[edit] License tagging for Image:Brent barry.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Brent barry.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands 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. 02:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:L bird.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:L bird.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:09, 8 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 19:09, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LeMay Enterprise

Information on any subject in Wikipedia must be verifiable from reliable sources that are independent of the subject. That's why I keep adding the tag. LeMay Enterprise's own website, or the LeMay museum website, are obviously not independent of the subject of the article. Accounts of the business in newspapers, books, or magazines would be helpful here. Pan Dan 23:51, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LeMay

I've looked for sources on LeMay Enterprise and have come up empty, so I'm likely to tag that article for deletion soon. However, LeMay Museum seems to have attracted attention from independent publications[1], so an article on the museum just might be doable. Pan Dan 12:31, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Harold LeMay article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Natalie 17:38, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
