[edit] Conflicts of interest

I should also add that editing articles about yourself or companies you work for is generally frowned upon. The information you included on WKPS is useful but in need of editing to remove bias: I will take a clean wack at it. Take a look at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, and in any case, welcome!

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:WKPS FM LU.gif

An image that you uploaded, Image:WKPS FM LU.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Unless the creator released the work under GFDL, or you are the creator of the work, including the image on Wikipedia is a copyright violation. Hope this helps, GChriss <always listening><c> 03:11, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

I should also add that it is possible to make a fair use justification, but I don't think that would be appropriate in this case. Out of curiosity, what is SkyView? GChriss <always listening><c> 03:19, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Aw logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Aw logo.gif. 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) 06:53, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Burnie Thompson

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Burnie Thompson, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rtphokie (talk) 19:52, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
