[edit] animated

Hi, the speed can be changed by editing the gifs in imageready. the only thing I know close to a slideshow are templates, which you can add to the bottom of a series of images and then be able to click to any of them, see commons:Template:USA territorial evolution --Astrokey44 23:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Numalogic.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Numalogic.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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 01:58, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] county maps

okay, i will try to help. what did you want to do exactly? --Astrokey44 13:20, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I think it would be a good idea to ask Kmusser, who has made the maps of rivers on List of rivers in Georgia (U.S. state) --Astrokey44 09:17, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
That sounds like one of those projects that would be relatively easy with GIS software, but a pain without it, so you may want to take the GIS plunge. There are free ones out there, I've heard good things about http://www.qgis.org/ though I haven't used it. All the data you would need is at http://www.nationalatlas.gov/maplayers.html (boundaries: state and county; map reference: cities and towns; water: streams and waterbodies). The waterfalls themselves you'd probably have to draw in, but that's not hard once you have everything else. If you do I'll be available to answer GIS questions, making maps is so much easier with it, and I'm always happy to help another person become addicted. Kmusser 14:57, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DoRightCast.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:DoRightCast.JPG. 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. 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Gidney&Cloyd2.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Gidney&Cloyd2.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 22:08, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:HereBeMonstersCover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:HereBeMonstersCover.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.

[edit] Goof Gas Attack

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Goof Gas Attack, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Banana Formula. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:01, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


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

Thank you for uploading Image:Barberitos.jpg. 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. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
