Fair use rationale for Image:GTSlogo.gif
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:GTSlogo.gif. 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. PxMa 19:44, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Feedback archived
editHi there.
A while ago, you requested feedback in WP:FEED. Because it has been a while, and you'd received at least some response there, I have now archived the replies in Wikipedia:Requests for feedback/Archive/27. Please do not edit that page though; if you require further feedback, add a new request on WP:FEED.
I am trying to clear the backlogs; it would help us a lot if you could look at the requests from other users on WP:FEED and add any comments to help them out. Anyone can respond there, so please do take a look, and comment on the articles from other people.
If you want help with anything at all, you could either;
- Leave a message on my own talk page;
OR
- Use a {{helpme}} - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put {{helpme}}, and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~~~~ at the end;
OR
- Talk to us live, with this or this.
The last of those is particularly useful - please try it; pop in now and say hello. Best, Chzz ► 19:40, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Jimhill10. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. [1][2] MrOllie (talk) 18:49, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will abide by the posting requirements. I still do manage Roadside Tribute but since ads have only generated like $0.99 over the past three years we are no longer running ads to support the site. I built the site with several purposes including improving road safety as I'm a mechanical engineer with a background in automotive design. I also built it to all people to share their roadside tribute pictures as a safer way to grieve instead of dangerously visiting busy roadside locations along highways. I did this without a profit motive and invested about $30k of my own money and time so far. There is a company in California working on a documentary and the roadsidetribute.com site is going to be included along with interviews with me. So with these things in mind, can I link the article to the web site? Jimhill10 (talk) 19:45, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- All that sounds like a good and worthy cause, but Wikipedia isn't a link directory and we generally don't act as one even for worthy causes - MrOllie (talk) 20:07, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
