Orphaned non-free image File:Norges kart screen shot.jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Norges kart screen shot.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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 22:07, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Future troll?[edit]

Please stop adding uncited things like this. You can't just add blanket statements like that without a reference. For what it's worth, I've never heard about trolls living in cairns, or cairns being "future trolls"(?).

By "Norwegians trust that trolls are living in these stones", did you really mean that "Norwegians believe that trolls are living in stones like these? Either way, that would need a strong reference if it was to be added to any article. Manxruler (talk) 01:00, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there is the tradition. You can see a lot of new stone pyramids made like it all over Norway Foledman (talk) 14:47, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't dispute that there are cairns like that all around the place, and that people are making more of them. However, what is your reference for Norwegians believing that the cairns have trolls in them? Because that's what you've claimed.

Your exact statement was: "Norwegians trust that trolls are living in these stones", while adding a picture called "Future troll". What's your source for Norwegians believing cairns to have trolls in them/the cairns being future trolls? Manxruler (talk) 17:05, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The teacher of Norsk course (65 years old) told us this legend (about the spirit of troll that would live in new pyramids and help the builder), maybe we can find proves in Internet Foledman (talk) 03:54, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There would have to be a proper reference if something like that was to be included, not just something some teacher told you. Manxruler (talk) 04:52, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Norges kart screen shot.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Norges kart screen shot.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:

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.
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. Stefan2 (talk) 21:07, 10 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
