Orphaned fair use image (Image:Lgvx8500.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Lgvx8500.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — Indon (reply) — 10:57, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Image:Lgvx8500.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lgvx8500.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. howcheng {chat} 20:59, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

California Assoc of Legal Investigators

I removed your link on the private investigators page because the section you added it to is for International and Nationwide Associations. A seperate page with a list of state, provincial and local associations might be a good idea and probably within WP's global perspective. PeetMoss 12:14, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Please dont add junk to my pages without permission. thanks --Peterpowell360 10:10, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

1&1

I removed the template you added, because 1&1 isn't an ICANN accredited registrar. They're a reseller of Schlund. I did post stuff on Talk:1&1. GreenJoe 15:12, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Xchat-Logo.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Xchat-Logo.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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. ShakespeareFan00 11:59, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

something

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article should be deleted, then please place {{hangon}} on the page (please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag) and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your recent edit appears to have added incorrect information, and has been reverted or removed. All information in the encyclopedia must be verifiable in a reliable published source. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them.

Ship-related templates

In the last couple of days, you have edited a lot of ship-related templates, apparently to convert them to use {{Navbox}}. I appreciate the effort you are putting into this, but as you are changing both the appearance and in some cases the actual content of the templates, I would appreciate if you would post at WP:SHIPS explaining what you are doing before continuing. We would like to see the templates improved, but we need to make sure that ship conventions aren't inadvertently removed (such as where you've removed italics on ship names and ship class names). Thanks. Maralia 19:04, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I appreciate your work converting ship-related templates to use navbox, and I understand that you removed the italics because you thought they were wrong, but it was explained to you at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ships#new templates that the prior italicization on these templates was correct. Nearly three weeks later, you have made no effort to fix errors that you created in over 100 templates that are transcluded in thousands of ship articles. Today I went through your user contributions to find each ship-related template that you edited, individually re-italicize every ship name, and research each ship's class name to determine whether it should be italicized as well - multiply that by 100, and take into account that I did all this work just to return templates to their state prior to your edits, and you'll probably understand my frustration.

Please use better judgment next time you are making sweeping changes to many templates by asking for clarification before changing existing formatting. Again, I appreciate that you put a lot of effort into the navbox changes, but the next time you take on a large project, you should be prepared to take responsibility for any errors you make by fixing them yourself.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Disturbia Frontcover.gif)

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).
