[edit] Image Tagging Image:Morl bandpage.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Morl bandpage.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. --Secretlondon 23:35, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Writer's rules of engagement

Please remember to be civil in dealing with other editors. Comments like "get a life" are considered unneccessarily rude. Friday (talk) 16:08, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletions

There's no need to get upset about articles being deleted. Contrary to what people may think, Wikipedia is not meant to contain any and all information. A frequently repeated quote is "Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information". See what Wikipedia is not for more info. For things like bands or companies, there are guidelines for inclusion, see WP:MUSIC and WP:CORP. Friday (talk) 22:14, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Just so you know

I did some changes to your Duke Spirit page. You can see the difference here. Feel free to revert it if you want. Keep being a good wikipedian. Edward Nygma 16:24, 31 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image Tagging Image:Dukes.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Dukes.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified 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 media 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. 82.83.98.101 15:59, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Femme fatale-fire baptism.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Femme fatale-fire baptism.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.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Duckwalk.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Duckwalk.jpg. 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) 21:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
