[edit] Copyright tags
Could you please add copyright tags to the images you've been adding to the M.I.A. articles (such as Image:Galang.jpg, Image:B0002DSDLI-1.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg, etc)? Also, you should try to give your images human-understandable names, i.e. "Sunshowers.jpg" instead of "B0002DSDLI-1.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg". -℘yrop (talk) 16:59, May 22, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading Image:Diplo.jpg. Its copyright status is unclear, so it may have to be deleted. Please leave a note on the image page about the source of the image. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for a list of copyright tags that you can use. Thank you.
[edit] Image Tags
Please quit uploading images without putting an image tag (see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags). It's not that hard. Thanks - Nv8200p 17:50, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Onlinepft.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Onlinepft.png. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. --Secretlondon 18:59, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to Extraordinary Machine
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for the contributions! We're always happy to have new Wikipedians with a serious interest in improving articles! As you can see, we're also very keen on maintaining a neutral point of view (or NPOV) in all articles. Unfortunately, some of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's NPOV policy, and have been reverted. There's a great article about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. We thank you for your interest in helping Wikipedia to be well-rounded in its presentation of controversial subjects, and look forward to being able to fully incorporate your contributions! Extraordinary Machine 15:57, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Spook
I changed Spook back to redirect to Ghost thinking your edit wasn't appropriate. When I found out it was by reading the Chanel Cole article, I see it was indeed appropriate, and reverted it. Eventually, Spook should be made into a disambiguation page. -DDerby-(talk) 06:39, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] M.I.A. Copyright Violation?
Hi! You contributed extensively to the M.I.A. page. I'm concerned that the page violates copyright, and I'm hoping to find out more about the origin of the text. Could you please comment on the talk page? Thanks! --William Pietri 01:03, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Please sign/Buffy-Angel
Please sign your name using tildes ~~~~ when you place a comment on user pages - and on the B/A comment, I think the format is fine, but that empty sections that "will be filled soon" aren't really aesthetically pleasing or relevant. While people often mean to expand an article on Wikipedia to fill such sections, it often doesn't get done and the empty sections sit around for weeks and months, looking ugly and cluttering up the page until it's done. There's no reason to have a section unless it actually has content. --Xinoph 06:14, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Page moves
I see you moved Spike (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Faith (Buffy the Vampire Slayer). Are you sure that was a good idea? It seems to me to actually be less informative. There will be a lot of links that will need fixing now. Was there any discussion on Wikipedia:WikiProject Buffy about this? (Because I can't see it.) Please respond to this (on my Talk page) before making any more page moves. Thanks, pfctdayelise 03:37, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Also, please use an edit summary, especially when doing something as huge as a page move! It is courtesy to other editors who might have the page on their watchlist. pfctdayelise 03:43, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Never do a copy and paste move. You have lost the edit history, which is a copyright violation under the GDFL. I am undoing your redirect and restoring the page. User:Zoe|(talk) 04:01, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
- Your edits were to copyright violations. I did put mergeto notices on a couple of them. Just readd your information back to the articles with histories. User:Zoe|(talk) 04:43, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Pinchofhope, I think you should have a read over the Wikipedia:WikiProject Buffy. For a start, you are making lots of great edits, so I think you will fit right in. Also they have a bunch of roughly-worked out guidelines for BtVS-related articles. That doesn't mean you have to do exactly what they say, but it does tend to be a good idea, especially if you're not quite sure what you're doing.
I know the policy is to be WP:BOLD, but IMO it really only applies to editing page content. Page moves, in my mind, are not a part of that. Just because they can have ramifications beyond what you realise. If I have page A on my watchlist, and I don't notice that you've moved it to page B, then I could go a long time seeing no edits on page A and having no idea why. Then there's the problem of redirecting links - it is polite, I would say, if the # of links linking to page A is low, to manually go and correct them to link to page B. The larger problem is that of preserving the page history, which Zoe mentioned above. There is a better way to go about moving pages than "cut and paste" moves, which I think always have to be reverted, because of this edit history requirement. So just keep those things in mind.
Anyway, I started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Buffy#Faith (character) v Faith (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) so we can reach Wikipedia:Consensus about what to do about these two pages. Please feel free to take part in the discussion, and I would recommend letting it take its course before making any radical changes like page moves. Content edits are still totally ok.
