Secular antireligious violence edit

Hi. I saw a comment you made at Talk:State atheism#The part about the French Revolution is false, the last part of which said, "It's interesting how we have a wealth of information on various articles that argues the association of religion and violence yet any evidence associating atheism with any sort of violence is usually dismissed." That didn't seem to be on point for that discussion and I didn't want to respond to that comment there and defocus that discussion. Also, though I do have some vague interest in this area it's not something I'd likely spend much time on. Your comment did get my interest enough, though, to get me digging around a bit. One thing which I came up with was a WP article section on Religious violence#Secular violence with cite-supported information bearing on your comment. I thought you might be interested. Cheers.

Replaceable fair use File:Sdpconference.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Sdpconference.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 19:50, 30 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:FF2 Mateus.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:FF2 Mateus.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:38, 21 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
