Picture

Please refrain from changing the image at the Shrine of the Bab, the image you are adding is from an awkward angle, which not only is not aesthetically pleasing, but distorts the view of the bulding, which is non encyclopaedic. -- Jeff3000 19:36, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Shrine of the Bab

Thanks for your additions to the page; they have bettered it considerably; however, citations are missing for your added comments. If multiple statements come from the same book, you can use one citation for the whole paragraph. Can you use the <ref> and {{cite book}} templates to cite your added material. If you need help you can look at other pages like the Baha'i Faith page to see how that is done, and you can also ask me. Regards, -- Jeff3000 02:12, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

The Media bank images cannot be used as they are not completely free images as per Wikipedia's definition. Images have to be released under the GFDL or cc-by-sa licences to qualify as free. In cases where free images cannnot be found then images can be used under fair use but buildings that still exist cannot be used as fair-use in Wikipedia as per the fair use critera. If you have your own photos that you want to release under the GFDL or cc-by-sa licence (I would release under both (see Image:Ncci.JPG for an image that is released under both)) then you should upload the photos to commons.wikimedia.org and place them in the Shrine of the Bab category (see here). In my mind the current image is just fine (high-quality is not really an issue here, because everyone sees the image as 150px wide), but upload some pictures there and if there is a better one we can change it to that newer picture. Also remember to sign your comments on the talk pages with ~~~~ (it inserts your signature). Regards, -- Jeff3000 04:59, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:UnityinDiversityatHOB.JPG

Thank you for uploading File:UnityinDiversityatHOB.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 file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:06, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