If you have any questions or if you ever want to ask me about something else on WP, you can always leave a note on my Talk page. cheers! pfctdayelise 14:54, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Noticed you moved Jonathan's article to Jonathan Levenson. Would you please name your source? IMDB and my other sources state his last name us Levinson.--Gonzalo84 19:55, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image uploads
Hi. You have uploaded a number of images without any source information. Please see Wikipedia:Fair use for details about what information is needed for copyright-infringing images on Wikipedia. Thanks. Jkelly 04:18, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "Removed unneccessary info from infobox"
Hi, I agree that including the series is a good idea if the first appearance and last appearance are in different series, but having both as Buffy or Angel is just clogging up the infobox and it doesn't look good. The dates also seem unnecessary, and the date and series weren't on most of them when I made the infobox and replaced the coding with it, so I assumed that we weren't including them. eg. In the Cordelia article it is neccessary because it was two different series, but the dates look sort of ugly and crowded, IMO. Anyway, sorry about that, I'll leave them as they are. --Cooksey 22:33, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Unlicensed images
Hi, I'm concerned about the number of unlicensed images on the Chanel Cole page - 23 of them to be exact. I haven't looked at each image description but most of the screenshots were uploaded by you. This is way too many. Wikipedia could perhaps justify one or two per article, providing source/copyright and fair use rationale were included as per Wikipedia:Image description page, but it could never justify 23 in one article. Could you please look at Wikipedia:Copyrights, Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Image description page and take some action to dramatically reduce the number of images. If you need any help with this, please let me know. Thanks Rossrs 12:13, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
-
- Well I see that in the 2 months since I sent this message, you've grudgingly removed about 2 images. There are too many fair use images on the Chanel Cole article. No source or copyright information has been provided, although including this information would still not justify the overuse of so many images. I am going to list them all as unsourced and remove them from the article. Rossrs 13:37, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Childchanel.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Childchanel.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is 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.Rossrs 13:40, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Images
I notice that you have given source material, and thank you for doing that, though it's very vague. With the promo photos there should be a link to the website it came from. Also, as per the very template you have added - please read all of the text within the template - each image needs to be tagged with the copyright holder and a fair use rationale must be provided. "Fair use" can't be argued without this. The main problem remains the number of images. "Fair use" images should be used sparingly and the whole notion of illustrating every single performance Cole gave on Australian Idol flies in the face of claiming that we are using the images legally. Each image shows nothing new - the background is different, the hair, costume and makeup is different, but essentially it's Cole with a microphone in front of her face. We don't need 10 images for that. The album covers at the bottom of the page should be removed also. "Fair use" does not apply here and the covers are being used for decoration only. Any "fair use" claim would only apply to the article about the album itself. Please remove all album covers, and please reduce the number of images to something acceptable. I would suggest one promo photo at the top to illustrate her, and no more than 2 screenshots. The screenshots should illustrate text and should not just be decoration, therefore if you keep two, they need to illustrate different points. I know you've worked hard on the article and its images but using images without regard for copyright laws in this way only puts Wikipedia at risk, and that's not acceptable. Thanking you in advance. Rossrs 22:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Injecting a metric ton of copyrighted images without valid source information and fair use rationales for the specific article is not fair use and could lead to us being sued. I'm going to re-tag all images without source information and remove them from the article. Please read up on our policies concerning copyrighted material and understand that we simply cannot accept this sort of ignorance of copyright law as a defence. Rob Church 18:38, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
The following retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Rossrs" I understand that you're a Marcia Hines fan and most probably loathe Chanel and take most of what was said in the article personally, but I'm still a little confused by what I see as a rather passionate, angry response to a few simple mistakes in the article. Couldn't we find some kind of a middle ground instead of quickly tagging and deleting every image in the article and taking out almost every SINGLE adjective or descriptive word? I was merely trying to make the langauge and page more colourful, of course I went overboard and ventured into "fancruft" territory. But I don't apprechiate being dismissed as "reluctant" just because I'm not on the Internet for hours upon hours, obsessing over every little detaill in a Wikipedian article. Although I'm not exactly new to Wikipedia, I'm still getting used to writing articles and uploading images. I still don't understand all this fair use stuff. I see from above that people are thanking you for your help but all I seem to be getting is the cold shoulder and I can't help but feel like I've offended you in some way. 09:02, 12 March 2006 (UTC)Pinchofhope
