Speedy deletion nomination of Fujifilm FinePix T-series[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Fujifilm FinePix T-series, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Madhuric (talk) 10:59, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain why you have marked this article Fujifilm FinePix T-series for speedy deletion? As it's my first article, can you explain which aspects of the wording classify it as unambiguous advertising? Thanks Seabass39 (talk) 11:41, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Hi. I think it was really just the statement "This makes them ideal for photographers wanting to travel light but not compromise on zoom range", which sounds a bit like advertising-speak - Wikipedia articles should not carry value judgments on products like that. But I disagree that the article is wholly promotional and have declined the speedy deletion request - I've slightly modified the text instead. -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:01, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)Words like "This makes them ideal for photographers wanting to travel light but not compromise on zoom range" are promotional - they read like an advertisement, not like an encyclopedia entry, which should be strictly factual, without opinions. Wikipedia is extremely sensitive to attempts to use it for advertising, and articles require a WP:Neutral point of view. Another editor has removed those words, and taken off the speedy-deletion tag.

File permission problem with File:Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} 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 on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 08:33, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I don't really understand what you are asking me to do. I have been given the rights to use the image by Fujifilm in the UK, who supplied the file to me. There are a number of other pages created in this way where images have been supplied in this way such as Fujifilm X-Pro1 and there doesn't seem to be any problem with the usage, so I have copied the same license from there. Hpe this is OK Seabass39 (talk) 08:06, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
