[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Scandinavian Flick.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Scandinavian Flick.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 23:55, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:TopGear Cow-on-Roof.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:TopGear Cow-on-Roof.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. There may be other Top Gear images uploaded by you that have also been tagged as orphaned. See Talk:List of Top Gear episodes for my rationale for removing the images from the article.

[edit] North American railway signaling

You have made several significant edits to the North American railway signaling article in the past few weeks. This includes removing text, changing/restructuring sections and adding/modifying text. Would you please explain why you have made these edits. None of them have verifiable source references, which is required under Wikipedia policy (see WP:REF). Without references, these edits are considered as original research, which is not allowed (see WP:OR). The Wikipedia community trusts that your edits are made in good faith. However, if references are not added to the article to substantiate the changes within 10 days (by September 28, 2007), they will be reverted under WP:OR. Truthanado 01:36, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding some references. More references are always appreciated. Remember that Wikipedia requires references, even when the text is written by a subject-matter expert. Best of luck in your future edits. Truthanado 03:04, 30 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Jeremy Crash.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Jeremy Crash.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 18:25, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
