Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Flora Sandes in Salonika with Kara George Star medal.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 have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 13:33, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Flora Sandes in Salonika with Kara George Star medal.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 image 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 '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 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Flora Sandes images

[edit]

Hi, Cow foot. Well done on the Flora Sandes article by the way, I think it's going to be great. As for the pictures, I'm afraid I can't give much help. I find it a little confusing too. I'm not sure whether or not the copyright on any of these pictures will have expired. I don't know if these will be of any help: Wikipedia:Copyrights, Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright, Wikipedia talk:Copyrights, Wikipedia talk:FAQ/Copyright. If none of these pictres are considered free, (ie. they are non-free) then I think that one picture would probably be permissible in the article, as long as it has a proper fair use rationale. If that's the case, I can help you with a rationale. It can be argued that if there are no free images of Sandes, and no hope of getting any since she is dead, that a non-free picture could be used in the article. Anyway, I suggest maybe asking someone at one of the talkpages above or at the Wikipedia:Image copyright help desk. --BelovedFreak 14:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, well if you choose one picture you want to keep, I will help you with the rationale. Shouldn't be a problem. By the way, don't forget to sign your messages on talkpages, by putting 4 tildes (like this: ~~~~). That will make your name & a timestamp appear. Oh and also, as you're creating articles (and I like the ones you've started so far by the way!) try & provide at least 1 reference to start with, and make it clear why the subject is important. Of course, it doesn't have to be a perfect article straight away, not by a long shot, but if it isn't immediately clear that the subject is notable and verifiable, with links to reliable sources, new articles often risk getting speedily deleted. And we don't want that! --BelovedFreak 15:12, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I picked the one of Flora with her medal, when she was younger. I've filled in a fair use rationale, which will hopefully do the trick. I also made the image a lower resolution, as that's more acceptable. I don't know where you scanned the image from, so could you go to the image page and fill in the name of the book under "Source"? And don't worry, wikipedia can be very confusing at first, but you'll soon get the hang of it.--BelovedFreak 15:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
PS. Don't worry about the other images, they'll be deleted anyway in about a week.--BelovedFreak 15:52, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:The Lovely Sergeant by Alan Burgess.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:The Lovely Sergeant by Alan Burgess.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:36, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Coventry's Underground River- The River Sherbourne.JPG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Coventry's Underground River- The River Sherbourne.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:08, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
