm sorry I can't explain it better because I'm still kind of new and I'm not 100% sure of the reasoning behind the policy. If you still don't understand it, I would recommend asking at the Help Desk. I can almost guarentee you you will get an answer there. Thingg⊕⊗ 15:08, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Xbox Live userbox

I like your PSN userbox. hopefully you're not too much of a PlayStation diehard and might consider creating a nice one for Xbox Live users? the user who created the present Xbox Live userbox hasn't been around since October. here's the message I left him with my ideas -

>Any possibility of jazzing up this userbox? perhaps with a picture? LIVE in orange would be nice, see Xbox Live for the image. it would also be cool if you automagically linked to http://live.xbox.com/member/XXX where XXX is the gamertag inputted. and made the color for the link white to match the rest of the text. Thanks in advance! xenocidic (talk) 21:07, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
