Image copyright problem with Image:Blackmail-group.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Blackmail-group.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well. For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Fair use rationale for Image:Mac Os X.gif

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Mac Os X.gif. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. AlistairMcMillan 13:46, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Blackmail.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Blackmail.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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

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. 13:05, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Edit summaries

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. -- Funky Monkey  (talk)  15:29, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

User:Jimbo Wales comment

In general, discussion with a user is conducted on his talk page, specifically here that would be User talk:Jimbo Wales. I'm going to take the liberty of moving your request there. Hope that's all right. AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 13:54, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

SpongeBob SquarePants controversy

I reverted your edit to the SpongeBob SquarePants controversy article because it was vague and did not include a reference to back up the statement you made. The edit was in good faith--if you can find a reference and make the statement more specific feel free to add it. - Jared 12:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

My Unblock Statement

{{unblock| I AM INNOCENT, A NOOB ON WIKIPEDIA!!! I CAN HARDLY COMPREHEND THE REASON USERS AND/OR ADMINS BLOCK ME!! Please give me my freedom ASAP, Thank all of you!}} I swear if anybody, particularly someone named Huaiwei blocks me for any unevidential and/or nonsensical statement again, I'm takin' this case to Jimbo!

Unspecified source for Image:Vanessa Y!Music.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Vanessa Y!Music.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 14:57, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Substantial image problems

The images you are uploading are missing mandatory information. For copyrighted images, you need to identify the source, the copyright holder, provide an accurate license and reason for that license, and a detailed hand-written fair-use rationale for each use of the image. Please refrain from uploading any more images until you have gone back and added this information to all of the images you have already uploaded. Wikipedia takes image copyright and fair-use violations very seriously. Thanks. --Yamla 14:57, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Note specifically that if you use the promophoto tag, you need to provide some evidence that the image came from a promotional kit. --Yamla 14:58, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Your edit at Netherlands...

Why have you done this? I'm just wondering because Netherlands (nl:Nederland) is not the same as the Kingdom of the Netherlands (nl:Koninkrijk der Nederlanden), it is only the European part. —MC 17:19, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

STOP!

STOP! Please do not remove tags from pages, particularly images, without resolving the underlying problem. An example of this is your recent edits to Image:Vanessa Y!Music.jpg where you removed the fair-use disputed tag without providing the mandatory detailed fair-use rationale, and where you removed the no source tag without providing a specific source. --Yamla 14:46, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Signature

Hi Suduser85! My best advice would be for you to read the page advice about customised signatures and then visit the how to fix your signature page, which has helpful advice about how to do it and where. Hope this helps. ➨ ЯEDVERS 08:50, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Regarding the SpongeBob WikiProject

Attention, member of Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants. This project is up for deletion at this page. ForestH2 has become a sockpuppeter and is being blocked from Wikipedia. So, he will most likely not return. (along with his sockpuppets.) The board of the project has been very controversal. I am removing the board (as it is contoversal and wont really matter) as a result. This project can improve if it can undergo clean-up (which i am in the process of) But, most of all, it needs to be kept. So, I hope you can support this project from its time of inactivity and save it from deletion, then we can continue to improve SpongeBob SquarePants articles. I would hope that you would support with me, but please voice your opinion by clicking here: Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants. Thank-you. -AMK152 17:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:SpongeSeason 3.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:SpongeSeason 3.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Fair use rationale

You said: "Hello there, I would just like to inform you that I have added the fair use rationales for the respective images that you mentioned. If there is anything wrong, please reply on my talk page. However, there is user named Zany zacky that I would like to report about. He is repeatedly using wikipedia as an advertising service to create SpongeBob DVD articles and he's directly copying text from websites where the DVD is sold. You're an admin, so you deal with these matters, because he is really confusing the members of the SpongeBob WikiProject of which I am as well, so please help us out here. Thanks!"

I see you do, Suduser85. Thank you very much, your efforts are much appreciated. I'm sorry I didn't respond to your email, life has been rather hectic recently. Anyway, I'll take a look at the user you mention. --Yamla 14:41, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Firefox browser

Hi Suduser85! No problems that I can see via Firefox 1.5.0.7 on Windows, and I haven't noticed any problem via the slightly earlier version I use on OSX.

Things to try:

First, clear your cache, close Firefox, reopen and try the page again. A corrupt cache can cause all sorts of problems.

Next, a quick test - can you run Firefox in its Safe Mode? Here's how. Then visit the broken pages. If they're still broken, then there's probably a bug. If they're not broken, then your browser is and you'll need to uninstall (not just disable) all your extensions and themes and then add them back one at a time until the page breaks again. The last one added was the one that did it.

Finally, try searching Bugzilla for the symptoms, in case anyone has reported similar issues. If no one has, report it yourself but be very specific (screenshots are handy, exact articles and URLS are a must). You'll be asked to do the two things above, so make sure you do them first!

HTH! ➨ ЯEDVERS 16:07, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the advice, But I seem to have miscalculated. The problem runs in my entire home network, even on my hp notebook that uses Internet Explorer. Anyways thanks for the help, Its not Firefox thats the problem.(SUDUSER)⁸⁵ 04:54, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

November 2006

November's already started. I suppose everything's going well for me, and hopefully everyone else, here on Wikipedia. Well I am still pretty pissed off because I did not recieve much of the welcome wagon. But that's a small thing. Still I wish everyone well here, have fun on Wikipedia and explore it. Happy Editing!!

Image:The Rasmus.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:The Rasmus.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Chowbok ☠ 16:56, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Rockwood.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Rockwood.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. Fritz S. (Talk) 14:14, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Removal of my suggestion

I would like your opinion about the notion that I was "spamming" you by leaving you a message on your Talk page (which was, in turn, deleted by another user who determined it to be spam). Please comment, if you'd like, under my question for the folks at WikiProject Spam. Seems to me that they're going a bit too far censoring Wikipedia users from even TALKING to each other on a Talk page, if there's an external link involved.
