[edit] Imperial Show Bands

Did you mean to create two pages: The Imperial Show Band‎ and Imperial Show Band‎? If so, on the one you think we shouldn't keep, put {{db-author}} on the top of the page and an administrator will delete it. (John User:Jwy talk) 01:45, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, the histories should probably be merged, and whichever isn't where the article content is should be a redirect to the other article. I'll report it at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen
In the future, to "rename" an article please use the Move tab instead of cut&paste. That said, based on WP:NC#Avoid the definite article ("the") and the indefinite article ("a"/"an") at the beginning of the page name and Google "the" vs Google no "the I think there's a strong argument that Imperial Show Band is the better name.

Since only the original author and myself (the only other editor of the page) approved of the removal, I didn't think this would be a problem. (John User:Jwy talk) 04:46, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
I don't know about using "The" for this specific group, but WP:NC states that bands that use "The" (on their published recordings and/or website) should use it at the beginning of the article name. Closenplay 12:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:AJackson.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:AJackson.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. 08:05, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Carsonstudio.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Carsonstudio.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}} 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 21:38, 29 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 21:38, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
