[edit] Photo contribution

Glad you enjoyed using Wikipedia enough to want to start contributing, too. Watch out--I've found that it can be addictive. :-) But have fun and do keep contributing as the inspiration strikes.

About the photo you uploaded, Image:Olive 4 053105.JPG--Wikipedia needs to know the source (e.g., photographer or URL) of its images and under what license it's released for free use. I release mine under GFDL, but others choose to release into the public domain. You can label the photo description page with, for example, {{GFDL}} or {{PD}} to clarify. Could you do that for this photo, please? Thanks. And ask if you have any questions. Elf | Talk 17:42, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Canadian Strength Party

Hi! I'm just inquiring about your article on the Canadain Strength Party, which is evidently a hard-left political group. I'm just wondering if it is important enough to meet Wikipedia standards, as I have never heard of it (I live in BC), and I couldn't find a single google or Yahoo! hit. You can reply on either this page or my talk page. Best wishes. --Scimitar 20:37, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• I'm going to nominate the article for VfD. If this is mistaken, please present your arguments there. --Scimitar 21:30, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Peter, Scimitar is mistaken in believing that there is a consensus that only important parties have a place on Wikipedia. There is no consensus that "notability" is a valid grounds for deletion. Having said that, verifiability is a necessary condition for being on Wikipedia. I have been unable to find any evidence of this party. If you can provide such evidence, I will gladly change my vote, and encourage others to do so as well. Ground Zero 03:03, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• I'm also holding off on my vote, pending confirmation that the party exists. If it's real, I think it should be kept -- but I need some evidence first. CJCurrie 19:43, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Evelyndick.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Evelyndick.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Dethomas 19:12, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:SAC.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. 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) 04:57, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
