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

Thanks for uploading Image:BlackWatch.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 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. BetacommandBot 19:57, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DukeEllington_TakeTheATrain.ogg

Thanks for uploading Image:DukeEllington_TakeTheATrain.ogg. 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. ShakespeareFan00 09:42, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New stub

Hi there,

I noticed you created United Kingdom local elections, 2008 today and tagged it with election-stub. I just wanted to inform you that election-stub has been sorted and is now sorted by continent with some countries receiving their own stubs. United Kingdom local elections, 2008 is now tagged with UK-election-stub. Cheers--Thomas.macmillan 01:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Missing image Image:GWBushEntebbe.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:GWBushEntebbe.jpg, by Strangerer, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:GWBushEntebbe.jpg is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:GWBushEntebbe.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:GWBushEntebbe.jpg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 18:43, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:CharlieParker_YardbirdSuite.ogg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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.

[edit] Image:EriyaKategaya.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:EriyaKategaya.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 that provides substantially the same information. 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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, 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.

[edit] Two images

Greetings, TreveX. I am notifying you that I have tagged two audio samples you uploaded as candidates for speedy deletion. I believe that Image:Rach2Movement1.ogg and Image:Rach3Movement1.ogg could be replaced by free audio, and am encouraged by the list of freely-licensed recordings at Sergei Rachmaninoff#Rachmaninoff as composer. The following is a standard message that conveys the relevant information better than I could.

[edit] Speedy deletion of Lárus List

A tag has been placed on Lárus List requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

[edit] Patti Solis Doyle

Specifically, under WP:NFC, "Pictures of people still alive, groups still active, and buildings still standing; provided that taking a new free picture as a replacement (which is almost always considered possible) would serve the same encyclopedic purpose as the non-free image. However, for some retired or disbanded groups, or retired individuals whose notability rests in large part on their earlier visual appearance, a new picture may not serve the same purpose as an image taken during their career." Patti Solis Doyle is currently living, unretired, active, and it is very plausible that a free image can be made. Your fair use rationale does not hold true among images for BLP articles. bibliomaniac15 18:41, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

I concede that I made a mistake in not looking at the history before deleting. If you can tell me why you disagree, I can undelete it if the request is reasonable and within policy. bibliomaniac15 22:16, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:19, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:PortilloEnfieldSouthgate.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:PortilloEnfieldSouthgate.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. One Night In Hackney303 06:24, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Blackburn

Hello there TreveX!

Just a note that I have reviewed Blackburn and placed it on hold pending some challenges I've set. I'd love to see this article pass, but it's quite some way off at the moment. I hope my feedback is helpful. --Jza84 |  Talk  16:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

No problem at all! I really enjoyed much of the article but was a tiny bit disappointed with some parts, particularly the lack of coverage on Blackburn's industrial heritage. I wrote the greater part of the Oldham article and make no pretence that I was (and still am) looking for a comparable article in Blackburn (the two are very simillar towns).
I've had a look on Geograph and Flickr for a good "lead" image, but have struggled, so that might still be something on your shoulders for now. Other sources that might help may include:
  1. R.D.W. Young (1998-2008). Civic Heraldry of England and Wales - Lancashire. civicheraldry.co.uk. Retrieved on 2008-04-16. - to verify the coat of arms stuff.
  2. Spinning The Web - Blackburn. spinningtheweb.org.uk. Retrieved on 2008-04-16. - to help with the industrial history.
  3. Cotton Town: Your Town, Your History. cottontown.org. Retrieved on 2008-04-16. - as above.
  4. 'Townships: Blackburn'. british-history.ac.uk. Retrieved on 2008-04-16. - for the history of Blackburn.
  5. A Vision of BLACKBURN. visionofbritain.org.uk. Retrieved on 2008-04-16. - as above.
I hope these help. I've placed the article on hold for one week, though there's alot to do before this meets GA in my opinion. If enough progress is made (and I will help where I can), I'll extend the period of review for another week. I'd love to see this article pass. WP:UKCITIES is probably the best place to start for ideas on content though. If we can get all the content in place, we can worry about NPOV stuff later. Glad you found the feedback helpful though. --Jza84 |  Talk  15:34, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

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.
