[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, RobiH, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

In response to your recent edits to Videocipher, I wanted to leave you a note and help you understand some of our image policies. I know that they can be difficult for newcomers to understand.

First of all, any images that are under copyright are considered fair use, which is now frequently called "Non-free". The use of those images must comply with the Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. Criteria 10c requires a rationale for each use (see Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline for more information). The rationale explains why this use of the image meets the criteria. The images you've added to Videocipher do not have a rationale for their use on the page, and it would be extremely difficult to write one based on criteria 3a (minimal use) and the original reason that I removed them, criteria 8 (significance).

I would be happy to try to answer any questions you have about our image policies.

Again, welcome!  ~ BigrTex 16:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
