[edit] WikiProject Hawaii and the Arts

Wmpearl, do you have any interest in helping WP:HAWAII improve Hawaii-related articles in the category of the arts? If you do, please let me know, because I would like your help in organizing arts and entertainment related articles and bringing them to featured article standard. The first step would be to tag all the articles in that category (by adding a task force to the project template), and when we have a listing, identifying the most important ones for the project to focus on and improve. I would hope we could depend on your guidance and expertise. Please let me know. —Viriditas | Talk 05:33, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the offer, but I must decline. Wmpearl 02:17, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

That's fine, but as these articles fall under the scope of the Hawaii WikiProjects, and as we follow the appropriate Wikipedia guidelines and policies, I must ask you to stop tendentiously changing the image sizes and headings in violation of those guidelines. —Viriditas | Talk
Please do not continue to tendentiously restore large images, long headings, and remove top sorted categories. —Viriditas | Talk 04:15, 28 July 2007 (UTC)






[edit] Unspecified source for Image:'The Young Sophocles Leading the Chorus of Victory after the Battle of Salamis', sculpture by John Talbott Donoghue c. 1889.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:'The Young Sophocles Leading the Chorus of Victory after the Battle of Salamis', sculpture by John Talbott Donoghue c. 1889.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 04:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. TCC (talk) (contribs) 04:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

To be a little more explicit than the boilerplate text, it's not clear that this photograph of a sculpture is public domain, which it has to be if the copyright tags are correct. {{PD-art}} only applies to 2D works. So we have to have the source of this photo. TCC (talk) (contribs) 04:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Untitled gouache on paper by Alexander Calder, 1967, --Honolulu Academy of Arts--.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Untitled gouache on paper by Alexander Calder, 1967, --Honolulu Academy of Arts--.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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:20, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] License tagging for Image:Untitled 1960 welded steel, canvas and wire sculpture by Lee Bontecou, 43 x 51 in.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Untitled 1960 welded steel, canvas and wire sculpture by Lee Bontecou, 43 x 51 in.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. 01:10, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Publicity photo of --Ken Little-- with bronze masks, 1988.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Publicity photo of --Ken Little-- with bronze masks, 1988.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes 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 non-free media 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:'Evolutionary_Phases',_linen_work_by_--Diane_Itter--,_1979,_12.25_inches,_--Metropolitan_Museum_of_Art--.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:'Evolutionary_Phases',_linen_work_by_--Diane_Itter--,_1979,_12.25_inches,_--Metropolitan_Museum_of_Art--.jpg. I noticed 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 {{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 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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  But|seriously|folks  07:43, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Masami_Teraoka,_publicity_photo.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Masami_Teraoka,_publicity_photo.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. Rettetast (talk) 21:52, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:'Homage_to_Piranesi_V',_copper_sculpture_by_,1965-6,_National_Gallery_of_Art_(Washington,_D._C.).jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:'Homage_to_Piranesi_V',_copper_sculpture_by_,1965-6,_National_Gallery_of_Art_(Washington,_D._C.).jpg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:'Fishpond, Kahaluu, lithograph by Alexander Samuel MacLeod.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:'Fishpond, Kahaluu, lithograph by Alexander Samuel MacLeod.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:'The Prophet', woodcut by Emil Nolde, 1912.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:'The Prophet', woodcut by Emil Nolde, 1912.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Untitled gouache on paper by Alexander Calder, 1967, --Honolulu Academy of Arts--.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Untitled gouache on paper by Alexander Calder, 1967, --Honolulu Academy of Arts--.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. BJBot (talk) 12:02, 8 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Freer Gallery of Art

Is Freer Gallery of Art releasing the free image which you uploaded to commons? It looks like a photo taken by a professional photographer, and the work is 3D. I highly doubt that it is from the U.S governmental site such as U.S congress. Where did you get the image anyhow?--Appletrees (talk) 22:09, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Yea, I know that the museum is a part of the Smithonian, national museum, but how can we be sure of that the photo is a taken by a photographer affiliated with the institution? The museum is specializing in Asian art and if you're right, related articles would've had the photos from the official website of the museum. But as you see porcelain, the photos from the museum are not as much great as the photo you uploaded, because they are released by editors here not by professionals. I still think that your uploading is a violation of copyright law. --Appletrees (talk) 22:24, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
