File permission problem with File:Robert de Gresle statue at Manchester Town Hall.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Robert de Gresle statue at Manchester Town Hall.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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-en@wikimedia.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-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} 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 in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Dylsss^{(talk contribs)} 00:19, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Robert de Gresle statue at Manchester Town Hall.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Robert de Gresle statue at Manchester Town Hall.jpg. 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. — Diannaa (talk) 00:38, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

which St. Peter's Church in London?

Hi, at article Karl Wilhelm von Meister, in this edit you added a link to St. Peter's Church which currently goes to a disambiguation page that lists a dozen or more St. Peter's Churches in London. And apparently the related article Leila Trapmann now also links to the disambiguation page, which I presume is also due to an edit by you. Since your sources are off-line, it's not easily feasible for disambiguation-focused editors to figure out which church is meant. Could you possibly please address this by making more specific links? Or by delinking, and saying they were married in "one of the St. Peter's Churches in London" say, instead. FYI, the issue is raised to disambiguation-focused editors within today's version of the wp:Daily Disambig workpage. --Doncram (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi there. I have links online sources for the St Peters Church info located on the Library of Congress; namely newspaper excerpts from the Billings Gazette, Indianapolis Journal, the St. Paul Globe, Der Deutsche Correspondent and the New-York Tribune— of which I ultimately decided to use the online excerpt of the Billings Gazette, which I will link here: https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84036008/1900-01-26/ed-1/seq-2/
Unfortunately, I have not been able to identify which exact St. Peter's Church in London it was, so I assumed the best scenario was to link to the disambiguation page, of which I apologise for. What would be the ideal solution to resolve this matter? Pax Brittanica (talk) 14:57, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Noise Factory

Hello, thanks for the Noise Factory (group) article, brilliant :) Sorry that I reverted, it was odd or perhaps it was butterfingers but somehow I ended up at Noise Factory (Japanese game developers) and therefore thought it was a different entry :D Bylandandsea (talk) 15:16, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Not a problem, haha! Pax Brittanica (talk) 19:16, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Heald Green Ratepayers Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Heald Green Ratepayers Logo.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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:26, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of colonial governors of Connecticut, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Matthew Griswold. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:30, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
