Image licensing edit

I don't want to WP:BITE, but next time you try to release someone else's copyrighted work into the public domain, I'm speedying it. Please read up on Image use more carefully before uploading another image. Thanks.--SarekOfVulcan 22:55, 10 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

That image was not copyrighted. Punk-Lova 22:58, 10 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi, User:Punk-Lova. A claim that the image of a recently-released book cover is not copyrighted is pretty difficult to believe. Does the book come from a publisher involved in some radical new approach to licensing, or is it possible that you may be confused about United States copyright law? In either case, without any evidence to the contrary, User:SarekOfVulcan is quite right that we cannot accept images that have no copyright information. Thanks for understanding.

There is an image tag used for book cover images {{bookcover}}. It says that the image is (or is presuemed to be) copyrighted by the publisher of the book, but it may be used under Fair use in an article about the book. Book cover images should normally be tagged this way and used only on articels about the book, or possibly on articles about the artist who created the cover. It is very rare for a commercially published book cover not to be under copyright at the time of publication. DES (talk) 23:41, 10 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
There are pictures of book covers on book articles such as Harry Potter and Narnia, so I don't see why you threaten me and not them.Punk-Lova 16:26, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
Bad example. Note that Image:Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.jpg has the bookcover template which you just tried to remove from the bookcovers you uploaded. --SarekOfVulcan 18:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
Then why don't you go and bother them instead of me. Anyway, I just edit in Wikipedia so people can find articles and get information, and if you want me to leave, then I will and who ever wants to read what I would have written will just have to wait untill someone else writes it. Punk-Lova 16:31, 12 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
Ummm... why should I go bother them when they did it the right way? And nobody said that they wanted you to leave, just that you need to follow the rules here.--SarekOfVulcan 19:08, 12 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

I had to deleted the chapter artwork of Dumbledore, because you had licensed it wrongly by tagging it under book cover, also in Harry Potter articles, there should be no chapter art used because it's not considered cannon: It's only shown in the American editions of the books and there is no licensing tag available for chapter art. I know you are new, so am I. If you want to know what types of licensing tags can be used go to the Tagging Images section of the Fair Use page. - Phnx2ashes 18:41, 22 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Userboxes edit

Might be easier to use the templates than replicating the wiki markup.

Thanks, that really helps Punk-Lova 03:52, 21 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
My pleasure. It's hard to know how to find your way around here sometimes... --SarekOfVulcan 03:56, 21 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries edit

Hi Punk-Lova!

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

 

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 19:49, 21 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unspecified source for Image:Ootp10.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Ootp10.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 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 22:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 22:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Harry Potter roll-call edit


Hi there. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Harry Potter participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. Your name has therefore been moved to a "potentially inactive" list. If you still consider yourself an active WikiProject Harry Potter editor, please move your name from the Potentially inactive list to the Active Contributors list. You may also wish to add {{User WP Harry Potter}} to your userpage, if you haven't done so already. Conversely, if you do not wish to be considered a member of the WikiProject, leave your name where it is and it will be moved to the Inactive Contributors section. If you wish to make a clean break with the Project you may move your name to the Known to have left section. Many thanks.
