[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Hillsborough_High_School,_Tampa,_Florida.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hillsborough_High_School,_Tampa,_Florida.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 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.
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you have questions about copyright tagging of images, post on Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags or User talk:Carnildo/images. 07:28, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
It should be noted that the image in question does not qualify for copyright, as it is a image of a government-owned facility.

[edit] Speedy deletion warning for East Bay High School article
A tag has been placed on East Bay High School, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable (see the guidelines for notability here). If you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.
Please read the criteria for speedy deletion (specifically, articles #7) and our general biography criteria. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] School articles
Hi Tampa Gator,
There's been some discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Monroe Middle School, which you created, that editors (including me) are willing to do mass deletions of non-high school articles with little information in them. It's been mentioned that you've created a lot of those articles in the Tampa area, and it seems to me that many could be up for deletion if they're still stubs. Please take a look at that discussion and consider sharing your thoughts in it. Your perspective would be useful as Wikipedians try to form a consensus on schools (there's a wide range of opinions).

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:-Album Cover- Dolores O'Riordan - Are You Listening -Front-.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:-Album Cover- Dolores O'Riordan - Are You Listening -Front-.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
