Fix Redirects to Lost Colony Game

[edit]

Looks like we were editing at the same time! You can't put more than one #REDIRECT on a single page. In cases where we have one overwhelming use (Lost Colony for Roanoke) we make a disambugation page such as Lost Colony (disambiguation) and put the list of uses there. Then we link it from the main article with a template, and point the redirect there. Ehheh 15:53, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Cortana in Pain Group.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Cortana in Pain Group.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. 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 13:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Cortana in Pain Group.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Cortana in Pain Group.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) 04:59, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
