[edit] Wikipedia:Image recreation requests

Greetings. I just started the Wikipedia:Image recreation requests project, and I thought you might be interested. Your help would be greatly appreciated. (I got your name from the list at Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Graphic Artists.) Best regards, – Quadell (talk) (sleuth) 03:13, Jan 30, 2005 (UTC)

Sure, I'll drop by when I'm in the mood to do some doodling. Unfortunately I can only access the web at work, and my tools are on my laptop. — PhilHibbs | talk 10:35, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Graphics Lab

I saw your name listed on Wikiproject Illustration or the list of graphic artists, and I thought I'd let you know that a Graphics Lab has been created on EN. Based on the highly successful French and German graphics labs, it seeks to better organise and coordinate our graphic design and photo-editing efforts. Up until now, there has been no common space on EN where users could ask for maps, charts and other SVG files to be created. What's more, the Graphics Lab has discussion boards, tips, tools and links; in sum, a good common workspace. Come help us out! The infrastucture is already in place, and now we need participants. :) --Zantastik talk 02:08, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Attack on america big.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Attack on america big.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] Fair use rationale for Image:Halo_jones.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Halo_jones.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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. ShakespeareFan00 10:46, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Attack

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on this page, by 209.53.181.112 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because the article is a page created primarily to disparage its subject or a biography of a living person that is controversial in tone and unsourced, where there is no neutral point of view version in the history to revert to. (CSD G10).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting the article, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate the article itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 23:53, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

FYI, I restored the redirects. I found your argument perfectly reasonable, and the existence of the term on the article page sealed the deal. — Scientizzle 16:21, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Kung fu master mame.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Kung fu master mame.png. 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.

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:Judge_dredd.png

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Judge_dredd.png. 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 after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 15:19, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Done. I restored the page to its revision directly before my deletion. Good luck! Jmlk17 08:30, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help desk inquiry

No, Wikipedia has whole website duplicates, that do not link back here. They copy the very framework of the site. Anyways that information is totaly free, and we have a statement somewhere that says something about that. But it's the FREE encyclopedia, and only the logo is trademark.--Kkrouni/Ккроуни/ΚκρΩυνι 16:54, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that doesn't help. My example is of someone who doesn't want to clone the database, just wants to link to an article in order to conform with the GFDL (the link provides attribution to the authors), but then the article is deleted and so the content is no longer attributed and so the GFDL is violated. — PhilHibbs | talk 09:00, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:PUNC

I don't think WP:PUNC says that commas should go outside quotation marks every single time. That rule only applies when quoting what somebody has said. It doesn't mean that they also have to go outside the quote marks around titles of books, films, articles etc.. Richard75 19:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Well the title of the book doesn't contain a full stop or a comma, so it's misleading to put one in there, I think that's the principle. Accuracy over style. — PhilHibbs | talk 20:37, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Well OK then, I don't want to mislead anyone. Richard75 18:26, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
And as to the "I am the law," I had a suspicion that the comma was in the song title but I checked the article on the album and didn't see it there - is there really a comma in the song title? — PhilHibbs | talk 20:40, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
No, that was a mistake on my part, rushing an edit. I have changed it back. Sorry about that. Richard75 18:26, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind offer - I have found a torrent of a .tar.gz that seems to have more peers than the .zip version, if I run into problems though I'll ask. — PhilHibbs | talk 11:04, 16 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Little context in Anka

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Anka, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Anka is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Anka, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] AfD nomination of Gun fu

An editor has nominated Gun fu, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gun fu and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 06:59, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Kung fu master mame.png

Thank you for uploading Image:Kung fu master mame.png. 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. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 21:57, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Feathers Hotel Ludlow.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Feathers Hotel Ludlow.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, 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, 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:Non-free content, 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 22:08, 23 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 22:08, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
