[edit] License tagging for Image:Lemon-Lime.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Lemon-Lime.JPG. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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. 06:06, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Poppy4.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Poppy4.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 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. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 17:15, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your question
Hi Rissa... a few tips: 1) you leave the questions/comments/discussions on someone talk page, which is the discussion page of the user, just like I do here. 2) you always sign your comments with four times a "~" (without the "") and wikipedia will automatically connect your username to it.. and people can click back to your own talk page in this way :-) I will answer all questions below the questions comments given on my own discussion page.. and will get to it shortly.

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:Moonlight2.JPG. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Amaryllis Moonlight.JPG. The copy called Image:Amaryllis Moonlight.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.
This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 20:44, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
