Image copyright problem with Image:St.phillips in dyker heights.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:St.phillips in dyker heights.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 00:58, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Image:Brigadier General René Edward De Russy.jpg

Nevermind the bot warning: the image is in the public domain because it's over 100 years old. Note however that I have created the short article René Edward De Russy to put there the content you had placed in the image's summary. It would help though if you could

1. Include in the image summary the source from which you got this image;
2. Include a few references in the article about De Russy.

Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 17:29, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello again. Please do not remove the {{unref}} tag from the article before adding proper references. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 06:31, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Dyker Heights

Statements like "the community should recognize those who have preserved Dyker Heights’ historic houses through the years" is clearly an opinion. Wikipedia articles are made of facts that can be shown by citing sources. Please see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view for more on this subject. CitiCat ^♫ 00:27, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:1919 20 2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:1919 20 2.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:11, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

New York Times

Nice that you take credit for writing the entire Wikipedia article in the Times, but the article is still a complete mess by Wikipedia standards. Ironically, the Times article seems to have brought other editors attention to the Wikipedia page, and hopefully it will start to be cleaned up. CitiCat ^♫ 23:36, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Dyker Beach Golf Course Catering Hall Great Room.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Dyker Beach Golf Course Catering Hall Great Room.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:26, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Copyright of File:Joe Rollino 01.jpg

You claimed on upload of File:Joe Rollino 01.jpg that you are the copyright holder, but you also listed a source of http://weightlifting.org/honorees/img27.jpg. Did you actually take that photo in 1925?  Frank  |  talk  14:46, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

I doubt it - and http://weightlifting.org/ shows a clear copyright notice, hence the speedy deletion tag referenced below. – ukexpat (talk) 15:43, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Joe Rollino 01.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Joe Rollino 01.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ukexpat (talk) 15:41, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Scott Baio, 1977, 80th street 10th ave, SE corner.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Scott Baio, 1977, 80th street 10th ave, SE corner.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the photographer (creator/author) of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

As you state the photographer is "unknown" you will need to find any record the Dyker Heights Historical Society has for the image and send an email from an address associated with them to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating their ownership via, either, a Work for hire contract or by copyright transfer from the original photographer and their intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you can locate the photographer who took the image than have them take the steps listed above.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Replaceable fair use File:Coffey Square Dyker Heights.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Coffey Square Dyker Heights.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 or which could be adequately covered with text alone. 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. Skier Dude (talk 04:27, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
