[edit] Dubious image uploads

You have uploaded a number of images with the claim that they are "self-made" however this does not appear to be true. A specific example of this is : Image:Chinese Dongfeng Missile railway transport.jpg which appears to be copied from SinoDefence here: http://www.sinodefence.com/strategic/missile/images/df25_03large.jpg

I would ask you now to review all of your image uploads and remove the "self-made" claim from any that you did not photograph. By mislabeling such images, you cause significant damage to the project, and may bring liability for copyright infringement on your own head.

Please tag any images you have uploaded in error with {{db-author}} and they will be deleted. Megapixie (talk) 04:36, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

As far as I can tell - you didn't take the images in question. If you did - please upload a small portion of either image at a higher resolution, so that it is possible to verify your claim. If you really did take the photos then that shouldn't be a problem. But the probability is that you just ripped them off sinodefence or some random Chinese forum. If you continue to make these claims without providing some substantiation I will be push for getting both your account and IP address blocked from this site and commons.
