[edit] CoCo Lee - Song in movie

Hi! You left a query on my talk page back in November which, I am sorry, I have only just noticed! I do apologize! Now, about CoCo's singing of "DiDaDi" in the movie Master of Everything - I have not seen this movie, so I had assumed that you were simply saying that she did a bad job as an actress (which is an opinion value judgment). However, it seems that CoCo was required, by the role, to sing badly, and that she did a 'good' job of singing her own song badly. If this is what is intended, then maybe we could add to the sentence which reads: In character in this movie she sang one of her own hit songs, "Di-Da-Di", which was a cover of Maria Montell's "And So The Story Goes". - If we added a further sentence here which reads: The role required CoCo to sing her own song badly, which she performed effectively despite her own singing talent. Does that seem to convey the meaning you had intended? Thanks for your interest - and also your patience! -- Ishel99 14:49, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

I have just added the sentence I suggested - but feel free to amend it if it's not quite what you meant still. Thanks for your interest! -- Ishel99 09:46, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Bruce Rockwitz - I would say he would also be of potential interest to people interested in the world of business and finance, so if you have stuff on him why not start an article? Maybe label it as a stub if there's not much... -- Ishel99 14:14, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Mi-Jung_Lee.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mi-Jung_Lee.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 on Wikipedia 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. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 15:03, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Natasha Henstridge

No need to introduce that category into the Natasha Henstridge page, she's already listed as belonging to one or more child categories.  :) --Yamla 16:11, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Mi-Jung_Lee.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Mi-Jung_Lee.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rettetast (talk) 22:08, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Use of Image:Mi-Jung_Lee.jpg

I emailed a PR person at BCTV and asked about using images from their website and his reply was to go ahead and post them on Wikipedia. However, since Wikipedia seems to want more than an informal go ahead of this nature, I asked him to pass along my request to their legal folks. As they haven't replied with anything more formal, I chose to let the image be deleted. If/when they *do* reply, or I get enthused enough to follow up directly, the image may re-appear, as could other images for bios of BCTV personalities. Southsloper (talk) 21:06, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
