[edit] Carpatho-Ukraine

Tahnk you for your contribution to this artcicle. Could you please cite the sources you used? I found one: at the Flags of the World page. But you added much more than what's there.

If you used a book or an off-line source, it is not a problem of course. Just add a customary ref to a book to the article's references section. Thanks, --Irpen 00:20, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Jansyrovy.PNG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Jansyrovy.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. Rettetast 22:52, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Jansyrovysignature.PNG

I have tagged Image:Jansyrovysignature.PNG as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. Rettetast 22:52, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Duplicate Image:1stslovakia flag bordered.PNG

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:1stslovakia flag bordered.PNG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

[edit] History of Czechoslovakia (1918–1938)

Hi, I'm reverting your edits to this article. I understand what you're doing, but this is a history, article not a country article. The edits you made would apply to Czechoslovakia or Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. I think creating First Czechoslovak Republic and Second Czechoslovak Republic would be a great idea, but it needs to be discussed first. Thanks. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 22:05, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

You might want to read this and this for the discussion that happened earlier about the same idea. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 22:09, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anschluss, Sudetenland, and Memel Medals - German Occupation Medals

Hello there. I've noticed that you have redirected the individual medal pages to one large page dealing with all in one article. The trouble is that it is accepted practice on wikipedia that all medals should have their own individual article - they should not generally be aggregated together one one single page. I see that you have managed to add more detail on the medals though - thanks for that. As an interim measure I have restored the individual pages. If I don't manage to get around to it feel free to add the content to the individual articles. The German Occupation Medals page could then be amended to follow the form of something like the British campaign medals page.

Best wishes, Xdamrtalk 02:07, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:SyldaviaFlag.png

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:SyldaviaFlag.png. 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. Jusjih (talk) 22:56, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tuva flag

Hi, I see that a while ago you uploaded the image of the post-1926 flag of the Tuvan people's republic (on the right). I think there might be something wrong with the second word (the one on the lower left). It reads Nayaramdaqu, but should probably read Nayiramdaqu. That is, the fourth stroke to the left should be a bit longer (If it's difficult to find out what I mean: the first two strokes ('n' and 'a') are short, then comes a longer stroke ('y'), then the short stroke that should be longer (is 'a', but sould be 'i'), then comes a downward hook ('r')). I am actually not 100% sure (maybe 85%) whether Nayaramdakh is really wrong, but maybe you have a way to check. Regards, Yaan (talk) 18:18, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Text.PNG

Thanks for uploading Image:Text.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 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 (talk) 09:59, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
