[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Kilnerfig.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Kilnerfig.gif. 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. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:09, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alexander Gurwitsch or Gurvich

Hi, I really think that one surname needs to be chosen. The other can be a redirect, as it was before. Cheers Kevin (talk) 03:27, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

HEllo! Funny you should happen along. My experience is that the robot will sort this out in a few hours. I can help recognition by altering the page title a few more times. All the versions get linked and eventually the redirects get automated. Please do check in a day or two; I am just getting the page sorted out! I appreciate the feedback and of course please join in. Redheylin (talk) 03:53, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
What it also does though, is make the page history much more difficult to read. You can always create redirects directly from any other names or potential mis-spellings. Kevin (talk) 12:07, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Kevin, you've been editing much longer than I, and I'd appreciate your advice on this - ie "how?" The thing is; I followed the spelling I found in the text as I usually do, but today I looked at a couple of books I have and I found no "Gurwitsch" but only "Gurvich" and also, gawd'elpus, "Gurvitch". I am going to assess the relative importance of these via Google, but I can imagine us ending up with something like "A.G.Gurvitch (Gurvich, Gurwitsch)". This being the case, your advice on procedure would be valuable. Redheylin (talk) 19:44, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Gurwitsch is the most hit on Google by far, despite my books..... Redheylin (talk) 20:23, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Go to Wikipedia:Your_first_article#How_to_create_a_page, and type in the name you would like to redirect to the main article. In this case you could type A.G.Gurvitch. If the search finds no existing page then click the red create this page button and a new page is opened for editing. To make this a redirect page, click to #R button above the edit window, and then a space and a link to the main article, for example #REDIRECT [[Alexander Gurwitsch]]. Make sure that the redirect you are creating is a useful miss-spelling or alternate title. The redirect Alexander Gurwitsch or Gurvich probably isn't in this case. See Wikipedia:Redirect for the whole guideline on redirects.
Regarding which name is more appropriate, I would go with either Alexander Gurwitsch or Alexander Gurvich. For a non-controvertial topic I would go with whichever you feel is the more common usage. I think you've picked the first anyway.
If you have another article you feel needs redirects, and want some help then leave a message on my talk page. Cheers Kevin (talk) 23:42, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

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

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Anthropomorph.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. Sdrtirs (talk) 06:11, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
