Images[edit]

Hello. Welcome again! I just wanted to give you a heads up on the images you are uploading. It seems you are using a fair use tag. The fair use rationale is a complicated thing. But a good ground rule is that if you can make the same or similar image yourself or find it in a free source you can not use the fair use rationale. In any case you have to state on the image page where you found it or if you made it yourself. Otherwise the images will be deleted fairly soon and your work will be wasted. If you need any help please ask me. Inge 10:10, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You are now using a tag guaranteeing the images will be delted in a week...Inge 10:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed your images are being deleted. They were very nice so I hoped we could have kept them. If you have taken them yourself or know that they are not owned by anyone maybe you could upload them under the appropriate license. If you don't know which one to choose maybe I can help?Inge 11:21, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Ferkingfarm.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Ferkingfarm.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then you need to specify who owns the copyright, please. If you got it from a website, then a link to the website where it was taken from with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:59, 16 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Valentinian ^{(talk) / (contribs)} 12:59, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is not enough that a copyright symbol is not used in the leaflet. We need to know the name of the leaflet, who published it and when, and who made the original image and when. If the drawing is more than 100 years old, there will normally not be any copyrights. If it is younger than this, it will very likely still be copyrighted. Regards.

Image copyright problem with Image:Håkonshallen.JPG[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:Håkonshallen.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you created this image yourself, please look at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#For image creators, select one of those tags, and add it to the image. To do that, simply go to Image:Håkonshallen.JPG, click "edit this page", and add the appropriate tag. Be sure to remove the current tag indicating a lack of licensing!

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. —An gr 13:33, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Logo snohetta.gif[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Logo snohetta.gif. 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) 17:03, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Ferkingstad.gif[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Ferkingstad.gif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Gavia immer (talk) 22:28, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
