Image Tagging Image:The command carrier .jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:The command carrier .jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by going to "Your contributions" from your user page and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thanks so much. --Sherool (talk) 21:30, 21 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

The above also apply to Image:Frag cannon.jpg, Image:Pulse rifle weapon.jpg, Image:Pulse weapon.jpg, Image:Mini weapkn.jpg, Image:Mini weapon.jpg, Image:Prowler.jpg, Image:Maruader.jpg, Image:Vigi.jpg and Image:Maruader2.jpg. --Sherool (talk) 21:59, 21 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

Images again. edit

Hi, I see you have included sources for the images this time, wich is good (would help if you could be more spesific though, I could not find most of the images on the sites you pointed to). However they also need a proper copyright tag as soon as possible. Otherwise they will share the fate with the first batch of pictures (please read the instructions on the upload page!). Thanks. --Sherool (talk) 16:32, 21 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Hello? Anyone there? For the umpthenth (ok third) time you need to include both copyright tags and source when you upload images. I'm not just making this up you know, it's right there on the upload page : "Users who upload content with false license declarations, or who repeatedly upload images with no license declaration, may be blocked." (emphasis mine). I'm refering to Image:Lolafarscape).jpg, Image:Moyain starburst.jpg and Image:Transport pod farscape back.jpg that you uploaded today. Please add apropriate copyright tags in the future, ok? It's not that complicated, most of the Farscape stuff is presumably screenshots from the show ({{tv-screenshot}}), fanart and photos of props and models and such are more complicated, but if you are unsure ask. uploading with no license info is not the solution. --Sherool (talk) 03:12, 29 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Image copyright problem with Image:Command_Carrier.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Command_Carrier.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or ask for help at Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. Thank you. -- Carnildo 05:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Magnum17x. Sorry, I may have messed up one of your image files -and I couldn't revert it. Sorry for any trouble you are caused in correcting my error. Bob BScar23625 19:06, 20 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:Hangar full of slipfighters.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Hangar full of slipfighters.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:08, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Sebacean edit

 

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Sebacean, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Gavin Collins 20:49, 1 October 2007 (UTC)Reply


No fair use rational on Image:Frag cannon rifle.jpg edit

 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Frag cannon rifle.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Frag cannon rifle.jpg is an unfree image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days (CSD I6).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Frag cannon rifle.jpg, 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Frag cannon rifle.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Frag cannon rifle.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. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 10:02, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Carole Ashby edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Carole Ashby, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://us.imdb.com/Name?Ashby,+Carole+(I). For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:45, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Carole Ashby edit

 

A tag has been placed on Carole Ashby requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —BradV 21:13, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Louise ('Allo 'Allo!) edit

 

The article Louise ('Allo 'Allo!) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

None notable article, very minor character.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
