Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Editing

[edit]

Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks!

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thanks, and happy editing.

WP:CITE


When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:08, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


  • OK, thanks for filling in the edit summary; the trouble is that your edit looks like simple vandalism. You remove an image without saying why, and change the lead so that it's both ungrammatical less inaccurate. Why? --Mel Etitis (Talk) 22:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you think that the cover is incorrect, you need to say so (and say why); the same for other edits. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 22:48, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  1. It can't be just a song, not a single (how could it enter singles charts otherwise?).
  2. If it isn't the second, what is it? There seems to have been one (and only one) other single from that album. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 23:03, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not asking about the cover any more, you've answered that. However, if this is in the charts, I take it that it's a single; as there's only been one other single, then I take it that it's the second single. It may be that my conslucion is false because I've missed something, but you won't say what it is. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 14:13, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

[edit]

Please fill in the edit summary; it's requested by the guidelines, and is a courtesy to other editors. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:57, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Calendar girl.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Calendar girl.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 20:17, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free use disputed for Image:Chapter 3.jpg

[edit]
Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Chapter 3.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

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 05:10, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Hit em up style.jpg

[edit]

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) 23:42, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mary mary.jpg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:Mary mary.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:25, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
