Thanks for uploading File:ESPN magazine cover.png. 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.

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).

DYK for Research Works Act
On 15 January 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Research Works Act, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Research Works Act proposed in the U.S. House of Representatives would ban open access mandates for federally funded research? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Research Works Act.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Erich Segal Photo
Hello, I'm contacting you with regards to the profile photo on the article page for Erich Segal. His family have asked me carry out some changes to his official website (http://www.erichsegal.com) and also to update his image on the wikipedia page. As a replacement they have asked for me to use this image: http://www.erichsegal.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Erich_Segal-721x1024.jpg However as I don't have the ability to upload an image to wikipedia I was wondering if you would be able to do it for me please? The image is owned by the Erich Segal Estate and is copyright free. Thanks in advance, Adam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Animalraw (talk • contribs) 15:45, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Adam,
- It won't be difficult to change the image. I think your best bet would be to email Wikipedia's OTRS volunteers at photosubmission@svgwikimedia.org and tell them what you told me. If the image is copyright free, it could also be uploaded using the upload wizard at Wikimedia Commons. After the image is uploaded, changing the image on the article is a snap.

Non-free use disputed for File:Erich_Segal.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Erich_Segal.jpg. Unfortunately, I think that you have not provided a proper rationale for using this image under "fair use". 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:Non-free 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. Note that the image description page must include the exact name or a link to each article the image is used in and a separate rationale for each one. (If a link is used, automated processes may improperly add the related tag to the image. Please change the fair use template to refer to the exact name, if you see this warning.)
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thank you. Sreejith K (talk) 12:14, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
