Use of nonfree images

edit

Greetings! I have removed Image:Hilarysnakecharmer.jpg from its placement in Stranger (Hilary Duff song). Because the image is copyrighted, it cannot be used without a rationale of fair use. There is no such rationale on the page, nor do I see how an image that "fueled rumors" is essential to the article. Feel free to provide a rationale and replace the image after doing so, of course. Regards, —C.Fred (talk) 23:27, 30 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading Image:Cover My Struggle.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Hilarysnakecharmer.jpg)

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Hilarysnakecharmer.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 08:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

AfD nomination of !dea Star Singer

I've nominated !dea Star Singer, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that !dea Star Singer satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/!dea Star Singer and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of !dea Star Singer during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion.

Fair use rationale for Image:WhoopiBonoCameo.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:WhoopiBonoCameo.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.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Extrascover1.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Degan Elementary School, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Degan Elementary School is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Degan Elementary School, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

AfD nomination of Vonzell Solomon

edit
 

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Vonzell Solomon. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vonzell Solomon. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:21, 29 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

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.
