Image copyright problems

Shakirfan, a large number of images you're uploading are tagged as public domain when they are clearly not. None of the pictures for which you've said that the website disclaimer says they are public domain say anything of the sort; some say "no copyright information available," which is a very different thing than public domain, and others indicate copyright. Please do not upload any more images until we've got this sorted out. You've already been warned extensively on this talk page about this problem. If you continue to upload images under misleading licenses, we'll have no choice but to block you from editing. Thank you. Chick Bowen 00:45, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

I also notice that you've removed copyright violation notices from some images. Please don't do that; you must wait until the possible copyright violation is investigated. Thanks. Chick Bowen 01:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

The disclaimers that you're talking about say, "The photos and information contained on this site are considered to be in the public domain, as they were found in various places on the Internet." That something is found on the internet does not indicate that it is public domain. The sites are wrong to assume that an image is public domain; on the contrary, an image is copyrighted by default unless it's explicitly released by the photographer. We have much stricter rules about copyrights at Wikipedia than these sites do. Please read Wikipedia:Copyrights before uploading any more images. Thank you. Chick Bowen 01:44, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Charlie_cotton.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Charlie_cotton.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you have questions about copyright tagging of images, post on Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags or User talk:Carnildo/images. 02:27, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Copyrighted image

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Image:Amy_Jo_Johnson.jpg article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. --Yamla 17:01, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging for Image:Amanda_holden.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Amanda_holden.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Unspecified source for Image:Leonor Varela.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Leonor Varela.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. Yamla 14:34, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been blocked for 48 hours. You are still blatantly violating Wikipedia's copyright and fair-use guidelines. Please refrain from uploading any more images until you fix the substantial problems with the images you have already uploaded. --Yamla 14:35, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Deewane Huye Paagal movie poster.jpg

You said: "Hi, Yamla I noticed yesterday that you tagged this image with a fair use dispute tag. I added the source from where I got this image and added a bit of a rationale. Could you please explain what needs to added to it if it is not detailed or is it OK the way it is."

You are almost there now. See Help:Image page for more details about fair-use rationales. Really, the only thing I'd like to see added is that you are using this low-resolution scan to illustrate the movie in question on Deewane Huye Pagal and that all other uses require additional rationale. Mostly, just make clear that you are only justifying it for that one page. Feel free to remove the fair-use disputed box once you've done so. Thanks! --Yamla 14:30, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Deleted image

Image:Amitabh Bachchan in Deewaar.jpg has been uploaded. This film screenshot was being used solely to depict the person in blatant violation of the image license terms. Additionally, you removed the "fairuse disputed" tag without providing a detailed fair-use rationale. Please refrain from this sort of action in the future. --Yamla 14:41, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Image:Samantha Mathis.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Samantha Mathis.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. 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 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. --Chowbok ☠ 18:15, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kate Ritchie.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Kate Ritchie.jpg. 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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

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 fair use images 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. _JD^talk 23:22, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

WP:CSD

I've delisted Image:Helen Flanagan.jpg from CSD, as it is in use on at least one article. If you still want it deleted pelase update the articles first, then it will eb removable as an orphaned fair-use image. Thanks, — xaosflux ^Talk 17:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Dhoom 4

I have removed your speedy deletion G7 tag from Dhoom 4. I don't see where the author has requested deletion, and G7 can only be applied if the original author is the only editor of the article. Thanks, Gwernol 01:44, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

RE:Spin-offs

Yeah, you're right, they are spin-offs- feel free to add them to the list! Trampik e y ^{(talk to me)(contribs)} 21:41, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

But not to the episode spin-off section. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:23, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

OK. Should it be included on Other Spin-offs section? Shakirfan 23:07, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Were they shown on television or just released to video? if they were on tv, add them to the spin-off episodes section. if they were released straight to video, they don't belong in the television spin-offs article. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 21:08, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Actually they are included in the EastEnders Merchandise article so they do not need to be included in the spin-offs article as it says they were released on video. Funny that I had never seen that article before even though it was created ages ago. Shakirfan 21:36, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Richard Cole.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Richard Cole.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. ~ Bigr Tex 21:53, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
