From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sorry, but your Rap Basement article has been deleted. The sorts of articles Wikipedia encourages are the sort that would be in a regular encyclopedia. Only famous websites make the cut, unfortunately. Please, we encourage you to contribute other articles, though -- noncommercial stuff is always appreciated. :) --Unforgettableid 04:05, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Kenji

I like the Kenji Fukui article you created, though. Stubs really encourage other people to create longer articles on Wikipedia. :) --User:Unforgettableid

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Immortal01.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Immortal01.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 20:45, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Explanation of the message above

  • Did you take the Immortal01 picture? Are you willing to release it under the GFDL?
  • If someone else took the picture, did you talk to them? Have they given you per

mission to release it under the GFDL for them?

Wikipedia needs to know all this, as we like open content. That means that anyone can copy our encyclopedia, e.g. on DVD-ROM, and improve it, and we can incorporate their changes back into Wikipedia, among other things.

That is why we need to know licensing information. See WP:HELP and search for uploading for more info on tagging, or click "talk to me" below. Cheers,

[edit] Reply

I got the immortal technique picture from a website.. Just through a google image search. It was on a music site and it was taken by a professional photography company, so I'm guessing I can't use it?

Probably not unless the photography company gives special permission. See Wikipedia:Image use policy if you want details. We are always happy to accept text and images that you have made, but sadly we cannot always accept others. :-) --unforgettableid | talk to me 07:41, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Randall head.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Randall head.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media 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 media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media 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 media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media 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 description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media 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. High on a tree 21:20, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
