License tagging for Image:Matsui.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Matsui.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. 00:07, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

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

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Matsui.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 01:01, 8 August 2007 (UTC)Reply


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Sosai3.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Sosai3.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 07:41, 15 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Rena Rusty Kanokogi

edit

Your recent edit to Order of the Rising Sun was a good step in a constructive direction; but at this stage of the article's development, it seems prudent to limit supplementary names to those who are already profiled in a Wikipedia article and whose decoration can be confirmed by a citation from a reliable source. As you can see for yourself, I've temporarily relocated Ms. Kanokgi's name to the talk page until someone gets around to creating an article about this important figure in American judo. In my view, there is no question that this name will enhance the quality of the article and its accompanying lists.

At some point in the near future, I don't doubt that Rena Rusty Kanokogi will become a welcome complement to the names already listed. If I weren't already a little over-burdened with on-going projects, I'd develop this article myself. --Tenmei (talk) 02:10, 8 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
