March 2021 edit

  Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia, especially your edits to Macintosh. This is just a note to tell you how notifications work on this site. The most common way editors will receive notifications is when you edit a user's talk page, or you properly use the {{Reply to}} template (instructions for which can be found here). Just make sure you don't over-use notifications and to always follow the talk page guidelines!

In order to change your own notification settings, please click here. For help fixing failed pings, refer to this how-to-guide. If you have any questions about this, you may like to consult the FAQ or are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. –MJLTalk 17:17, 16 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Non-free rationale for File:Jon Rubinstein.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Jon Rubinstein.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 14:40, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to John Sculley. Ashleyyoursmile! 03:15, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use File:Dan Riccio.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Dan Riccio.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:00, 20 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Images of living people edit

Non-free images of living people are almost inevitably deleted under WP:NFCCP#1 because the policy states Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created (my emphasis) so while you have tried to find a free image of people and failed, unless you can establish that it's not possible anyone to create a free image of the subject, the images are going to fail this criterion of the non-free content criteria. Also, note that free images should be kept small respect WP:NFCCP#3b so if images you upload are reduced in size by someone else it is normally for good reason and it's advisable not to revert the reduction. Wikipedia policy on non-free content is, deliberately, very proscriptive to keep the amount of non-free content as low as possible and can be a minefield for new editors to get to grips with so none of the above is criticism of your actions just explanation as to why events e.g. deletion have occurred.