First, I do like Chanel Cole (and Marcia Hines). I'm not a major fan of either but I like them both. Please don't take any of this personally as I'm not acting with malice. I explained to you about 6 weeks ago that 24 fair use images were too many. You removed 2 of them, and your edit summary was something like "removing images because I was told I have to". I would call that "reluctant", and I don't think it's dismissive, I think it's pretty accurate. I could have just removed the images from the article, but I understood that you care about them and gave you time to sort them out. Very few editors would have given you the 6 weeks that I gave you. I think I was more than accomodating. A few days ago I noticed you'd done nothing more with them, so I tagged them "no source". Once again I advised you so that you would have the option of fixing them. You changed all the tags, but still did not provide a source. It seemed to me that you had added tags without even reading the tag to see what was required. Plus you removed my tags. That looked to me like taking the easiest option to avoid having the images deleted, without actually doing anything to fix them. No, you did not offend me. I assumed that you were not interested in following the correct procedure, because although I had messaged you twice by this time, and you had acted without replying to me, I felt that you were most likely not interested in talking to me. I also felt the text was POV, but I felt after twice attempting to communicate with you, and twice being ignored that to make a suggestion to improve the tone of the article would be met with a similar lack of response. So I added the cleanup tag, and please note I have made no edits to the article. The deletion of the images and the changes to the text have been made by other users. You suggest I'm giving you the "cold shoulder". Nothing of the kind. I've written to you twice in the past explaining what was required, and you in fact have given me the "cold shoulder". Secondly, you say you don't know a lot about fair use. That's fair enough. I didn't know much about it when I started here, but I made sure I read everything I could. You would have been more than welcome to ask me for clarification. You are still welcome. I would have happily discussed it with you, and would have pointed you to the appropriate policy pages. You seem to making this my fault and suggesting that I've acted without considering your feelings. Believe me, if I wasn't considering your feelings I would not have written to you twice, and I would not have waited 6 weeks before taking stronger action, and I would not be writing to you now. It's not personal, you have not offended me at all, but I do think you should take a little bit more responsibility and not try to shift blame onto me. Rossrs 14:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked
You have been blocked for 24 hours. I caught you removing the problem tags from Image:Dawn Summers.jpg without resolving the underlying problems. Please do not do that again. --Yamla 17:54, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
- Hi. It looks like you are trying to fix the images. The problem with Image:Dawn Summers.jpg is, as noted, you have not provided a detailed fair-use rationale. The license you have chosen specifically says you still need to do this and points you at the Wikipedia:Image description page. The bit you need to be reading is right here, it's the bit on the detailed hand-written fair-use rationale which must be added for every article this image is used in. If you have read the links I have given here (and which are marked on the image page itself) and still do not understand, please give me a shout and I'll give you some examples where it is done correctly. Okay? --Yamla 00:41, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Majandra2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Majandra2.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

[edit] Tori Amos' 2007 studio album
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Tori Amos' 2007 studio album, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Tori Amos' 2007 studio album. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] Image:PatrickWolfProfile.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:PatrickWolfProfile.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:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - 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. ShadowHalo 22:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi. You uploaded this image a while ago. I looked around and managed to find a source, and I added a fair use rationale to it as well. I have also done the same to the other image on that page.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Spike.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Spike.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. ReyBrujo 00:08, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

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-no-disclaimers}} 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.

[edit] Regarding edits to Volta (album)
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Pinchofhope! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule img\.photobucket\.com/.*\.jpg\b, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy.

Thanks for uploading Image:Connor Angel.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.

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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Wesley Wyndam-Price.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Wesley Wyndam-Price.jpg. 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.

[edit] Removing deletion warnings
Please read and respect what is said in the ifd warning:
- "do not remove this notice while the discussion is in progress" [1]
The fair use rationale that you had added (calling it "copyright crap") is not consistent with Wikipedia's policies, for living persons like M.I.A. it is easy to create or find a replacement. Regards, High on a tree 23:44, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Darla.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Darla.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.
