Fair use rationale for File:Hmcs-labrador-badge.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Hmcs-labrador-badge.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:12, 23 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

GO Transit stations and infoboxes edit

I've noticed a few recent changes you've made to GO station article infoboxes. I think you need to speak with User:Secondarywaltz, who has been working on a standardised infobox for station and line articles, and with whom I had a brief discussion about it at the beginning of the week.

Ontario transit connections edit

Thanks for trying to debug. I assume it's the slight extra space after the first entry. You come from BC, so do you think I should move this and the related colour definitions to "CAN transit connections" & "color" (or something), to make it national? Secondarywaltz (talk) 17:44, 27 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Bcndplogo2005.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Bcndplogo2005.png. 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).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
