[edit] RoHS

Hi Prosecreator; I posted a response on my talk page to the image topic. I also have a compromise proposal in there. Regards, Aki Korhonen 05:25, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Pht-solder-joint.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.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 18:10, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg. I noticed 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 {{di-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 even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 16:36, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thank You, Too

I wanted to thank you as well. Working on the RoHS article has been enjoyable. I'm also glad the picture police hasn't pulled the image down again. I'm hoping to find some time to provide more data on the several incomplete topics. It'll be interesting to see how that will fit in. Aki Korhonen (talk) 08:11, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg again

Copyright tags are explained here: it doesn't mean putting "©" on the article page. I hope you get to sort this out, but editors have become very rigid about this recently.

The image has been marked for deletion again:

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Pht-solder-joint.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.

A user has now applied a "fair use" tag, and my comments above no longer apply. Best. --Old Moonraker 09:10, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
